II il were not for the work our

II would be paying enormous tribute

thousand people paid less than pen

New York World:
"The New York World remarks that
President Harding and the Republican

"This is not altogether true
"One thing, however, the Harding
administration is making mess of the
Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill. Sixty-four
lynchings last year, is the record of the
mob's toll. A president and a congress
pledged to pass anti-lynching legisla-

if no such pledge existed. The house
passed the bill and the senate pigeon
holed it from January, 1922, to date.
"The passage of the Dyer bill is up

MITCHELL'S BANK
Will REOPEN SOON
SAYS LATE REPORT

Richmond, Va, Aug 18.-The Me-
chanics Savings Bank, John Mitchell,
president, which was closed will re-
open for business in a few days, ac-
cording to information given The AS
sociated Negro Press.
The white banks of Richmond, as
a group, agreed through the clearing
house association to put up any
amount needed to reopen the bank, up
to the amount of 100000, provided
the necessary security was offered.
President Mitchell and his associates
have assured them that the security
is available.
Mr.. Mitchell, it is stated will take
personal charge, devoting full time to
its management.
Not only the white banks and fin
ancial interests of the city have come
to the assistance of the bank, but col
ored banks, business men and the pub
lie general have volunteered their aid
in any way it should be needed.
The Mechanics Savings Bank, ac-
cording to President Mitchell, has en-
pie assets to discharge all the banks
obligations.
There is no evidence or indication
of anything irregular in the manage
ment of the banks affairs. The fact
that the bank held real estate contrary
to the rules of the department result
ed in a recent order requiring an ad-
justment of this condition, to meet
with the banks real estate was con-
veyed the Bonded Realty Co., whose
officers of the bank and mortgage
notes taken by the bank for the same.
There were $4,000 of these notes,
which appeared to the department not
to be secured by real estate assets.
Before Mr.. Mitchell could reach a
satisfactory understanding with the
department as to the status of these
notes the order to close was issued.
