HON. GEORGE A. ScHILLING
COMES BACK AT JULIUS F.
TAYLOR IN RELATION TO
HANGING MRS. NITTI
The Following Communication Speaks
For Itself
Julius F. Taylor, Editor of
The Broad AK, Chicago.
August 20, 1928.

Many thanks for the very generous
consideration given to my article and
the kindly feelings you expressed to-
wards me personally. But in your
final comments you miss the mark
and you fail to get at the heart Of the
question.
l do not claim that this woman is
innocent. do not claim as some do
that because she is Italian she should
not be hung on Oct, II, because on
the same date another Italian, Chris
topher Columbus, discovered America
The leniency generally shown by II
men acting as jurors trying women
for crime is not because men lack
courage or because they are weak or
because the women being tried are all
handsome making goo-goo eyes at the
men while the trial is going on.
There must be deeper reason than
his. and this | have tried in show BY
citing the conduct of male dogs, cats
and buffaloes among the lower animals
towards the female and then cite the
conduct Of men seeking to protect the
woman and child during war and final
" that when the Titanic went down
only women and girls-were saved with
only enough sailors to safeguard them
Had Mrs. Nitti been tried alone with
equal damaging evidence against her
| doubt whether the same jury would
have brought in the verdict they did;
but the jury found itself in a jam be-
cause they. felt that they could not
bring in a verdict TO hang the man
and to give the woman lesser pen
atty. Unless you can show that the
lenient conduct Of men toward women
being tried for crime is due to causes
other than this primitive instinct, an
instinct stronger than the law and all
Of our conventional rules which al
ways seeks throughout all life to pro-
tect the mother Of the species.
Very sincerely.
GEORGE "A. SCHILLING.

PRESIDENT COOLIDGE MAY
BACK FEDERAL ACTION
AGAINST THE MOB
Administration May Support Dyer
Anti-Lynching Bin In Next
Congress

Recent ut ak of mobism
throughout the United States have
caused President Calvin Cooligde and
other government officials seriously TO
consider the advisability Of backing the
Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill in the next
Congress and Of taking federal action
against the mob, according to- a cor
respondent in a Washington newspa-
per. Representative Dyer has assured
the National Association for the Adj
vancement of Colored People that he
will introduce his bill on the opening
day Of the new session of the Con-
gress and information reaching the N.
A.AP.C. confirms the impression that
it will be one of the main issues before
the national legislature.
Washington reports state that Pres
ident Coolidge is considering not only
the Dyer Anticipating Bill, but also
an extension of its provisions whereby
it would apply to all organizations of
masked men who take the law Into
their own hands"
Representative Dyer is quoted as fol-
lows:
II have talked to President Coolidge
about my bill and | am preparing
memorandum for his consideration.
Because of the plank in the RepubE-
can platform which pledged this legis-
lation, ! expect the President will sup
port its enactment.
Il will reintroduce my bill in prac-
tically the same form as it passed the
House last year. 1t will apply to all
mobs, consisting Of three or more men,
but in its present form would provide
punishment only when the victim is
killed. 1t applies to the Ku KIux
Khan as well as to any other body Of
men"

CATHOLICS HELPING
NEGROES
Ten Million Dollars Given-For Edu-
cation Among Negro People

"A recent statement from high Cath
Ole authority estimates the number
Of Negroes without church ties at g.
100000; and the archbishops Of Balti-
more, New York, and Philadelphia are
calling for large sums for work among
this group.
A writer in America, leading Cath
Ole publication. urges the assumption
of this task BY the Knights Of Column
bus. This order, with its membership
of 100000, could, it is claimed, easily
raise in two years the 100000
needed to finance the work along both
community and religious lines. The
card-indexing Of all Negro non-church
members is urged as a preparation for
propaganda. Each city or town, it il
said, could be districted, and put under
the charge Of X Of c. district COM
mittees. The knights" we are told
could 60 even further. They could
seek out, get acquainted with, and in
numerous ways show interest in the
welfare OF these people"
One thing friends and enemies Of
Catholicism are agreed upon: it is q
church which takes UP big problems
on 4 big scale, and notably where
those problems concern the poor, the
suffering, and similar handicapped
folk. The proposed movement will be
watched with interest by many out
side the church immediately con
cerned

THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
FOR THE ADVANCEMENT
OF THE COLORED
PEOPLE
By DR.. M. A. Majors

The National Association for the
Advancement of the Colored People
presents itself to the sober minded
members Of our race almost with i'm
peliing force In the fourteen years
Of its existence it has done a most
commendable thing. Its pressure upon
the Supreme Court has been felt as a
mighty power. 1t has put segrega-
ton of races out of business forever
Its potency has commanded the spirit
Of the legislative and judicial system
Of our government, and in living let.
tiers Of fire it has impressed upon the
minds OF the nation that the Negro
will fight to the last ditch for his
rights as a man and citizen. While
IT has been making itself felt all over
this broad land it has made DR.. w. E,
b. Dubois, its founder, very great
man. Its operations open wide a field
for such men as ]. Weldon Johnson,
and Prof. William Pickens and host
of younger stalwarts Of the race. For
real service it is the most far reach
ing and beneficial organization ever
instituted to foster racial interests.
Its very pressing necessity should
inspire the hearts Of every man and
woman of the race to contribute in
no very small way to its support and
maintenance. Justice is a great mis-
sion. Our people are in great need
of having justice enforced; and the
Association should comprise the en-
tire Negro race. 1t ought to have a
million dollars subscribed speedily to
carry forward its herculean fight in
every state Of this great Union to bat
tie down the ugly hand of prejudice
that is clutching at the threats of
every member Of the race.
A few nights ago we were at meet
ing to hear the great orator Dean Will
liam Pickens. He told a mastery
story Of the great potentialtiy of the
Association. Our hearts burned with
pride as we sat under the soothing
eloquence of this black son of our race
as he poured out wisdom and counsel
to his brothers. AS we listened to the
story Of the great cases that had been
carried up to the Supreme Court and
the favor won in the behalf Of our OBJ
pressed race Mr.. Dubois became a
master spirit Of the present civiliza-
ton; and it brings a comfort and a
JOY that dehes our meagre ability to
analyZe, or our feeble efforts to de-
scribe. Long live the National Asso-
citation and may God get into the
hearts Of all Of our people to rally to
the standard, and give millions of dol
lars to the great cause for which il
was organized
