1928 LYNCHINCS
29 FEWER THAN
PREVIOUS YEAR
Florida, Mississippi Lead
List With Eight For
Each

r. r. Morton, principal Of the
famous Tuskogee Normal and In
Iustrial institute for the training
of colored men and women, and
located in Alabama. has released
the following interesting figures
regarding lvnchings in various parts
of the United States during 1928.
.he striking feature Of the repor,
Is that the number Of lvnchingS in
1928 was % less than IN 1922, a
r,ost encouraging indication, say
law officials.
Tho ST; emcnt compiled by Mon
roe n. Work follows.
- find that there were 2Sper-
sons lvnched ii 1923. This is 90
less than the number 81 for the year
1922. Thirteen of the persons lynch
Cd were taken from the hands of
the law seven from jails and six
from officers of tnc .uw ontside of
.lails
1--WE also find that here were
Is instances in which Officers of
the Law prevented lynchings. Four
women, three white ana one color
ed, were among those thus saved.
six Of these TrCventlons OF lynch
iugS were in northern states and 4C.
in sou. hern states. In 81 of the
cases the prisoners were removed or
the guards augmented or other pre-
cautions taken. In the rine other
instances, armed force was used to
icpel the would-bc lynchers. In
eight instances during the year per
SONS charged VIII being connected
with lynching mobs were brought
TO trial. Of the 80 persons thus be.
fore the courts only two were sent
to the penitentiary.
"Of the % persons lynched in
1928, 26 were negroes and two were
whites; two of the former were wo-
men. Seven or one -ourth of those
rut to death were charged with rape
or attempted rape; one of the vic
inns was burned to death; one w&s
turned. The charge against the one
Put to death ard then the body was
burned to death vas murder.
The nine states in which lynch
iHgs occurred and the number III
each state are as follows: Arkansas,
two; Florida, eight; Georgia, four;
Louisiana, one; Mississippi, eight;
Missouri, one; Oklahoma, one; Tex
as, two; Eirginia, one.

By EDWARD NcRDMAN
Commissioner Of Mar.cS3 for Wi:

MADISON, WIS, Jan. 3.-Agri-
crhural cooperation nae grown iu
the last few years with an unusual
rapidity.
it has come to stay and it is
firmly implanted on American soil.
\ very important reason for this is
that the Investigations of the of
ficial marketing agencies have fur
rished definite facts in regard to
jhe existing marketing practices
which enables farmers to form Il
fairly definite estimate as 10 the
chances of success of their prospee-
i've cooperative associations.
One of the principal objects of
cooperation is to replace inefficient
methods of marketing by more eef
ficient ones. The data that is await
able us Il result of studies and in
vestigations make ii possible to
Judge whether u particular market,
ing function can be more efficient
ly performed by a cooperative or.
ganization or whether i. should b.
loft to the initiative of private
middlemen. In this way many fail
IrcS are avoided.
Big Business Tone
The result Of all tnis is that the
county is covered with 4 network
Of successful local cooperative as
scciations and marketing fedora
tons. Census figures show that a
business of $806,CO0,0Oo in coopera-
tive marketing and buying was
done through farmers organizations
Imperial Valley press., 1924-01-03
COOPERATION GREATEST AID
IN SOLVING FARM ERS
MANY WOES AND PROBL EMS;

in 1919. One farm out of every l.
in the United States marketed agrl
cultural products Through farmers
organizations. and one farm out of
every 20 reported cooperative pur
chasing of supplies.
The total number of farms selling
products through agricultural co
operative associations was 511,333.
Sales through the farmers market
ing organizations ran up to $721,-
$4,000, which is an average of
SLIP for each farm reporting. The
most important products go mar
keted were grain, milk, cream, fruit
and truck crops. Since the census
figures were published many more
cooperative associations were or
ganized, such as the great tobacco
pools in the five most important
bacco-producing states. 7 Sc
pools control from 65 to S5 per cent
Of the tobacco raised in their res
pcctive state.
Other Things Needed
While cooperation is an inv;L-
uable factor 50 far as the improve
mcnt of the economic and social
condition of farmers is concerned it
as far from being, as many people
lclieve, a panacea for I'll farm ills.
There are many forces at work in
modern society thwarting the good
effect Of cooper. lion as well as all
other legitimate business activities.
Until farmers understand and ap.
ply the remedies that are needed to
cure these basic evils they cannot
hope 10 bring about n permanent
