Missouri Jurist Denounces
Lynching OF St. Joseph Man
Letting Down of Bars For Lynchers Will
Endanger Laws Of Country, He States

st. Louis, Mo- (CNS)-Judge j.
v. Gaddy, of the Circuit Court at
st. Joseph told a special grand
jury last week that every person
who was active in the mob that
lynched Lloyd Warner, Negro
youth. the night of November %, Is
guilty OF murder in the first de-
gree
The jurist called upon the grand
jury to return Indictments.
1T is necessary to punish guilty
members of that mob, II we are to
protect ourselves against the
danger of the mob" Judge Gaddy
said.
The man who pulled off the Jail
dooor ar any man who helped TO
break into the Jail, is just as gull
~ as the man who placed the rope
around Warmers neck"
Warner. charged with attacking
white women, was seized after
the mob had stormed the county
jail fir several hours. He was
beaten, stabbed, hanged TO tree
near the courthouse and his body
burned before a crowd OF 5000.
Every man who was active I'm
that mob Is guilty OF murder In
the FIRST degree. and should be In
dicted. Judge caddy charged the
grand jury, which is made up o.
prominent citizens.
Detroit tribune. [volume] (Detroit, Mich.) 1933-1933, 1933-12-23

The danger of the mob lies Ia
the letting down of individual ro-
sponsibility, said the jurist. IL
wasn't a desire TO administer
Justice which sent the mob against
the jail. 1t was hate, the passion
that engenders any murder.
When you find the real leaders Of
that mob. you will find men of not
much higher moral standards than
he man they murdered. If you had
been there that night, / doubt If
you could have picked IL men from
that mob who would have had the
courage to convict Warner as mem
bers of jury In a court OF Justice
Their action was an assault on the
institutions you pay for TO admin
lister justice.
w. o. Sawyers, Assistant State
Attorney General has filed charges
against five men as leaders of the
mob. Aaron Levin, junk dealer, and
John zook, former policeman, are
charged with first degree murder.
Jcs Davidson and Raymond Young,
truckers. are charged with malic-
ious destruction OF property, It be-
ing alleged their truck was used
in pulling down the jail door. Will
liam Carton is charged with NAL
icious destruction OF property, and
Carl Fischer is accused OF having

Unique Easter
Service Planned

A pagan temple near Dayton, said
to have been reared before the birth
of Jesus, again this year will be the
seen of sunrise Easter services.
Known as the Miamisburg mound,
the historic eminence stands near the
town from which it received its name
"a conical work 70 feet in height,
$50 feet in circumference at the base.
Here, on clear days, small boys,
romping over the ancient monument
to a lost race, may see for miles
across the rugged river highlands, as
far as Dayton, 10 miles away.
Probably nowhere in the Americas,
archaeologists say, is there shrine
to compare in age with the Miamis-
burg mound. 1t is estimated to be
from 1000 to 5000 years DID,
