A copy of the above statement,
which is part of the official which
has been signed personally by more
than 1900 Southern white women,
has just come into the office Of the
Association in this city, bearing the
signatures of three chiefs of police of
South Georgia towns, four city police
men, and a sheriff and a bailiff Of
the county. The explanation is found
in the following letter to Mrs. Jessie
Daniel Ames, organizer and director
OF the Association, which throws an
interesting light upon the activities
OF the women who are promoting this
movement to rid the South of the
lynching habit:
My dear Mrs. Ames: I believe
you meant for me to get members Of
the missionary society to sign this
pledge against lynching, but I got as
many officers Of the law as / could
see to sign it l feel like they are the
ones to enforce the law and they said
in signing this pledge that the would
do their part 1t took several weeks
for me to see these men and 1 didn't
see two Of them in person, but left
the paper with their wives and they
told me their husbands were glad to
sign it Ny husband is convict war
den in this county and he said he was
opposed to lynching unless it was for
rape, but I tried to tell him that it
wasn't right to lynch undar any cir
cumstances."
A few days ago a committee Of
Louisiana women representing the
Association called upon Governor
Allen Of that state, laid before him
the Associations Indictment of lynch
ing, and asked his cooperation. The
governor pledged himself to do ev-
erything possible to prevent mob
violence and authorized them to quote
him IS saying; Il am very much OPP
posed to lynching and to all sorts
of mob violence"
A few days earlier Governor Dave
Sholtz Of Florida was waited on by
Florida members of the Association,
He assured them that if given two
hours warning, he would see to it
that no lynching should take place in
that state.
The above incidents illustrate
some of the methods employed by
the Association in building a public
conscience for the ultimate eradica-
ton Of mob violence.

One of the most difficult problems
industry and government have faced
during the past year is how to fl
nance business expansion. MANY in
dustries would like to build and i'm
prove plants, believe that conditions
justify it. But the eternal question
of securities have been floated since
Mr.. Roosevelt took office. The
stringent securities act has prevent
ed the issuance of a number that
were planned. And tremendous
governmental borrowing, through
sale of bonds, has taken about all the
investment capital the nation has
been able to provide.
Consequently, there has been talk
of direct government loans to indus
try for some time. First tangible
manifestation came on March 16,
when Jesse Jones, able RFC head and
Texas millionaire, sent a bill to the
senate. Most of the bill dealt with
routine RFC matters-buried almost
out of sight, in a subsection, was as
TIME put it, a whole new world of
government money lending"
The proposal would permit any
business to borrow RFC funds "for
the purpose of furnishing working
capital reducing and refiancing exist
ing Indebtedness Or making plant i'm
p~rovensents or requirements" In
dustries receiving loans would have
to be NRA plants, would have to en-
ploy ten or more men. The RFC
would go into general commercial
banking on an unprecedented scale.
Another and similar bill followed
Mr.. Jones' proposal. 1t is different
in this respect-while it would make
possible direct government loans to
industry, it would not create so com
plete a banking structure. Its
method would be set up intermediate
credit banks in each Federal Reserve
District which would discount or pur-
chase longterm obligations issued by
companies to produce working CAPT
tai.
Industry's reaction to either bill is
liable to be mixed. Executives would
like the money, and thew need it. But
there win unquestionably be consider
able fear that it would give govern
ment a remarkable opportunity to
further cement its control over in
dustrial management.
Since the war major labor strikes
have been almost unknown. Now
spurred by the NRA with its collec-
tive bargaining guarantee for labor,
the unions are out to organize
American industry 100 yer cent.
Result is that the entire automo-
bile industry, which has always been
open-shop, is threatened with a shut
down. A. F. of l.. Automobile
Workers Union demanded a 20 per
cent wage increase-and recognition.
The National Automobile Chamber of
Commerce replied that it would ad-
wise it's members to cut hours from
40 to So a week and raise wages to
compensate, even though pay is now
higher than it was in 1929, when
changes in cost Of living are con-
sidered. Ford, which is not a mem
Der of the Chamber, announced re-
sumption of the $500 a day mini
mum, bringing the entire industry
into line so far as better pay is con-
cerned.
When it came to recognition, how
ever matters were not so easy. Gen
eral Motors said that its employe-
representation plan, through which

It is our experience that the
members Of this organization who
FIGURE are the ones who make
the most money. Among the many
royalties we send out, there are
some that are better than others.
We find that the successful ones
CHOOSE the better royalties, mere
ly because they can read inteIli-
gently and can figure the relative
value of royalties.

NV OTHING more revolution
airy has come out of the
new deal" than the
change in public financing.
Before the depression, this coun-
try was dominated by so-called
bankers. The H'banker" was not
truly banker. Instead, he was
merely a promoter who created no
new wealth but who preyed upon
those who developed natural re-
sources and upon the investing pub
lie.
1t was these bankers who
flooded the country with worth
less stocks and bonds in compan-
les capitalized beyond any posi-
bihty Of profitable operation for
the stockholders and bondholders.
These bankers" were the same
type Of money changers as those
who were driven from the temple
by Jesus Christ. These modern
money changers had built up their
own standing in the community by
seating themselves upon the al
tars of the temple convincing
gullible public that 1.-THE banker
can do no wrong and believing
it themselves.
1t was apparent to any who took
his pencil in hand that the insti-
tutions bearing these heavy stock
and bond issues could not pay divi-
dends that would net a fair re-
turn. The public bought on the
whispered ''tip" that the price
was going up. The idea was to sell
at a profit-and these stock pro-
moters knew that the public won't
sell as long as the price is going up.
When the price started down, the
money changers sold short" and
catipulted prices down so fast that
the unfortunate public could not
dispose of its over-priced stock
thereby teaching this generation
something about the true motives
of Wall Street bankers
Then came the federal govern
ment with a federal securities act
requiring one thing of promoters:
WRITE 1T DOWN"
No longer can a GLIDE salesman
promise the investor the moon, Sat
urn and chunk of the Milky
Way and thereby induce him to IN
vest. The government doesn't guar
antee the merits of the proposition.
All the securities act requires is
that it be WRITTEN DOWN and

MAKE GOOD on these same rep
reservations.
Let the promoter not only write
it down but let him send it through
the United States mails, making
him subject to the laws of the
land-which laws are adequate to
protect the public from heartless
money barons. We are informed that
many of the Wall Street bankers
win no longer send prospectus
through the mail When anyone
calls for prospectus, it goes out
by messenger-Or not at all
HVHHRE was q time when pub
lie financing was done thru
the mail. When doc" Cook
went to Jail for using the mails to
defraud, this "tipster' system a.
rose. Financing thru the mails be-
came thing Of the past. Oddly
enough, people thought that any
thing that came through the mail
was tainted-the work of another
Doc Cook. That gave rise to the
GLIDE salesman who could whisper
but who could never be held ac-
countable. The postal laws were
frightened up but the bankers
did not use the mail.
But all this has changed with
the coming of the new deal. The
GLIDE salesman catches an investor
on the corner and tells him about
proposition. Everyone is interest
ed in an opportunity to make money
so everyone will listen. However,
after the salesman gets through,
the modern investor will conclude
the interview with this statement.
That sounds fine. Will you
please write that out and mail it
