Virginia Governor Answers
Lynch Query

ginia, 1930) Since the passage of
this law in Virginia, we have not
had a lynching in this state.
Il believe that other states
might well consider the advisibili-
ty Of adopting a similar law. This
is the answer to a federal anti
lynching law. 1t is a matter for the
states to handle, but it should be
handled effectively"

tial district only to drive the others
out instead of improving the neigh
borhood in which he has been and
draw others unto him. The chang
es divert the income from the race.
The Negro newspapers headline
him as another great man, and he
is really great" The history OF
the Negro shows, however, that the
race could have got along very
well without some of its great
men,"
A statistical study of the back
ground of those Negroes who have
accumulated something shows that
the majority of them are persons
who never earned as much as a
hundred dollars a month until
they built something for them
selves. They sat down in the be-
ginning and figured out mathema-
tically how they would have to
live to build up rather than go
downward, and they conformed
accordingly. They did not need
very much knowledge of arithmetic
to understand that a man who
spends more than he makes will
never accumulate anything. They
did not move in the Exclusive So
cial circles" They attend church,
send their children to Sunday
School, and keep them away from
degrading company. In many of
these cases they were not able to
send their sons and daughters to
college to learn to smoke cigaret-
ties and drink liquor, but their
home training was worth more to
them than years Of study in the
best universities.
Then on the other hand, | look
at those Negroes who have had
greater opportunity l often find
record to the contrary. Large sal
rates have meant large spent for
those things for which the child
like crave. More money thus un-
expectedly or occasionally acquir-
ed means more high living" ill
health, and untimely death. Chill
dren brought up in such an atmos-
phere have gone the same way
downward. In other words, the
few Negroes singled out for the
high salaries given those to direct
the Negroes in the ghetto have, as
a rule, closed rather than opened
the door Of opportunity for their
people.

Richmond, Va.--(C) Governor
George G. Perry has given 10 Cal
wins Newspaper Service a copy of
his reply to DR.. James E. Shepard,
president of the North Carolina
College, Durham, who wrote him
recently urging that the Governor
take a strong stand against lynch
ing.
The letter, dated Dec. 4, last,
reads: 81 am in receipt of your
letter of the End, and have read
the same with much interest.
Law enforcement is essential to
our future security but the en-
forcement of the law must be left
to the courts. Whenever the mob
takes the law into its own hands,
it is a direct defiance of law and
should be severely punished, just
as other crimes are punished.
I'm regard to the crime of lynch
ing, we have an anti-lynching law
in Georgia that was enacted in
1928. (See Section 4427 (c) to 4427

NEW YORK, Sept. 17.-steel
ingot output has returned to Y
per cent Of the country's capacity
from 10 per cent last week. In
coming business, while running
behind shipments, is again on the
upgrade, and there is ample as
Surance Of a continuance of the
present rate Of production, or a
little better, to the end of Octo-
Der at least, according to Iron
Age.
Business in the heavy products,
principally those used in building
construction, has experienced a
lull, which may be temporary in
view of the large amount of work
ahead, but the lighter products,
particularly sheets are in ex-
ceptionally good demand, with
prospective additions to backlogs
as the motor car industry pre-
pares for volume production of
1887 models. Large sheet ton
nages are expected from some of
the automobile companies this
week,
