FEDERAL ANTI.LYNCH BILL
SHOULD BE ENACTED,
DECLARES THE SENATOR

represents red-blooded American
ism; but in cowing juries, defy
ing judges, and burning down
courthouses, he represents only red
ruin and the destruction of all
laws.
Senator Wagner pointed out the
helplessness of the states to deal
with lynching and recounted the
struggle to have the Costigan Wag-
ner bill enacted into law. He dealt
with a number of objections raised
to the bill by its opponents and
took occasion to strike at some per-
son and institutions who have
raised the question of constitu-
tionality.
Il do not question the sincerity
of some of those objections. AT
the same time. / cannot refrain
from expressing my protest at the
increasing frequency with which
our great Constitution, conceived
in liberty, is used improperly as
shield for low wages, for long
hours, and for every form Of hui
man exploitation and unhuman
persecution.
I'm the history of this country,
he concluded, mo campaign for
civil justice has been waged in
vain. Public opinion in the United
States will never be satisfied until
Judge Lynch has received his
death sentence. To that end, /

a federal law will enlist an ever

ing people, until they form an I'M

Says Mob Violence
Threatens Nation
AS Well AS Negroes

MISUNDERSTANDING his con-
tinuing efforts to secure the enact
ment of a federal anti-lynching
law, Senator Robert f. Wagner Of
New York delivered a dramatic adj
dress TO a huge crowd attending
the closing mass meeting of the
9th annual conference of the n. A.
A e. p. here last Sunday after
noon.
Beginning his address with a
reference To the Fourth of July as
a commemoration of mans strug-
gle for true liberty, Senator Wag-
ner scored the forces in America
which are denying liberty, nullify-
ing government, and reverting to
barbarity.
Every thinking American, he
declared, regardless Of creed, col
or, station, or section, must be
terrified by the tide of mob vio-
lence rising from the wells OF pre-
JUDGE and discrimination. There
is no single expression that will
cover the extravaganza and variety
of all these horrible crimes; but
there is one word 'lynching".
After sketching briefly lynching
as an exhibition of primitive bru-
tally, the speaker turned to the
social implications of the crime,
saying:
There is no concealing the fact
that this is directed pri-
marily against the Negro race,
which has been the victim of ten
out of every eleven cases since the
World War. Every time a Negro
thus perishes at the stake or by
rope, the Emancipation Proclama-
ton is suspended and civil equali-
ty Is reduced to a political myth.
This discriminatory disregard for
civil rights is breeding a just and
unanswerable resentment among
over 100000 people in the United
States, who live under and not a.
part from the Constitution, and who
have demonstrated their willing
ness to die heroically in it's defense.
But it is not the welfare of the
Negro race alone that Is threaten
ed; 1t is rather the foundations Of
all society that are being under
mined. Violating all American j.
deals, the crime of lynching is a de-
fiant assault upon organized Co
vernment. The lyncher pretends
that he is impatient with the laws
delay; but he gives the lie to his
own words when he drags his vic
tins from the custody of peace Of
ficers, or snatches them from the
battered cells of jails where they
were already in the hands of JUS
tice. The lyncher pretends that he
