Maryland Mob
Drags Women
From Sheriff
STATE POLICE RESCUE WON
EN- FROM WOULD-BE
LYNCHERS

Stockholm, Md, Feb. 14.-Anar-
chy reigned here today as 500
armed white men forced open the
local Jail and took a grown woman,
Mrs. Marcie Collick, and her a.
year-old daughter, Virginia, from
the sheriff of the county.
Arrival of state police resulted
in a battle to take the two fright
ened women from the mobbists.
After a hand to hand fight in
which the would-be lynchers used
stones, clubs and other weapons,
the state troopers rescued the
women and removed them to an
unknown destination for safe keep
ing.
Reason for attempted lynching
The husband of the older woman
is alleged to be one of two men
who shot and killed a white farm
er near here two days ago. A
posse is searching for the man in
the swamps near Stockholm. The
women were taken in custody fo1
questioning. The mob, unable to
find the man, evidently wanted tc
wreak vengeance on the defense

Hamilton Fish
Again Raps F.D.R.
Lynching Silence

Washington, D. c., February 8
1910. - Hearings on the Anti
Lynching Bill, which passed the
House by a two-to-one vote, are
now being held before a Senate
Judiciary subcommittee. Southern
members opposing the bill when it
was under consideration in the
House said that the most harmful
thing the Republicans could do
would be to "smoke out" President
Roosevelt and send the bill to him
for his final action.
President Roosevelt does not
hesitate to express his views and
pass moral judgments on European
Nations. Why is he so strangely
silent on legislation aimed to pro-
vide for the security and safety of
the lives of our own people? The
American people, both white and
colored, are entitled to know where
President Roosevelt stands on the
Anti-Lynching Bill, and what he
proposes to do to help secure it's
passage in the Congress.
If he is against the bill the Sen
ate is wasting time in considering
it, because it never could get a
two-thirds majority. If he is for
the bill, a word from him would
cause favorable vote in the Sem
ate.
A Nation that sits supinely by
and permits its own citizens to be
destroyed by mob violence is in no
position to protest racial injustices
and persecution in foreign lands.

Brown pointed out that whether

or whether you believe that man
evolved from a lower form of life,
there is no scientific or religious
proof of the superiority of one
race over another. He emphasized
the necessity of treating the prob

Said DR.. Brown: Social revolution
is not an overthrow of ideals; it is
putting into practice those truths
that are automatic and self-evI-

HIT MAYOR FALLON CLAIM
HE DIDN'T WANT TO
HEAR PROTESTS

In a strong letter to this paper
the st. Paul Joint Labor Council
raped sharply the st. Paul City
Council, Mayor Fallon and others
for passing the buck" in the re-
cent "Gone With the Wind" picture
controversy. =.
The statement of the Council fol-
lows: ~. ~
Editor: Here is the complete
story of the recent protest made
by the Joint Negro Labor Council
of st. Paul against "Gone With the
Wind" ~ ..
On Monday, Jan. %, the Joint
Council appointed a committee to
protest the showing of the picture.
On Wednesday, Jan. "a, the COM
mittee secretary mailed a letter to
the City Council requesting hear
ing =. relative to banning the pic
ture, at the Councils earliest con-
venience. No answer whatsoever
was received regarding this letter.
On Tuesday, Jan. 80, the St. Paul
evening daily paper carried a story
on page three stating that the City
Council had discussed the commit
tees letter and had decided to call
in Lou Golden, manager of the Or
pheum Theatre, and the Protest
Committee for a hearing on Jan.
81, the next morning.
Clerk Makes Excuse
On Wednesday, Jan. 81, the Pro-
test Committee appeared, but the
somewhat flustered clerk of Coun-
Gil informed them that "Mr. Gold
en- could not be contacted" and that
he (the clerk chad tried to find
the council secretary's phone num-
Der in the city directory, but could
find none listed" (The council Sec
retary's phone number is listed
twice. in the city directory - once
under his own name, and once un-
der the name of his father.) The
hearing was deferred until Thurs
day.
On Thursday, Feb. 1, the Pro-
test Committee asked that prevue
showing of the picture be made
with Negro Church and Civic lead
ers, Golden, members of the City
Council and the Protest Commit
tee as an audience. 1t was felt
that the Negro group could point
out whatever parts appeared OBJ
jectionable, and if possible have
them expunged from the picture.
The City Council listened to the
testimony and took no action. These
are the facts.
Raps Orpheum Manager
But behind these simple facts lies
a story of peculiar, perhaps far
reaching significance. It is a story
of a vicious, underhanded attempt
by the manager of the Orpheum
Theatre to smear the Joint Labor
Council with charges of having
been inspired by Communists to
make the protest. 1t is a story of
a half-baked effort by the City
Council and the Mayor in particu-
lar, to prevent the hearing from
even coming to the floor of the
council chambers, and of the alert
persistence of the Protest Commit
tee in fighting for its right to

Joint Council Hits Fallon,.
st. Paul Commissioners. on
Gone With the Wind Tactics

0PCohs
City Hall observers say that
Golden was in the council chamber
on Tuesday morning, Jan. 80, when
the letter from the protest COM
mittee was discussed. He. urged the
council to ignore the letter as did
Mayor Fallon, who was opposed to
granting the joint council a hear
ing. -.
At the hearing on Thursday,
Feb. l, Golden presented leaflets
bearing the Communist party's
name and attacking the picture
"Gone With the Wind" He claimed
that these had been dropped ON
Rondo st. doorsteps" and had "ir-
sQired" the protest made by the
Joint Council. The false in1plica-
ton created by joining these. two
totally unrelated facts is DELHI
crate effort to destroy the effective
ness of the Joint Councils protest
and at the same time to undermine
the morale and support of the
Council by crying out 'tredy"
The Joint Labor Council denies
emphatically that it's protest was
inspired or instigated by the Com
munist Party. The letter protest
ing the picture was mailed fully
week before the Communist leaflets
appeared and nobody in the Joint
Council knew, nor had any way of
knowing that such a move was to
be made.
The Joint Council deplores the
fact that some Negroes were
"taken in" by that insidious tom
myrot. But while regretting that
some Negroes were temporarily
misguided by false newspaper
propaganda, the Council knows full
well that there are other Negroes
who understand the aims of the
organization and yet deliberately
spread sneaky innuendoes and false
hoods of red implications about the
Joint Council and it's program The
Council condemns these reaction:
airy members of our own race who
betray our own interests by drag
ging the "red herring" across our,
militant efforts toward race inn
provement. The Joint Council IS
organized to improve race relations.
and to better the condition of the
Negro in Labor. If it is "Commu-
nistic" or "un-American" to try to
better ones condition-then we
might as well take all our Negroes
out of all our schools and forget
everything about progress" and
Improvement" - b because such
words are dangerous. ,.:.-.
The Joint Negro Labor Council
voices its protest against the evil
dent lack of consideration given by
the City Council-the Mayor in
particular-who, as a reliable in
formant connected with the City
Council tells-was decidedly cp-
posed to even hearing the Negro
delegation. Two members of the
City Council, however, appeared
slightly favorable although we
cannot forget that they, too, re-
manned silent when they: could
have spoken. ara.
