In the Sikeston case be sought and
obtained, 1t will mark the first
time in the history OF American
Jurisprudence that a lynching case
has been brought into a Federal

PROBE LYNCHING
The case grows out OF the lyn-
ching OF Negro, Cleo Wright, who
was. accused OF assaults on a
white woman, and was tortured
and killed by mob in Sikeston on
January "a. 1912. The assistance

the theory that State authorities
conspired to deny Wright the equal
protection OF the law by releasing
him to the lynchIng mob.
