Danger Of Conclusions
Addressing the meeting on
Problems In Social Action" Liver
light referred to the recent poll
conducted by the National Opinion
Research Center in Denver, Col.
published in Star-Journal last
week., on attitudes toward the
treatment Of Negroes in the United
States. Results Of the poll, pub
lished widely Aug. - in the ma
tons press, reported that Sc per
cent Of the white Americans polled
believed that "most Negroes are
being treated fairly" LiveTight
pointed out that "the danger Of
publishing such figures, without
due caution and Interpretation, lies
in the fact that many persons read
ing the results Of the poll would
mistake figures published for actual
facts"
Public opinion polls, although q
valuable medium for determining
the temper Of public opinion, are
frequently misleading unless care
fully framed and reported" de-

Washington Paper
Says Lynch Mob
Arrests Imminent

WASHINGTON, D. C. (NNPA)
The investigation Of the lynch
ing Of four persons near Monroe,
Ga, July 26, Is going forward with
all the energy possible, President
Truman told his press conference
last Friday.
Asked whether he had received
any information on the investiga-
ton the Department Of Justice Is
making into the lynchings, Mr.. Tru-
man replied he had not received any
official information beyond that.
Three Identified
The Washington Post last Friday
said agents of the Federal Bureau
of Investigation had identified at
least three of the mob who took
the two men and their wives from
the car Of 10y Harrison, a well-to-
do white farmer, and riddled their
bodies with bullets.
Evidence leading to q complete
roundup Of the mob, the Post said,
would soon be laid before Governor
Ellis Arnall Of Georgia and At
torney General Tom C.. Clark, who
ordered the FBI inquiry immediate
ly after word Of the lynchings had
been received here.
FBI officials at the Justice De-
partment and the head of the At
lanta Office Of the FBI, John r.
frost, declined to comment on the
story.
The FBI was said to be tying up
the threads of its evidence before
making arrests.
Two MObs Were Waiting
The Post also said State official
in Georgia had disclosed that two
mobs were waiting for the victims.
The second mob was guarding
another road which Harrison could
have travelled with the farm hands
and their wives. That mob did not
participate in the lynching, but was
prepared 10 act II the other mob
had not stopped the car in which
the quartet was riding.
At the time Of the lynching Har-
rison had just posted bond Of 5000
for Roger Malcolm on a charge of
stabbing a white farmer, Barney
Hester, and was taking to his farm,
Malcolm, his wife, Mrs. Dorothy
Malcolm, and Mr.. and Mrs. George
Dorsey. Dorsey had only recently
been discharged from the Army
after FIVE years Of service, inelud-
ing duty in Australia and North
Africa.
The Post said Hester's family are
strong supporters Of the Georgia
Rubernatorial nominee Eugene Tai
madge and that the day after Hes
ter was stabbed. which was ten
days before the multiple murders,
Talmadge had visited the Hester
household and held q lengthy con-
ference behind the Hester barn
with members Of the family.
President Truman personally
asked for reports on the progress
of the investigation into the lynch
ing and expressed his horror at the
brutal crime and his sympathy for
the families Of the victims.
Arrests Imminent
The NNPA News Service has
confidential information VII lie h
lends credenee 70 that part Of the
story stating that the identity OF
aone members Of the mob was
known 10 FBI agents and that ar
rests are imminent.
