Two S~ickening Crimes

Last week saw two outbreaks of cruelty
and savagery against the Negro people that
should make every Southerner of good
heart and simple human decency feel grief
and shame. Two Negro men, one of them a
veteran recently discharged after five years
service, and their two young wives were
shot to pieces by a mob of white men-prob-
ably members of the Ku Klux Klan-at Mon
roe, Georgia. At Lexington, Mississippi, our
own state, a Negro field hand was whipped
to death by six planters, for the trivial of
Tense of the theft of a saddle. Two other
Negroes latter confessed that it was they
and not the victim, who had taken the sad
dle-not that this detail makes much diff
ference in the depth of ignorance and evil
involved in this lynching.
There is latent good, and latent barbarism.
In every human spirit. and in this respect
we in the South are not different from other
people. But every argument of common
sense, every dictate of conscience, of manly
honor and of sectional pride, sternly tells
us that murder is evil, and is not the way to
solve any problem. Besides these worldly
things, every word of the Christian ideal
we profess to live by cries out against this
savagery. What sincere church member does
not know this in his heart? We hope the
criminals who perpetrated these betrayals of
white Southern honor are brought to book
And we hope the federal Department of
Justice, which incidentally is headed by a
Southerner, makes good its leaders avowaI
that the Ku Klux Klan will be prosecuted
on a national scale when violations of civil
rights can be proved.

Highway BottIeneck

We note that the Mobile Chamber of Com
merce has recommended a four-lane high
way between that city and New Orleans. The
Recommendation is well made, and the need
Of such a highway Is obvious in the amount
Of traffic, both automobile and truck, which
Highway 80 carries. 1t probably carries a
heavier volume of traffic than any through
highway in Mississippi. However, we would
like to point out to our neighbor city that,
due to neglect and downright don't-care
attitude on the part of our State Highway
Department, our efforts at the present
would be better expended on getting a simple
two-lane highway between Pascagoula and
Gautiar. If the present neglect continues
this three-mile stretch will become impass-
able before long as one of the several con-
demned bridges on the stretch Is going to
collapse, and in all probability when one
does collapse a bus or a heavy truck is going
into the water with a resultant toll of death
and injuries. So far the State Highway De-
partment's efforts have been directed toward
erecting bright yellow dangerous signs on
all the bridges and the building of guard
shacks at each end of one particularly dan
gerous stretch to house watchmen to warn
tourist and other traffic that in all prob
ability they might break their necks if they
aren't careful in negotiating this stretch.
This shows a warm concern on the part of the
Highway Department for the life, limb and
welfare of tax-paying Mississippians and
tourist visitors. but, we believe, a much
more sensible and safer approach would be
to eliminate the danger in instituting neces-
sary repairs to the bridges and roadway,
which have been in a dangerous condition
for three years.
{ And while on the subject of highway
neglect. it might be we'll to mention Highway
S., and that stretch approaching the bridge
over the Escatawpa river between Moss Point
and Escatawpa. The writer attended a meet
ing several months ago at which Mundell
Bush, highway commissioner for the South
ern District. was present. This stretch of
highway has been in process of sinking for
some time, and at normal high tide is now
covered with water and during unusual high
tides is impossible. When this happens the
people of Escatawpa and that section are
completely cut off from Moss Point and Pas
cagoula. During emergencies at such times

Pascagoula faces a very serious health men
ace in the filthy. fly-brceding garbage dump
that has grown up on the outskirts near
Bayou Casotte. AS a community we have
been aware of this for a long time and yet
have lone nothing about it. But this week a
letter from the county board of health to tile
city council warns that the situation is very
serious and that the filthy dump pile is a
potential source Of infection for typhoid few
err, dysentery and diarrhea, and the dreaded
polio that is now reaching epidemic proper
tons in the central and northern part of the
state. This open. rotting. dump, covered with
thick clouds of swarming flies, is standing
invitation to the polio infection to visit this
community and strike down and cripple
Pascagoula children. The health department
letter is a timely and forcefu reminder that
this system of garbage disposal simply can
not continue. There is no excuse for it.
Several months ago this newspaper cam

self. We pointed out that the continuous fill
system, by which trenches are dug and the
garbage continually buried as it is dumped,
had been employed successfully by army en-
gineers and many wartime communities. 1t

Tennessee line. have been taking
out some profitable insurance in
recent years by the development
of dairy and beef cattle herds.
The highway is spotted with
signs relating that this is the
home of so-and-so's polled Here
fords or purebred Guernseys. The
beautiful homes and modern
barns visable from the highway
are evidence enough that the ex-
periments are profitable ones.
A. J. Franklin, the county agent,
estimates that there r only 10
or IL acres of cotton in this coun-
ty, so the loss of that crop would
mean little to US as a whole We
think that we could learn a les
son in reverse, however, from
the cotton crop failure up state
by increasing our crops here
wherever practical to take care
of just such a catastrophe if our
industries should be sharply cur
tailed.
We travelled on three U. S.
highways on this four hundred
mile trip, U. S. 80 from Pascagou-
la to Gulfport, Highway 40 from
0ulfpcrt to Jackson, and U. s 81
from jackson to Memphis. We
were impressed again, as we have
been before, at the way the state
and federal highways improve as
one goes upstate from the coast.
AS soon as Gulfport is left be-
hind on U. S. 40, the series of
sagging bridges, broken pave
ment, asphalt stretches, under
brush-clogged bitches, and holes
and bumps fade from view also
and a straight ribbon of con-
crete with ample fills and sub
stantial bridges begins. 1t con
tinues from one end of the state
to the other.
The coast section of Mississippi
has always been treated by state
officials like a red headed step
child, as the old saying goes, and
we wonder if it is not largely due
to the unequal distribution of rep
resentatives which gives Copiah
county, with a population of 34,-
900 persons, the same number of
members in the House of Repre-
sentatives as Jackson and Har-
rison counties combined. with a
population totaling well over
100000 persons.
Copiah county has three repre-
sentatives, all from Hazelhurst
or that general area, while Jack
The Chronicle-star combined with the Moss Point advertiser., 1946-08-02

son and Harrison have one and a
half a piece-one each, and a
"floater" representing the Two.
Marshall and Pamela counties, too,
have three representatives each
although theft population was
only $4,000 persons, according to
the 1910 census, which showed
Harrison county with a popula-
ton of more than $4,000.
If Jackson and Harrison coun-
ties had their just number of
representatives, according to pop
ulation, we believe IL men could
be elected from the two counties
who Would put us in better posi-
ton in the CITY of Jackson and
adjust a lot of inequalities.
We discussed this matter with
jackson county's representative,
N. c. Everett, and he stated that
it would take a constitutional
amendment to achieve this desir-
ed end. He also said that the
chances were slim and we gath
cred, although he didn't say SO
in so many words, that the rep
resentatives from Marshall, Pa
nola, Copiah, and the other coun-
ties top-heavy with representa-
tives had just as soon keep things
to themselves.
Although it would probably be
a futile gesture, we would like to
see our coast representatives
make an attempt at getting such
an amendment passed so that our
people here on the coast might
have the representation in Jack
son to which they are entitled.
The Chronicle-star combined with the Moss Point advertiser., 1946-08-02

dinarily ranks second in cotton
production in the nation and first
in per-acre yield but it looks this
year as if about one-third of a
normal crop is all that can be ex-
pected.
1t is right along this time of
year that the cotton yield is de-
cided for better or for worse and
it looks like this year it has been
decided for worse-the worst in
20 years. Although the delta
is the hardest hit, the hill farm
ers have not Jared much better.
We crossed the state during a
trip to Memphis last weekend and
saw part of the tragic results OF
the extremely heavy rains in
northwestern Mississippi. Pass
ing through Montgomery, Grena-
da, Yalobusha, and the counties
in that area, it was obvious even
to one passing through on the
highway that the cotton was al
most a complete failure and the
corn little better.
. .
The advent of the flame cul-
tivator, which burns and kills the
grass without harming the cotton,
and the mechanical picker will
soon leave a huge surplus of la
Dor in this part of the state, al
though this isn't the case yet.
We talked to a farmer in Yalo-
busha county who said that day
labor is hard to get and that the
scale is four dollars a day for
negro family" farm hands, which
includes men, women and chill
dren.
The position of the people in
these counties this year is much
the same as ours would be if our
largest industries folded up over
night and the payrolls dwindled
to near nothing. In either case, it
is nearly all of the eggs in one
basket with no cushion in case
of a crash.
The folks up in that section,
particularly well up toward the
