Down Lynch Mob

Within two days after the
lynching on July IS OF the four
colored persons Governor Ellis
Arnal on behalf of the State
Of Georgia had offered $4,000
in rewards for the mobsters.
Secretary walter white of the
NAACP quoted an appeal
which he said he had received
from a white Georgian:
IF We can't break this case,
no ones life will be safe in
Georgia. 1t is doubtful if future
lynchings would cause the in
dignation which this one has
because of the unquestioned
innocence of three people of
any wrong doing whatsoever. I
shudder to think what would
happen If this crime goes UNI
punished"

clared; The lynchings Of the
four colored persons, one a
