LET TWENTY MILLION LET
TIERS MARCH ON WASHINGTON
Donald Culrass Peattie in his
current article, entitled Your
Bill of Rights" says in the two
concluding paragraphs:
Sometimes you hear that your
Bill of Rights guarantees you Ii
berries. | asked the Attorney Cen
eral of the United States. Tom c..
Clark about the word, as we stood
examining tn grand old document
in the Archives Building. That
night I asked Justice William O..
Dougless of the Supreme Court
the same question. Both gave the
same answer The bill of rights
promises much, but it's up to the
American people to make that
promise good
Somewhere in the country, the
Bill of Rights is violated every
day. It's most dangerous foes are
not foreign dictators, but those of
us who while claiming every pri-
velege of democratic liberty would
deny it to others. To rise to a
neighbor's aid in defense of his
rights is first duty of citizenship.

ed that God comes to mems res
cue. He never helps those who
do not desire to be helped be-
cause those who want to be help
ed can be helped.
All of which brings me to make
suggestion having to do with
the most barbaric and degrading
violations of the Bill of Rights,
which are the first ten amend
ments to the Constitution Of the
United States, as typified by the
unpublished lynching of four per-
sons near Monroe, Ca, last year,
the recent lynching of Willie
Earle and the acquittal Of TWEEN
ty-eight white South Carolinians
who had been indicted by a white
judy yfor the lynching- all of
which is symbolic of what is hap
pening in instance otter instance
to millions of black folk in the
South especially, and members of
other minority groups throughout
the country.
The president of the United Sta
ties, United States Senators and
Representatives, Department of
Justice officials and holders of
public opinion must be made to
know that we, the people, want
laws enacted which will assure ev-
cry citizen protection by the Fed
eral Governments protection
as has been found impossible to
have under state laws, as proved
in the recent Georgia and South
Carolina lynchings.
America is a nation of upwards
of 30,000,0O0 homes. If 10000 900
individual American citizens will
let the President of the United
States and every member of Con-
gress know they want laws enac-
ted which will enable the Federal
Government to track down, try
and convict lynchers, we will get
some action on the Washington
level.

A second is outspoken criticism
of evry form of local and fed
eral government when it fails in
its duty to the first ten tmend-
ments. When the people think, and
say what they think, this govern
ment obeys. The great liberties
of the Bill of Rights were paid for
in agony and blood and can be
kept only by restless conscience
and courage to speak OUT
When it comes to the impor-
lance of speaking out, | am remin-

not move as swiftly, was visited
by Jesus one day and asked if he
wanted to be healed. He recited
the difficulty he had experienced
in his thirty-eight years of effort.
But Jesus just kept asking him if
he wanted to be healed. Finally,
the emaciated, dirty, feeble and

the affirmative He was healed
