nature. And nearly every SEN
tence has been suspended. This
is the picture of justice meted
out to mob violence that Amer
leo holds up for the rest of the
world to look at.
And now? -Four men and
women lynched last summer in
Georgia. NO ONE PUNISHED. A
lynching in South Carolina by
cab drivers who confessed their
guilt. NO ONE PUNISHED. De-
spite the personal courage OF
judge and prosecuting attorney
the jury refused to punish Now
a new lynching in North Caro-
ina.
There is one right thing to do
and we must do it. WE MUST
STOP MOB VIOLENCE IN THIS
COUNTRY. But we in the South
are not strong enough to swing
his Job alone and we must face
up to our weakness. We need
the full cooperation of our en-
tire hation. We are asking our
own people to help us now
Americans like ourselves, whose
concern it is and who should
share in this responsibility. Only
by our securing a Federal bill
against lynching can we draw
fully upon the resources of our
government and our Federal
courts to help us meet this cul-
tural disaster.
Together, We American citi-
zens, north and south, can and
must see to it that such a bill
is passed. The Case bill against
lynching is now before Congress.
II is sane. moderate, not vim
dictive nor vengeful. This bill
should be passed. We can write
letters to our Congressman, let
ters to our newspapers, we can
talk to our neighborS, we can
discuss this at our clubs and we
can pass this bill if we want to.
Americans for Democratic Ac-
ton is a group Of citizens who,
in democratic ways, are trying
to make democracy work in
this country and throughout
the world. Give them your
money and your support; do It
now while we have the chance
to stop this infamy. Send $1,000
if you can or 81. But do not per-
nit this day to pass without
registering your protest against
those crimes which unchecked
will drag America down.
as southerner and a human
being, believe this is the ur-
gent task before us today, the
most Immediately pressing. Each
racial crime in America now is
like a bell tolling across the

where that democracy is dead.
We must stop that sound.

Got an earfull of Broadfield' S
seventeenth annual performance
Of his Peoples Angelic Spirito
Choral Society, Monday night,
and he bore out my prophecy
that this program would be his
best yet. I do not mean to cast
reflections upon any past pro-
grams; they were all good. But.
Claudius is walking arm and arm
with the law of progress, and
each succeeding program must
be better than the last. That's
what I mean. The appearance Of
the chorus was admirable, and
the discipline which prevailed
showed the magnetism of the di-
rector. The special String En-
semble formed an added attrac-
tin to a very successful perfor-
nance. 1t was hard to pick out
high spots. but the VVictor Her

FIRE,s ToLL AMONG CHILDREN

Speaking radio broadcast sponsored by the
National Board of Fire Underwriters Mrs. Ruth Bryan
Rohde daughter of the late William Jennings Bryan told
of the terrible toll fire takes among the children the
country.
In 1914, said Mrs. Rohde, 5000 children under FIVE
years of age died in home accidenand burns accounted
for 1000 of their number In 1916 1900 children serious
y crippled from burns being cared for by state agen
cies The number of similar victims private homes
tins in private homes is not known but must be far
greater.
These children died crippled needlessly
added Mrs Rohde "These tragedies in most instances
due to adult careessness negligence Let not
wait until tragedy has brought the full force of this
Let US begin campaign Of prevention at once"
1t is not the children who make the mistakes of omis-
sion and commission thatre responsible for most fires
1t not the children whoSare nexecusaby Indifferent to
the danger 1t is instead parents who fail to take the
simple precautions that will prevent the great majority Of
fires - and the communities which lack adequate fire
safety laws.
The ghastly toll will continue to grow-until every
adult in the country joins in the campaign to conquer fire
