''This is the most vicious law

declared. Its potentialities may
Ie-enslave the colored people of
the South. 1t means that no coll
ored person or group Of colored
persons may leave any Southern

the South wishes to stop colored
emigration,it needs only to use
this Federal device which may
serve as a cloak to cover any

in Massachusetts all of his life,

is John Doe. Regardless of his in

There is talk OF an anti-lynch-

anti-lynching bill Of which they
