Tenth Lynching of Year
Revives Demand For
Passage of Costigan
Wagner Bill
Roosevelt Asked by N. A. A C. P.
To Urge Congress to Pass An
ti-Lynching Bill Before Ad
journment ; Senator Bailey of
North Carolina Challenged to
Prove that State can Prevent
Lynchings without Federal Aid
New York, July 31—The lynch
ing of Govan Ward at Louisburg,
North Carolina, yesterday caused
the sending of the following tele- j
gram to President Roosevelt and
Senator Joshiah W. Bailey, of
North Carolina, today bv the Na
tional Association for the Ad
vancement of Colored People. The J
telegram to l*resident Roosevelt
read: *
“The tenth lynching of 1935 oc
curred at Louisburg, oNrth Caro
lina. yesterday when a man. al
leged to be insane, was put to
death in the State of Senator Jo
siah W. Bailey, one of the most
vociferous leadtrs of the filibust
er against the Costigan-Wagner
anti-lynching bill. This is the fifth
lynching since the filibusters suc
ceeded in sidetracking the anti
lynehing bill. Should Congress ad
journ without acting against
lynching it is probable and al
most certain that human beings
now alive will fall victims to
mobs. Situation necessitates vour
urging upon Congress that it act
without -delay to pass the Costi
gan-Wagner bill. Our country
cannot with good grace denounce
barbarism in Nazi Germany as
long as these mob outrages dis
grace America.’’
The telegram to Senator Bail
ey. one of the leaders in the fili
buster which sidetracked the
Costigan-Wagner bill in April,
though 59 Senators were pledged
to vote for the bill, read:
“On April 26 you vigorously at
taeked the Costigan-Wagner an
ti-lynching bill and asserted that
‘we need no incentive to do our
duty in preventing lynching or
punishing lynchers. Yesterday a
mob in your own State, at Louis
burg. presented you and the State
of North Carolina with a chal
lenge to prove the truth of your
statement of April 26. Thought
ful Americans, including many
white citizens of North Carolina,
do not believe that lynching can i
be stopped except by Federal ac
tion. The eyes of the world will
!»*• upon you and your State to see
if you spoke truthfully when you
filibustered against the Costigan
Wagner bill/’

Negro Preacher Pleas
es White Hearer
Columbia, S. C„ Aug. 7, (ANP)—
W. P. Hourneal. white, konwn in
this section as the “Dutch Weather
Prophet” was profuse in his praise
of a sermon preached here Sunday
night by Rev. J. C. White, guest pas
tor at the Zion Baptist church.
Wrifc.ng in the SOUTH CARO
LINA STATE. Mr. Housneal. who
according to his own declaration,
had ben drawn to the service at the
Negro church by his anxiety to hear
the man whose writings he had read
when he was editor of a white Bap
tist publication, declared:
“Dr. White presented three prop
ositions for the guidance, especially
of his own race, to whom his sermon
was addressed. He told them to
adopt the program which Moses had
given the children of Israel:!., So
cial security, 3, adherence te su
preme fath in the Christian religion.
It was this faith and the adherence
tc surreme faith n the Christian
religion. It was this faith and the
adherence to the religion, that God
gave abundant success and prosper
ity to people of Israel that distin
guished the regn of David as com
pared to the reign of Saul in his lat- j
ter years.
“The sermon was replete in class
ical quotations to illustrate the
theme of the speaker in referimg to
state national and international or
isis of ancient and modern times.
Selections from poems of Longfel
low and James Russell Lowell were
used with accurate precision as illus
strations. Especially dramatic was
the preacher's reference to the crisis
the Allies in Europe when they
arrayed against Napoleon Bona
parte as he returned from Elba and
precipitated the Battle of Waterloo
One seldom hears a more accurate or
more thrilling description of that
decisive battle of modem times.”
Dr. White was for a number of
years pastor of the Zion Baptist
church ahd is now pastor of First
Baptist church of Winston Salem,
N. C., which claims to be the largest
church of the denomination in the
state of North Carolina.

Asiatics Aroused By
Mussolini’s Color Issue
Seek Ways to Aid Ethiopia.
—
London, England, Aug, 7, (By
Rudolph Dunbar for ANP)—Per
haps the worst error yet in Premier
Mussolini’s egregious policy of ag
gression toward Ethiopia occurred
last week when he blatantly raised
the color issue and issued a rallying
cry for Italy to defend the white
races of the world against the yel
low, bdack and brown.
This was not wily bad diplomacy
but rotten from a historical paint of
view as well. Here in Europe, the
Italians are regarded as having
more African blood than any other
European nation, not excluding
Spain. A black man was at one
time mayor of the city of Florence
during the reign of the Metdicis.
The immediate reaction to Mus
solini’s call to the colors on the bas
is of racial color, was a ringing
challenge from Mahatma Gandhi to
his millions of followers for'-siipport
of the Ethiopian cause.
Of equal importance ts the re
ported attitude of the ruler of
Yemen (Arabia) across the Rec: sea
from Ethiopia. Italy had sought to
import laborers from Yemen into
Ethiopia to aid its preparations for
war.
Zaidi Inam Yahya refused to give
Italy permission to reed nit these la
borers and also,announced his sym
pathy for Ethiopia. Although the
Yemenites are Mohammedans and
theEthiopians are Christians, the
two people are forgetting their re
ligious differences and uniting un
der the bond of color.
Sr ejects oi inam Yahya are seek
ing to enlst in the Ethiopian army.
The population numbers 3,500,000.
They propose to reach Ethiopia
through the port of Zeila in British
Somalland. There is nothing to pre
vent them from go.ng to Ethiopia
before war is declared.
It is believed that in ethe wake of
the Yemenites over Asiatic nations,
as far west as India, will send re
cruits and supplies to help Haile
Selassie.

Daily; “Huey’s” An
swer to Mob Protest
New York, Aug 2—A form let
ter alleging that he had received
31.217 letters “in one single day”
and that he is now working
“more than 20 clerks from early
morning until way late in the
night”, is all that Huey Long an
swers to a letter from the N. A.
A. C. P. regarding the brutal
heating of Adam Avie at Villa
Platte. La., on July 2nd.
On July 18 the N A. A. C. P.
forwarded to Senator Long the
names and addresses of seven
members of the mob of twenty
five who took Avie from the Villa
Platte jail and beat him with
brass-studded straps until the
mob thought him dead. The N. A.
A. 0. P. reminded Senator Lung
that he had boasted upon many
occasions fo Louisiana’s ability to
prevent lynehings and punish
lynchers, and of his assertions
federal legislation against lynch
in gis unnecessary.
To this specific information on
the part played by each of the
seven ringleaders of the mob,
Senator Long can only reply, the
N. A. A. C. P. points out, in a
meaningless form letter, with
which was sent a number of re
prints of Senator Long’s speech
es explaining his “Share the
Wealth” plan.
