Summer Hemt
Too many caution? cannot Co
printed against sunburn. No mat
ter how much is said or written,
no matter what one's past experi
_ ence may have been,
ene majority ox
people show unrea
sonable haste in ac
quiring a sunburn. |
“I’m going to be
tanned ljke an Indi
an,” they say, for
getting tnat tne In
dian’s red-brown skin is natural.
Children are in danger, because
they don’t know there is any dan
ger. In the summer, they have all
day for play. The release from
school is tempting, with so many
things to do. If parents aren’t
mindful and wrtehing, the first
day or two in the summer sun may
bring a serious burn. Then a week
of suffering, often confined to bed.
And it isn’t always as simple as
that. Burn from the sun is no ‘dif
ferent from any burn. It isn’t con
fined to a sore skin. Poisons, or
body toxins, are formed. The child ,
may be feverish and nauseated. In
attempting to throw off the poisons,
the kidneys may be injured. Some
times severe prostration results.
In all cases of sunburn, it is ad
visable to place a child in a physi
cian’s care. Wise treatment will
prevent the complications. But the
greatest wisdom is shown at the
beginning. Take the sunburn grad
ually, a little each day. Give the
skin a chance to tan painlessly.

North Carolina Govern
or To Push Lynching
Probe
No Credence Put In Report That
Negroes Were Inf Mob
—
Raleigh, N. C., Aug 8, (ANP)—i
A reward of $400 has been offered by
Governor Ehringhaus for the arrest
and conviction of parties responsible
for the lynching of Govan Ward, who
ran amuck at Louisburg, N. C., and
killed a 67-year-old white farmer.
In the meantime the chief executive
of the State is trying to ascertain
just why the officers of Franklin
county were so dilatory in request
ing help to prevent mob violence and
why it was impossible to recognize
any of the members of the mob, al
though they were unmasked.
The governor learned of the lynch
ing through Associated Press reports
and immediately dispatched troops to
the seene but they arrived too late to
deter the lynchers. They found the
body of the lynched man suspended
from an oak tree and a crowd of
men and women milling about the
body, expressing approval of the ac
tion of the mob and some cutting off
toes and other parts of the body for
souvenirs. In the crowd were many
young women who apparently found
much pleasure in viewing the grue
some spectacle and in praising the
“heroism” of the lynchers.
When the lynching was first re
ported it was sad that Negroes were ;
numbered among the mob, but little
credence is being put in the story
and Negro leaders themselves are
pointing to the fact that Negroes
are law-abiding and are willing at
all times to let the law take its
course and to the fact that it was
due to the act of a Negro that the
man, who has been declared insane,
was placed under arrest.
Some of the facts relative to the
lynching that are causing much com
me nt include:
1. That althoagh it was common
knowledge that mob violence was in
the making, one sheriff and two
i deputies attempted to talte the pris
oner to another county for safe
keeping.
2. That the prisoner was beaten
over the head with a blackjack by
one of the officers who attempted
to kill him by placing a gun to his
head and pulling the trigger. His
gun had been unbreached when dis- i
lodged fro mthe ,hcl|ster during a
struggle with the manacled prison
er and the bullets emptied on the
floor of the car, hence it dd not fire,
and this officer declared: “I want
ed to kill him then and there but
the others would not let me.”
3. That the officers did not ob
serve or attempt to get the numbers
of licenses on any of the cars, carry
ing lynchers.
4. That the governor was not noti
fied by the officers but instead a
band of 30 special deputies were as
signed the task of rounding up the !
lynchers.
Governor Issues Statement
In discusing the outrage, Governor
Ehringham issued the following
statement: “Two horrible crimes
have been committed in Franklin
county today. The first by an ap
parently crazed and degenerate in
dividual, the second by a mob of
supposedly responsible citizens. The
first intimation of either occurrence
came to the Governors’ office, not
through officers of the law but
through the Associated Press and
this was to the effect that the
wretched defendant had already been
taken from the officers by the mob.
“Immediately the Highway Patrol
and the National Guard received or
iel’s to do all possible to avert a
lynchng. Both acted with the utmost <
promptness and dispatch and both (
were on the scene within a remark- ‘
ably brief time, but too late to pre- 1
vent the last crime. This office also 1
with the Shsriff of Franklin county
immediately sought to get in touch ;
by long distance but could not do no. ■
Chief of Police of Louisburg and the
The Governor also called upon the
Sheriff of Vance county and urged
that they offer every possible as
sistance to prevent lynching or dis
order. No report of the first crime
or of any danger or threat of trouble
was made to this office by any of
ficer of the law of Franklin county
and no request came for assistance.
Had we received an intimation that
the transfer of the prisoner for safe
keeping was contemplated ano there
was any danger of disorder we could
have rendered prompt and construc
tive asistance, but no such informa
ton or request was forthcoming.
“Offense Against Decency”
“I deplore, of course, the original
crime, horrible in its details, but I de
plore also the second ocense against
the laws of North Carolina and pub
lic decency and feel keenly the shame
and reflection whies it has cast up
on our good name and our reputation
for orderly administration of justice.”
The crime for which Ward was
lynched was the decapitating of an
aged white man who attempted to
stop him from beatng his (Ward’s)
sister with a bottle. Ward was in
sane at the time and had attacked
two others before he killed Charles
G, Stokes, the 67 year old white far
mer. An ax was the weapon used by
thu killer.

Uses Eduction
Methods To Stop
Drinking Moonshine
New Bern, N. C., Aug, 8, (ANP)
—Believing that no one who saw
how rryionshine liquor was made and
the unsanitary conditions around a
still would ever drink the liquor,
Sheriff R. B. Lane, of Craven lounty
has issued a standing invitation to
the public to accompany officers
when a raid is being conducted.
“I do not believe”, said the sheriff,
‘‘that any men or woman who ever
saw the filth, the vermin and what
not around one of these moonshine
stills could ever stomach the liquor
again so I am issuing this invitation.
We raided a still last week and the
place was infested with roaches, rats
