Moody | Lynching Decreases— The Department of Records anti^ Research at Tuskegee issues the following statement: “Only three lynchings occurred in the United States during the Calendar year 1939. All of the lynchings took place in the South. Two in Florida and one in Misaiss ippi, Two were Colored men and I one was a white man.” “The total of three for 1939 com pares with six in 1938, eight in 1937 and the same in 1936, and 20 in 1936. Officers of the law pre vented lynching in 18 instances, all occurred in the South, saving a to tal of 26 human lives—20 Negroes i and 6 whites. This statement is ve*y signific ant because the Anti-Lynch Bill is to be brought before Congress a gain this week. All loyal Americ an citizens rejoice to see this de cline in mob violence and regret that even three were lynched. It appears that a greater respect for “due process of law” is being de veloped. But as a safeguard a gainst possibly new “lynch waves” we feel that a Federal Anti-Lynch Law is advisable. Some Southern Congressmen have already declar-1 ed their intention to support a fili buster against the bill, so we in the west, east and north will do well to join our Southern breth ern in protesting this filibuster and urging our representatives to sup port the bill.
