Down With Judge Lynch
. Synchronizing the Maryland lvnching with the conven
ing of Congress, the mobbists have brought to the attention
of that body the truth recently emphasized in the report on
lvnching coming out from the South that the excuse for
the savagery often put forward that it is necessary to resort
to it to protect white women is a subterfuge not supported
by the records.
In Maryland there was no woman involved. The man
lynched was not accused of looking in the direction of a
white woman. He is said to have killed a white man, with
whem he cuarreled about waves. We do not know the facts
attending the homicide at all. The lvnched man may have
acted in self defense, or there may have been circumstances
surrounding the killing that mieght have reduced it {rom
murder to manslaughter. Those were questions for the
court to decide in a speedy trial. Up to the time he was
lynched there was at most only one murderer, if indeed he
were a murderer. Now there are in Maryland as many cold
blooded murderers as actually struck down the colored man
and then burned his dead body or as were present aiding
and abetting in the satanic outrage.
Now, in all solorness, whither are we drifting in his
dangerous American réversion to savaverv? That there
will Le erimes committed now and then is almos<t inevitable
in a country so vast as is the United States. That once in
awhile there wil] be fights and even murders committed by
white men on black men and vice versa is also to be expeet
ed. A mora] pervert may attack some woman, for as said
before. this is a vast country.
What then? Shall we abolish the courts?. Is it to be
set down as true in a civilization a8 advanced as ours we
cannot centrol our passions and allow the constituted au
thorities to carry out the law?
The United States canno! surrender to the mob. The
law must be supreme or our doom is sealed.
If the stutes are impotent in the premises, then the
Federal Governmant mu.t act. Such outrages as the one
enacted in Marvi o' cn'sy 2 chort distance from the capital
of the Nation challenoos the United States to show its pow
er or clse surrender the government to the mad passion of
an unreasoning mobh.
Up with the law! Down with Judee Lynch!

More out of curiosity than for any other reason, I have
spent some little time wondering just who and wiiat were
@il of my ancesters in the yvear 1700 A. D. Not that it would
mean a thing, for although the high naie of an individual's

his remaining there depends only on what he can do.

Stimson and Japan-Congress

By William Pickens
(F'or The Associaied Negro Press)
Secretury Stimson @ has learned
that he must use more respecttul
and circumspect language when
talking about the Juapanese “army’”
than he uses when talking about
Mexican or Nicaraguan “bandits”
Of course, Japanese nerves are nct
a bit more sensitive’ than Haitiin
nerves—but Japanese guns are
bigger and longer, and Japan's
warship tonnage is heavy. It is 1
poor argument for “disarmament’
and demilitarization, when t h ¢
weak nations see how much gen
uine respect a military organiza
tion can get even from the great
United States. The Japanese are in
fact just as ‘‘colored’ as are the
people of Liberia, but nobody in
Washington is giving “orders” to
Japan. And when the bad manners
of our mighty Americans toward
“colored people’ cause our Secre
tary of State to make a ‘“slip” of
his tongue in speaking of Japanese
armies. he: hurries to ''take it
haek. . That s the hard faet:
Stimson told Japan that he was
misquoted. which may be a polite
face-saving way of taking it back.
As long as we show more human
respect for the heavily armed than
for the unarmed. we may shout
the roof off the top of our skulls
about peace’ and ‘“disarmamert.”
but nobody will take us seric ‘1s

(Nahum 1:3)
The flowers l've by the tears that fall
From the sad face of the skies;
Aud l'fe would have no joys at all,
Were there no watery eyes.
L.ove thou thy sorrow: grief shall bring
Its own excuscs in after years; :
The rainbow!—see how fair a thing
God hath built up from tears,
