Newspaper Page TextFRIDAY, DECEMBER 18, 193! New Mexico Shows Maryland How to Handle Criminals I DAILIES IW LAMBftST DIXIE FOR STAGING LYNEHING Albqucrqtic, New Mexico, Dec. J 8 ißy 'lie Associaled Negro Presss* As a result of the eon vietion '’.?re recently of Thomas Johnson, tried and convicted of the murder of a white girl and sen fenced to die February 12, two newspapers have pointed to the manner in which local officials handled the case as being exem pital bed and : lynched The editor of the New Mexico State Tribune wrote in part: "We commend the case of John son to the attention of other local ities in the United States, particu larly to officials and citizens and tlv great free slate of Maryland,' 'Sherif Baca took no chances Hi placed his prisoner in the New Mexico state penitentiary District Attorney Kenney and Santa Fe lo cal officers went about the busi ness ogf establishing guilt as if they believed Johnson innocent The district attorney built up a mistake. An able attorney was appointed to defend the prisoner He made a sincere fight for his client. The jury decided. “We are deeply impressed with Ithe smooth and effective way in which Santa Fe-co authorities op crated in the midst of a tryim situation,. The reason is that a law abiding community had confidenc' that justice would be done.” And in a similar strain wrote the editor of the Albuuerque Journal "An attorney appointed by the court able depended the Negro and the defendant received the din protection and justice’ to which h< was entitled uptil a final determin ation of his guilt or innocence. "It is to the credit of the citizens of Santa Fe that they have acted so admirably under the strain ot the fiendfrh crime. The little mur mur of mob violence was met by more sober judgment and quick add complete justice has been fix ed in the case. "How much better it is that or derly process of law prevailed than to have had a reputation simi lar to some other 't.itcs for mob violence. In Maryt. 1 for instan ce there was a ly hi ng during the time pf the Ria. m Santa Fe, for. a less brutal crime than that committed in this state.
