DAILY WORKER, NEW YORK, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 1933 Southern Woman Bares Tricks of | Higher-Ups to Shunt ] Lynch Blame Use Civil War Method to Conceal Share in Crimes By GRACE LUMPKIN Author of “To Make My Bread,” Member of Recent Tuscaloosa Investigating Committee A descendant of a Southern family which helped make the laws of Georgia and build up the economic and political power of the Southern upper class whites, I recently became a member of a delegation which went te Tuscaloosa, Alabama, under the auspices of the National Committee for the Defense of Political Prisoners, to investigate the peCuliar workings of Southern “justice.” ‘Three Negro boys had been taken out on @ lonely road and two of them shot to death, the other wounded. They were under the protection of the Sheriff of the county. We found every evidence to show that the crime against these boys, accused, but not convicted of murder, was done with the knowledge and approval of those higher up. Because, as Judge Foster told us, “People seemed to feel that they didn’t want another Scottsboro case.” The boys were shot at a junc- tion of three counties. The deputies who had tlie boys in charge said a band of masked men stopped them and took the boys in order to kill them. This manner of getting rid of | ||Shows Up Lynchers GRACE LUMPKIN “The first Negro the ,Klan in our county whipped lived in another county. We were called upon to go to that county.

I ask you to examine the validity of this “glory of the Anglo-Saxon.” I know Jews who have lived in the South for many generations, who made fortunes there who are as re- lentless as any other Southerner in their wish to punish Negroes for crimes they have not committed. But on their faces shines the glory of the Anglo-Sexon, the same glory that shines on the faces of other South- erners who have fine houses and plenty to eat and drink. What is the “glory of the Anglo- Saxon?” Do you look for it in the faces of pallid, worn-down Anglo- Saxon factory workers? Do you half-starved faces Saxon tenant farmer? You will find it in the faces of the judges and judges’ sons and their po- litical and economic equals. Their in the face with clear eyes, and say, like Pontius Pilate, “My hands are clean, Look, I have washed them.” But those who know the South know that they keep those other Anglo- Saxons, the factory workers, the poor farmers in ignorance and poverty, not consciously, not with dirty hands, but} in many devious ways, politically, and economically, they must keep these whites ignorant so that they may) search for its glow in the ignorant,| of the Anglo-| hands are clean.

Open Letter, in spite of the efforts of the Party to orientate its major activities around the shops, especially in the basic industries, the number of shop papers throughout the country, 4s not only disgracefully small, but has actually retrogressed during the past critical years of crisis. The com- rades should be congratulated that they have kept up the issuing of a shop paper, especially in a concen- tration industry.

Nowhere is the independent role of the M. W. I. U. in supporting the struggles of the I. L.
