BY the Associatea Press. WINONA, Miss, April 14—The lynching of two colored men, their flesh seared with blow-torch flames to exact “confessions” to the killing of a white man, faced a twofold in- vestigation today, even as Congress considered legislation to curb mob violence of such character. Gov. Hugh White, appraised of the killing of Roosevelt Townes and “Bootjack” McDaniels just as he fin- ished telling a Jackson Farm Confer- ence that Mississippi had not had a lynching in 15 months, ordered a full inquiry. “This terrible thing will be imme- diately investigated by the grand jury,” Circuit Judge John F. Allen of Kosciusko, before whom the Negroes had been arraigned and pleaded inno- cent, announced. The Governor advised Chairman Hatton W. Sumners of the House Judiciary Committee in Washington that he had ordered the investigation. The House of Representatives received news of the killings yesterday, as it debated a bill which provides punish- ment for any one guilty of lynching and peace officers who permit prison- ers to be taken from them. The victims, accused of Kkilling George Windham, a storekeeper, were taken from the custody of Sheriff E. E. Wright and two deputies by a mob—some estimated the number as high as 500—which the sheriff described as “orderly.” At the time the prisoners were being led from the court house to the jail nearby. Thrown into a school bus, the hand- cuffed men were motored to a spot near Duck Hill, Miss, while they screamed for mercy. Some 50 auto- mobiles followed in the bus’ wake. Arrived at the scene, Townes and Mc- | Daniels were tied to trees and stripped to their waists. Blowtorch flames cooked their chests. Townes died from the burns. Mc- Daniels was shot through the head. The Governor issued an order for mobilization of the National Guard at Grenada, but countermanded it when he was advised the mob had dispersed. Sheriff Wright said he did not recog- nize any of the men who pinned his arms and seized the prisoners. “I will use every means possible | to bring those responsible for the mob before the bar of justice,” Wright an- nounced. LYNCHINGS SPUR DEBATE. EY the Assoctated Press. Proponents of a Federal anti-lynch- ing bill, now pending in the House, to- day pointed to the lynching of two col- ored men yesterday in Mississippi as an argument in behalf of a proposal by Representative Gavagan, Democrat, of New York to impose heavy fines and | Braths.

Under Gavagan's proposal peace offi- cers who permit prisoners to be taken from them would be subject to pun- ishment, as well as mob members. Representative Michener, Repub- lican, of Michigan yesterday interrupt- ed a plea by Representative Celler, Democrat, of New York in behalf of the legislation to read press reports of the Mississippi mob action. “This horrible incident proves,” the New Yorker shouted, “that lynching has not ceased.” Southern Democrats, who branded the legislation an unconstitutional in- vasion of the rights of the States, made no immediate reply on the floor, but in statements later denied the cx;ll;ne Wwas a “valid” argument for the bin. “This lynching is not an indication that the laws of Mississippi condone or approve such acts,” declared Rep- resentative Miller, Democrat, of Arkansas. .
