MONTGOMERY, Ala, May 21— Attorney General A. A. Carmichael pledged “every resource” of the State today to an effort to oust a sheriff accused of negligence in a lynching. He acted despite & grand jury rec- ommendation ‘that the case be dropped. Carmichael, in a statement, casti- gated lynchers and said personal in- vestigation of the mob killing of a Negro in Henry County had con- vinced him “beyond doubt” that Sheriff J. L. Corbitt should be re- moved. The impeachment proceedings, now set for hearing June 3 before the Alabama Supreme Court, were insti- tuted by Carmichael at the request of Gov. Bibb Graves, who said he was going “to put an end to lynch- ings in this State.” The Negro, Wes Johnson, was lynched by a mob of about 100 men D. C, FRIDAY, who took him from the Henry County Jail about three months ago, soon after his arrest as a suspect in a reported attack on a white woman. The Henry County grand jury rec- ommended charges against the sheriff be dropped. After conferring last night with the Governor, Carmichael said: “The recent report of the grand jury will not have the slightest effect on the impeachment proceedings now pending in the Supreme Court of Alabama, Called Unlawful Hoodiums. “To say that lynching has any- thing to do with protecting woman- hood in Alabama is pure poppycock. The answer to this is that a petit jury would require about 30 seconds to reach an electrocution verdict for the perpetrator of such & crime as this, “Those unlawful hoodlums who imagine themselves heroes when tak- ing part in lynchings have a distorted idea of patriotism. Only lawless hoodlums and the enemies of govern- ment take part in mob law.” Students Venerated in France.
