RACE PROBLEM GROWING MORE ACOTE IN SOUTH Survey Shows rfard Times Spur Outbursts of Lynchings. Horrid Dr. Haven Tracy, United Press staff correspondent has spent the past several weeks in the old south studying new outgrowth of that district’s racial problem. During his tour he visited such i center* as Memphis, Birmingham. New Orleans and Atlanta, talked with many observers who are close to the situation, and viewed the pre nt status of the age old “Negro story.” Following is the first of a series of four articles in which he graphically presents his findings and observations. BY MORRIS DE HAVEN TRACY United Press Staff Correspondent ATLANTA, Ga., Aug 7 25.—The Negro problem once more is disturbing parts of Dixieland. Industrial depression with consequent unemployment, and agitation of so-called “white supremacy” organizations, are chief among immediate causes of present perplexity. The underlying cause is the economic and social situation in many parts of the south. It is a direct development of that day in 1619 when a Dutch trader sold twenty slaves to the colonists of Jamestown, Va., thereby implanting Negro slavers as an institution wiiich was to endure in the United States for nearly 250 years. Tensisity of the situation has had expression in ten or more lynching—quite probably a dozen or fourteen—so far this year and a number of other demonstrations against Negroes which, through counsel of cooler heads or for other reasons, did not end in actual violence. Past Last cYar’s Record The lynchng record for the year already has passed that of 1929, when ten lynching were recorded. One can many thoughtful individuals who fear the remaining months may be worse, unless calm minds can exert a powerful leadership. At Tuskegee institute, Tuskegee, Ala., Monroe M. Work keeps statistics on racial outbreaks, which are considered the nearest to official records of extra-legal punishment in existence. His figures show that since 1882 there have been 1,352 white persons and 3,390 Negroes lynched in the United States. Only four states, Massachusetts, Rhode Trtand, New Hampshire and Vermont have not at one time or another in those years gone outside the law to reap revenge. Study of the figures show an interesting relationship between industrial conditions and mob violence. In 1892, 100 whites and 155 Negroes were lynched and in the following year 46 white and 154 Negroes. Those were the years which set high records for lynching. They also were the years of financial and industrial depression more severe than at any time since. Dropped With Prosperity By 1896, when prosperity was returning, lynchings dropped to fiftyone whites and eighty Negroes and in 1900 to eight whites and 107 Negroes. By 1914, when the war boom struck industry, the figures showed only three whites and fortynine Negroes paid the penalty in ‘Judge Lynch's” grim court. But 1919, when the war boom was passing, saw the figures go up to eightyfour. Since then the trend, until this year, generally has been downward. reaching its low level of ten in 1929. To understand the present state of mind in parts of the southern states, one must remember that close to 40 per cent of the total population south of the MasonDixon line is black. Tw r o states, Mississippi and South Carolina, are more than 50 per cent black. In 200 counties out of 1,364 in the southern states, Negroes are in the majority. Approximately 20 per cent of the Negroes are illiterate. There is little provision to combat feeblemindedness, perverted developnfent and insanity. AH Parts Not Affected Yet the problem is not acute to the point of violence in all parts of the south. Virginia has not had a lynching or other show of violence in more than two years. In Louisiana there lias not been a lynching in many years. In many sections there seems to be apparent content. South Carolina and George, perhaps, are the centers of the greatest tension, and Atlanta, a city with a large industrial population of both races and chosen center for racial agitation, would appear the point of maximum unrest. •

Test Huge Flying Boat Dll United Press FRIEDRICHSHAFEN, Germany, Aug. 25.—Final tests of the Domier flying boat DO-X, largest in the world, will be carried out this week in preparation for the ship’s flight across the Atlantic ocean to New York. The new American-built motors for the craft were given a final work out Sunday in preparation for the test flights from Lake Constance in the next few days. The flight to America was expected to start sometime in September. THEME SONG IS DOOMED Public Tired of Hearing “Plugging” Contests on Screen, Says Experts. Du United Prats HOLLYWOOD, Aug. 25. The theme song of this piece is that theme songs are doomed. Not that the public is tired of music, but it is tired of hearing some young man (or girl) announce what a swell day it happens to be and then croon a song about it. The reason for this is obvious, according to Victor Baravalle, Radio pictures musical director. “Today the public, as always, wants good music, properly rendered and with a legitimate excuse for being played or sung, but it will no longer accept song pluggers’ contests on the screen,” he says.

ANDREE'S DIARY LIKELY TO BE KEPJ SECRET Ship, Bearing Bodies of Lost Polar Explorers, Hurries Home. Bii United Press STOCKHOLM, Sweden, Aug. 25. The sealing vessel Brattvaag, hurrying ahead of the rapidly forming Arctic ice, may reach Tromsoe on the northern coast of Norway, by Sept. 1, with the bodies of Salomon August Andree, Swedish polar balloonist, and his two companions, frozen in the ice on White’s island for thirty-three years. Latest reports reaching here said all these bodies of the daring Swedish balloonists, first to seek the North Pole by air, were on board the little sealing ship. Meanwhile, the Swedish government prepared for the ceremonious official reception of the dead heroes when the bodies reach Stockholm. The government plans to receive all three with national honors, Andree and his companions, Nils Strindberg and Knut H. F. Fraenkkel. The disposition of the precious diary, found on Andree’s fully clothed and startingly well-pre-served body, frozen solid in the ice, remained uncertain today. Reports said Dr. Gunnar Horn, leader of the scientific party, which found the bodies on Aug. 6, at the last camp of the Andree expedition, had decided not to publish the diary before the Swedish and Norwegian governments had had first option. It was believed the officials would hold up publication of the secrets locked for a generation in that little book beneath the ice

CONGRESS RACE EXCITING GAME, BROUN ASSERTS Columnist Is Accused of Atheism, Hears. Threat of Suit for Libel. IHi United Press NEW YORK, Aug. 25.—Heywood Broun. New York columnist running for congress on the Socialist ticket, issued a statement today saying he is finding politics “a vastly exciting business.” “In the course of the week.” he said, “I have made my first outdoor speech from the top of a step ladder, I have been threatened with a suit for libel by an irate Lieutenant of Mrs. Ruth Pratt, my Republican opponent; I have been called an atheist and a Communist by a Republican correspodent arid I have been called a ‘clownish demagogue’ by the official Communist newspaper. “There has been considerable comment on the fact that there are a number of actors actively supporting my candidacy. People seem to think that there is something funny about actors taking an interest in public affairs. Just as they seem to think it is funny for a newspaperman to go into politics. “The truth is that unemployment has hit the actors harder than it has hit almost any group of workers. More than 1,000 men and women in the past six mouths have left the vaudeville field alone to look for jobs. There is nothing particularly funny about that.” Additional members of the ‘Broun-for-Congress” committee were announced, including Ethel Barrymore, Frank Crowninshield, Brock Pemberton. Arthur Garfield Hays, Oswald Garrison Villard, Walter Winchell, John Farrar, John Dewey, and the four Marx brothers. ENGINE KILLS NEGRO Crushed Under Wheels After Falling From Speeding Automob ; le.
