He also established a vast network of concentration camps, called gulags, in the far east. Millions more died as a result.
What was the justice system during the 1930s?
During the 1930's, African Americans almost always received the short end of the stick when in came to legal recourse. In cases such as assualt, if the victim was African Amercan and the criminal white, judges would almost always overlook all evidence or the lack there of. In other situations where the African American was the accused, court systems generally favored the whites.
Another View: Except for the so-called "Jim Crow" laws which existed in some Southern states, the law was the same for ALL Americans. There was no separate "legal system" for Blacks - it was in the way that the law was ADMINISTERED that was the subject of inequality.
What is the value of a 1935 wheat back penny with a mid mark s?
It depends greatly on the year. For example a 1909-S cent is worth several hundred dollars even in low grade while a 1952-S cent is only worth about 2-3 cents in low grade.
Washington has had dozens and dozens of stamps issued in his honor. Without a better identification, it would be hard to know what the value may be.
You need to fully identify the stamp, including knowing the catalog number, perforations, watermarks, condition and other factors. If you look it up in the catalog there is a price listed. That price is what a buyer should expect to pay a dealer for the stamp. If you are selling, you should consider yourself lucky if you get half that amount. Look for special markings. Stamps on envelopes can be worth more, particularly with picture cancellations, First Day Cancellations and special locations. Find a philatelist and ask for more information!

How much is a 3 cent us postal stamp sell for?
If you mean the purple 3-cent Jefferson stamp which came out in 1938, the answer is
