SOUTHERN STATES LOSING NEGROES; AUTHORITIES TO COMBAT MIGRATION

Atlanta June , —(INS) A new negro migration to the north is reported underway, and authorities of some of the Southern states, especially IjOtilsiana and Alabama, arc debating a number of proposals to com)>at it. One of these would be the enactment of legislation, similar to Georgia which makes It unlawful for yny labor agent to recruit negro workers for any city outside tile state. Agents from Northern cities are particularly active now, it is said. Another proposal would make conditions more attractive for the negro, so he would not be lured away so easily by promises of better jobs and more money in the North. Best authorities lu tlic South admit living conditions for the negro are anything but deaireable. The only way. it is pointed out, for the Southern cities to keep their negro workers is Id build better schools, better houses and better streets in the Negro sections, and higTier wages and more money for recreational purposes and public parks. Losing Population Tlie cities of Birmingham and New Orleans are said to be losing negro population steadily, and vigorous campaigns have been launched in both localities to check the exodus. The labor commissioner of Louisiana is authority for the statement that the building trades in New Orleans will face a ‘crisis’’ if the ranks of negro workers in the employ of contracting as his home, officials have determined to make the three-day celebration in his honor the greatest fete St. Louis has ever staged. "In view of the unprecedented reception given to Charlies A. Lindbergh by Washington and New York'’ said a statement issued to the Mayor Victor Miller, "I want to call particular attention to the necessity of his homecoming welcome measuring up to the nation's best.j' The trans-Atlantic flyer is to arrive here Friday afternoon at 4 o’clock. According to present plans, he will land at the Lambert-St. Louis field from which he took off for New York. Thousands of persons are expected at the fie'd to welcome Lindbergh. Special arrangements are being made for transportation to the field and for police and military forces to keep the landing space clear. Field Dwindles In Open Golf Championship

Oakmont Country Club. Hulton. Pa. June 15. —(United Press) —A dwindling field in the national open golf championship went out today determined to make up for yesterday’s mistakes. Not a golfer of the 131 remaining out of the original 150 did not feel that with more favorable weather conditions he would improve his score. The Jay dawned clear and good golfing weather seemd assured. Even lhe leaders, "Jimmy” Johnston of Minneapolis and Harry Hampton of Memphis. Tenn., looked forward to better rounds than those permitted by the atrocious weather of Tuesday. Bobby Jones of Atlanta, defending champion, was confident that before the day was done he would be closer to leadership of the golfing host which tramps the Huilton Hills in quest of his title. Par golf, rendered impossible by driving rain and blusjering breezes on the first day of the championship, was threatened with a severe beating today. Rev. Schmitt Says Requim High Mass The Rev. Simeon M. Schmitt said a requiem high mass at St. Mary's Catholic church this morning. Yesterday Rev. Schmitt celebrated his first solemn high mass, it being said on the 35th wedding anniversry of his parents. Mr. and Mrs. Dyuois Schmitt. Last evening, open house was held at’ the Schmitt home and several hundred people called and extended their best wishes to the celebrants. A Petter Should Be Petted, Not Chided, Park Stroller Learns Indianapolis, June 15.—(t’P)—As a guardian of public morals C. (). Kettering, is a failure, he admitted to police yesterday as he exhibited two black eyes, bruises and bumps obtained as a result of chiding a youth for “petling” in a public park here last Sunday. While strolling through the park his attention was suddenly diverted from the sunset, he said, by a "petting party” on a park bench. “This is a public park, aud you oughtn't to be doing this here," said the impromlu reformer. Today he apepared to police to bear witness of his resulting physical distress, and to assist in prosecuting the virile “petter”.

firms are further depleted. | The director of Industrial Relations of the Chamber of Commerce in New Orleans has (sued an appeal to the neg- , ros to remain where they are, pointing out the south I* the home of the Negro and that he is always "assured of the best treatment here.” The negro labor situation is reported more acute in Birmingham, and the J Chamber of Commerce there has ap-| pointed agents to watch all outgoing trains in an effort to dissuade the negroes from leaving the city. Take Legal Steps The first legal step to control the situation was taken in Alabama where the legislature has enacted a statute prohibiting any person from inducting workmen to leave the state "through grandofse promises of economic and social betterment.” Georgia has had' such a law for several years and at least a dozen have been convicted of the offense and sent to the state prison. Social workers however feel that any prohibitive legislation will defeat its own purpose. They feel that laws designed to prevent negro workmen from exercising free choice is sure to build up a structure of dissat- 1 isfaction that will tend to hasten rather than retard the exodus to the North. They deciare that fairness requires that the negro be allowed the same opportunity as white persons to learn of economic advantages of other parts ot the country.

NOT TOO LATE TO SOW BEETS Sugar Company Reports That Beets Seeded Now Have Good Chance In rply to many inquiries received at the local office and by fieldmen of the Holland-St. Louis Sugar company, announcement was made today that it was not too late to seed beets. Due to the heavy rains early in the season farmers were prevented from sowing the beet seed and a special notice has been sent out that, “while early seeding is usually dsirable. experience has shown that, under certain conditions of soil and weather, sugar beets seed ed in June make excellent tonnage-. If the land has been well prepared, beet seed can be sown up to June 20, with prospects of obtaining a good crop", the notice states. The beet acreage this year is one of the largest ever obtained by lhe local company and farmers have been busy within the last ten days sowing seed An early frost will not iuj-j>e the beets and farmers who were prevented in getting out other crops are, in n any cases, sowing beet seed now, it .-as stated. o Baltimore Publisher Begins 10,000-Mile Air Yacht Tour
