NEGRO QUARTERS RAKED TO FIND WHITE CHILD

CHICAGO. Jan. 2?. Search of the negro quarters of Chicago was being made by the police today In an attempt to And Marjorie Delbridge, a 14-year-old -white girl, and Mrs. Camilla Jackson, the negro "mammy" who reared her from Infancy. According to tho police, Mrs. Jackson, through a ruse last night, took the child from the home of Mrs. Louis Brock in whose custody she had been placed by the juvenile court. Marjorie has . been a football of fortune in the Chicago courts for Severn months since Inspectors of the department of public welfare urged that she be taken from Mrs. Jackson nd negro environment and placed in a white home. It was shown in the hearings that the white girl was given Mrs. Jackson to rear as her own, by the mother, an actress, and that the negro "mammy" had faithfully fulfilled the trust for fourteen years. Recently, Mrs. Jackson announced that her funds being exhausted, she had given up the legal fight to retain Marjorie and the child was placed in the Brock home pending a final hearing of the case today.

PUBLISHERS FACE CONTINUED HIGH PRICE OF PAPER

CHICAGO, Jan. 27. That newspaper publishers who have been forced by the price of news print paper to charge two cents for papers cannot hope to go back to the one cent rate, was a warning which a hundred or more newspaper publishers took home with them today after a conference here yesterday with several manufacturers of print paper. The warning was offered by Alexander B. Smith, managing director of the Abitibi Paper Company of Iriquois Fallas, Canada. At the conference, an informal

meeting, the publishers and the paper

manufacturers, representing the American Newspaper Publishers' Association and the Print Paper Manufacturers' Association, voted to appoint a committee to meet immediately after the delivery of the report on the print paper situation next week by the Federal Trades Commission to see if knowledge gained from the report does not point out a way to an adjustment of the problem of the high prices. A hint of the possibility of prosecution of print paper manufacturers for alleged violation of federal anti-trust laws, was said to have been contained in the announcement by Joseph E. Davie3, member of the Federal Trades Commission, who attended the meeting, that the commissioners have turned over "certain evidence" to the department of justice-for action.
