But the problem of education in the
South is far better understood to-day
than it ever was before. For the whites
as we'll as for the negroes of the South
industrial training must for some time TO
come form the. basis ofaIl seducat ton. And
while more attention has been paid in re-
cent years to the industrial education OF
the negro, there is much truth IN the
remark of President Alderma n, of Tulane
University himself! one of the most sa-
gacious educators OF the South, thai the
most effective way Of helping the negro
is to help the white man a little more
in his stupendous task The education
OF one untaught white man to the point
where it is clear to him that knowledge
and not prejudice must guide his con-
duct, and that for the honor of his name
and country and his posterity, he must
deal with these people in justice and
kindness and Christian forethought, IS
worth more to the black man himself
than the education of ten men OF ms
own race We do not believe that the
South begrudges dollar of the money
that is given to such institutions for the
negro as that at Tuskegee, Ala. But
it realizes as 1t never has before the
urgent need of such institutions for the
Southern whites If the South is to keep

larger water mains. Richmond had
ing the fire in the Habliston building,
ana this is a matter with which we can
not afford to trife. There have been sew
eral disastrous fires in this city of late,
and if We have many more such fires we
may reasonably expect an increase in in
surance rates.
But mat is not ALL A great fire in
city like Richmond is always more or
less harmful to business. Trade and IN
dustry i'll this community are in most
prosperous condition and We have no more
buildings than we need. No amount of
insurance could repay us for the loss of
such an institution as the Jefferson IIo-
tel. 1t is the part of good sense and
economy to provide as far as we are able
against destructive fires, and one of The
water supply. Chief Fuller speaks as an
expert. and he speaks the words of wis
dom. Let the City Council heed the
warning which the Chief has given.
