a romance which had its inception in
Virginia was eliminated yesterday in

many obstacles reached Washington
and were made man and wife by the
Rev. Frederick D. Power, pastor Of
Vermont Avenue Christian Church
The attachment between Mr.. Connor
and the young woman who Is now his
wife is OF long standing. but parental
objection made their union more or less
remote They, however, decided as 50
many have done before them, to take
the bit IN their teeth" and an elopement
was planned.
Miss Chapman went TO spend the night
with a girl frlend-at least. that was
what she told her parents-and Mr..
Connor decided to attend a dance which
was being given. Instead Of carrying
out their supposed purposes the young
people met outside of town and waited
for darkness before starting for the rail-
road station. Even after a wait Of half
an hour there and finally getting safely
aboard the train. their fears were not
allayed.
With true regard to an old precedent
the train encountered n wreck near Char
lottesville and was delayed lifetime
at least. that was what 1t seemed to the
young folks. However, they finally
reached Washington and. with the as

The Dilemma Of the South.

No man who really loves the South
will regret its current transformation
from an agricultural community to
community of industrial and COM
merciaI activity as we'll There lies
it's only profitable escape from falIow
fields and worn-out soil It's agricul-
turaI richness will always be notable.
It's harvests will always be bountiful.
But II cannot attain to its full use
fuIness and its full prosperity until
its trade is In its own hands, its
mineral wealth is uncovered for its
own profit, and its manufactured sup
plies obtained as far as is advan-
tageGus from its own mills.
In the light of that prospect, this
statement from the current issue Of
The Manufacturers Record is ex-
tremely impressive:
From every part of the South :"
there Is a cry for men. In the cotton
fields. on rice and sugar plantations. on
the trucking farms. in the-mines and the
furnaces. and in the numbering camps
and the cotton mills there Is scarcity
OF labor. Building operations are delayed
by the inability TO find carpenters and
bricklayers even though extravagantly
high prices are being offered. In the cen
trail South IL seems almost impossible to
secure sufficient supply OF laborers TO
Increase the development OF manufaC-
turing and mining TO the extent which
the pressing consumpttve demand jus
titles.
How true it is that this is the
great problem which every business
man in the South, whether he be
manufacturer. railroad operator, or
farmer. is facing!" The wage now
paid for unskilIed labor is so high
that the negro who works half the
week can loaf the balance of his
time and yet live in afTluence So
much work calls out for men that
If the whole force Of negroes worked
seven days in the week. the need
would be only half met What is the
South to do?
The only relief in sight lies in the
encouragement of immigration, and
the best men of the South shake their
heads over the admission to Amer
lean citizenship Of a great horde of
low-standard Europeans and Asiatics.
Yet they must have help, and it is
characteristic that in this dilemma
the South is weighing the effect of
the immigration which will supply
that help, not in the light of its
| own problem alone, but in the light
of the problems of the whole country.
The Southerner has played the cav
alier long enough. He has his own
responsibilities to meet Let his
neighbors solve their difficulties
whether due TO immigration or to
anything else-as they may. He can
best serve the country to which he
is now so conspicuously loyal by de-
veloping his commercial and indus
trial opportunities as rapidly as he
can do so substantially.
If immigrants are needed. the South
I can surely devise means Of encourag-
| ing immigration OF the kind it de-
men, as we'll as it's agriculturists
and railroad men, are meeting in an
nual conventions. If they are in ear
nest-and no one who knows them
can doubt their earnestness-theyw will
| find a way to obtain the labor they
need without inviting destruction,
either present or future, by horde of
Yandals.
