Even the most intelligent negro |
eaders themselves declare that the !
negroes of the south exist within a
more kindly environment than do
The negroes Of the north
The truth OF the matter is, news
papers like the Chicago Chronicle
know very little about the many
difficult phases of the negro prob
lem They assume to occupy broad |
and patriotic attitude toward this |
unfortunate race, but do little more |
than abuse and misrepresent the
white people OF the south. They do
not study the problem nor do they
seek to ascertain how the white peo-
pie may he most helpful to the ne

south do not intermarry with people
of African descent and socially in

There is not a city in America
where negroes have been more bru-

newspaper has the effrontery to lee

struggling in good faith and under
adverse circumstances to aid and
uplift negroes. Indeed, the task OF

Ter but for the mischievous influence
of such newspapers as the Chroui-
