Worlds Work

The Worlds Work for November
contains the second of Booker 7.
Washlngton's articles, entitled, Chap
ters from my Experience" It is a
chapter dealing with the so-called
'lntellectuals" of the race, and ex-
plains in detail the point of view of
the Tuskegee educator with regard to
the talented gentlemen who compose
the 'intellectuals." The Worlds
Work is making much of these arti-
cles, well illustrating them, and Civ
ing them wide circulation. The next
chapter, to appear in the December
number, will be even more interesting
in its discussion of the cleavage be-
tween the teachings of the Tuskegee
educator and those Of the ones who
are disposed to find fault with his ed
ucational program.

Baltimore. Nov. u.

bdllmOre, NOV. 2I.
The Democrats in first branch city
councils tonight passed to a second
reading a favorGbly reported ordinance
for the segregation of Negroes in this
city. The Democratic majority will
adopt the o. dinance, which was pro-
posed because of the depreciating effect
on values of proprietors in the residen-
tial section of colored families securing
homes IN those neighborhoods. On sew
eral avenues the presence of Negro resi-
dents has deprecated values from 80 to
so per cent.
The committee in its report says that
unless some early and effective Solu-
tlon IS found, more friction and disorder
between the races will result" and that
public policy demands preventive legis-
lation."
The report further says: mo fault is
found with the Negroes ambitions, but
the committee feels that Baltimoreans
will be Criminally negligent as to their
future happiness if they suffer the Ne
groes' ambitions to live in white neigh
bOrhoods to go unchecked. The exist,
ence of such an ambition is a constant
menace to the social quietude and prop
erty values of every white neighborhood
in Baltimore"
The ordinance forbids white persons
moving into an obviously Negro resi-
Dental block, and lays a restraining
hand on Negroes who would locate in
white residential sections. The commit
tee declares there is no driving of any
body into a circumscribed pale
If the ordinance is passed, the Ne
groes will at once appeal to the United
States courts.
