The society has been engaged for some
time In the endeavor to complete within
the Monument the collection OF memorial

was q purpose in the conception Of the
Monument that all the states should be
represented therein. The only states not
SO represented at this time are Idaho.
Washington, Oklahoma, Arizona, New

Should Forbid immigration.

The speaker commented on the fact
that there are no United States laws
forbidding the immigration of african
black people," and none against their
demand for citizenship. During the past
ten years So 631 African black immigrant
aliens came into the United States. about
% per cent of them being illiterates. A
small percentage Of them came direct
from Africa. and most Of them went to
various northern states.
II believe" said Prof. jerks, that
these African blacks are undesirable i'm
migrants. For the same reason, urged
with greater force, that we exclude Chi
neSe and Japanese. We should exclude
the African black man."
1t Is estimated that 100 legitimate fam
lilies Of negro men and their white wives
live in Minneapolis. This. as in the
south, tends to the gradual elimination
of the blacks and the increase of those
who pass as white.
Prof. jerks said he agreed with DR..
Henry Van Dyke that the negro problem
was the most pressing one facing the
United States today. and he offered the
following suggestions in the way of REM
edy: Stop immigration; stop intermar-
rage; stop illegal nhscegenation: define
negro uniformly; stop murderous race
riots: educate the child to be all he S
capable Of being; establish commiss on
of experts, preferably by private enter
prise, to study thoroughly the negro sit
uatiOn.

Negro Problem Discussed.

One of the papers before the anthro-
biologists was by Prof. Albert l.. jerks
of the University of Minnesota on the
negro problem in the United States.
1t was especially recommended by Prof.
jerks that a bureau or commission
should be established and properly en-
dowed, preferably with priya'H funds, SO
as to remove the investigators from the
ill effects of political influence, to study
the entire negro problem.
I'VE must have facts said Prof.
jerks. For instance. while few ne
groes claim that they are the equals of
white Americans, while the majority of
white Americans believe the negro to be
inferior to the white American, a re-
spectacle body of scientists claim that
there is no evidence as yet to show that
the negro is not the peer Of the white
man. What are the facts? Opinion and
prejudice We have in abundance. Now
We should have the facts"
