A BUSINESS TRANsAc TON.

The difference existing between the Arkansas State Fair Association and the oakIawn race track owners. as tb the cost of holding future fairs on that course. should be settled in Il business-like manner, and most prooably will be
 The Arlsaneas State Fair Assneia- ton, representing as it does the pro- gresslye citizenship of Hot Springs, wants the Oakiawn course for it's fu- tnre fairs. But the association is not going to be gigged.
 The Oaklawn race track future is hinged as much upon the citizen ship of Hot Springs as is the future Of the Arkansas State Fair hinged un- on the good behavior of the race track ownership.
 En the past the State Fair Asso. eiation has spent from sl,20O 10 ST. 300 eadh year on the property, has helped in it's upkeep, and that money has not been waster.
 The race track ownership now want about s5.00O for the use of the course for one week.
 If the Arkansas State Fair Asso- ciaticn as dividend producing insti tuition. it would be fair for the race track ownership to expect profits, or at least to expect all the main tenance of the grounds by borne by the association.
 But the Arkansas State Fair Asso- citation is an institution supported by ally by the people of this city for the good of the city and the county and the state, and does not pay oth- CT dividends t1han that general good received.
 We believe that the race track ownership and the directors of the Arkansas State Fair can get togeth- CT and arrive at fair price for the use of this course but we do not be- lieve that the association will pay any such sum as s5,00O for weeks use of the course. nor do We believe that that tic tic race track ownership will force the Arkansas State Fair Asso- slatien .e seek another site.

SCHOOL BOARD IS
 SEVERELY CRITICISED
WHITE PAINTERS DENOUNCE THE BOARD AND PROTEST AGAINST

Trouble Grew Out of Repainting of School By Negroes Employed By
 McBryde & McCamm0n.

Members of the Pine Bluff School Board were severely criticised last night by "The White Mechanics Pro- tective Association of Pine Bluff" an organization composed of union paint CTS, carpenters and members of other crafts, and strong protest was regist- cred against the board permitting any of the repair work or painting now being done on the public schools to be done by negroes.
 The trouble and the formation of the organization is the result of negroes being employed in painting the Sixth Avenue School. The contract for the work was let to McBryde and McCam- mon over bids presented by number of union painters.
 Those who attended the meeting were very much aroused over the matter and statement issued by them is very caustic in it's criticism of the members of the school board. They
