Climate and Laziness

From Harper's Bazar
 Take South Africa, for example Euro- peans have been there only for two or three generations in any large numbers. They have gone from the highly stimulat- ing climate of western Europe to the mod erately stimulating climate of South Af- rica. They find themselves face to face with the Zulus, and especially the Basu- tos, who within few generations have come from the unstimulating regions nearer to the equator Today we find a critical situation. The Europeans are not holding their own. The blacks are slow ly pushing them out. The Europeans ars not in danger in Cape Colony, but further north 1t is an open question what vii, become of them. The blacks not only work more cheaply than is possible for the whites. but also more indus.riously. The result Is that today about 10 per cent of the white European population is reckoned as poor whites"-a shiftless set of people, living from hand to mouth. un- trustworthy, and a danger to the whole community The most ardent advocates of South Africa as white mans land admit this. They say it is due to the great supply of black labor. which does not give the whites a chance. Doubtless that is true. but If the white men had the energy of good. solid Engishmen at nome, employers would gladly pay them much higher wages than 1t Is worth while to pay the blacks. The case Is ike that of western Texas where a rancher was talking about the prospects of the coun- try: T don't know what it is, but very one gets lazy here. I'd rather have one man fresh from Kansas Missouri than two who have been here 10 years; and I'd pay him the wages of two" AL though such a statement Is exaggerated | n l1pf to the people of South Africa are in the midst of a great struggle over the uues- tion of the best policy for dealing with the blacks. One party wants to exclude them entirely from Cape Colony. Trans vaal and the Orange Free State. leaviny them to occupy the warmer regions of Natal and Rhodesia, where the white man cannot thrive so well. The problem of whites against blacks manifests itself in economic and political forms, but fun damentally much of it seems to be a question of the effect of climate.

MISS JANE ADDAMS
 WELCOMED HOME
Mass Meeting in New York in Honor of Peace
 Advocate

New York, July 9.-Miss Jane Ad- dams, who recently returned from A peace mission in Europe. was wei comed home at mass meeting here tonight held under the auspices of peace organizations of various states Women who went with her to the recent women's peace conference at The Hague were present Speakers fn- cluded Miss Addams. Oswald c. Willard. George Foster Peabody, Prof. George W. Kirchwey of Columbia and Repre- sentative Meyer London pr. Anna Howard Shaw presided.
 Miss Addams declared she took the personal tribute accorded her as In the interest of peace She said that the first striking point she gathered In her five weeks trip abroad was that every nation involved In the war be- ifeved. as religion almost, that it's presence In the war was based entirely on question of self-defense: the next point was the evident fact that none of the warning nations now could start or receive negotiations with peace as groundwork, while a third feature, ineffaceable at all places. was the fact that there was a military party be- lieving in the supremacy of arms.
 The civil life. Miss Addams added, represented the other view of the sit uation.
 "Slowy." she continued, "the mill tary party appears to be gaining the upper hand in this battle of differing wits This war never would have oc- cured if 1t had been postponed 15 or 20 years for the feeling in school and college would have made It mpos- slble"
 Miss Addams said she had no thought of recommending a move for Presi- dent Wilson. She said she would not be guilty of such a presumptuous act. She simply advised the factors of the warning nations to meet the same ground as would two or more busi- ness men when negotiations or a deal are involved
 What is needed" she said "is ne- gotiation against militarism How that is to be accomplished, I cannot tell, but If must come"

Turtles Cause P. o. Worries

Butte Mont.-The officials in the Butte postoffice are caring for two turtles that were sent into the Butte terminal by a railway postal clerk in accordance with the parcel post rules.
 The only live things that may be sent by parcel post are bees, and they must be sent in a special carton. The railway postal clerk who sent in the turtles dis covered what the package contained when he inadvertently stuck his finger through the top of the box. He soon learned that the box did not contain bees and rid himself of the undesirable mail as fast as possible.
 Now the Butte officials are watching over pets that were sent from the At lantic coast to a town in Washington. Both the sender and the addresses have been notified of the action taken by the department. but neither has seen fit to answer, and if neither replies within 90 days the Butte officials will take up the turtle case with the department of dead letters at Washington.
