RACE PREJUDICE.

The race problem has been q
stumbling block to nations. 1t
is easy to decry the folly of race
prejudices. But we are not all
philosophers. And it is too harsh
to blame only the Californians
for their dislike of aliens differ
ent in race. The Greeks and
Romans, the Hebrews and Hin
dus, the Chinese and japanese,
even the Teutons and the Anglo
Saxons, have during their his
tory often shown disposition
to regard themselves as the only
chosen sons Of God, and to place
other races under the ban of
"barbarians'' or interiors" Nor
do | ignore the indisputable fact
Of an inequality existing among
races, as there is such an in
equality among human beings Of
the same race. Injustice comes
only when the color of the skin
is made the sole criterion of in
feriority.-Dr. Toyokichi Iyena-
ga, Lecturer at University Of
Chicago.

Labor's Greatest Need

The following is taken from the report
of General Secretary Treasurer Jere l..
Sullivan of the Hotel, Restaurant and
Rartenders' International League of
America to the eighteenth general con-
yention held in San Francisco:
Probably no feature of the American
labor movement presents so serious a
phase as that which is offered and which
appears to indicate intolerable indffer-
ence and lack OF tangible support of its
labor press. For years the workers
were the victims of criminal misrepre-
sentation and biased news distribution,
they suffered until they saw the need
OF combating their opponents with simi-
lar weapons, a press owned and con-
trolled by organized labor.
Unfortunately for the workers and
for the greater advancement of the la
Dor press, they did not appreciate that
it required capital to establish and con-
tnue to print the news; the workers
refrained from looking deep into the
subject before reaching unjust conelu-
sions: they were willing to peruse the
editorials and articles which champiOned
their side OF the bread and butter ques-
tion. but were listless and backward in
digging up the required financial sup
port They made critical comparisons
between the daily business-supported
press and the labor publication.
Therefore it follows that if organ
lied labor expects to make proper head
way it must have its vehicles for the
dissemination of news and educational
articles, and it cannot expect few men
here and there to make sacrifice of
time, talent and money, in order that
the millions OF wage workers, organ
lied and unorganized, may benefit
"Organized labor must have its own
press, and there is but one way for it
to make its wants possible of realiza-
tion-support what they have by a fair
share OF patronage and encourage the
editors and publishers to steadily i'm
prove, which they would be gratified to
do with assurance OF proper support
