CRIME INCREASING.

There is a noticeable increase in
crime among the Negroes. Almost
daily there are reports of hold-ups by
thieving men and women. Strange
characters are flocking into the Twin
Cities, and the police are unable to
locate many of the offenders. The
situation is critical, and was caused
by negligence on the part of many
policemen to investigate conditions.
They have been too liberal with the
Negro element-and now we have the
worst gang of vagrants of any city.
A general cleanup should be made.
Recently roundup was made and
several whites were arrested. 1t is
the desire of all good citizens, that
the law be enforced. Crime among
Negroes causes greater race prejudice.
The rough and vicious Negro has
gained a foothold and his presence
is disastrous to all of his race.
Thugs, dopesters, gunmen and every
undesirable finds it "soft" in Mime
apolis, because of the existence of
dives, buffet flats and other .lawless
joints. Vag Law should be strictly
enforced. The Star has long ago
called the attention of those author
tiles, but they have let matters go so
far, that they are now powerless to
stop this wave of crime.
