The Haywood County Army Y. M. c.
A. organization gave a luncheon at
the Pythian Hotel Wednesday. Prac-
tically all the committeeman from the
different districts of the county were
present and listened to a delightful
talk from DR.. Ben Cox, pastor of the
Central Baptist church, Memphis. DR..
Cox has been visiting for the past sew
eral weeks at army environments in
the south and is in a position to know
the workings of the Y. M. c. A. in

nobly to the other causes, there is no
doubt but that she will rally to this
great movement to make the moral

DENIED LABOR UNIONS
BROUGHT ON RACE RIOTS
Frank Morrison, Secretary of A. F.
of L., Makes Public Telegram
From Illinois Labor Leader.

Vigorous denial Of charges that labor
unions were responsible for the East
st. Louis race riots Is made by Frank
Morrison, secretary of the American
Federation Of Labor, who. in the alb
sence of President Gompers. has issued
a formal statement.
Applying his denial, Mr.. Morrison
made public telegram received from
Victor Olander, Observation-Disclosures of
the Illinois Federation OF Labor, which
has been forwarded as the national
organizations reply to a message from
the Boston branch of the Equal Rights
League.
The telegram from Mr.. Olander brand
ed as "viciously untrue" charges that
trade unions were in any way respon-
sible for the riots. It is pointed out
in the message that the Illinois trade
union movement has been seeking to
organize the workers of both races
and that many local unions in the Sec
ton have negro members, some ex-
clusiyely.

Knows of No Aid From League.

In this connection the writer says:
II have not learned of a single in
stance here where such associations as
the Negro Equal Rights League have
aided or encouraged negro workers to
join together for purpose of self help
in trade unions, to prevent exploita-
lions, to secure recognition of economic
rights, to obtain improvements in work
ing conditions, shorter hours or better
wages
After stating that investigation has
shown that large numbers OF negroes
have been attracted to st. Louis by
false advertisements of interruptions
employment agencies, and that as a re-
suit social and economic conditions
have been seriously disarranged, the
writer says:
"It is shocking to me that such or
CARNATIONS as the alleged Negro Equal
Rights League have little or nothing
to say about the fraud practiced against
negroes by inscriptions employing
interests; that such associations re-
main discreetly silent while southern
negroes are cheated into leaving their
homes for northern cities and towns
already overcrowded, exhibit no con-
Germ regarding miserable living and
working conditions which many ne
groes are forced to endure under such
circumstances, and offer to protect
against vicious explorations Of labor
through which blacks and whites suffer
alike
