U. S. NEGROES TO FRANCE.
Hundreds of Americans Flock to Work
on Docks at Base Ports for "Uncle
Sam

American Training Camp in France
Especially. Attracted by the high
wages being paid by Uncle Sam"
hundreds of American Negroes are
flocking to France, especially to the
base ports, where they are being en-
ployed as dock laborers.
The average wage paid is $4S a
month, and in addition the Negroes re-
ceive free board, lodging and washing.
The Negroes make good workers and
are given the status of civilians. The
French colonisls (Negroes from French
territory in Africs) all are engaged in
the war, which probably is the chief
reason why the American Negroes are
received as equals by the French sold
iers and civilians.
The French cannot understand the
attitude of the average White Ameri-
can towards his black fellow country
man.

Brief Bits of News and Comments on
Men and Measures.
SOCIAL WORK OF TWO RACES.
Corporation of Whites and Negroes Dis
cussed With View to Advancing the
Interests of All Glasses.

Hampton, Va.-What social service
really needs to be rendered. How can
we best do our common work? How
can we learn of one another? How can
we gain better racial cooperation9
These questions were recently dis
cussed frankly and alphabetically,
when some 20 White southern secre-
taries of charities and correction Cor
social workers) met a group of repre-
sentative Colored social workers, in an
informal conference on racial coopera-
ton, during the Pittsburgh meeting of
the National Conference of Charities
and Correction.
Miss Margaret Laing, of Columbia.
S. c., who was directly responsible for
the conference, stated that the social
service work for Colored people in Co.
lumbia, S. c., originated through the
efforts of a White university student
who had received his inspiration from
Prof. Josiah Morse, a firm believer in
the Negroes self-reliance, whose service
on the university commission on the
southern race question is widely known
and respected. Miss Laing has found
that Celored workers take more inter
est in social cases than can White
workers.
Dean George w. Cook, of Howard
University, an experienced worker, de-
clared that the idea of race cooperation
must prevail. "White and Colored peo-
pie can work together on social service
boards Throughout the South, includ-
ing the City of Washington, mixed
boards have been and are doing fine
social uplift work. Christian charity
demands that more should be done for
Negroes, whose wage scale is low COM
pared with that of Whites doing SINH
lar work"

worth said he had made a careful study
of the question, and was convinced that
prohibition of beer manufacture would
result in a shortage of not less than
forty per cent in the supply of yeast
in the country.
In support of his statement Mr.. Long
worth had printed in the Record a
statement from George w. Lester, vice
president of the Fleischmann Company,
that "the sudden unadjusted applica-
ton of prohibition would result in in
sufficiency of yeast in our cities for a
considerable period of time, in some
places so extreme as to make it i'm
possible for the bakers to supply their
normal trade"
''To sum up briefly" continued Mr..
LongUorth, "the situation seems to be
indisputably this:-Malt sprouts under
modern processes of yeast making are
an absolute necessity, forming as they
do one third of the contents of the
mash from which yeast is developed.
Mr.. Longworth said that personally
he was opposed to the prohibition of
manufacturing beer for other reasons,
one because it reduced revenues, and
another because it deprived the poor
man of his drink.
rNo matter what one IS views NAV be
upon prohibition as an ethical ques-
tion,'' he finished, "it seems to me that
our highest duty as members of Con-
gress is to see to it that through no
action of ours may a shortage be caused
in the bread supply of the country
while we are at war"

Ny dear Mr.. Mayor
1t has been recently called to my at
tention that a dispensary has been es-
tablished at 4746 So. Wabash Ave-, and
that all Colored people have been ad-
vised to attend this dispensary, ire
spectfve of whether they live in the
district or not.
The Colored people of the second
and third wards have been highly ap-
preciative of the extension of the
survey to the South Side, but they are
unalterably opposed to any attempt to
segregate them. If the attendance at
any dispensary is built up on geograph-
zeal lines, you will find no objections
among the Colored people.
1 call this matter to your attention,
so that you will see that such discrim-
ination is not practiced.
As 1 have said before, there seems
to be some member of the Municipal
Tubercular Sanitarium who is bent
upon humiliating the Colored people.
Respectfully yours,

1t has recently been called to my

that a new dispensary is about to be
established at 4746 So. Wabash Ave-,
and that Colored people have been ad-
vised, in the future, to attend this

The people of the second and third
wards have been highly appreciative
of the extension of the survey to the
South Side, but they are unalterably
opposed to such discrimination as this.
If the attendance at the clinic is based
upon geographical lines, there will be
no objection, 1 am sure. You will but
find great opposition if this diserimina-
ton is practiced.
Heretofore the public has received
the survey with open arms. Any such
limitation of civic rights as this, if
practiced, will mean the discontinuance
of the survey, the withdrawal of the
survey physicians from the Sanitarium,
and the hostility of the pulpits of the
South Side against the Sanitarium.
You are aware of the consequences of
this as well as / am.
1 desire that you see to it that my

ileges of any other people, and that

shall not be practiced by any member
of the Municipal Tubercular Sanitarium.

CONDEMNS PATENT MEDICINE
RAID ON CHINA.
National tuberculosis Association De-
plores Recommendation of U. s. Com
merce Department to Fake Remedy
Concerns.

New York, July 23.-Reeent action
of the U. S. Department of Commerce
in recommending China to American
patent medicine interests as a good
field in which to develop their business,
is unanimously condemned by anti
tuberculosis workers all over the coun-
try through a resolution adopted by the
National Association for the Study and
Prevention of tuberculosis made public
to-day.
1t is~maintained that the information
and advice on this subject given in the
Department Special Consular Report
No. 76 practically places a branch of
the United States Government on rec
ord as promoting a traffic that has been
condemned as an evil by every reput-
able medical or public health body in
the country, both official and unofficial.
This is of particular moment to anti
tuberculosis workers in view of the fact
that the sale of alleged consumption
cures" constitutes one of the most
tragic phases of the patent medicine
traffic.
The National Association in its resolu-
lions severely criticizes the Depart
ment's action in these words:
Resolved, that the National Asso-
citation for the Study and Prevention
of tuberculosis condemns such action
on the part of the United States De
partment of Commerce, and that the
Executive Secretary be instructed to
forward a copy of this resolution to the
Secretary of said Department, urging
that hereafter the influence of the
United States Government should not
be used in support of the patent medi-
cine business.
The National Association estimates
that not less than $2O,OOO,OOO is in
vested in the business of manufacture
ing and exploiting fake cures for tu-
berculosis, and that the annual income
from these concerns and individuals is
$15,OOO,OOO. About one-third of this
amount is spent for advertising, leaving
a profit of $1O,OOO,OOO a year, which
is characterized by the Association as
"blood money! taken from ignorant
consumptives. There are over 500 of
these so-called fake tuberculosis rem
edies listed. No drug or specific cure
for this disease has yet been found,
it is declared; but, if discovered early
enough, tuberculosis may be cured by
proper medical direction and the appli-
cation of fresh air, rest, and good food.
1t is pointed out that China has not
yet recovered from the effects of the
opium habit that was foisted upon it by
Western civilization and that it is par
ticularly unchivalrous of the United
States Government to help foist a new
evil upon this people while they are in
the throes of recognizing their society
on more intelligent and democratic
basis.

Heretofore the public has received

ANY such limitation of civic rights as

continuance of the survey, the with
drawal of the survey physicians from
