est in them. Thus the arrest of sail
or by policeman may turn crowd
into mob.
1t is not strange, therefore, that the
slumbering antogonism which has
made the relations of the whites and
the blacks in this country peculiarly
Difficult to adjust should at ia time like
this be dangerously aroused. The
peril is on the whole greater in the
North than in the South. The South
ern way of dealing with the negro
problem may leave much to be desir-
ed. Not only is the voter deprived
of his constitutional rights, but the
colored criminal is also deprived OF
his legal rights. Suppression OF bal
lots and lynchings make a bad record.
At the same time, the South has learn
ed better than the North how to get
on with the negro. 1t has kindly
feeling for i'm in the main, though IL
expects him to keep his place me
North is quite as open to race preJu-
dice and less Hateful in the expression
of it,
Furthermore the problem for the
North has been greatly complicated
by the tremendous influx Of negro Ia
bor during the war. The blacks from
the South, earning more money thah
they ever dreamed of earning before,
with a degree of social liberty hlther-
to unexperincd, more independent
in some cases insolent-in their attl-
tude toward the whites, have became
disposed to resent quickly acts 10
which in former days they would have
sullenly submitted. In other words
the new whine of prosperity has gone
to their heads 1t is futile to denouhce
them; it is still more futile TO seek
to thrust them back into the old con
ditions of economic and social depeh-
dence. The outstanding fact IS lhal

RACE RIOTS AND THE UNDERLY-
ING CAUSES.

From the Philadelphia Inquirer:
The race riots, first in Washington,
now in Chicago, should not be regard
ed as mere outbreaks of mob violence
purely local in character. They are
manifestations of conditions which
prevail wherever the whites and the
blacks live together in unstable so
cial equilibrium. To restore order is.
of course. the first duty of the authori-
ties Unless the rioters on both sides
are sharup dealt with. much more
serious consequences than the killing
or wounding ia few hundred persons
may follow.
Race feeling may have provoked the
riots in the first place but they could
hardly have assumed such proportions
had not large measure of social
restlessness already existed II is not
necessary to impute the direct respon'
sibility to Bolshevist or |. W. w. agi-
tators. although these may have had
a hand in the mischief That is. in
fact. too easy an explanation. Nari-
our episodes all over the country have
shown clearly enough that unsettle-
ment of the public mind which is one
Of the legacies of war. In such cir
cumstances comparatively unimport-
ant quarrels become contagious, and
infect crowds that have no real inter

There are some folks and

Would Increase Skill.

shall be very much disappointed II
the latest decision to Foster Junior
championship on the part Of the national
body does not result in permanent en-
thusiasm and decided increase in
skill with the pleasant advantages
which come to the low mark youth or
man.
Il was proposed Mt the annual
meeting by several OF the elegates
that passing recognition be paid TO the
offers Of courses for the years la20.
1921 and 1922. To those who have at
tended the annual meeting for many
years the proffers seemed A bit out OF
the ordinary. for it seldom has been
done, although at the meetings OF other
associations Il is quite the style
1t is presumed that priority law
may bring with II that attention which
usually accrues 20 those who ara first
on the ground. but ! hardly think that
this will suffice in tournaments Of
national interest. II the courses prof
fered are worthy OF .ne amateur or
open championship then the links will
secure due recognition the plea that
years advance knowledge will aid the
club has little weight. because any club
which would offer would know that the
course was good enough for such an
event at any time.
