ENGLAND, TOO,HAS
 A RACE PROBLEM
Home Coming Soldiers Resent the Presence in Britain of So Many Ne groes, Brought There by Exigen-
 cies of World War.

London, July 17--Race riots in the northern part of England and Wales have created d stir thruout the coun- try, principally because of the novelty of such occurrences in these islands.
 Normally there are few negroes or aliens with colored skins to be seen in Great Britain, but the exigencies of the war caused the importation of a large number of them to work on sea- port docks and to recruit the ranks of manual laborers depleted by the call for fighting men. They were brought from various parts of the world, South Africa and the West Indies supplying the most of them. Many Arabs also were imported.
 Repatriation of these colored men has been slow, with the consequence that many demobilized British sol diers have had what to them seemed the bitter experience of seeing stran- gers engaged at profitable employ ment while they, themselves, looked in vain for work.
 Resentment over this state of af- fairs quickly developed into hatred when the soldiers observed that the strangers were trying to cultivate the acquaintance of white girls. A num- Der of negroes took white wives.
 A medical officer in the troubled dis trict describes the situation as very serious both from a health and eco homie point of view, and asserts that 100000 demobilized men are still without employment while negroes are employed. "Is this not a gross in , justice? ?" he asks. "It is nothing less than iniquitous that the men who have fought for their country should finc the jobs they need occupied by ne groes."

SLAIN IN MEXICO LISTED.
Names of s17 American Victims Made
 Public in Washington.

Washington, July 16.--A list of Sir American citizens, murdered in Mex leo since December, 191G, more than twice the number of Americans lost on the Lusitania. was made public here today. With agitation in the Senate for an official list of such mur- ders, which it is estimated will num- Der $40, the publication of the incom- plete list today was welcomed by sen ators earnestly Investigating the sub iect fine iist made public was com piled from data on file in the office of the National Association for the Pro- tection of American Rights in Mexico, with headquarters in New York.
 No reparation has ever been ob- tained in any of the BIT cases enumer- ated; and in the majority of instances not even formal protest has been filed with the Mexican government, nor have reports on many of the cases on file at the State Department been made public.

MAY COST VOTE OF IRISH" Democrats Stand to Lose if Treaty Is
 Ratified, Gore Says.

New York, July 17.-Senator Thom- as P. Gore, Democrat, Oklahoma, who was at the Waldorf on busi- ness, says that in the judgment of careful political observers in the Dem ocratic camp the ratification of the League of Nations treaty in it's pres ent form will drive nearly all the Irish out of the Democratic party and make the election of Democrat as president impossible for years to come.
 "The respectable people of the world, following the enormous sacri- flee of men and money in the world war, expect that something will come out of it that will minimize the likli- hood of future wars and multiply the obstacles to such wars" said the blind senator. "To wholly eliminate war in the future is perhaps too much to ex- pect, you cannot stop war with wish bone. l am of the conviction that the best way to provide some sort of a best way to eliminate war is to pro- vide some sort of a referendum vote by the people"
