CALLS MIGRATION OF
NEGROES A MENACE
DR.. McAlpine Says Commu-
nifty Centres Are Needed.

A warning regarding the dangers OF a
great negro migration from the South to
the North was issued Yesterday by the
Rev DIR. Charles A. McAlpine of the ma
tionRl committee of the Northern Baptist
League.
Since the start OF the war hundre Is
Of thousands of negroes have poured into
New York. Chicago, Pittsburg, Detroit.
Philadelphia and other great cities" said
DR., McAlpine. They have been herded
together and crowded shamefully The
presence OF these strangers in our North
ern cities has created n social and re-
ligious problem almost without prece-
dent.
THE great migration OF negroes has
become a serious menace TO our North
ern cities. II is. indeed. a periLous thing
to have armies OF illiterate, unframed
human beings suddenly march into our
cities. The time has come for the estab
lishment OF community centres in the
negro colonies Of several Northern
cities"
DR.. McAlpine warns the churches to
take cognizance Of the problem.

SALVATION ARMY'S
CHIEF is GRATEFUL
Fund of $4,000, 900 Raised
Drive Not Yet Ouer.

The thanks OF the Salvation Army to
the public and press OF the country for
the generous assistance rendered the Sal
vationists during their recent drive were
voiced fcrvently yesterday afternoon by
Commander Evangeline Booth, who said
she feared her army" never would be
able to make the individual donors real
lie how deeply appreciative the "army"
was OF all that had been done for the
cause.
THE returned soldiers and sailors"
said Commander Booth in the course of
her statement "the conservative bust
ness men and the women who already
had toiled steadily in relief efforts since
the war began. gave the great impetus
to the drive.
This, however. do want very much
to have understood, that the campaign Ia
still uncompleted In certain sections of
the country, where II was not possible
to hold 1t on the same dates that pre-
vailed in most localities. For example,
It is not possible to go before the people
Of Chicago just yet Tor the reason
that the Cook County Council of Defence
10 obliged to fix dates, and in 30 regu-
lating all drives could not arrange ours
for last month. The same condition pre-
walls in other sections of the West, and
I mention It so that we will not be mis-
understood when the report gains cir
culation that our drive Is over and the
money raised"
Miss Booth said that although the ex-
act total of the amount raised will not
be known for some weeks. she was con-
fldent that more than the stipulated
$13,o0o.000 had been raised.

ZIONIST MOVEMENT
ADVOCATED BY TAFT
Believes Also League Will Sc
cure ye,oish Rights.

A declaration by ex-Prcsident Taft in
favor Of the Zionist movement is made
public In bulletin issued yesterday by
the Zionist Organization OF America
Mr.. Taft is quoted as saying that IL he
were in the White House he would sup
port the Balfour declaration in favor Of
the establishment of n Jewish spiritual
centre In Palestine. and that such a GEN.
tire was not only desirable but necessary.
In answer TO question as to whether
n person could be a Zionist ana a good
American at the same time Mr.. Taft In
quoted as saying
Certainly. America consists of many
nationalities, and each one has its ma E
tional and spiritual centre somewhere
else. And still they are excellent Ameri-
can citizens. The late war has demon
strsted this perfectly. see no reason
why Jews should not have Palestine as
their national cultural centre.
II deplore that because of the Japa-
iese attitude at the Peace Conference
there was no paragraph included in
the treaty guaranteeing Jewish ma
tional rights In certain lands. but II you
will study carefully the treaty you will
see that the question has been left to the
League OF Nations. AS far as I know
Jewish rights will be secured, but great
caution will have to be exercised con-
corning Poland and Rumania.
The latter has, in shameful and
dishonorable way. violated the treaty OF
1874, giving all citizens equal civil, politi-
cal and religious rights. Rumania dida
simple thing. II declared that the Jews
many OF whom lived In the land for CEN
turtles. are not citizens.
I'VE must be on our guard against
such devices in the future. ! cabled to
President Wilson about this only a few
days ago"

TO SPEEDY DENTIST.

David Goldstein OF 365 Grand street
was such a speedy student that he COM
pleted his dentistry course and was
graduated year before he could be
permitted to practice. according to
story told the police yesterday. In this
extremity he prevailed upon DR.. Joseph
Karger OF 253 Second avenue to get a
clerk In the Department OF Health to
change the date of his birth certificate
from February ?. 1899, to February 8.
1898.
The clerk, George Hosey. referred the
matter to DR.. Guilfoy. department
physician, according to his affidavit. Or.
Guilfoy advised him, he said. TO find out
how much would be paid for the favor.
and Hosey learned after a parley with
DR.. Karger that the amount would be
$40. Detectives were then. called, Hosey
said, the money was passed and both
men were arrested. On arraignment In
Tombs court both were releaked in

81, 100000 HIGHWAY
BOND ISSUE TO BE
VOTED ON in WYOMING

Sheridan, wyo., March 25.-Great
interest is manifested in the proposed
special election to be called by Cover
nor Carey to vote a $4,000, 900 high
way bond issue. Good roads clubs
commercial bodies, and other civic
and improvement organizations Of the
state are making plans to launch an
effective and whirlwind campaign adj
vertising the benefits derived from
good roads.
The fact that the federal govern.
ment offers dollar for dollar for road
improvements means that instead of
$3,000,000 the sun available for good
roads would be double that amount.
It is thought that this fact will be an
inducement for the public to look
favorably upon the voting of the bond
issue.
II the bond issue is defeated, wy
oming would be deprived of perma-
nent roads for three years to come,
z. E. Sevison, who Is making an OFF,
etal trip over the state.
II the highway bond issue Is sue.
cessful, Sevinson said, that one of the
first projects undertaken would be the
opening Of the highway from Billings,
Mont. to Casper. Wyo., via Sheridan,
and contingent on the election would
be Improvement Of the Black and
Yellow trail leading from this city to
the Black Hills country via Gillette.
Engineer Seyinson is urging every
body to vote for the bond issue and
that all clubs and organizations
should start . campaign which would
bring the people Of the state to realize
the urgent need OF good roads He
said that 4 special election Is to b.
called within the next sixty days.
