Employment crux Problem

"The question OF occupation forms
the crux of the Negro problem. If the
colored people of Cincinnati received
larger income with better housing
facilities they would not be as they
are today. We found that women were
chiefly employed as laundresses and
maids, but that lately factories have
been employing them. The men are
laborers, chauffeurs, roofers, carpeI,-
ters, janitors, plumbers helpers, ole
vator men and messengers. There are
3,455 colored men in the employ IF
large firms. The Negro, in many in
stances, is thrifty, and is becoming
more so. On Lincoir avenue, Walnut
Hills, there are nineteen houses owned
by Negroes, valued at $1S5,OOO In
other parts of the city there are 450
Negroes owning 11e0 homes which
have value of $2,S50, eco. One real
estate dealer sold zoo houses in nine
years to Negroes, ana out of 200 only
8 failed to make good in completing
payments.
'It is, therefore, in the western ard
southern parts of the city that the
conditions nearly need correction, not
only for the good Of the Negro, but
for that Of every class and race of
the population in the prevention of dis
ease"
