SomervilIe needs and should have
without delay twenty-four hour cleo
trio current. NO less than half dozen
individual electric systems have been
recently installed or are in preparation
of being installed by business houses
about The square becsuselthe Municipal
Light Plant furnishes only a few hours
service each day. OF course the need
for current is greatest from sunset to
midnight. but every household now
must keep lamps ready for light in case
of need from midnight to sunrise.
Then in the day there is need for cur.
rent by business houses for light in the
winter AMI for fans in summer. And
in the household the day current would
be used for fans, for various light
cooking, etc. We believe tbs day cur
rent could be made to more than pay
for itself. but whether it paid expen-
SEES or not it would fill want of the

A noted speaker last week discussing
the cotton situation and the fact that
southern farmers are realizing that q
ten million bale cotton crop brings the
south more money than fifteen mil
lion bale crop. declared that the south
should ignore the money income from
the crop and produce more cotton be-.
cause the world needs more cotton than
a ten million bale crop. But we are
Just wondering how this fits in with
the practice of factory owners who
shut down their plants and reduce pro-
ductlon when the supply of their out
Fut becomes larger than the demand,
and how with the factory workers,
mine workers and all the other work.
ers who are working fewer hours and
producing less than ever before and
getting more money for it. The south
will do well to ignore world needs as
other workers are doing and look TO its
own interest until uther workers begin
to think of world needs instead of few
er hours and more money as their de-
msnds have run in recent years.

There ia a jolt coming yet to the cap
itslists who refuse all reason 10 dealing
with the public and with their employ.
es. TIE great public class stands to
suffer from every dispute between labor
and capital just as much as these class
es do themselves, even more some
times, and this class can see the faults
of both. and knows that labor ignores
laws when it destroys property and
taxes human lie in strikes. but it
knows, too, that capital has made a
practice Tor. years of ignoring laws that
were made to bring them to dealing
fairly with their employees and the
public. A billion acts of profiteering
IN the past year on the part of capital
have brought censure from the public
and convinces the public that capital
must be brought to obey laws just ss
the humble citizen must obey them.
Capital has grown naughty IN America
and during the recent war period little
attention was paid by the average
manufacturer to any order issued by
the Government. Dozens of instances
have been mentioned in these columns.
This condition must charge sooner or
later ana capital be taught to consider
the rights of the public who buy their
wares.

A Path To Inter Racial Peace

Austin, Texas.-The ST. Johns Mis-
hiOnary Baptist Association. covering
eleven Texas counties, has issued a
statement warning their people against
preachers of disorder and. e riot. "
They especially protest against a GER
tain type of Negro news papers pub
lished at the North. but with wide cir
culation 10 the South. These papers,
the Association asserts, magnify the
wrongs and minimize the good" in in
ter racial relations. They VINO brand
lsh before the eye incendiary articles
at this time are enemies rather than
friends Of the race" The Association
will approach other colOred
organizations on this basis. and try TO
launch nationwide campaign against
propagandists who would promote race
antagonisms and in favor of better
understanding between the races.
Such a movement must win the APP
proval of all thinking whites: out it will
effect little without white backing and
cooperation. Ii white people and news
papers will IN like manner refuse to
magnify the wrongs and minimize the
good" in Negro life, and will frown
down the kind of talk which makes for
mutual dlstrust and bitterness, both
sides of this double problem may be
met. Such course will give the sane
Negro leaders the backing they urgent
ly need, and viii Insure The fulfillment
of the Associations prophecy that the
