 Professed friends of the negro in Boston or other Eastern city, 90 far as we know, have not had any thing to say about the race riotins in places outside the South, although in those riots the innocent as well as the guilty were victims. Even the Southern mob does not slay indis- criminately, it seeks the real crim- inal, and the innocent, well-behaved negro is safe.
 Another thing: In all these reso- lutions, protests and appeals, there is not to be found single sentence condemning the crimes for which the negroes are convicted or lynched. To check executions it is necessary to check crime. And the sooner the professed friends of the negro in the North realize this and act accord ingly, the better it will be for every body.

OUR SOUTHERN PORTS.

The Atlanta chamber of commerce has entered vigorous protest against the proposed sale to private interests of the boats built or other wise acquired by the government during the war and now under the control of the United States shipping board
 In it's protest the Atlanta body recites familiar facts which, however, bear repetition. It is pointed out that, previous to the war, most of our merchandise shipments went through North Atlantic ports.
 The South Atlantic and Gulf ports got comparatively little of the busi- ness. The reason for such discrim;- nation is obvious, and it's results are obvious, too. In this way greater haulage was obtained for the trans continental railroads. And our mari. time commerce, if not strangled, was full own.
 If the people of the South Atlantic and Gulf coasts were alone affected by this policy they might have diff culty making their complaint heard But as matter of fact the whole country is the sufferer from this short-sighted selfishness, excepting, of course, the handful of special bene- ficiaries, though the South and the Middle West, manifestly, are hurt most of all.
 The vast South American market, which should have been ours, had been largely occupied by Europe, or, to be more specific, by Germany and England. The war compelled South America to turn to us. As a re- suit the Southern ports awoke from their long sleep. The government diverted shipments to those ports. It routed freight, not according to spec ial interests, but according to natural market requirements, namely, the shortest haulage by rail and sail The Atlanta chamber of commerce fears that those ships, if the govern ment sells them, will come into the possession of interests that will re- vive the old pre-war conditions under which Eastern ports were stuffed and Southern ports starved. An ap. peal is, therefore, made to the com. mercial organizations of the Middle West and South to join in urging the government to continue in the ship ping business until our maritime commerce is firmly organized along correct lines, which means the utili- zation of all our ports and the merg- ing of our railroads and rivers into the highest possible transportation service.--Post-Disp

 Will it's leadership in Eastern Ar kansas be greater or less than today' Will it be in the race to be the state metropolis, or will it be trailing far behind?
 The question What of 1926?" mus- be answered by the Pine Bluff of to- day.
 The kind of city we have in 1926, or any other year in the future, wi!l depend on what we do today. If thl men of Pine Bluff will determine that their city is to be greater and grand CT in 1926, and will work together to- ward that end, there will be no ques- ton of the result.
 The Greater Pine Bluff" move- ment of the Chamber of Commerce is movement in keeping with tho marvellous times in which we live. In change of conditions, the gap that di- vides 1919 from 1914 is as great as the gap that divides the Twentieth century from the Eighteenth.

FOR A GREATER PINE BLUFF.

Tuesday the campaign of the Chamber of Commerce to obtain thousand members and to reorganize the organization and put it on bigger and better crisis will begin.
 This campaign was launched by the present chamber. The men behind the present chamber, however, have waived all rights in control of the new chamber. They are willing to relinquish the work that they have been doing to anyone else who may be chosen. They have decided to step down and out and let every member of the reorganized chamber select the men who shall direct it's opera tions.
 In doing this they have given the people of Pine Bluff absolute proof of their sincerity. They have shown beyond shadow of doubt that the thing they most desire is chamber that will unite the people of Pine Bluff and work best for their inter- ests.
 The men who launched this cam paign, who planned it and who are putting it through have shown that they have put service above self.
 It is now up to the people of Pine Blutf-the business and professions! men, the bankers, the labor interests to show that they have as much faith in the reorganized chamber and as much desire for bigger and better city as these other men.
 They can do this in one way-by joining the chamber, urging others to join, and pledging themselves to work for better Pine Bluff and to supporting whoever the chamber membership elects to lead it.
 There is only one question in re- gard to the chamber campaign now.
 It is: Do you want a chamber, controlled by democratic member ship, representing various interests and working for a greater town or do you oppose it?

THE BOSTON RACE EXPERTS

The self-proclaimed friends in the North of the colored people could best promote the welfare of the negro in the South by accepting, in matters affecting the negro, leader ship of Southern men--white and colored. And by so doing, they would avoid displaying their ignorance of conditions and arousing resentment of people who are misrepresented.
 In Boston the other day a memor- ial was adopted, asking the governor of Arkansas to prevent the execu- tion of the negroes condemned to death for their part in the Elaine in, surrection. The very reading of the resolution shows bias and prejudice and indicates the framers have eith- CT been reading distorted accounts of the trial of the insurrectionists, or refuse to accept the facts as contain ed in the Associated Press dispatches.
 Not satisfied with this blunder, the Boston negroes go further and ask for the repeal of the laws requiring separate train coaches for whites and blacks. The repeal of these laws would provoke clashes between the races, instead of creating better feeling. Everyone in this country white and black--realizes this to De true. And, consequently, there is no agitation here from the sane leaders of either race for repeal of these laws.
 There was a conference of white and colored leaders at the capital last week to discuss racial problems. This conference was called by the governor, and the discussion indicated that there is sincere desire on both sides to be fair. There was no charge at this conference that the Elaine insurrectionists had not receiv-

and it's conditions have gone never to return. We are living iii new day. It's time we realized it.
 Let us expand our Chamber of Commerce to meet the present need for bigger things and watch our pos abilities.
 Pine Bluff must be in position to render her just share of service which Eastern Arkansas, the nation, and the whole world will demand in the coming years.
 Let us today begin to plan for 1926, for 1880. and for 1850. Let us begin with big visions, courageou- hearts, and willingness to pay the price.

ARBITRATION FOR
DAVIS ROAD ROUTE
Tennesseans and Kentuckians
VIII Pass on Differences
Of Mississippians.

The next annual convention Of the

the suggestion of Ben Weille, former

ing the closing moments of the con-
vention held Friday on the sixth floor

~resenting the counties which are cleft
by the west and east branches Of the
highway respectively through Northern
Mississippi was referred to a COM
mittee on routes, appointed by the
retiring president, l., G. Norvell, of

rection of Mr.. Norvell, will report

journed session of the association at
Grenada making the eastern route the
official route of the highway was proper
and shall stand. If its decision should
- Se that the adjourned session was
properly constituted the Eastern route
may be finally affirmed. If they give
a negative decision, the matter will
be submitted to the committee on
routes to fix the official line. The
committee will be required to give all
contestants 80 days notice of all its
decisions, fear hearings. Its j~urisdic-
ton is from Memphis south to New Or
leans.
On motion of Mr.. King, chairman Of
the Memphis Chamber of Commerce
highway committee, the people along
the highway from Trimble to Obion

treasured that the money they are
spending to build this link in the high
way would be to good purpose and thai
their line is the official line.
Upon the suggestion of the finance
secretary OF the Chamber Of Commerce
the work of the association this year
will be financed in the following three
ways:
By assessing each county traverseC
by the highway 800 to be paid by
