ENGLAND HAS NEGRO
QUESTION TO solve
Anxious Now to Be Rid Of West
African laborers Used
: During War.

England has negro problem on her
hands. During the war negro colonies
were established in various English
towns, all the men having been brought
from West Africa They went to Eng
land as seamen and, tempted by mu.
milton wages and the shortage of labor,
settled down there.
Many of the negroes formed tenn
porary alliances with white women.
Although some of these alliances end
ed in marriage, there were clergymen
who refused to assist In such unions
The police and social workers agreed
that the conditions which have fol-
lowed on the negro immigration are
serious.
: The negroes are natural dandies. and
one has been seen to wear bracelet,
chain and heavy locket round his
neck, and large silk handkerchief
hanging from the back of his coat
They hold noisy carousals and the au-
thorities have been obliged to borrow
from America word to describe the
police squad assigned to the negro
quarters. 1t is called the "Dixie Pa
troll"
Lately many of the negroes have
been thrown out Of work and have re-
ceived the government unemployment
donation. They are now said to be
anxious to return to Africa, but white
sailors refuse to work with them and
ships officers will not sign them on.
The whites are equally DESTROYS that
the negroes shall depart, and 1t is prob
able that the colonial Office will grant
them passage money.

WHO BEAT THE GERMANS?

The Italians think they won the
war because they gave tottering
Austria a knockout blow. The
French think they won the war be-
cause their country was it's scene and
the stubbornly faced the foe from
start to finish. The English think
they won the war for various rea-
sons, but chiefly because they are
English. The Americans think they
won the war because they came to
the rescue in a dark hour, accom-
plished big things with unparalleled
speed and did much of the very best
fighting. All this is inevitable, hui
man nature being what it is. But
a persistent effort in England and
France to belittle the great part
played by the United States is not SO
inevitable as to fail to smack of in
gratitude and reflect little credit
upon our two chief allies named.
That there is such persistent effort
George Patullo, writing from Europe
in the Saturday Evening Post of May
10, unhesitatingly asserts and gives
proofs of his assertion.
Americans gave the continually ad-
vancing Germans their first check
in their last great drive at Chateau
Thierry. Americans first. broke thru
the Hindenburg line. In the great
Meuse- Agronne offensive there were
more than 100000 Americans and
less than $4,000 French. At the
end Of the war there were 1,950.000

Large Manufacturing Concern Tries
Interesting Experiment.
The vice president Of large manu-
featuring establishment, employing
5000 persons, has informed officials
Of the training service, department Of
labor, that his experience confirms the
view promulgated by the service that
Is per cent of the workmen in the
ordinary industrial plant are producing
less than a normal amount of work,
and that the result is that the shop
average Is perhaps as much as 80
per cent short Of the production 1t
should attain.
Some time ago the company estab-
lished training and kept careful rec
ords. When individual production was
found falling off the workmen, instead
Of being discharged, received Other
Jobs on which, they could do better
work. The company took an interest
in finding suitable work for the en-
ployees. The Individual efficiency rec
ords also proved protection against
unjust discharge and afforded means
of determining upon promotions.
In the case of certain women EN-.
ployes the company found that their
output fell toward the end of the day
as result of fatigue. These employees
were given less, exacting work, on
which. however, their remuneration
would be satisfactory.

after his little son Benton arrived on
the scene. His father kept on at his
work, but the more he stroked with
his brush, the less varnish seemed to
stick.
The son began to lap up a little Of
the varnish out Of the dish Mr.. Bloom
had put it in and then demonstrated
against further use of it. Mrs. Bloom
told him not to eat 1t, "for 1t, was
poison" But the child complained to
his mother that daddy is painting
the table with maple syrup and he
says it's varnish."
Mr.. Bloom had exchanged a varnish
can for maple syrup can, as they
are similar, and was using the syrup
without knowing it was not varnish.
And maple syrup sells for $1.75 q
gallon.

Big Leagues Can
Not Draft Stars
From Minors

CHICAGO. Sept. Club owners
OF the National and American
leagues will not draft star players
from the minor leagues this fall.
This was decided Tuesday night
when the National Baseball commits
sion recommended that privilege OF
the draft be suspended for 1919
because OF the uncertainty now exist
ing between the major and minor
leagues of the country
The commission ruled. however.
that the major league clubs be per
mitted TO continue the purchase OF
players if suitable arrangements
could be made with the minor league
clubs
A. r. Tearney. Of Chicago. presi-
dent of the Three Eye. and Western
leagues. who led the fight against
the practice Of the major leagues in
drafting micor talent. was elated
with the action OF the commission.
He was chairman of the committee
which effected a break n relations
with the major leagues last winter
and subsequent abrogation of the
national agreement
The action means that the minor
leagues will now be able 10 build
fences for themselves instead of for
the major leagues" Tearney said.
1T means also that the minor or
CARNATIONS will have control over
their own property. and the action
will encourage thOsa interested I'm
minor league clubs financially 10

one knows has been a losing VEN

previous year"

PROPOSE CHANGE
FOR WORLD SERIES
National Commission Recon-
mendS Plan to Play Nine
Games This Year.
nv Tinted press

BY United Press
CHICAGO, Sept. 8. - Because Of
the unprecedented demand for world
series seats this fall. the National
baseball commission Tuesday recon-
rended that the series be increased
10 nine games instead of the usual
seven. The proposal was sent tonight
10 the club owners of the American
and National leagues for immediate
ratification.
Under the proposal. the rival
clubs would share in the receipts Of
the first five games instead OF the
first [oUI as in former years. The
victorious team would have 10 take
tive OF the nI.e contests to win the
worlds champiC nship. Heretofore,
the championship was decided when
one Of the Clubs won four of the
seven contests The players would
divide their aPportioned share Of
the FIVE game receipts on a Go and
30 percent bass. 60 percent gazing
10 the winnirl club.
August Hcrrn ann. chairman Of
the cOnmiSc.on explained that the
recommendation was made for no
other reason than TO benefit the pub
lie by permitting a larger number
of persons TO see at least one OF the
games. Although the Cincinnati club
has not clinched the National league
remnant, Chairman Hermann, who
,lso is president Of the Reds. said
he had received $4,000 applications
for seats outside Of Cincinnati.
There are more than 100, 900
persons in Cincinnati who want to
see the series and it will be an i'm
possibility 20 accommodate a third
Of them under the seven game
rlan." he said THE city is baseball
wild. II seems that tine entire south
is planning on coming TO Cincinnati
IL we are so fortunate as to win the
National league flag"
Chairman Hermann announced
that plans for the series would not
be made until the pennant races are
definitely decided, which probably
will not be for 10 days or two weeks.
