(By the Associated Press.)

@ Paris, Aug. 9.-Premler Clemen- ceau recently thought he would like to try "frigo," as the Farisians calls ,frozen meat. He told his cook to get some. She searched the whole quarter in vain, because the butchers were selling it as fresh meat. .
 "This state of affairs must stop" said the Premier, according to the newspapers. He summoned two mem- bers of the city council M. Vilgrain, under-secretary for food, and M. Aut- rand, prefect of the Department of the Seine. The councillors said other things beside 'frigo" were missing.
 "This must change" the Premeir declared. "Henceforth, Vilgrain and Roy will have charge of the vic tualling of Paris, Prefect Autrand undertaking the trucking of supplies each being held responsible. give you fifteen days to have everything in order"

NEGRO, NOW IN NORTH,
 WANTED HERE
Work at Good Wages Awaits the Southerner, But Northern
 Black Not Desired.

Memphis, Tenn, Aug. 9.-Plenty of farm and mill work, better wages than ever before paid and improved living conditions await southern ne- groes who have gone to the North and who now are clamOring to return to the South.
 Employers of negro labor want the Southern negroes back. If there were some method of getting in touch with them and picking the really South ern-born and Southern-reared black man, the expenses of his return to Dixie will be willingly borne. This will hold especially true for the next few weeks, because farmers and plan tation owners are in need of negroes who know how to take care of the cotton crops.
 Northern Negroes Not Desirable.
 Most emphatically, though, these employers say, they do not want Northern-bor and reared negroes. They would rather bring in foreign labor, they say.
 "We would not hesitate to pay the expenses of hundred or more ne groes from Chicago or other North ern cities to our place if we can get Southern negroes, particularly ne- groes who have come from Mississ- ippi, Arkansas and Tennessee" and A. c. Lange, vice-president and gen. eral manager of a lumber company, which ownes more than 10000 acres of timber an agricultural lands in Northeastern Arkanas. Il think it is safe to say that every Southern ne- gro in the North would be brought back without expense to him if South ern farmers and plantation owners l knew where and how to get in touch , with the Southern-born. We don't want and will not have Northern ne- ] groes."
 1 According to P. H. Starks, general superintendent of another lumber company of Charleston, Miss, which has 65,000 acres of land in Mississ- ippi, it is only a question of getting in touch with Southern negroes. Southeners Anxious to Return. Recently his company brought back more than 100 Southern negroes from St. Louis. An agent was sent
 there and through an employment agency was was enabfed to locate and talk with negroes from the South Most of those taken to Charleston
 were born in Mississippi.
 "We found them very anxious t, 1 return, and since they have returned they are getting along better thai
 they ever did," said Mir. Starks "Theytgare better satisfied and gar s Ilworking better, than they did befor they went away.
 "I don't believe there is the leas question so far as the Southern negrt

 come back and find plenty of work , good wages and better living condi
