1.-The activities of both of these de-
partment are increasing very fast
owing to the growth of the population
of the city and the awakened con-
sciousness of the community to the
all-important of cooperative enter
prise.
''Of course the work of the commu-
nifty center department is largely de-
pendent on the energy and unself1sh
service of the general community sec
retary, and the local neighborhood
secretaries. In the recreation depart
ment the work of the recreation di-
rectors is likewise highly important.
Now 1 know that SO far all of
these workers have given devoted and
untiring service for very little pay,
but L am afraid that it will soon be
impossible for them to continue to do
SO, as they are finding it increasingly
hard to make ends meet.
Indeed, 1 know that with what
they are getting it is impossible to
live decently. We must. for such i'm
portant work as they are doing, be
able to command the services of just
such fine men and women as they
are, but with all the willingness in
the world to serve they will have to
give up unless their salaries can be
increased"

JUSTICE FOR NEGRO
URGED BY BISHOP
Rev. c. H. Phillips Appeals for
Cooperation of White and
CoIored Churchmen.

A stirring appeal for justice for the
negro in the United States and a plea
for cooperation of white and negro
churchmen to this end was made by
Bishop c. H. Phillips of Nashville,
Tenn. in the reconstruction and re-
adjustment congress at Howard Uni
versity yesterday afternoon.
An institution like the church
working among and for negroes. and
similar influence working among
white people," he said, should CO.
ordinate where their interests are
mutual and where the welfare of So
clety requires it. To the church the
negro now looks for leadership. coun-
sci and direction. To alley racial un-
rest everywhere apparent. to coop
crate for larger measures of justice
TO the negro. for which he daily cries,
Christian white leaders and Christian
negro leaders must rise and meet
sponsibility.
Religious Sanction Urged.
"1f white men and black men would
give this war readjustment program a
religious. sanction and apply to it the
principles of Christianity, if they
would lead the church to do its duty
as custodian of spiritual revelation.
II white men would call to mind that
the sons of black men, like their sons.
in the battle of the Argonne- Meuse, in
the valley of the Aisne, at Chateau
Thierry, made the supreme sacrifice.
they would initiate a closer co-opera-
ton between the races and make clear
er the facts that elementary justice
and respect for negro manhood and
womanhood is the only basis for amic-
able race adjustment. for race integrity
and for permanent racial peace.
THE negro wants justice" Bishop
Phillips continued, "and the cry for it
Is challenge to all that is best in
the white man. Two-thirds of the negro
problem is bound up in this word. The
first step, therefore, in the adjustment
of race relations is to extend justice
to the negro, and racial understanding
and cooperation are necessary for this
extension"

them and their institutions. they are
the most ruthless majority in the

miscreants is nearing it's end.
wherefore the government should
take the lead in suppressing this men,
ace, and not wait for the people to
rise in their might and by resort to
such extra legal methods as vigilant
committees, and the use of hemp and
the shot gun put an end to this in
tolerable condition that has been per-
