Reports from other localities indi-
cate a warm Red Cross interest in
community centers, clinics and other
more concrete forms of social better
ment. Activities of this kind differ,
just as the needs which prompt them
differ, each locality presenting curious
types of problems.
There is, however, one need which
irrespective of locality is found to be
prevalent everywhere-the need for
health education.
Ignorance is the underlying cause of
the continued disaster of preventable
disease and death that are undermin-
ing the vitality of the American peo-
pie. Health education is the means by
which this ignorance can be removed.
In recognizing this. the Red Cross Is
establishing health centers where in
formation and education will be offered
and where the health workers of the
community may be brought to work
together. While only few of the
health centers have been put in oper-
alton by Red Cross chapters. there be-
ing at the present time only about rs
centers in the county the activity is
growing steadily. Within a few years
it is expected the Red Cross health
center will form as definite a part of
the community's institutions as the
public school or library. Much de-
ponds on the interest of the people
themselves.
Then there is the Red Cross Nursing
service. Nursing service obviously
tends to improve health conditions and
promote health interests. The total
number of nurses enrolled in Red Cross
Nursing service is 1890 of these 1O5

the present monthly average being
only about 125. This number falls far
short of the demand, and in order to
increase the supply. the Red Cross is
daily bending its efforts in behalf of
tie recruiting of nurses. OF the 81 800
nurses, 531 are public health nurses
serving under Red Cross chapters. and
124 serving in organizations affiliated
with the Red Cross and under the su-
pervision.

M0TORMAN'S MURDER
Negroes Flee Before Angry
Mob of 5000 After Killing
Car Driver

Chicago.-Chased by a mob of 3d.
900 1nfuriated whites, three Negroes
were saved from certain death when
they took refuge in a church here
The mob gathered when Thomas
Z. Barrett, a motorman, was muir
dered by Negro, who slashed his
throat from ear to ear, following a
dispute 1t is said the Negroes were
insulting white .yoman and Barrett
went to her assistance.
The three Negroes, Yhen on the
point of being captured, took refuge
in st. Gabriels Church. AS the mob
was about to storm the church. Rev
Thomas Burke appeared on the steps
and implored the leaders to leave
the Negroes to the police.
The mob waited for the police to
bring out the Negroes, loudly calling
for rope to lynch them. The prison
ers were whisked away to a police
station by rear door. The patrol
was stoned by the mob as it sped
away.
While the first mob was waiting
outside the church another formed
at Forty-seyenth and Union streets
and stopped all street cars, looking
for Negroes. Reports from other
parts Of the stockyards district, and
from the center OF the black belt,
half mile away, indicated that the
fighting was spreading throughout
the district
Police Chief Garrity, Deputy John
Alcock and Chief of Detectives Mooney
took charge of the thousands of police
reserves and detective rifle squads
which were patrolling the district.
Police were unable to control the
mobs at several points and reserves
had to be sent to disperse them Ne
groes disappeared from the streets
like magic.
All saloons and pool rooms in the
riot district were ordered closed by
Chief Garrity and most OF the other
business houses closed voluntarily,
leaving the streets dark save for street
lights. After three hours of strenuous
work the police succeeded in dispers-
ing most of the mobs.

So sure were they that their find
had a vital bearing on the quest for

fused to allow more than hint of its

tibles, and which had reached the
stage of examining minor users OF
such material, there was discovered

ment of justice operatives searching
the city in an effort to round up Red
suspects in the Wall street bomb hor-
ror, the work of the bomb squad has
centered about Reds known to have
made bomb threats and to have theat-
ened to blow up Madison Square Gar
den during the recent stay of the 100
Russian refugee children in New York.

Reds, who are known to have made
