back south in a steady stream.
 Reports received by local employ ment bureaus show that 250,00 neg roes went north during June, July and August, this year. There was consid erable negro migration almost from the start of the war.
 Tennessee, Arkansas, Mississippi, Georgia. Alabama and Kentucky were chiefly hit by the negro migration, Mississippi showing an actual decrease in population.
 Whole trainloads of negroes went north daily during the peak of the migration. Almost every day during the three summer months 200 negroes left Memphis for Detroit and nearby points. Trainloads. like cattle, were shipped away to work on northern railroads. Eastern corporations and railroads sent agents throughout the south to hire labor. and efforts to pre- vent the migration accomplished little.
 According to estimates by men who studied the problem. 65 per cent of the negroes who went north worked on railroad construction jobs. Pennsyl- vania used a large number on state roads. Akron, O., is estimated to have taken 30,000 negroes from the Mem phis territory.
 The supply of negro labor in Missis SlppA IS SStuldLeu to AoNS pCCA OuS Se per cent during the summer.
 Not Good R. R. Men
 Negroes were not a success as rail- road workers, according to local rail- road agents.
 | According to R. c. Wells of the l Memphis Employment Bureau, and railroad men, the migration of negroes has now almost completely stopped while the return movement is growing so heavy that, if it continues at it, present rate, about per cent of thos who left will have returned before th' end of the winter.

NEGROES ARE BLOCKING II
 SOUTH AGAIN

MEMPHIS-Thousa of negroes, who flocked north by trainloads during the summer, are returning south.
 Disappointed by failure to find the higher wages and better conditions about which employment agents glibly talked their old employers say they are eagerly seeking to return to the work they left.
 With business slackening in many northern industrial centers, the neg roes found that they were usually the first to be laid off the job. Country negroes declare their higher pay was more than counterbalanced by in creased living costs in industrial cities. City negroes often found their wages in northern cities did not equal their pay in southern cities.
 Many Reasons
 Lack of adequate housing facilities strange conditions, home sickness. failure to find the improved social treatment for which some had hoped more rigorous climates, race rioting harder work-these are some of the things which are sending the negroes

By GRACE HUTCHINGs.

The May Music Festival opened list
evening with a concert by the Russian
symphony orchestra, with Modest Alt

Mr.. Hadley conducted the first half Of

his own works.
Mr.. Altschuler devoted his half of the
program to Russian compositions.
Mr.. Hadley received a cordial reeep.

tribute to him as a composer, rather than
to his abilities as a conductor, for the
orchestra was not at its best under his
baton
When Mr.. Altschuler took the conduc-

twice to see if it were the same orchestra

Instantly every man sprang into life
