proximately, $4,000 people to its Col
ored population" their report says:
This is true of no other city. De-
troit and Newark have increased
their Negro population between 300
and 400 per cent during the last
four years. But neither OF thpse
cities has a Negro population half
as large as Chicago's now a total
of 125,000.
I'm 1910 Chicago ranked fifth
among the cities of the North having
large Colored populations. Today she
is second only to New York and
this, by the way, only because New
York includes the population of Man
haitian Island. Brooklyn. the Bronx
and certain other Long Island towns.
THE greater part of Chicago's in
creased Negro population had ar
rived at the close Of 1913. While we
have had steady increase of popula-
lation since January /, 1919, the new
arrivals have come in smaller num-
bers and with less confusion, thus
permitting us to give more personal
supervision to spend more time, with
with individuals.
"Since Nov. l of last year, 2,0S5
separate individuals used our office
for a total of approximately 1880
different times. Most of them were
people looking for work and most
of them who were in earnest received
it. Many needed vocational guidance,
friendly hand, constructive sug-
gestion."
Mention is made of the employ
ment by -Roebuck & Company
of 1,4000 Colored girls at 80 w.
Washington Street, AT the same
place there were employed last year
600 Colored girls, and the company
said it was willing to again employ
during this holiday period SIS Of
the same girls. 1t was found, how
ever, that less than half of these
were available, although wages were
SO a week higher than last year.
This was due to the fact that
the others were employed the re-
port states" the labor field for Col
ored girls having expanded beyond
all calculation"

offered by the congregation OF the
Bridge Street African NJ L. church

saulted its pastor, the Rev. W. Spen-
Ger Carpenter. Some time ago the

he clearly stated were immoral pur-
poses. The next morning a letter
came to the Carpenter home at 102
Duf1ield Street. threatening vengeance
if the Rev. Mr.. Carpenter did not
stop that sort" of sermonizing. How
ever, the following Sunday, the di-
vine continued his fight against the
devil. Two days later his door bell
rang. and the preacher answer
ing the call himself, found tall
man standing on the steps. Without
a word, the man struck Mr.. Carpen-
ter over the head with bundle he
was carrying, bundle which con-
tanned cobblestone. Mr.. Carpenter
was knocked unconsconscious, and
was found several minutes later by
his wife. The police of the Adams
Street station were notified, but NJ
arrests were made, so the board of
trustees of the church voted to offer
the reward.

late are among the articles that the
