Pennsylvania Federation of Labor
warned white workers that unless
they realize the solidarity of Their
interests with those of the Colored
people they will be drageed down
to the economic level of the latter.
Back of racial and religious pre-
judices,"> said Mr.. Maurer, "can in
variably be found economic inter-
ests.
"The antagonism between Colored
and white men in the United States
is the result of their struggles to
live, inspired by those who exploit
both. The East st. Louis massacre
was inspired by the exploiters of
labor and the victims, Colored and
white, were the former victims of
exploitation.
ut is true that this hatred and
antagonism has even found its way
into certain groups of labor organ
izations where the Colored man is
denied membership.
''The union must open wide its
doors to every class of workers,
women as well as men, and then
there will be no lower class; and
racial antagonism and prejudices will

ers. Their interests are identical no

BATTLE IS ON FOR PERMA-
NENT PLACE in AMERICAN
INDUSTRY.

Detroit, Mich, July PA battle
between the immigrant and the Col
ored laborer for a permanent place
in industry was predicted by For
roster b. Washington, Detroit, re-
search expert, in an address recently.
THE type of immigrant coming
to this country now is a poor class
said Washington, while the Colored
people during the war proved their
efficiency and reliability in the fac
tories of the north.
''The immigrants who are coming
here now will stay only long enough
to make little money and learn
American methods. Then they will
return to the fatherland which they
left I'd escape the hard work of re-
Mobilization. ls,8
THE Colored people are Amer
leans They will not go back to any
fatherland."
Mr.. Washington is research direc-
tor of the Detroit Community union.
From recent Investigations he has
figured that in Detroit so per cent
of the Colored population is unem-
ployed, and in Pittsburgh 80 per
cent. The convention session which
he addressed was held in North Wood
ward Avenue NJ. E. Church.
II just came from Chicago" said
Washington, "and there saw con-
dition that is unparalleled in the
history of the Colored race. So
many Colored people are homeless,
iobless and hungry that a band of
them has gotten together along the
lake shore few miles out, built
huts of refuse, brick and wood, and
Is existing on scavanged food, mixed
with liquid so it can be evenly di-
vided among them"
The future of the Colored race
here during the next few years,
Washington said, depends largely on
The industrial prosperity of the coun-
Try, because the Colored labor is
labor, the last hired and
he first fired.
Social work in this county is
largely fad, he said. and just now
he immigrant is the fad. Not long
lgo il was the housing situation,
md before that it was the Colored
nan.
Not so long ago we had commit
.ees of social work ers to study the
problems % the Colored mar j
marked Warrington. THAT was when
he factories needed our people bad
y. Now the employers would be
glad If several thousands of our
leople could go back south, or any
where, just so they left Detroit They
IRE not needed, now, and there are
10 committees to study the sociolog-
cal problems they have"

COTTON POOL HAS BROKEN
RECORDS.

Dallas, Texas, July 21.-The biggest
cooperative marketing organization of
growers in the world is being COM
pleted at the Dallas offices of the
Texas Farm Bureau Federation. More
than six hundred thousand bales OF
cotton from approximately 10000
Texas members have been put in one
pool to be disposed of through a
sales agency set up by what is known
as the American Cotton Growers Elk
change. Oklahoma has signed up
over 100000 bales to go into the same
pool and Mississippi is contributing
100000 bales and Arizona is also an.
The total already promised for the
pool is more than one and a quarter
million bales. Texas cotton farmers
are still signing contracts and it is
expected that this state will ulta-
mately contribute more than a mil
lion bales to the pool.
Every grower contributing to the
pool has agreed to deliver all of the
cotton that he produces for the next
five years to the association which
is composed of growers and managed
by a Board of Directors elected by
the growers and composed of growers
California cooperative. marketing as
ISOLATION dwindle into insignificance
when compared with this new coll
losal merchandising movement.
The largest association on the
Pacific Coast has less than fifteen
thousand members. The American
Cotton Growers Exchange will have
more than 10000 members, each
pledged to deliver all his cotton dur
ing the period provided for in the
contract. This organization aItomat-
ically becomes the largest cotton
factor in the world. Its office will
be located in Dallas, Texas.
Adequate financial support for the
organization is now being arranged
through different agencies. Letters
from War Finance Corporation in
dictate that this Board will render
the same support to the Texas farm
ers that it has already rendered to
the Mississippi Delta Growers AS
sociation which has five million
dollars and which will be advanced
to the growers while the crop is
being marketed through the same ex-
change that will handle the Texas
crop.

echo OF the peonage system as EN-
ployed in the South was heard here,
when julius King. alleged to have
been held in virtual slavery by his
white owner for years, in an attempt
to escape, placed poison in his en-
rioyeFs food, which resulted IN his
death.
King was convicted by Judge r.
G. Dickerson and sentenced to be
hanged. His plea was based upon
the fact that owing to such cruel
treatment at the hands of his en-
ployer, he had determined to he free.
Accordingly. on the night IN ques-
ton. he placed some poison in his
food, with the sole idea Of making
him sick. The drug killed him.
