NEGRO POPULATION
SHOW BIC INCREASE
IN LAST TEN YEARS
South Takes Care of Majority
Although North and West Are
Included in Figures.

Washington. Dec. 17.-The total
number of negroes reported as born in
southern states and living in the north
and west had increased from 440, ,.334
in 1910 to 7SO,7g4 in 1920, the census
bureau announced Saturday in spe-
cial report on negro migration. The
southern boundaries of New Jersey,
Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois,
Missouri and Kansas were taken as
the dividing line between the north
and south for the purposes of the
report.
In the last census 10,3S1 300
negroes were enumerated. The total
migrations, 7SO,794 to the north and
west constituted 81 per cent of
southern born negroes, the report
said.
Against the migration from the
south to the north and west of the
total Of 741.791 reported in the last
census as born in states OF the lat
ter region. 1929, or GA per cent
were living in the south. Thus the
proportion of southern born negroes
who migrated to the north or west
according to the report, was only about
one fourth larger than the proportion
of those born in the latter region who
migrated to the south.
Although migration to the north and
west has not taken place among the
far southern negroes to the same ex
tent. relatively to their total number
as among the negroes in the northern
part Of the south, there was neverthe-
less a pronounced increase in such
migration from the far south during
the past decade.

DECISION EXPECTED
nv n c nEEIrIA


Washington, Dec. 17.-The decision
was expected by state department Of
ficials conservant with the negotia-
tons.
The plan for the German rigid air.
ship to be constructed for the United
States at Friederichshafen called for
the latest of the wartime crafts such
as the L-70, II and Y, built in 1918
and 1920.
All three of the airships were of q
100000 cubic feet volume, almost as
large as the recently lost ZR-2, and q
little larger than the navy's ZR1 now
being built at the naval aircraft fac
tory at Philadelphia.
Powerful Crafts
The German L-7O class of airship
measured 743 feet in length, 48 feet
longer than the British ZR-2, but hav-
ing the standard German diameter of
1874 feet.
Their total useful load is over $780,
600 pounds or A tons, equivalent to
80 per cent of the total weight of these
ships. The ships carried crew of 80
men each.
These rigid airships were driven by
seven Mayback engines Of 200 horse
power each. giving total horsepower
of 2,O30 and developing a speed of over
so miles an hour.

DAHL TO HOLD PUBLIC
SESSION BY MONDAY

Dublin, Dec 17.-Final decision on
the Irish peace treaty by the Dali
Eireann can be expected on Wednes-
day, but not before. according to in
formation obtained from authoritative
Sim Fein circles.
A public session will be held Mon
day for informal presentation of a
motion for ratification but it is ex-
pected that the debate will continue
until Wednesday at least The mem
bers continued their secret discus
sions Saturday.
With ratification of the Irish peace
treaty completed in the imperial par
lament. all eyes were turned today on
Dublin where the Dali Eireann con-
tinued its deliberations. The consen-
sus of opinion of the Irish correspond
ents Of the morning newspapers is that
Fridays discussions in the Dali added
strength to the supporters Of the
treaty, although it is recognized that
the opposition continued to be formid-
able.
Supporters Gaining
Some writer's think the treaty ad-
herents are winning and point out that
the statement issued calling for pub
lie session of the Dali on Monday is
signed by both Eamonn De Valera and
Arthur Griffith instead of by De Val
era alone.
The codicils to the treaty which Mr..
DE Valera is reported to have pre-
pared is said to have been the insti-
tuition of new treaty for that now
under consideration.
The prolonged private sitting was a
surprise. as it was supposed the Dali s
sole business would be in preparation
of the agenda for Mondays session.

AMERICA IS GRANTED
PERMISSION To BUILD
A|RSH|PS IN GERMANY
United States to Receive Big
Zepplin on Terms Laid Down
at Peace Conference.

Paris, Dec 17.-(B The Associated
Press. 1.-THE council of ambassadors
has granted permission to the United
States to contract for the construction
at Friedrichshafen, Germany, of a
Zepplin of the 1t type. This decis-
ion marks the end of diplomatic rela-
tons which have prevailed between the
allied powers and the United States
since July last.
Start Building Soon
The application for the construction
of a Iepplin grew out of the destruc-
ton in Germany of five big dirigibles,
one of which had been allotted to the
United States during the peace confer
ence. The United States based its ap-
plication on the grounds that it was
entitled to another airship under Ger
many's reparation agreement. The
council of ambassadors referred the
matter to the principal allied powers
and several notes are said to have
been exchanged.
1t is said that construction of the
new Zepplin may be started in Janu-
airy.

A story comes from London that the
British government has decided to de-
fer any step in the direction CT naval
expansion until the security of the en-
pire seems to demand it. For the
present the admiralty is marking time,
watching foreign naval policies and
studying the views Of opposing fields
! of thought. Vigilance touching naval
development occupies the minds of
statesmen as we'll as those of the adj
miralty technicians. The British gov
ernment is particularly concerned
with what the United States intends to
do as regards the balance of sea
power. 1t notes that the United
States is outside the league of ma
tons, that some of it's leading politi-
clans talk of an overwhelming Ameri-
can navy and that numerous avowed
enemies of the British empire cease
lessly strive to dominate the American
policy. Simmered down, it means that
John Bull intends to maintain the SUI
premacy of the seas and that should
extensive shipbuilding operations be
engaged in by the United States he
will Immediately do likewise. At this
time John is a trifle nervous but he is
on the alert.
