PRESSING NEED
OF UNIVERSAL
UNION SEEN

NEW YORK. Oct. Mrs Flor
cncc Kelley. secretary OF the Consum-
ers League and member of the Board
OF Directors OF the National Associa-
ton for the Advancement OF Colored
People today made public her impress
sion OF the London session OF he Pan
African Congress from which she has
just returned.
THE keynote OF the meeting was the
need OF world union, OF diffused knowl-
edge OF the facts which affect people OF
African descent throughout the world,
and determination TO accept no inferior
position, whether civil. educational or
political. by whomsoeyer imposed This
was clearly and nobly expressed by Dir.
W. f. b. Dubois in a manifesto which
was unanimously adopted by the Con-
grcsS at the closing session OF the Lon
don meetings.
The meetings were held stones
throw from Westminster Abbey and a
few blocks from the Parlainent-truly
in the heart OF the British Empire 1t
was a gathering oil men and women OF
distinction from' all parts of Africa.
from the British West Indies Grenada
and jamaica and from divers parts OF
the United States.
Mr. Archer. a former mayor of Bat
tersea, a native OF London of African
descent, presided at one OF the sessions
at which. as a member OF the Board Of
Directors OF the National Association
for the Advancement OF Colored Peo-
pie, | made some brief remarks.
Most terrible was the lot OF Ne
groes in South Africa, as it was ex-
posed by one OF the speakers. who said
there was starvation among them be-
cause they had to work nine months in
the year ior the white men who had
taken their land, three months to pay
the British governments taxes, and had
therefore no time to get enough for
themselves to eat.
A pleasant part OF the Pan-African
Congress was the tea given to the dele
gates by Mrs Irwin. wife OF the head
OF the great publishing house OF 7.
Fisher Irwin and Company. From
windows which look out over the river
Thames we saw the Tower OF London
and the famous London bridges. Near
by was the immense building OF the Ma
tional Liberal Club. OF which our host.
Mr.. Irwin, Is one OF the moving
spirits

BIC BUILDING BOOM IN
MORGAN PARK

Morgan Park IS soon to experience a
building boom OF larpc dimensions \
well known construction company IS
to break ground soon on the construc-
ton OF six bungalows. and expect to
complete before Christmas about Is or
II modern buildings The building,
arc to be sold on very easy terms.
1t is sincerely hoped that the ncH.
residents OF Morgan Park will try t.
make this section OF the city an object
OF admiration and not a place to be
pointed at with disgust The TACT
that heretofore substantial buildings
have not been the rule, has greatly re
tarded the making OF loans for build
ing by the banks and loan people who
have money to loan for such projects.
The real estate men should see that all
lots sold should be sold with a certain
restriction on the character and kind Of
building that Is 10 he erected on the
property.
1t Is our understanding that If these
properties sell well the same people
sill put up about one hundred or more
buildings during the coming year.

The Sunset Cafe. Wednesday evening.
bringing together all OF the southside
dealers in coal and ice and colored en-
ployeS OF the Southside Branch. which
is located at 44l6 Federal ST. -
Aside from splendid feed was the
TACT that many OF the officials of the
company came to show appreciation OF
the general cooperation OF dealers and
buyers. 1t is to be remembered that
this company employs Mr. lie Roy
NAPLES as branch manager. r. W.
Alternately, assistant manager Of sales:
Leslie Alternately, clerk; and A. Fer
guson, salesman. and is therefore one
OF the very large concerns in the city
which has given the black people this
kind of recognition for their patron
age.
The meeting served the purpose for
which it was intended, bringing the
company close with its employees, buy
ers and customers and serves "a
splendid example OF what these con-
Germs can do if they will.
