THE LABOR AGENT.

commissioner Stanley or the GeOr-
gia Department Of Commerce and
Labor is asking the cooperation of
the public to the end that immigra-
ton agents do not be permitted to
unlawfully operate in the state They
are at work, under cover and they
are responsible, in great extent, for
the fact that so many negroes are
leaving Georgia for the North.
Before labor agent can lawfully
operate, he must:
First-Pay the tax collector in
each county where he operates a tax
of 81, 100000.
Second-Register with the Ordin-
ary.
Third-Secure license from the
Department of Commerce and Labor.
At the present time there is not
a labor agent in the State authorized
to do business. Even if person
wishes to secure labor for his own
use outside Of the State be must first
obtain a permit from this Depart
ment. In the absence of such a per-
nit he can be prosecuted as for
misdemeanor. The commissioner
says:
81 have brought this matter to the
nf hn
Sheriffs, Chiefs of Police, County De-
monstration Agents, Canning Agents,
Chambers of Commerce, Boards of
Trade, and have also written a let
ter to each Judge in the State, ask
ing that he specifically charge the
grand jury in each of the counties of
his circuit with reference to this law.
Officials of this Department have Wis
ted and are visiting the various coun-
ties in the State in the effort to stop
the exodus. Bailiffs, constables,
policemen, sheriffs and deputy sher-
ifs can put stop to the operation Of
these labor agents if they go at it
vigorously. Georgia is big state and
unless help is secured from each To-
cality the work of this Department
will be in vain.
81 would be glad if you will aid in
creating sentiment that will arouse
all of the citizens to watch diligently,
and vigorously and land these labor
or emigrant agents on the chaingang.
We have found that it is a favorite
method of procedure for these agents
to send threatening letters to certain
negroes and in day or two approach
such parties and offer them position
in another state. These agents, very
largely, work in the country and
small towns and all the people must
be alert in detecting and reporting to
the proper authorities these agents.
You can aid in arousing public senti-
ment and 1 trust that you will have
no hesitancy in doing so. Unless
SOmSIuiuS lS uOuS q Udu COuultlOu
next year is going to prevail upon the
FARMS
A person has the right to go away
from Georgia-to go to some other
state or to some other country
whenever he or she pleases But we
have no right to let oily tongued
agents come into the state, and, by
false statements and fraudulent pro-
misses, induce ignorant people to,
leave here Georgia and the South
owe it to the negroes to protect them
from these labor agents. Few negroes
go away from the South who do not,
as result, suffer; and once they
leave this section they are always
anxious to again return to their old
homes.-The Augusta Chronicle.

amined by a very self-important
young lawyer about a case which had
resulted in a damage suit as a con-
sequence of an accident on the rail

<'You say that you saw this man
fall from the train?" said the lawyer.
II saw him fall, yes," replied the
railway man.
"Yet it was night time" insisted
the lawyer. And you were at one
end of the train and the man was at
the other. Do you expect an intelli-

BEER AND WINE WOULD BE NO
COMPROMISE.

The proposal to nullify the
Eighteenth Amendment by allowing
the sale Of beer and wine is often
described as compromise.
1t is no compromise whatever.
1t would bring the saloon back.
1t would bring the Brewers AS
ISOLATION and the German-American
Alliance back.
1t would bring back more than 80
per cent of the entire liquor trade.
1t would bring back new evil in
the cultivation of the so-called
home trade" in beer.
1t would bring. a five billion dollar
liquor bill and violate every eco
nomic argument against license.
1t would bring back a lower
standard Of living; more pauperism.
and more drink caused crime.
1t would bring back whisky as a
bootleg adjunct to beer saloons.
1t would bring back absolutely
everything that the American people
have tried to destroy by the prohibit
ton law.

the announcement of the Census
Bureau recently. This is an in
crease of 1905 over 1920. The
death rate per 100000 population
was lis compared with 1914 in

an accident death rate of 24.4 per
100, 900. Connecticut stood second
and New York third, with the rate
of 1874. Among cities of 100000
or more population, Los angeles LED.
There was about % per cent in

COST OF LIVING INCREASES AS
PRICES CONTINUE TO SOAR.

Steady increases in the cost OF
living and general unemployment
are the conditions reported at the
beginning of winter in practically
every section of the United States.
In a statement issued by the U. S.
Department of Labor it is shown
that between September Is and
October Is the retail prices of fooo
in twenty-six representative cities
advanced from less than one-half OF
one per cent to 4 per cent. This
was a continuance of the previous
upward trend.
Along with the rise in the cost of
food and supplies for the household
there was an increase in the prices
of clothing and fabrics of silk, cot
ton and WOOL The price of over
coatings is rs per cent above the
quotations of 1922. A SO fabric, it
is announced from New York, has
been raised to 81 in the preliminary
showings of materials for 1928.
Dealers are attributing the increase
to the higher cost of wool.

Labor told of increases in the prices

This, however, does not obscure the
fact that we are suffering from a
plague Of smart saleck" ladies in

prove their manhood by learning to
smoke, 'cuss' and advocate Eight

think they are making hit with the

the average man finds them little
