BUSINESS BETTER THAN USUAL.

General business is only five per cent. below normal which is two percent. better than the previous week and represents the highest mark this year according to the statistics of Roger Babson. Having appreciat- ed this fact one may consider his advice as to investment in railroad stocks with interest
 Mir. Babson reduces to plain state ments the thoughts many have held for some time. The settlement of the rail strike and the mental attitude of both wage -earners and railroad off cials which makes them appreciate, at this time, the futility of strikes, tends to stabilize the railroad securi- ties situation. Generally speaking the railroads are in good shape to meet the future; their securities, therefore again generally speaking, form good investment But speak, ing specifically railroads which will not be affected by the development of trucking over comparatively short hauls will be more prosperous than the roads running through closely settled communities. Such roads, like the Boston & Maine, the New Haven, Chicago x Northwestern, Reading and the like, will have to take steps before long to meet the competition this trucking development will pro- duce. Frankly" says Mir. Babson, T would rather take my chances with concrete securities Securities in com panies which will profit from the expected activities in building great concrete highways for trucks) than with railroad securities bought indis- criminately." Of course the statisti- clan means that indiscriminate buying which might include the purchase of securities of roads such as the New Haven which road, he believes, would
 
 be wise to sell rights of way which parallel their line to the state for such concrete highway building, would not be as sure as the buying of securities in companies which will be benefited by the inevitable develop ment of the trucking possibilities.
 It must by no means be und derstood that Mir. Babson predicts a general lowering of the price of the securities of the New Haven or other roads where the hauis are short and which may ind competitors in the trucks. His summary Of the railroad situa. Hon, taken in connection with his

WASHINGTON. d. c., June u
Colored people OF Washington, D. c,
incensed at segregation of guests at
the dedication OF the Lincoln Memorial
in Washington on May 80 on account
OF color, are asking the dismissal oil
Col Clarence c. Sheriff., superintend-
ent of Capital Grounds and Buildings,
at whose door the segregation order
is laid
Action has been taken by the Dis

warded resolutions demanding Colonel
Sherrill's dismissal to President Hard
ing, Chief Justice Taft, who is presi-
dent Of the Lincoln Memorial Com
mission, and the Secretary OF War.
The resolutions state that the segre-
CATION complained of the second Incl
dent of its kind in less than two
months, the first being the placing of
segregation placards in Rock Creek
Park. The resolutions contain warm
ing to the Republican party:
1T would be rude awakening and
a painful disillusionment to us to real
ize that the party was approving and
following a practice which was an in
cidcnt Of the institution of chattel slav-
cry. Such a realization, in the case of
a self-respecting people, could result
only in severing of ties which until
now have bound us to that party.

SAYS BLACK
RACE WILL
DISAPPEAR
Princeton Professor Calls
Attention To Increase OF
MuIattOeS In Race

WASHINGTON, d. c., June u
Prof Edwin {. Conklin of Princeton
in a recent address on The Future
of Evolution" delivered here, said that
among the wealthy race suicide is
eminent; and that the laboring classes
are increasing at an enormous rate.
And added to this thought was the ex-
preston that America is also faced
with the problem of race amalgama-
ton which is carried on between the
whites and Negroes. Mulattoes, he
said, now number one-fourth as many
as pure blacks in this country and are
multiplying twice the rate Of the
blacks. He is in fear unless the
wealthy classes increase their selec-
ton by artificial means in two or
three generations the loboring class
with amalgamated Negroes will be in
the ascendancy in this country.
The professor said in part:
1--WE are not concerned with which
class viii be in the ascendancy, at
this moment. We are concerned with
the evident fact with all the laws to
the contrary there is a process of
amalgamation going on which will in
the course of few generations absorb
the Negro race in America.
Those who know anything of his
tory in the abstract will verify the
facts regarding the different races
that have come together in their life
time.
The descendants of Nimrod and AS
sur, people whose stocks were differ
ent, and settled in Babylon, resulted
in the amalgamation of the two races.
The Tartars in the tenth century
overran China and as a result they
were amalgamated.
Like the wave of onrushing waters
the Goths and Vandals flowed into
Italy and these were absorbed.
During the fourth and sixth CEN
turies the Celts and the Scandinavians
hovered around the British Isles like
ants on dung hill and they two have
been absorbed.
The Mortimer and Gauls, since the
tenth century have lived side by side
in Normandy, and result has been alb
sorption.
These facts show historical def
initeness that point to the ultimate
amalgamation of the two races, the
white and the black in this country.
"And this will come about because
the white man is not sincere in his
pretended desire to keep himself apart
from the Negro and his descendants
If the descendants, the mulattoes, are
increasing twice as fast as the blacks,
then there will be a time when there
will be no blacks; and so. in process
of time, might we say evolution? there
will be no mulattoes. The Negro race
will have been obsorbed, and then the
race problem ended There will be
no distinct Negro in America,

given in consideration of her services
in organizing the women of the coun-
try so that the debt was paid off the

because of the fact that she repre-
sented the colored women of Ameri-

"The award was made specifically
for the above reasons. However, the
Committee could not fail to take into
consideration also the fact that Mrs.
Talbert was twice President of the
National Association of Colored Wo-
men and that all her life she has
been identified with uplift work, re-
ligious and civic, and has been a
leader of the women of her race"
The Committee making the award
consisted of Bishop Hurst, DIR. billiard
and Mr.. Hope. Rabbi Solomon Foster

HALSTED ST.
Is SCENE {
OF ATTACK
COPS Rush To Scene
And Arrest Victim As
ASsaiIants Go Free

A mob said to be composed MAIN
ly of Jews, attacked two girls and a
man Saturday morning in the market
district at Maxwell and Halsted
streets. The two girls, Misses Anna
and Elizabeth Williams, 1920 w.
Taylor street, were attacked when
they appealed to policemen to rescue
Arthur Brooks, 500 E. 35th street,
who was being beaten up.
Brooks had gone to the district to
make purchases at the public market,
when he was attacked without provo
cation by mob. Two policemen who
arrived upon the scene useI their
clubs freely upon him as he Was at
tempting to defend himself from his
assailants.
The Taylor sisters and Miss Rena
Jones, 1888 Fulton street, alighted
from a street car in the midst of the
disorder. They appealed to the po-
licemen to save Brooks from the
hands of the mob.
Turn On Girls
After Brooks had been beaten in
to submission, the mob then attacked
the girls. Rena Jones made her es-
cape, but the two sisters were attack
ed and brutally beaten. Elizabeth
Williams, who is only 16 years of age,
suffered severely from bruises.
In the meantime, the two police
men had put Brooks under arrest, but
had failed to apprehend any of the
members of the mob. Complaint at
the Maxwell street station failed to
result in any arrests, although the
, girls offered to point out their assail-
ants.
| Warrants Issued
Upon application by Atty. Richard
E. Westbrook, representing the Will
Jams sister, Judge John Bugee issued
warrants Tuesday for four men iden-
titled as members of the mob. In is
suing the warrants, Judge Bugee stat
ed that the refusal of the Maxwell
street police to arrest the girls as
sailants was the most fragrant case
of neglect of duty he had ever seen.
Trial was set for June Is.
