Migration of Blacks Northward
Encounters Serious Economic
Obstacles

ATLANTA, June 25.-The ne

about due to encounter serious
economic obstacles, according to
agriculturists and civid organiza-
lions here who have discussed the
question. 1t is stated that the de-
mand in the North for negro labor
gives evidence of being supplied.
There is a slackening of activity
in various lines, due to causes
which may or may not, it is assert
ed, bring about a depression of
considerable proportions; it will, it
seems today, be temporary and in
considerable. But while work halts
the trek of Black folk in search of
higher wages and supposedly better
working conditions goes on.

This suggestion is not made in
the form of unfavorable criticism

raisers know that every bushel of

pocket loss. That is what farmer
Chester O'Neil, whose combined har-
vester-thresher President Harding
piloted at Hutchinson, told him in
terms and figures so terse and un-
answerable that they constituted an
impressive rural eulogy.
The farmer Is convinced that he is
doomed to till his soil at a loss, for
the dual reasons that agricultural
labor is costly and freight rates
freights. When you ask him how
he knows that the carriers are charg-
ing more to haul his grain and hogs
to market than they are entitled to
ask, the farmer trots out an array
Of stunning figures. In the very
week the President visited Kansas.
the Kansas City Southern Railway
which derives the bulk of its income
from the rural traffic, advertised
broadcast in the newspapers that it
is spending $3,974,450 for improve
ments and new equipment. Then the
advertisement adds:

railroads have authorized expendi-
lures for equipment and other facili-
ties of approximately $1,100,000,000 in
1928"
These stupendous figures faunted
in the western farmers face embitter
him beyond words. He is morally

largely-if not exclusively-out of
the farmers pockets. 1t is fresh evil

pay for everything he buys. Until
that disparity is wiped out he will
know no content.
Until the spread" between what
the producer of farm products can
obtain at market and the price the
consumer has to pay is ironed out
the farmer will nurse the grievance
that somewhere, somehow, he is the
victim of an unfair and an unsquare
deal.
1t Is the governments business, the
farmer argues, to find where the in
justice and the inequality lie. and
eradicate them. He is prepared, as

but the President will have to beat
good intentions and fair pledges into
