NEGRO FARMERS FAST MOVING TO NORTHERN
 INDUSTRIAL CENTERS
Georgia Loses 13 Per Cent of Farm Hands In-AIa-
 bama Effected

WASHINGTON, April PA gen. eral movement of southern negro farmers to northern industrial cen ters where high wages are obtain able is indicated in a special survey of farming districts in the south made by the department of agricul- ture. Unprofitable cotton growing due to boil weevil conditions, unrest among returned negro troops who experienced more attractive living conditions away from farms during and after the war, and breakdown of the contract labor system are cited in the report, made public today, as contributory causes of the migra- ton.
 Approximately 13 per cent or 32.000 of the total number of negro farm hands in Georgia is estimated to have moved north during the last twelve months and the movement continues although crops for the present sea son are already started.
 large abandonment of acreage is reported. and the labor shortage is expected to be a major factor in limiting acreage this season. The situation in Georgia is declared to be much worse than that which pre- vails generally.
 From South Carolina. about 22,750 negro farmers, or about 3 per cent of the total. negro farm population have departed.
 The movement from Florida is es- timated at about 2 per cent of negroes living in or near farming communities.
 Alabama reports that approximate- ly S1a per cent of it's negro farm population has moved north since the last crop season.
 Arkansas shows a movement of about l5,000 negro farmers, or about 312 per cent of the negro farm popu- lation.
 Movement from Kentucky has been very small, and from Missouri, North Carolina and Oklahoma no migration Is reported.
 Louisiana reports an exodus of about 1 per cent; Tennessee about 4,500 negro farmers; since April q, 1922. while in Texas the farm labor situation apparently Is not so serious as in the eastern cotton growing states

 MT. Porter took issue with state ment in an article signed by Lord Robert that the league had struck vigorous blows at world evils like the sale of opium, cocaine and other noxious drugs and in- closed with his letter, which he made public today. copies of his commit tees hearings and its report on the resolution adopted in the concluding days of the last session of Congress calling for the limitation of produce ton of opium and coca leaves to the quantity needed O nly for strictly medicinal and scientific purposes"
 When a similar resolution was submitted by the opium commission to the league assembly, he said, the latter substituted the word "le2iti- mate" for the phrase strictly me- dicinal and scientific" at the sug- restion of the Indian delegate that "the Indian population is throughout various areas without adequate med : teal assistance, and therefore habit ually takes opium in small doses as a prophylactic or as an effective remedy against diseases"

JUDGES PAY .FOR OFFICES
 ID D0 WORK
Lack of Space in Present Court House Condemned By Judge Dan Green, Dean of Jurists of Jefferson
 Circuit Court

County judges are being forced to do their work either at home or in offices rented at their own expense the county court house. Judge Dan A. Green, one of the leaders in the movement for new court house declared Sunday. Judge Green said the jury rooms and court rooms were too small and that both were badly ventilated and insanitary. Altogeth CT, the building is inadequate to meet the needs of the day, he said,
 No office space is available in the court house at present for the use of the county judges and most Of them are renting space in downtown office buildings. Projects for the construction of a new county court building were placed before the reve- nue board recently, but were disre- garded on account of the attention which was being given to the road construction program.
 o o O
 Judge Greens Plan.
 
 which he says would meet the needs of the situation adequately. His plan contemplates the raging of the present county jail and the erection in it's place of new ten-story, steel frame, fireproof structure. The two top floors would be used as county jail, with the warden's office on one of the floors. The sheriff's office would be on the seventh floor, and the rest of the building would be used as office space by county of- ficials.
 For courtroom space, Judge Green contemplates encouragement of the Interior of the present court house for exclusive devotion to court rooms. Each court room would have a private office for the judge and would be large enough to meet the needs of the court. Judge Green es- inmates that 1t would require the entire space of the present court house building to supply space re quirements of the various courts old county Jail would have to be re- moved, Judge Green pointed out.
 O O O
 Jail and Court House Together.
 Regarding the location of the pro posed new county jail and cour Eouse, Judge Green declared that i was almost necessary that they b' together.
 Some people are opposed to county jail in the heart of a city declaring it unsightly," Judge Greer explained. but it is almost neces- sary to have the court house con nected with the jail. With the jai removed from the court house toe much time is lost in the hearing ol criminal cases by the transfer o1 prisoners to and from the jail ane the court house. If ten-story building were erected. with the ia. on the top floors, there could be nc danger of the prisoners escaping This in itself would remove the ne cessity for heavy jail walls. thus eliminating the objection against un- sightliness."

SPIRITS TROUBLED HIM

NEWARK, N. J., April 22-Hubert Duvany, who had the lonesome job of night watchman at Dreamland park, on the outskirts of Newark, dwelt among the spirits. Long nights, during which time he had only his own company, Duvany pom dered about the life hereafter
 Just few days ago Duvany told his brother he had paid s25 out of his weekly wage of $30 for a book on spirtualism and considered the money exceedingly well spent
 Duvany expressed, to his brother, desire to know more about the spirits who, he said, visited him during his dreary watch at night.
 The watchman early today fired a shot into his head. killing himself instantly.
 He left this note to his brother:
 Pm tired of this distracted. tor mented life and I'm convinced that I've outlived my usefulness in this Vprld. l am, therefore. determined to find the solace l need in this grim embrace of death.
 If it is true, as I believe it is, that there is another life waiting for us all beyond the grave. in the other world, I'm sure I can do more good there than here"

NEAR EAST PEACE FARLEY OPENS AT
 LAUSAUNE A G \ l N
Oil Concessions In Turkey May Drag United States
 Into Conference

LAUSANNE, April 22.-(By Asso- cated Press 1.-The stage is all set for q resumption tomorrow of the so dramatically ended last February.
 Conference circles anticipate that the United States may play the lead ing role before the curtain falls on the last act, with the final scene either the signing of a peace com pact or the renewal of war.
 In the public mind the prospective importance of the United States in the present conference Is ascribed to the Turkish parliaments recent rati- flcation of the Chester concession, granting extensive rights for the construction of railroads throughout Turkey and the exploitation of min eral properties in a zone within 20 kilometers on either side of the projected railway nne. France and Great Britain both are looking at this concession with questioning eyes, and as economic subjects will form one of the chief issues in the dispute between the Turks and the Allies, both these countries may op- pose it here.
 France Objects.
 France contends that the Chester grant conflicts with the railroad concessions received from the old Ottoman government in 1914, on which France already had advanced 17000,000 Turkish pounds. And Great Britain says frankly that if the Chester concession affects the mandated territory of Mosul as the newspaper accounts say 1t does, tEen Great Britain will regard this concession as non-exis tent, so far as it affects Mosul or any other part of the Irak territory. which is under the British mandate.
 The American official attitude, as it is understood here, will be to con tinue to back the traditional policy of the open door and equal oppor- unity for all nations: and if the American government finds after ex- animation that the Chester conces- sion is legitimate one and does not violate the American conception of equal privileges to all, then it is predicted in allied quarters that Jo- seph c. Grew, the American minister to Switzerland. who will head the American delegation. will defend this grant in case it is officially protested at the Lausanne confer
