SOUTHERN NEGROES STRIKE" AGAINST
 POOR CONDITIONS

Jackson, Miss, March 3o.-The exodus of negroes from this state has caused a panic among plantation own CTS. There are 100000 negroes in Mississippi, and it is estimated that one-tenth of that number has left the state within the past six months. At that rate it will be but short time until the state will be stripped of it's plantation. labor. Plantation owners see visions of bankruptcy. That they are genuinely Alarmed is indicated by their willingness to make an effort to stop the migration by improving con ditions on the. plantations.
 The. Jackson Daily News quotes negro educational experts that the negroes want an education, they want tue sense of ownership and living wage.
 Until the plantations are cut up into smaller plats and sold to the ten ants, until negro is made to be- lieve that when a bale of cotton is sold he is going to directly share in the proceeds, and until a sufficient number of educational opportunities and, iron-clad promises of ample wages come into effect, then, and not until then, is the negro labor situa- ton going to be settled" says the Daily News

SENATE STANDPATTERS
 HAVE BACK TO THE WALL

Washington, March 3o.-The na- tional administration has been dealt hard blow by the death of United States Senator Nicholson of Colorado who was a staunch defender of the administration. His successor will be named by Governor Sweet, who be- longs to the minority party.
 Before the passing of Senator Mich olson, the administration claimed a senate majority of 10. At best, this is a "paper majority" as it includes Senators La Toilette, Brookhart, Frazier, Borah, Ladd, and several others who are more or less pro nounced in their disregard for the party caucus.
 This "paper majority" is now re- duced to nine by the death of the Colorado senator Formerly it took six of the independents to block a party measure. Now 1t takes but five, and it is openly declared that it will be impossible for the administration to organize the senate, when 1t con venes in regular session next DeCem- ber
 With the increasing power of the senate independents in both parties the chances for legislation favorable to big business decreases. There will be no anti-strike legislation passed, and the reduction of surtaxes on big business will find rough travelling. Proposals for a ship subsidy, if pre- scented, will be hooted off the senate floor, while the tariff law, living costs and the transportation act will be bombarded from every side.

After the exciting race for big
ger" radio receiving sets, amateurs
Of the. country are finally settling
down to wait for the simplest form
of receiver they can buy, which will
at the same time bring in a broad
cast concert from a reasonable dis
lance.
The rage for more tubes, for radio
and audio-frequency amplitiers is
weakening. Instead, there has come
a steady demand for the simplest
form of apparatus that will do the
work required. Super-regenerative,
super-heterodyne and any other
super" sets are only subjects of ex-
pertinent. The added effect they
produce does not as yer compensate
for the amount of extra parts and
extra complications put into them.
Radio bugs are toying with such
Eets, but the large majority of radio
fans-those who want to sit down
and enjoy a concert Of an evening
don't want to be bothered with such
complicated affairs.
Besides, they cost much more
money. An that isone reason why
crystal sets are coming back into
popularity. They arc cheaper than
the tube receivers and they

stations up to fifty miles distant,
even more clearly than do the tube
vets.
And money isn't the only advan-
tsge tho crystal set has over the
other. There's no bother with A and
e batteries, with tubes and rheostats
and transformers, and there is no
oscillation which causes %squealing
and a poor entertainment for the
listener.
Radio engineers are working on
processes by which they could SIM
pltfy the receiving set. and already
considerable progress has been
made. Radio dealers assure them
their final product will have a large
market. for purchases already show
The mind of the radio novice is
II useful entertainment.
The radio receiver has ended be-
ing a ~plaything and experimental
subject and has entered the realm
directed toward the use of a simple
receiver.

John Whitlock, Jr., son of MI. and
Mrs. John Whitlock, of lower James
burg, had the experience Of his
young life over the weekend when
he tried coasting on the lake near
the falls. All went we'll until John
lost control of the sled as it neared
an open part in the ice and into it
went young Whitlock, sled and all.
His cries for help brought James
Christy to his aid and after quite an
effort the youngster wac pulled from
the deep water.
Complaint has been made by Miss
Flora Morrison of the destructive
practice of many who enjoy night
skating on the lake at the cost of the
owners of the Buckelew home close
by. Bonfires go with skating but the
practice of appropriating thu fence
surrounding the property for fuel is
what caused the determination to ar
rest anyone found using this fuel for
the bonfire. There is an ordinance
f%orbidding the building of fires in the
borough streets.

Radio Fans Can be Forecaster.

Radio fans can make good wealth
er prophets if they study the action
of their receiving sets.
For weather afar off affeats the
set. For instance, if the receiver is
tuned in on a station 500 miles away,
and the waves bring In the concerts
mor family than ever, it is an .ndi-
cation of low barometric pressure
and therefore of a storm or other
form of bad wea her in the region

Then if the fan tunes in stations

OF the storm. BY simple ~calcula-
tons, the amateur radio fan can be-
come amateur weather prophet by
telling when that storm will reach
his city, if it is coming his way.
