BIG DEMAND FOR COLORED LABORERS IN
ALL PLANTS IN THE PITTSBURGH DISTRICT
(Prcston News Servicc)

Pittsburgh, Pa. April 4.-"Practical
ly, every corporation in the Pitts
burgh District Is demanding more Ne
grOes for common labor" declared
John II. Clark. executive secretary OF
the Urban League today. Mr.. Clark sal 1
that each mail brought to the Urban
League of Pittsburgh from southern
Negroes requests for jobs and transpor
tatsons. Houses. more houses, is Pitts
burgh's real need to comfortably and
profitably satisfy the situation and
yet. only few Of the larger industries
have actually begun to build" he
said.
THE Urban League fearing an un.
usual amount of congestion before the
Pittsburgh Industries can properly a..
con'modate Negro families, has gotten
in touch with the Secretary of Agricul
turo of Pennsylvania and the County
Farm Agents to see what demand
there is for farm labor and the posi-.
bilities OF accommodating Negro Farm
labor. 1t was found that there are
aboLs 10000 farms vacant or partly
worked in Pennsylvania; that West.
ern Pennsylvania farmers are plan
ming to cultivate smaller parts of their
farms than ever this year because of
zeal farm labor shortage. The Coun.
ty Agents who replied to our queries
were unanimous in announcing this IL
Dor shortage but many questioned
whether Negroes would be &C.
ceptable to these farming commuu1
ties. About 5000 Negroes wanting to
come to Pittsburgh this spring, now
live in rural sections and are farm la.
borers. The League hopes to induce
some of these men to go to the farms
OF Western Pennsylvania and eventual
ly rake up some OF the vacant farms
throughout the State" Mr.. Clark con-

III this connection we recall another

have cost the colored people many
times as much to defend as it cost

We have to say maybe" for nobody

this one-man matter did cost.
And these ARKANSAS Cases" are thu
most celebrated legal battle colored
Americans ever won. Before this New

when the Supreme Court of South

This case now demonstrates that at

movement, organizations OF every sort
including religious. fraternal, social.
educational, business and labor, and
the press.
Speaking for the N. A. A. C. p.
James Weldon Johnson said in part:
I'VE can do two things here We can
exchange ideas, or we can attempt to
accomplish something. Both things
are good. We must bear in mind how
ever, that in the exchange of ideas
there is no limit. but in accomplish
ment we are confronted by conditions.
LAS to actual accomplishments,
what can this conference do? The sign
ing of eoncordat is one thing. We
have very often been handicapped
among colOred people themselves by
the reports that there was antagonism
between the leaders. This is not so
true as has been noised about. IL we
ever feel that the Negro is going to he
one unified mass ho-cver, We : -
bound to be disappointed Nc"ar~o - e
human being even before he ie = Nc
grn. and we are going to have human
differences. Nevertheless the opinion
that great amount o. G.stori o&..E:s
between the leaders has do-o rs ::
great deal of harm, This conference
can accomplish much by sending out to
the Negroes of the United States the
inspiring news that the leaders have
gotten together. allowing for differ
ences Of opinion, and are working for
common end"

for harmony and cooperation in the
race, are as follows: For the African

My heart leaps up upon this day,
Most blessed of all days of the year
I lay all doubts and cares away,
Hope blossoms bright. my way to
cheer.
For on this happy day of days,
I see in all things life anew.
And earth Is decked in dazzling green
And skies are softest blue.
And flowers bloom with modest grace,
AMI shed rich fragrance on the air,
And birds sing songs from tree to tree
Transporting rapture everywhere.
AL! nature latent seems with praise
Some great joy reigns in every cline;
While from the distant hills away,
The church bells sweetly chime.
What means this joyous proclamation?
Awake to eXultation.
Our Lord has risen from the dead,
And dwells among the living;
He reigns eternal in the skies.
What inspiration giving!
He lives! our Saviour and our
friend,
What need have we of sorrow? q
We live in Him throughout life's day,
We reign with Him tomorrow.
o Christ! Thy resurrection day,
In recognition nature bends,
And into our benighted souls
Thy wondrous glory now descends.
We kneel before thy nail pierced feet
With reverent alteration;
And may the joyful tidings spread
To every sin curse! nation.
Till North and South and East and

Shall know the priceless story,
And to thy name this Easter day,
Give endless praise and glory.

The dispatch said the report was

His coming to the premiership just
after returning home from heading
the Japanese delegation to the Wash

inaugurating an suspicious era for
Japanese-American relations.

notice during the Russo-Japanese war
when he was one of the heroes Of the
great sea fight of Tsushima, in which
the Russian armada was wiped out

while the owner is making adjust
ments or driving closely behind a
closed body truck, bus or car, is the
warning given by DR.. l.. S. Golfer,
vice president of the Anne rican Auto

the narrow escape from death resulting
from carbon monoxide gas poisoning
of two young men who were plotting
an automobile float entered by the
Cincinnati Auto Club in a recent civic
parade in Cincinnati. The parade was
moving slowly and in close formation
and the young men We're enclosed in a
specially built cab. The carbon mon
oxide gas fumes from the eXhausts of
the cars and trucks ahead resulted in
both young men being hurried to the
hospital for emergency treatment.
Young ladies on the feat wore affected
by the gas to mildcr degree.
Poisoning from carbon monoxide
gas from the exhaust of the automo-
bile engine is more prevalent than the
average automobile owner appre-
ciates," said DIR. Golfer who as ply
stefan and an enthusiastic motorist
has made a special study of the sub
jcct. "Often motorists are affected
