CONGRESS HERE
Labor Speaker Ahead
of Chicago Millionaire


Sharp contrasts of opinion were
shown coming from representatives
of different social classes at the ses-
sons of the National Association for
the Advancement Of colored People
conference when james w. Ford, a
labor representative, followed by
Julius RosenwaId, millionaire head of
the Sears Roebuek company, and later
by A. Phillip Randolph, organizer Of
the Brotherhood Of Pullman Porters,
gave the convention views of the ques-
tions relating to the equality between
the races.
Miss Mary Mcdowell, commissioner
of public welfare Of the city Of Chi
cago, presided at the session. In a
speech she gave some statistical in
formation regarding the Negro in in
6ustry.
James w. Ford, local leader of the
American Negro Labor Congress, fol-
lowed with very vigorous speech re-
Winding the conference that the peo-
pie with whom they were dealing are
almost entirely wage workers in the
city and in the agricultural districts.
Ford demanded that attention be
given to the question of equality of
the Negro as a worker in industry
especially emphasizing that equality in
doctors associations and lawyers
club was not sufficient, but that the
Negro masses must have equality in
the workshops where they are en-
ployed
Industrial Equality.
This means equality in the kind OF
employment at which Negroes are now
forbidden, it means equality on Sat
urday night in the pay envelope and
above all, equality in the trade unions.
Ford regretted that the convention
was giving practically no recognition
to the biggest field Of life of the Negro
masses.
After Ford came julius RosenwaId,

After Rosenwald came Randolph,
who made a speech telling how or
ganization of the porters had been ac-
complislred. He described the modest
support which he had received from
the labor movement. He declared that
1t was absolutely essential that the
black and white workers Join hands
for the benefit of labor as a whole.
Race Riots.
He pointed out that race riots are
made possible because of the friction
that is generated between white and
black workers. He declared that il
was necessary to change the minds
of those that were involved in such
rioting if the rioting was to end.
Those who participated in race riots
are largely people of the working
class. Organization of black and

The governors commission, while it

densed and evaporated milk, nearly
four pounds of cheese and almost three
gallons of ice cream, or a total of

Dairy products make up still larg-

The United States is not clearly as

BETTER BOYS

We believe every father and moth
er in Redwood County will be interest
ed in statement made by "Uncle
Joe" Cannon a few days ago, and now
going the rounds of the press. "Uncle
Joe," for many years leader of the
lower house of Congress, says the
world is growing better because re-
cords of institutions for the correct
of juveniles show steady decrease in
population. He has studied the re-
ports from not only his own state,
Illinois, but from many other states
and finds that fewer boys are being
sentenced to reformatories, industrial
schools and houses Of detention than
at any time in recent years.
"Uncle Joe" argues that this re-
fleets better home conditions and also
a more general determination on the
part of parents to see that their boys
are not permitted to spend all of their
time in idleness when they are not in
school. He feels sure parents are
coming to realize that it is their duty
to encourage their boys in learning
trade, with the result that more and
more of them are showing desire,
at an early age, to earn money.
''Uncle Joe" is optimistic, and sees
a generation ahead far more skilled
in industrial and commercial life than
any generation that has gone before.
That certainly ought to be good news
to fathers and mothers who have boys
growing up to take their place in the
ranks of that generation.

Four New Ulm hunters were arrest
ed Sunday by Game Warden Martin
Hahn in CRANKY township near the
Hacker farm on a charge of shooting
prairie chickens out of season. The
men were Henry Saffert, Henry Sche-

They were seen hunting in a field
with dog by the game warden. When
he arrived on the scene, they had hid
their guns and four prairie chickens
which they had killed. The warden
confiscated the four guns, one of them
a new Remington repeating shotgun,
and the chickens. The same after
noon, the four appeared before Justice
E. E. Miller in this city and pleaded
guilty to the charge. They were fin
