LONDON, Sept. 6.-The British

There are many problems for which
Soint discussion would prove valua-
BILE at the present time. A much
fuller use can be made of machinery
for Joint consultation and negotia-
ton between employers and en-
ployed.
"Such direct exchange of prac-
teal views would be of far greater
significance than the suggestion
which has been made for a spectacu-
lar national congress to discuss a
vague aspiration toward industrial
peace
"a discussion along these lines
would bring both sides face to face
with the hard realities of the present
economic situation, and might yield
useful results in showing upon what
terms cooperation is possible"

In a campaign for more and better
schools the colored people of Atlanta,
Ga, are publishing some figures. At
lanta has 21,09S colored children Of
school age. She has IS buildings for
them. Only five of these arc in any
way modern or up to date. For the
coming school year there will be two
less schools as one building has
burned down and a school has been
abolished. The pupils Of these schools
will be crowded into the existing
schools. Over-crowdjng was already a
bad feature of the situation and now
it will be much worse. One hundred
ninety-seven classes have a half day
session. Fifty-one classes have a
triple session. The Atlanta Board of
Education, when appealed to, argued
that they need not do more for Negro
education, as Northern philanthropists
do so much. They say that especially
need they do nothing for the higher
education of the group, since there are
these mission schools to take care of
high school and college students and
those training to be teachers. At
lanta University, Cannon and More
house, all supported by Northerners
are in Atlanta.

in the county to which all students
may go. The school authorities re-
fuse to build a high school for col

for high school. Others, they say,
should go to work. The association
points out that there are six high
schools in the district for white chill
dren and none for colored White
students are transported. to and from
distant schools free Of charge. The
parents also compare the pay of col

teachers receive from 5000 to $1,000
less year than do white teachers

to arbitrate. Dwight Morrow of the
U. S. Board of Meditation states this
in letter to A. Phillip Randolph. the
organizer Of the'Brotherhood of Sleep
ing Car Porters. Mr.. Morrow's first
offer Of meditation between the two
parties was refused by the Pullman
company. They claimed that Mr.. Ran
dolph was not a porter and that they
would not deal with an outsider. Be
sides they have union which repre-
sents the porters. The matter rests
here as the Meditation Board has no
power to force the Pullman company
to meet Mr.. Randolph or submit these
grievances of the porters to arbitra-
ton. The board has dropped the case.

night of Sept. 23, Doc" Rubie, aged
so years, we'll known character OF
Perryville and Havre de Grace, was

dict of death due to unavoidable ac-
cident, and the driver of the truck

both delighted with the generous and
delightful hospitality of the Presby-
terians of Southern Maryland. The
Presbytery was the largest held in

BRIDGE DAMAGED
BY FIRE

On Wednesday evening of last
week, between six and seven o'clock,
when the traffic over the Susque-
hanna river bridge between Perry
vile and Havre de Grace was heavy,
fire was discovered in the flooring of
the bridge, near the Cecil county
side.
Perryville and Havre de Grace fire
companies responded to the alarm
with engines, but as the fire could
not be fought from the bridge level,
the Havre de Grace engine was
placed on a scow and towed to a
point underneath the bridge. With
the assistance of the firemen on the
deck of the bridge the scow was
made fast by heavy cables. For an
hour and half the firemen played
two streams on the blaze and thus
conquered the flames, which for a
time looked dangerous. The floor
was burned for distance of about
so feet. The loss, however, will not
be heavy, as the floor of the struc-
ture is to be renewed just as soon as
the work OF adding the upper deck
is completed.
The Neeld Construction Com
pany of Pittsburgh, Pa, is double
decking the bridge, and expect to
have it open for traffic by Dec. L.
The origin of the fire is unknown,
but it is thought to have been start
ed by cigar or cigarette butt lodg-
ing between the planks on the floor
Of the bridge.
