the Negro race. Their condition at
present is desperate and continually
growing more and more desperate un-
der the whitening intensity of depres-
sion.
And unless remedial action is taken
soon, communistic leaders will exploit
them and fill them full of revolutions
airy activities.
At the present time there are over
20 million Negroes in America, the
majority of whom are living in dire
poverty and oppression. In 1882 as
in 1887 their lot is a hard one. They
are denied (by nearly 800 years of
stupid prejudice, intolerance, greed
pride and appalling Indifference on the
part of the white race) decent jobs,
decent living conditions, and decent
homes. They are denied justice in the
courts, protection of life and proper
ty in a number of southern states.
Their constitutional right to vote has
been held in contempt and in many
cases fatty denied, while labor unions
have erected impenetrable barriers
against black labor.
A recent survey Of the National
Urban League reveals that in Chi
cago, Negroes form A per cent of the
population, but four times that per-
centage of the unemployed; in Pitts
burgh Negroes make up per cent OF
the population but 38 per cent of those
out of work; in Baltimore the per-
centages are II and 31.5; in Buffalo
8 and %; in Philadelphia Z and 25.
Statistics that should convince the
most prejudiced of us that the Ne
groes are putting up with outrageous
treatment and cannot be expected to
countenance it much longer.
If for no other reasons than selfish
reasons the white race should strive
to correct the situation by giving the
Negro better opportunity Of earn
ing decent livelihood and a lot OF
even-handed justice and fair-play.
Only such a policy can thwart the
ever increasing force of the com
munists." -.

THE MACHINE
WITH POOR BRAKES
Timely Subject Discussed
By Dept of State Mo-
tor Vehicles
OF ACCIDENTS

The 'Iast foot" is the danger
zone for a motor vehicle. The au-
tomobile with inefficient brakes is
in constant peril Of entering this
zone to meet with disaster. A car
with braking equipment adequate
to enable hating it before 1t trav-
els the last foot has the necessary
safety margin.
There were six fatal accidents in
Connecticut during 1881 which
were caused through the failure of
braking devices on motor vehicles.
There were in all about ITO of the
more than 1900 motor vehicle
accidents which occurred as the re-
suit of braking difficulties at cru
cial moments.
Thus, says q bulletin of the de-
partment of motor vehicles which
recommends periodic inspection of
brakes by all car owners and OPP
orators, the Importance of working
efficiency of this mechanical device
cannot be overemphasized
Automobile manufacturers are
constantly improving the braking
equipment of developing modern
cars. building brakes which will
enable hating of cars at more
rapid rates or, as this phase of OPP
Grafton is reckoned, at shorter dis
tances than in the past. The pur-
chaser of one of the present-day
automobiles. however, takes over
from the manufacturer the respon-
sibility for maintaining the brak-
ing facilities at satisfactory per-
Torrance standards.
AS has been stated before in con-
nection with other mechanical fea-
lures and their effect upon accident
rates, the tendency of disciplining
authorities Is to look to the oper-
ator for evidences Of fault rather
than to equipment, for its possible
failure.
Brake tests made by the motor
vehicle department have revealed
that the average four-wheeled
brake car can be halted, at a speed
of 20 miles per hour, in a distance
of III feet. The department en-
gineers say that most cars in Con-
necticut to-day have brakes that
will permit meeting this average II
the device is properly effective
through care and attention to its
adjustment.
The average car today can be
stopped six times as quickly az the
same car can be accelerated. This
means that car will travel six
times as far as to accelerate to
certain speed as 1t will travel in
being accelerated by brakes. This,
too, indicates the tremendous
strain to which the brakes are sub
jected constantly. There must be
good brakes on every type of mo-
tor vehicle, including trailers and
emi-trailers.
The above bulletin, prepared by
the motor vehicle departing Mt
was read to-day by station an
nouncer from VITO, the Travellers.

Every piece of veterans legislation
