misinformed belief that fire insurance premium
rates should Immediately be reduced.
The President of the National Board Of Fire
Underwriters recently commented on the factors that
caused the improved underwriting experience. 1t
was partly due to the absence Of major conflagra-
tions during the two years, and partly due to de-
cided diminution in the number Of fires Of suspic-
GUS origin But the main cause of the reduction lies
in the fact that during periods Of depression inven-
tories of insurable goods carried by commercial con
Germs are much below normal. AS a result, there is
a heavy reduction in the amount the insurance com
panies have at risk. In addition, the ~curtaileo
stats Of industrial plants during depressions are
made up Of the more efficient and careful employ
es.
Consequently, it is logical to assume that better
times will again see increased stocks Of goods OF
hand-and viii again provide jobs for careless, run
of-the-miIl employees. And then the fire loss viii
probably soar once more.
1t takes more than two or three years to es
tablish averages for future insurance underwriting
Ii fire loss is down permanently, insurance rates
will follow, as soon as time has justified reductions
Hastily forced reductions, based on insufficient data
would simply force retrenchment Of the insurance
industry's many essential activities, to the detri
ment Of every property owner and policyholder.

No Segregation in
California Camps

Los Angeles, Calf, July 8, CAMP
Definite contradiction of published
reports that the L. Al. County Relief
Administration contemplates segre-
cation Of Negroes now members Of
Civilian Conservation Corps camps
was made last week by Harold E..
Pomeroy, assistant director, LACRA
His statement follows:
In reply to a query as to the
segregation Of Negroes in CCC camps
in Ventura, Santa Barbara and Los
Angeles counties:
There has been a statement
made by any AUTHORIZED official of the
l. A. County Relief Administration
that there is contemplated a plan to
segregate by races men in CCC
camps.
"Not ever the SERA Administrator
for California could make such a rul-
ing. The reason for this Is that the
United States Army has complete re-
sponsibility for the operation Of these
camps.
"The LACRE acts merely as a re-
cruiting agency"

Crawford Pamphlet is
Dud at N. "A. "a.
c. p. Convention

St. Louis, Mo-, July IL, (ANP)-
Maybe when the delegates to the
26th annual conference af the Ma
tional Association for the Advance
ment Of Colored People return to
their homes and have the opportunity
to read the pamphlet entitled who
is the N. "A. A, G. Pr 81 gener-
ously supplied to them BY the Misses
Martha Gruening and Helen Board
man, they will conclude that they
were sadly remiss in failing to take
any action on the subject matter of
the bold brochure.
But facts are facts and the two
big facts are: First. that all these
who attended the first big mass
meeting received copies Of the PAM
phlet and its subject matter was not
discussed officially at any Of the con
ference sessions, and if there were
any sub rosa discussions, informal or
formal, they escaped your cores
pendent.
The pamphlet contained a wither-
ing Indictment Of Walter White. the
executive secretary, and Charles
Houston and Associate counsel, in the
trial Of George Crawford, the Vir-
ginia mar now serving two life sent
ences in the ~penitentiary for the
murder Of two white women
The few persons who had the op-
portunity to read the pamphlet before
the convention opened expected the
issue to be fought out on the floor
Of the convention. Even Mr.. White
thought SO and when interviewed
was undecided as to whether he
should bring it up himself although
no time had been set aside in the
conference program and the delegates
would have had to vote to consid-
it.
AS it was, the pamphlet was for
about and the selection Of the
convention city for 1886, instead Of
the Crawford case, became the most
issue Of the conference.

Southern Whites
Object to CCC Camps
For Negroes

Washington, July 3-(By Staff Cor
respondent, ANP)-Southern whites
rather enjoy seeing Negroes work or
the roads and live in convict road
camps even if said camps are located
near them or their resorts, as long
as those performing such services are
classified as convicts and under the
surveillance of armed guards. When
however, the ball and chains, shackles
and the armed watcher are absent
three is a difference.
This fact Is brought out by the
howl that has come from several
communities down South, protesting
the establishment Of CCC camps for
Negroes in vicinity Of white sections
or resorts. Two protests that are
typical come from C~olliersville, Ten
nessee and Elizabethtown, North Car
DINA and in each instance congress-
men, senators and other mouthpieces
have been contacted to add weight
and pull" to the protest Of the citi-
zens.
From down in the North Carolina
town m the plea to desist from
placing Negroes in the established
CCC camps, because it is adjacent to
White Lake, a resort in which no Ne
groes live and their presence might
bring about strained relations be-
tween the races, endanger the well
being Of the white patrons Of the
resort and cause a general ~deprecia-
ton in property values. Singletary
Lake, however, would be an ideal
spot because it has been used solely
BY Negroes for several years.
Paralelling the North Carolina case
is that Of Colliersville, where the
citizens became aroused by reports
from Fort Oglethorpe, Ga, that Ne
groes would be sent to the CCC
camp at Frank Woods on Poplar Pike.
Senator Mcclellan, according to re-
ports reaching the Capitol City has
been swamped with letters, kilograms,
post cards from citizens Of the sec
ton pointing out that the placing Of
Negroes in the camp would cause q
calamity as far as business is con-
cerned.
In North Carolina it is said that the
resort, White Lake was erected by
Negro convict labor and in the Ten
nessee sector Negro road gangs,
prisoners r frequently engaged in
building and keeping in repair the
Pike on which the camp is supposed
to be established.
