Seven geographical divisions were

HEADLINE URBAN
LEAGUE CONFERENCE

New York, Sept. IA (ANP)-|
Atty. Gen. Francis Biddle and John
B. Blandford Jr., administrator Of
the National Housing agency, will
be headline speakers at forthcom-
ing annual conference Of the Ma
tional Urban League, which opens
on Sept. % in Columbus.
The attorney general, speaking
on the opening night of the confer
ence, will discuss some Of the ma
jor issues facing the American
people today, especially in the field
of race relations. Mayor Rhodes of
Columbus will bring official greet
ings to this first session, which is
devoted to the topic: "a Challenge
to American Liberalism. William
H. Baldwin president of the Ma
tional Urban league, will preside.
The report of league activities for
1914 will be made by Lester B.
Granger, executive secretary.
Blandford will speak on the af-
ternoon of Oct. 2, on the subject:
"The Need for Low Cost Housing"
Sharing in this important discus
sion on the future of housing for
Negroes are Hilyard Robinson,
well-known Washington architect,
and a representative Of the Ma
tional Association of Real Estate
Boards. The significance of this
discussion is reflected in the fact
that more than 1900 agencies are
now planning the future housing
of America. The Urban league re-
alizes that these planning groups
and the American public must rec
ognize the necessity Of providing
adequate housing for all segments
of the population. If they do not
the nation must face a demoral-
izing increase in juvenile delin.
quency and crime, and in othe1
anti-social attitudes which breet
in the slums.

PACIFIC:
Subs Take Toll

With the Allies pressing closer TO
Japan's inner supply lines feeding
her booming war industry, u. S.
subs and air forces can be expected
to take an increasing toll of enemy
shipping, navy secretary James
Forrestal declared.
In reporting that U. s. subs re-
Gently had sent Is Jap cargo ves-
sells and two warships to the bot
tom, Forrestal said such losses
crimped the enemy's whole war pro-
gram, since he must move about IS
million tons of water-borne freight
into the home islands yearly, in-
GLIDING rs per cent of his oil and
gas supply from the East Indies.
Despite heavy marine losses, For
restal said, the Japs have lightened
the effects through use Of huge
stockpiles of materials built up be-
fore the war, lessening Of trans
port to encircled South Pacific
areas, and the utilization Of surplus
prewar shipping tonnage.

LEND-LEASE:
Steady SHIPMENTS

Lend-lease shipments Of food TO
the Allies continued at a steady pace
during the first five months Of 1914,
with some commodities being sent
in larger volume and others in
smaller amounts, with little net eff
feet on domestic supplies.
During the period, 9.3 per cent Of
the total U. S. meat supply was
shipped under lend-lease, with the
major portion consisting Of pork.
About 1915 per cent Of the nations
pork was sent abroad.
The United Kingdom and Russia
continued to receive most Of the
lendlease food, with the U. S. sup
plying 10 per cent of British needs.
