era of record home and apartment
building? The causative forces are
to be found deep in the nature of
the steady stream of 1000 to g.
500 Negroes which are believed
settling monthly in Chicago.
(Some Negro spokesman believe
this figure should be smaller;
southbound trains are daily "full"
of Negroes, they note, who have
decided they have stayed long
enough in the Windy City,
Official Answer
New arrivals by and large, are
least able to move into jobs with
higher-than- minimum pay, and by
custom in the rural South, are
probably least ready to assume
the full burden of close city living.
1t is for them that landowners d.
vide already-small apartments in
rundown, share-the-bath tene-
ments. For if horrifying, drab,
dark and dirty to the second gen.
Grafton Negro Chicagoan or middle
income white citizen, a one-room
and kitchenette flat-with hot
water available three nights a
week, and heated all winter-may
lock good to a sharecropper family.
In answer to the silent accusa-
ton of these conditions, official
Chicago gives strong answer:
The Mecca is gone, as are many
blocks that were "far worse" than
it. Abandoned autos by the tens
of thousands have been hauled
from. vacant lots. Bubble by the
scores of tons have been swept
from alleys.
More important, with the excuse
of wartime emergency removed,
the city has condemned and
wrecked the grimmest sodden wood
and blackened brick eyesores. Even
the harshest critic must concede
that today's worst is many shades
better than that of a decade ago.
If Chicago has turned its back
on "pilot projects" which have
heartened travellers to Baltimore
or PHILADELPHIA, some weight must
be given the city's claim that it
has, indeed, leavened the lump with
somewhat higher standards of
cleanliness.
While this series has been in
preparation, the city has passed
new housing code which officials
believe will have immediate and
drastic" effects in preventing fur

AWARDED SCHOLARSHIP -
Vernon M. Lee, a 1856 graduate of
Florida A. and M. University with
a degree in political science, was
recently notified by DR.. William
H. Hale, director of Educational
Activities of the Alpha Phi Alpha
Fraternity, Inc, that he had been
awarded a $4,000 fellowship to
do graduate work in his major field.
Lee, a native of Fort Pierce, and
who has been blind for almost half
of his u years, was graduated
with distinction" during the June
commencement ceremonies. Prior
to his graduation he had been a.
warded a $4,000 scholarship by
Atlanta University.

Their slum conditions generating
conversions" of existing dwellings,
and the upgrading of large seq
ments Of the city now either stag
nant or in decline.
Meanwhile, Chicago can cite A.
2O5 public housing units now in
operation as evidence that concern
is given to the low income arrival;
he is not wholly at the mercy of
the slum landlord.
Proof that public housing does
provide a temporary refuge for
the Negro is shown by two sta
tistics: rs per cent of the public
housing residents are Negroes. The
average term of residence is only
21a years.
Expanding The, Ghetto
BY that time, the tenant has
found a spot that suits him better
or has boosted his income above
the maximum permitted.
If the city's estimate that 200
800 units Of private housing are
reaching Negroes per week, an
analyst may hope that an equilib-
rum may be reached in the visible
future.
But to this Negro leaders reply
holly that adequate" housing for
Negroes, desirable as that is, is
not the solution. "We are not
eliminating the ghetto now. We
are expanding it, under pressure
from Within" interprets Mr..
Berry.
True, Chicago does have inte-
grated housing, and it has won
wide attention in the city and be-
yond. "You find" Mr.. Ottley eau
tons the observer enthusiastically,
chat we don't have true integra-
ton yet. When Negroes move in,
two groups stay: The young ideal
lists, and the older folk whose chill
dren have married and moved
away. The middle group still has
not faced up to the problem"
And the same forces that prompt
rent-gouging of new arrivals from
the South are to be found at the
edge Of the expanding black belt,
i, Mr.. Berry. adds. "Exploiters-
black and white-will come to a
white family and tell them how
they will lose money if they stay
when Negroes move in nearby.
They want the home-owner to sell
too low so that they can sell to
the Negro too high"
Negro leaders are distressed at
the economic loss suffered by
white sellers, as at the unfair
price to the Negro buyer. But
within the framework of their
view that all the community should
insist that all Chicagoans of what
ever color live up to the statutes
concerning housekeeping, they ex-
press little sympathy for white
families deeply troubled by ad'
vancing Negro areas.
Friction Decreases
! When government actions have
led to movement of Negro families
into new areas Unto new housing
projects like Trumbull Park, for
example), the results are not yet
inspiring. Chicago police are still!
on the alert, months after initial
unrest was stamped out.
Two signs, by contrast, are seen
by Negro leaders as hopeful. In
high income areas of several cities
Negroes we'll up in their profes.
sions have been accepted without
great friction, and Negroes spokes-
men here see as favorable step
since moneyed families they argue

Now he is a vice-president of

He was elected to three terms in

His place in the assembly was

was three times chosen by all the

Mr.. Caldwell says that one of
his principal endeavors during his
term as council president will be
to support the beginning of Den
ver's urban renewal program.
In this federal-aid program
neighborhoods threatened with de-
generation into slums will be re-
habilitated. Properties beyond re-
pair will be condemned. Owners
may borrow federal funds at low
cost, to bring their properties W
to the city's minimum housing
standards.
Some landlords have expressed
opposition to this program, but the
council is carrying it through none
theless. Of the two areas selected
for it's beginning, one is in Mr.

riculum. He persisted. however. He
wrote to textile companies, asking
where he could find the work he
wanted.
Out of those inquiries came the
information that half-dozen
schools offered precisely the pro-
gram he wanted. He chose the
Philadelphia Textile Institute. thus
taking the first step in a career he
has pursued since.
All advanced colleges, of course,
provide courses of instruction in
many distinctive and novel subjects.
Some are known mainly for such
specialization. One may be pri-
marily a mining college. But an
other may have no courses at all
in mining engineering. If you are
aiming for specific kind of train
ing, you will want to go to college
prepared for that speciality.
