From the Detroit News.
An old proverb, "He who never
made a mistake never made anything

this type of individual is
rarely met, but when this does happen,
it Is usually discovered that
there are quite as many and a3 serious
Instances of failures and chasing
after false trails to his or her
credit as are registered against even
the mos t guilty of us.

Chicago, Feb. 26?The negro contingent
of Chicago's "army of unemployed"
totals 20,000, and though, H
the South is beckoning them "back H
home again, they show no disposition
to leave, according to Phil H. Brown, ?
chairman of the negro survey com-'
'mittee of the Republican national . ?
committee who has just completed a
'study of the situation here.
According to George Arthur of the
JY. M. C. A. at least 8,8000 of the 20.
000 have come here during the business
depression from Michigan and
Ohio automobile manufacturing localities.
He also said that the banks holding
negro deposits have reported no
noticeable draught on the funds,
though increases during the depression
have been almost negative.
The deposit books "stand fairly at
:par," the banks report.
