THURSDAY, JUNE 7TR, 1922 The Negro Migration. The migration of negroes from the South to the industrial centers of the North is already causing our Northern brethern to “view with alarm” the situation that has been and is being created. Some time ago, The People published extracts from the Christian Science Monitor, a newspaper published in Boston, which warned the negro that “ his best habitat is in the South; . . that he is not wanted in the North." etc. At that time this paper ex pressed the opinion “that in this migration the negro will suffer more than he will injure Shis section.** That this view incorrect is borne out by a special dispatch from Bos ton to The State, under date of Juno 2nd, wherein is found the statement that the negro “is not bettering himsdf In any way by migrating to the New England States, and that he is not improving his condition by removal la this oortton. but is ta fart creating considerable hardship, not only far him self but for the whe really roaeat hts arneal “ Of fWtals of the Nee thoeo stateoaeeu (ho mailer of U the at Seel 1— of * m aa effect U pm at the petal whore me are face to face with a serious problem.** W# also commend It to the careful con sideration of the negro who Is con templating leaving his home in the South for a place in the cold sun of the North. The People is of the opinion that there trill be a better understanding of the negta problem in the North in the very near future. In Memoriam. Blackville.

Why Pi la Better be what the Monroe. Doctrine la to the Americans. To prove that this treaty can be made a success, look at the Monroe Doctrine and how the safety of America is in volved in K. But the “Monroe Doctrine” guards Americans in America only. Since it is proven that the Monroe Doctrine is a sucess and involves the two Americas’ protection againkt the outside countries, the world needs and can have a similar protection if it will only half try. • The World War has taught America that she can no longer keep out of international quarrels and feuds. Then if problems arise, the nations can meet io a conference and discuss the matter fully and frankly in order that they may arrive at an understanding as to the most effici ent measures to be taken; and, whether jointly or separately, to reach the best conclusion for all in volved. ' , Then the time will not be far dis tant when American genius and American influence will dominate the earth; when freedom’s flag will illumine all the skies; when the mandate of the great Republic will be heard and obeyed throughout the world. -A Miss Eunice Greene.

According to the labor depart ment of the New England States, "fully 40 per cent, of the thousands of negroes who hav» arrived here from the South this year are now unemployed and dependent upon charitable organizations.” And we read further: “As pointed out by the South Carolina executive, race prejudice prevails in New England. A Northerner will readily deny this, but the treatment accp-ded the Southern negro, not only as an in dividual, hut en masse, furnishes the proof.” “1 he Southern negro, attracted to the New r England States by er- j roneous reports of an abundance of employment, high wages and su perior working and living condi tions, arrives; he is unqualified to handle any' kind or work l hat may be given him,” declares fife chamber report to the State executives. “He is unaccustomed to our climate, pur waya, the nttfoundings *T?d is 'sipeii dependent Upon others for his existence. ^Conditions throughout our in dustrial centers are alarming and the matter has now arrived at tly point where we are face t-* Imt* with a serums problta,” Hus last paragraph aad owe of the world's greatest | has made H passible far war* to be prevented. Hr being a man. one may aay, a little ahead of his lime, was able to ace where and how wars might be reduced and often prevented. This idea that Mr. Wilson tried to thrust forward for the whole world’s /good included “The Four Power Pact.” ^ “The Four Power Pact” was to be composed of American, Great Britiap, France, and Japan. These four countries were chosen as the leaders of the world because they are the strongest n#t*ons of today. They are capable of doing what is for their good, what benefits these nations will serve the best interests of the whole world. "The Four Power Pact” will include representa tives from all the nations of the earth, but the greater part of the power will be exercised by the four great countries, Engtand, America, France, and Japan. * This “Four Power Pact” is an international association or con ference for peace. European history for the past hundred years shows that wars have been diminished through international -^associations and peace conferences.
