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

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. June 4.—In memory
of our grandmother, Mrs. M.‘ F.
Morris, aged 63 years, who djed
suddenly at her home .Saturday
morning, Aug. 22, 1922. Funeral

War.
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

SAFETY-—or the freedom from loss, is the primary essential for the
successful accomplishment of any undertaking.
SERVICE—or the faithful and honorable performance of duty, is the
medium which promotes all achievements.
SATISFACTION comes only aa r result of having first secured Safety
and Service. This makes a great trio.

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

tions, arrives; he is unqualified to

how wars might be reduced and

Mr. Wilson tried to thrust forward

“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. It has al-
rgady. been shown~ how"the 5- 'TtitfdnaT

peace in the Pacific.
