URBAN LEAGUE STARTS
SURVEY IN CHICAGO
Chicago.—The Chicago League on
Urban Conditions among Negroes,
with offices at 3719 South State St.,
is making a preliminary survey of the
city with a view of securing co-oper
ation among the welfare organizations
touching Negro life and getting the
needed agencies established. Special
efforts will be made to aid the almost
30,000 Negroes recently migrating to
Chicago from the South to adjust
themselves to the acquirements of
modem city life. T. Arnold Hill has
been selected as acting executive sec
retary of the local organization until
the permanent secretary is secured.
Pr. Robert E. Park of the University
of Chicago is president of the organ
ization.
ANDERSON WINS NOMINATION
Chicago, March 15—In a five-cor
nered race, Louis B. Anderson, assist
ant corporation counsel, won the Re
publican nomination for alderman in
the Second ward, having over 2700
votes to spare. William Anderson,
William R. Cowan, Ferdinand L. Bar
nett and Louis Lettiere were the un
successful opponents.
The election will take place in April,
and as the Second ward is overwhelm
ingly Republican, Mr. Anderson seems
reasonably sure of election. He will
take the place of Oscar DePriest, who
has been indicted for alleged connec
tion with the graft ring. The position
pays $3,000 a year.
WHITE WRITER SCORES SOUTH
In a recent letter written to a news
paper against “The Birth of a Nation”
film, Frank A. Agnew closes his let
ter with the following words, which
score the South’s treatment of North
ern white men:
“It is an insult to every law-abiding
citizen of this great republic to have
the doings of the outlaw organization
known as the Ku Klux Klan exhibited
for their edification today. I have
wondered that some of the old Union
soldiers have not denounced such an
exhibition to Northern audiences. The
exhibit would not be made if it was
not for a purpose. What that purpose
is we can only guess at this time.
There are no more courteous people
than the people of the South in exist
