As a result of a well organized sys- tem of: racial discrimination, the Ne- tions of the country, are zoned off from the rest of the population. Harlem is the “black beit” of the city ‘and because the largest Negro urban population in the world is con- fined to a limited residential section, all the social ills of segregation are thrown upen their backs. Negroes pay the highest rents, live in the worst tenements, buy the dearest food, and get the least civic advantages of all the social groups. About 90 ner cent of the Negro fleeced in the most shameful manner by the landlords, white and Negro. In winter they get little heat in spite of the fact that they pay more for occupying their unsanitary quarters than workers in other sections of the city. Because race prejudice is one of the “blessings of American demo-} jeracy,” these people compelled to re-|_ main penned up like hogs in an over- crowded community year in and year out. If they attempt to move into sections of the city they are met with every form of hostility, even from white workers who are themselves ex- ploited. { White, Negro Workers.
