So the south can, when it will, take the leadership in international co- ‘operation. .

They have asked for police protection, better - housing, better sanitary and living con- e ons, better educational facilities, and & chance to develop into useful Ameri- | can citizens with every determination maintain their own social life and purity of the two racial stocks. **The reasonableness and intelligence negro leaders greatly encouraged the hite men who have come in contact With them.
