UNIVERSITY COMMISSION OF NEGRO EDUCATION The second open letter to Southern college men, issued by the University Commission on the Southern Race Problem, urging them to unite their efforts with those of the “press, the pulpit, the bar, the officers of the law, and all other agencies laboring for the elimination of the monster evil of mob violence,” contains the following quotation well worthy our notice. ’'The inadequate provision for the education of the Negro is more than an injustice to him, it is an injury to the white man. The South cannot realize its destiny if one-third of its population is undeveloped and ineffi cient. For our common welfare we must strive to cure disease wherever we find it, strengthen whatever is weak, and develop all the undeveloped. The initial steps for increasing the efficiency and usefulness of the Ne gro race must necessarily be taken in the school room.

He is the weak est link in our civilization and our welfare is indissolubly bound up with his.” FORMER OMAHA PHYSICIAN MARRIED Omaha friends have received cards announcing the marriage of Dr. Rich ard A.
