Last Friday night the Chamber of Commerce gave a smoker for foreign born Omahans, who had just received their final citizenship papers. A fine thing! At this meeting Judge A. C. Troup urged the new citizens to learn English and not to flock to settlements of foreign-born. Another fine thing! in the same issue of the paper car rying mention of the smoker was an advertisement by a well known real estate company, advertising a sale of lots in an addition known as Yale Place- Still another laudable and praiseworthy thing! But here is where the joker comes in: ‘■RESTRICTIONS—Just enough to protect purchasers—that’s all. Lots to be sold to Caucasian race only. No buildings to be erected nearer than a building line to be established by own ers.” The thing that it is impossible tor me to see Is how they can open the doors wide to all but the most loyal citizens of the commonwealth in this addition. There must be no “excluded groups” in this country, state—and most cer tainly this city if it would attain the achievements that every true, earnest, sincere man or woman hopes that it will attain Any city which attempts to build a wall of exclusion around any class of its citizens writes its own obituary. Make no mistake about that. *.JNO. T.
