domestic and personal service, 10
per cent in agriculture, and 0.5 per
cent in manufacturing.
The most favorable placemen
rate for Negroes was in agricul
ture where 37 per cent of the men
and 64 per cent of the women were
colored. The ratio of placements
was high also in construction and
manufaturing. In most of the other
industrial group, including domes
tic and personal service, tKe pro
portion of colored placements was
legs than their proportion of ap
plicants.
In the South where placements
were concentrated in the laboring
occupations, the proportion of Ne
groes placed was so tremendous as
to make placements of colored
workers more numerous than place
ments of whites, In the North, on
the other hand, where there was
need for skilled workers, the place
ment opportunities for Negroes
was limited. More colored women
were placed in the North than men
because of the large number of
openings in domestic and persona)
service, which acounted for nearly
four-fifths of applications and
placements among colored.
Placements of Colored Applicant
as Compared with Whites
The industrial distribution of
placements of Negroes varied from
whites. Of colored men placed, 31
per cent were in bid ding and con
struction, compared to 28 per cent
white men. 29 per cent as compar
ed to 42 per cent white men were
on relief projects. Only 6 per cent
of white men were placed in agri
culture compared to 20 per cent
colored men-—65 per cent of whom
were in Texas and California, and
more than 85 per cent only tem
porally. In domestic and personal
service, there were 7 per cent col
ored men compared to 5 per cent
white. Manufaturing, in which S
per cent white men were placed, in
cluded only 6 per cent of colored
male applicants.
More than 65 per cent of all col
ored women and only 56 per cent
of white women were placed in
domestic and personal service. Ex
actly 10 per cent of colored women
but less than 2 per cent of white
women were in agriculture. Place
ment of colored women in manu
facturing industries was 6 5 per
cent of the total compared to 15
per cent for white women, and was
almost exclusively in the food, rex
tile, and miscellaneous industries.
The processing of tobacco products
was one of the largest industries,
and the most likely ro absorb large
l umbers of Negroes.
It is evident then, that Negi-oes
were placed in less lucrative and
in:re temporary jobs. For the most
' u t-, those jobs which carried with
them '"me degree of permanency
were filled by wwhites.

PERPETUAL MOTION*
CLOCK STILL RUNS
A ‘perpetual motion clock which
has been keeping the correct time
since November. IHIfl. without b*
In* rewound. !• aeen Ik this city
says an Orebro (Sweden) ('aired
I'resa correspondent.
The clock, acrualeo by change*
In air pressure. I* so constructed
that If - tier* should t>< no air pi-ea
sure change for more than 12
months the clock still will keep on
going
The clock movement consists ot
seven metal hoses which are affect
ed by change* In atmospheric
pressure. The movement they re
ceive from such variations of pres
sure Is employed to thaw a weight
which turns the dock hands. Nevet
since the dock ttrsl started ticking
na.s rhe weight ever been near its
lowest position. The inventor de
clares that only the wearing out ot
rhe parts can stop the dock.
The amount of pow er I he dock
netnls to move is said to he one Idl
lionlh part of one horse power. Or
as the Inventor puts It. If a line
of such clocks were placed around
rhe earth at the equator, the
amount of power required for them!
all would be no more than Is needed
to operate an ordinary sewing mi |
chine.
