I V V SOUTH EAGER TO GET ITS NEGROES DMOirnnn iinoTu v UHuarnum ion in , Southerners Are Even Willing to Pay Fare to Ne groes Who Are Will- , ing to Return. Memphis, Tenn., Sept. 1. (Cor respondence of The Associated Pres.) Plenty of farm and mill work, better wages than ever before paid ard improved living conditions await suthern negroes who have gone to the north and who now are said to be clamoring to return to the south, according to employers . here. Southern farmers and plantation owners want the negroes back. If there were some method of ' getting in touch with them it is declared the expense of their return to Dixie would be will ingly borne. This will hold especially true for the next few weeks, be- ; cause there is need of negroes who know how to take care of the cotton crop. But these employers say they do no; want northern-born and reared negroes. They would j refer to bring in foreign labor, they assert. "We would not hesitate to pay the expense of a hundred or more negroes from Chicago or other northern cities to our place, if we can get southern negroes, particu- . larly negroes who have gone from Mississippi, Arkansas 3nd Tennes- - see," said A. C. Lange, vice presi- ' dent and general manager of the Chicago Mill and Lumber Co., which r, owns more than 70,000 acres of tim ber and agricultural lands in ; northeastern Arkansas. "I think it ' is safe to say that every southern negro in the north would be brought back without expense to him if southern farmers and plantation '. owners knew where and how to get , in touch with the southern-born. We don't want, and will not have nothern negroes." The question of how to get in touch with negroes who have gone north was discussed at the Memphis meeting of the Alluvial Land asso ciation several days ago and the subje will be a special order of business at the next meeting. The association is an organization of . bankers, land owners, chambers of commerce, planters and lumbermen of the lower Mississippi valley formed to serve, in measure, the same purpose for the delta country, as the chamber of commerce serves the town or city. At the last meet ing it was said there was great need for more labor in the lower Mississ ippi valley and especially for negro labor acquainted with southern agricultural methods and with cot ton growing and handling.

Overheating Preventive. In cars that use thermo-syphon coolinar. the water svstem should al ways be kept completely filled. It the water level drops considerably, the circulation of the water will be reduced and may even be stopped altogether. With a pump system the pump continues to force the water through . the system, regardless ot how much or how little of the liquid there may be, but the circu lation of the 1 syphonic system is simolv a natural flow and this is interrupted in case a considerable portion of the outlet pipe is empty. resulting in overheating of the en. gine. Tire Chains. Tire chains are practically always used in wet weather and care is necessary to keep them from getting rusty. The chains should always be dried off before they are returned to the tool box after use. Especially should the clamps be looked after. A little cup of grease or vaseline will prevent rusting and eliminate the trouble of prying them open or using a hammer to close them: There should always be carried in the tool kit a crosspiece tool and one or two extra cross chains. With this tool broken cross chains may be removed or replaced very easily. In Mountain Running... The densitv of the air at 5.000 feet is about one-fifth less than that of air at sea level. An eneine with low comoression will not deliver full cower with that amount of decrease in density. Also the carbureter will need some adjustment before the car reaches the hieher altitudes. These facts should be borne in mind by the motorist who intends to drive through mountainous districts. Electrolytic. .
