The article presents information on several socio-political developments from around the world. The labor movement of the United States has hitherto paid scant attention to the race which has most generously contributed to the working class of the country. Latterly the American Federation of Labor has regularly resolved at its conventions to take colored men into the unions, but it has done little between sessions to carry out the resolutions. A few unions, such as the molders and the mine-workers, have been conspicuously fair to the Negro; many have been inconspicuously unfair, and a few have frankly maintained the color bar. Advertising is the world's best bet for the attainment of international peace. One accepts advertising as the basis of modern journalism, not as a boon but as a necessary--and perhaps temporary--evil.
