Food is an important factor in all rat infestation. A shortatte of fooB limits the number of rats premises wiU sustain. Lack of available food also reduces rat breedingf. Foodstuffs should be stort'd in, r?*-* buildir- rooms or containers. Waste '^r RarbaKe should always be kept in tightly covered containers. “The eradication of the rat is both an individual and a com munity problem,” according: to United States Health Serviw, in an appeal for-a continual, aBgraa- sive crusade against the pest. “In the final analysis, however, the individual is responsible for the rats residing jn a communiCy."

Y. Februury 1*6, 193®— The 27th* Annual Meeting of the National Urban League was held on Wednesday, February 9th, 1938, at the Rui»- sell Sage Foundation, t«xingt.in Avenue and 22nd Street , New York City. Ll Hollingsworth Wood, Chairman of the Execu tive Board, presided. Ehigene Kinckle Jones, Execu tive Secretary, in his report of the work o/ the League during the year 1937, said in part as follows: ' part WM free, so now it is not possible fb rone part of the popu lation to have economic ^iros- perity and anoter part to be 3oomed by economic desuetude.” Mr. ^Jonas |urt3ier cited Hh« activitiea of the organiation in its work of ' vocational guidance for colored youth; a study of housing condition of Negroes i.i New York City; efforts to stimu late interest of Negroes in Civil Service examinations; the publi- catiof) . magaine, Opportc^ nity—JouranI of Negro Lif^, as well as service to tha sufferers in f the Ohio and Mississippi Valley flood disaster of the early spriiijy. Mr. Elmer Andersoit Carter, Elditor of Opportunity—'Journal | of Negro Life—and recent ap pointee by Governor Lehmao-^to the Unemployment Insurance Ap peal Board of the State Depart ment of Labor, addressed the Mr8,Roos8vell To Dedicate WPA Cemmuiiily Center “The Negro in America is un dergoing' a change. A profound change in his thinking, a ch.nnge in the method of his approach to a Solution of his problems. Fir i / ITHACA, N. Y.— A spacious new coirtirnufiity center, built by WPA workers in the heart of Ifihaca’s South Side, will be dedi cated Thursday, February 17; by Mrs. Franklin D* Roosevelt. Th6 center, wmpkted early this month, is the first to be con structed in this section of the city, which is thickly . populated by Negroes. It will fuovide space for supervised leisure-time ai'ti- vities for every resident of the community, old or young. Residents of the southern sec tion of the city have long felt the need for ^uch a' center. Pub-; lie benefactors had provided such facilities f^ other sections, bat it was not until the advent of the Works Progress Administration 19315 that any real progress was made toward providing an adequate South Side Center. The-house ia of simple Geor gian design,. It contains a full- sided gymnasium, a demonstra- non sectarian, non par^an, and for “the uplift of th© individual.” Hhe South Side Community Cen ter was established shortly after* in a rented house at 221 Soutn Plain Street. T5iere it operated until 1932, when it moved into a small home of its own at 30® South plain Street. This ibuildiiig was razed in 1936 to make way for the new horn?. Thirty organizations that cb- oiperated in making the new cen^"| ter a reality will be represented at the dedicatory exercises. These include social clubs, church groups, Ibdgrea* arid civic bi^arii- zations. - “La»t year, we thouj^it, that we were passihjr out of the eight year Repression, and that all that was needed was a little stimula tion in the durable goods’ indus tries— homebuil«f^g, perhaps— and away merrily we would be going along America’s vaunted prosperity road. If those who have the responsibility for Ame- rica% economic welfare eare W grou^^ a» foUowSi^ consider every observable ^vi- ^ience of our national economic trend, they should never ovar- look the social plight of the Ne gro as a never failing barometer of the nation’* economic condi-' tion. “When the Negro begins to lose employment in ever increas ing numbers, tlie first evidence of lowering business activity has appeared. When white men and women begin to secure jobs and to pass dividends to investors, the Negro, tm a group,receiving and appreciable surcease from their economic disablilities, it is no tim,e- for the nation to rejoice. Just ‘as in the days of Lincoln, it was not possible for one part of the population to remain in physical slavery while another SOUTHERN COLLEGE HEAD PLEADS FOR BETTER TREAT MENT or NEGROES element in the community. He based his appeal on pity or tok*- rance or the vanishing symiJih thies of the descendants of the abolitionists. |Bbt today the Ne gro is seekin* to better his condi tion by another method, which requires neither apology for hii> racial identity nor masked cha grin for his racial status. '■'•■““‘The Negro is bngift,njflg to see his problem in th» light of t^e problem of thi Demo/;racy arid to seek their solution not as an isolated group with 'diffi culties pecular to itself, but as a segment of a larger g:roup which essentiallly must solve the same probleina. These problems are those that arise out of poverty— the unequal distribution o f; wealth. They are problems of j wages and hours and economic opportunity— of housing and health and the use of leisure j lime. And in the TOpl sreas, » especiallly of the South, they are proiblems of and tenure anJ tenancy and farm ownership.
