Negroes Losing Ground In Census Figures
The San Francisco Argonaut cites a census bulletin showing higher death rates for blacks versus whites and a growing urban black population. It notes the United States has the largest black population outside Africa, with Washington as the greatest black city and several Southern cities where blacks outnumber whites. Professions dominated by African Americans include teachers, carpenters, clergy, and artists, with notable counts in education and crafts.
