Better School Facilities For the Negro
Needed In the Country.


Needed In the Country.
Tuskegee, Ala. May 27.-Booker T.
Washington today submitted his an
nual report to the board oftrustees OF
Tuskegee institute. He says: There
are several influences that are con-
stantly exerting themselves against the
negro growing up on the soil at present.
One of these is lack of public school
facilities in the country districts and
frequent and unwise agitation of the
question about dividing school fund
in proportion to the tax paid by each
race. In the cities and larger towns this
negro parent finds a comfortable school
house and school in session eight or
nine months. Another thing which
send a larger number of the negroes
to cities than many realize is the surety
of getting police protection IN the city
when once charged with crime.
