Southern whites have made the dec
laration that they will not work In the
cotton fields and northerners are no
more willing, nor are they suited to the
work. The suggestion which has been
offered that immigrants from southern
Europe might find ready and constant
employment as agricultural workers in
the south, where climatic conditions are
those to which they are accustomed in
their native countries, is being eagerly
seized upon by cotton planters. Land
and mill owners are looking for white
workers to take the place of the blacks
and are offering inducements to Italians.
