Race Discrimination

Mr.. Editor:

citizens here called on the Mayor of
this city to get him to prohibit a
show from wing a performance
here in one of the theatres, claiming
the show was a disgrace to the Neg

and prejudRe between the races, if
1t were allowed to appear. If such is
true, ! would like to know what caus-
ed the manager Of the ajestic thea
tire to be so great that he draws the
color line in his theatre, reserving
certain row for colored people known
as j i'm Crow row?' 1t is viola.

state Who is to blame, the manager
or the Negroes who go there and pay
the same price for seats as the white

their choice of seats in any loca I'll III of

go there and spend money where it is
not wanted and have their wives and
daughters thrown in places with some

some white people who have climbed
