TENNESSEE FAIR ASSOCIATION
REscINDs ITS FORMER
ACTION.
M'GAW At The MEETING
Local Manager and Secretary TOOK
Firm Stand Against the Admission
of Black Drivers-Hardin Thomat
Was There.
Special to The Herald:

Special to The Herald:
NASHVILLE, Tenn, April Sat a
meeting held here today the Tennes.
see Fair Association rescinded its for
mer action and ruled that negro driv
ers could no. appear upon its tracks
The concession in favor of the negro
was originally made at the instance
of one or two owners who employ COL
ored drivers, but met with such general
dissatisfaction that the former ruling
was reversed.
Among the horsemen who vigorous
ly opposed the admission of negro
drivers was John P. McGaw, secretary
of the Maury county Fair Association,
who made telling speech on the
subject in which he alphabetically
stated that colored drivers would be
barred from the Columbia Fair in
September. Hardin w. Thomas, of
Columbia, vice president of the Mau'
nv County Association, was also pres
ent. at the meeting, and also opposed
the admission of negro drivers.
The meeting was held in the Board
of Trade rooms and was well attended.
The action of the association re-
scinding it's order will meet with gen.
eral approval throughout the South
and will perhaps prevent a strike OF
white drivers, many of whom would
not have entered the circuit had col
ored drivers been tolerated. Mr.. Nc
Cav was highly complimented for his
firm stand, as he was largely respon-
sible for the change in ruling.
