NEGRO WEARERs Of THE WHITE
RIBBON ATTEND CONVENTION
DELEGATES FROM TEXAS
Especial to Times-Recorder.)

ATLANTA, Ca, Nov. 1.-THE ne
gro question, which stirred up a bit
Of excitement in the white house last
week, has been injected into the ma
tional convention of the w. c. T. U.
in Atlanta, through the arrival of four
negro women, delegates from Texas,
who were totally unexpected.
The corps of girl ushers who have
the seating arrangements in charge
had made no arrangements for this
delegation, and asked that the four
brunette delegates go into the gallery
of the Baptist Tabernacle, where the
convention is meeting. They indig-
nantly refused to be segregated,
marched down the main aisle and
found seats between two delegations
from the North, who gave the black
sisters a cordial welcome.
Just across the aisle is the Ala
bama delegation and these ladies were
highly indignant at the invasion from
the black belt One of the Alabama
visitors left the hall, packed her grips
and returned to Alabama at once. 1t
is reported that the lady who heads the
corps of pages threatened to address
the body on the desirability of having
a Northern and Southern w. C. T. U.
in future, with two conventions, if the
color line is not drawn. None of this
story, by the way, got into the Atlanta
papers, the editors fighting shy of
stirring up trouble.
The color trouble has been augment
ed by the persistent efforts of several
local negro women, friends of the
Texas delegates, to enter the conven-
ton and sit beside their friends. 1t
was necessary to call the assistance
of several men before they could be
elected. A big rumpus in the W. C. T.
U. ranks is expected to follow
