A NEGRO ENTERPRISE
CONTEMPLATED

The Young Mems Negro Business
League that was organized Sept. list,
1916, of which p F. Hill is presi.
dent is an organization destined to
be beneficial to the uplift of the
young Negroes of Nashville, and of
the state generally.
The organization has for its object
the encouraging and fostering of all
kinds of business enterprises among
the colored people.
The organization has caused to be
drafted a constitution and bylaws,
setting out fully the aims of the in
stitution which was adopted at the
regular meeting of the League last
Monday night.
The League has already gone on
record by instituting plans to have
capitalized $4,000 laundry plant, to
be operated by and for colored people
in the city of Nashville and other
surrounding towns in radius one
hundred miles of Nashville.
The president, when seen and
asked about the purposed enterprise
said that the League had the ar
rangements very near completed for
the operation Of a colored laundry
that would give employment to at
least 30 or 40 men and women, and
as there were about 10000 Negroes in
the city of Nashville, that from them
alone their patronage would be sui
ficient to support the enterprise, say
ing nothing of the out,of-town sup
port p. F, Hill has guaranteed
$4,000 of the money himself, and 9TH
er colored men sums of several hun
dreds of dollars.
The charter for opening the laun-
dry is being prepared by lawyer,
who will also draw up the certifi-
Gates for stock to be issued to indi-
viduals from IS shares to not exceed
one thousand dollars t. any one per-
son. All colored people, both men
and women, will be asked to take
stock in the enterprise throughout
the state.
The president of the League will
commence a canvass among the col
ored people of the state at very
early date for the purpose of placing
the stock on the market.
