NEBRASKA AND THE NEGRO
IRON THE BIRMINGHAM NEWS WE LEARN THAT

l the Gadsden, Ala, Chamber of Commerce has re-
ceved letter from the Nebraska State Chamber of Com
erce on the subject of the negroes who migrated to that
state The Nebraska organization according to the News
explains that the negroes Edo not fit into thefe of that
state and are not wanted there It asks whether Gads-
den and other Alabama communities will take back their
negro exinhabtants if industrial conditions South are
such that they find work and if not Twill the negroes
be allowed to come back when conditions improve" The
letter is said to carry earnest appeal ito help Nebraska
be rid Of these undesired Immigrants" u
Nebraska on this showing is kinder and consid-
crate than some other Northern communities which shared
and possibly welcomed the negro immigration during the
flush times when labor was scarce and repentng
at leisure In other districts as Birmingham cOntem-
poray recalls they Jail them or 'un them out of town.
undesrables Though the negroes affected may not real
lie it all at once, the Nebraska State Chamber of Com
merce is doing them kindness when it declares frankly
that they are not wanted in Nebraska because they do
not fit into the life there Its candor clears the amos-
phere and should complete the disiusOnment of those
negroes who led to suppose that the color line was
drawn only in the South "
The migratory negroes do not find their experience in
Nebraska and certain other Northern districts pleasant
