CLOSER RELATIONSHIP
BETWEEN FACTORY AND
FARMER IS RESOLVED.
Convention Georgia Manufactur-
cYs Stress Need of Closer
Markets
CHECK NEGRO MIGRATION
Resolution Passed Unanimously
To Better Conditions For
Black Man in South

ATLANTA, May IA resolu-
ton call upon the people of Geor-
gia and the South generally, and
the manufacturers of the state, par
ticularly, to use their efforts IN
checking the migration Of negroes
to the North, was adopted by the
Georgia Manufacturers association
Thursday at the conclusion of its
convention.
A survey Of conditions existing
among the Southern negroes who
have migrated to the North, shows
conclusively that the negro in the
North lis a stranger in foreign
land" away from people who under
stand him best, and consequently
is in worse condition than he is in
the lowest negro shack of his ma
tive Southland,
The survey also shows that the
negro is not adapted to the r,gors OF
the Northern winter or to the con-
gested negro district of Northern
cities, where so many negroes have
been lured by promoters seeking
cheap labor. 1t was also pointed out
that negro migration is rapidly de-
pleting the labor supply of the South
and thus causes a serious economic
loss.
The resolution further recon-
mends that steps be taken to better
the living conditions of the negro
and to eliminate whatever injustice
is being done to him in any section
of the South. The resolution was
adopted to organize Southerners in
the movement to counteract the
activity Of labor contractors engaged
in Turing the negroes away from
their homes by promises of higher
wages and better living conditions.
Another feature of the concluding
sessions of the convention was the
reelection for the third time of w.
