DIR. MOTIONS DEL1vERANcEs.

In view u the action Of our own
Supreme Court If Appeals OF Virginia
last Saturday. the following tele-
graphic extract from tn eutterances of
that remarkable race leader DR.. r. r.
Motion Of 'iusk. gee Institute Alabarca
is especially significant. Here is the
report:
New York. Nov. 21.-The South was
never more alive than it is today to
the Importance OF greater economic
justice, fairer educational opportuni-
ties and justice in the courts to the Ne
groes. DIR. Robert II. Motion, principal:
Of TUskegee Institute in Tuskegce
Ala; declared in an address before the
Gull Cub.
An important factor that has
hI ought about the existing attitude
he said, was the Wholesale emigration
of Negroes from the South to Northern
Industrial centers which he declared
had approximately 100000 persons
within the last year, according to DE
partment Of Labor statistics.
From Georgia. 100000 have gone
North. he said; from Virginia 100
600; Alabama 10000; Mississippi sc.
900; North Carolina $4,000. The Geor-
gia exodus had cost the State $27.
600 had left 46 900 farm-hOuses va
can't. had LEFT $4,000 plows idle and
had left 70.843 laborers' Jobs vacant
according to an estimate made by the
General Bankers Association, he de
clared.
The emigration. DR.. Motion asserted
was caused primarily by the superior
ity OF economic advantages in the
North as a result OF restrictions Oil
foreign immigration. A contributo-y
factor he added, was the destruction
in recent years of the cotton crop hy
boil weevils.
Leaders Of the movement to in,
prove the status Of the Negro in the
South. the Tuskegee official said were
"actuated not wholly by the economic
advantage of the Negroes presence as
laborer." but were moved by the die
ta:es Of human Justice"

THAT PECULIAR CONDITION.

We are reproducing letter received
from a white southerner, "to the
manor born" which will tend to puz-
lle our many friends in the North and
West who do not seem to be able ~
understand the apparent paradoxical
conditions existing in this South-rano
Of ours The Negro is abused and prais-
ed. He IL treated kindly and persecut-
eh. He is given his rights and denied
his rights. The cause Of this seeming
incons .stency is the existence i'm this
sectio" Of two classes of white people
and 'wo classes of black folks.
White people OF tho old slave.owning
type owned Negroes and knew the
value of one.
White people Of the other type be-.
longed to the patrollers, the over-seer
type. who never owned Negro anu
who never knew the value of one.
They belong to class, generally
known as the poor whites" They de-
spised Negroes. who worked, often do
ing that for which they longed on ac-
count of the wages, which such EN-
ployment would bring to them. Just in
proportion as the other class, who had
been brought up by black mammies
and who had been nursed by this fos
ter mother and played with the chill
dren of these good old souls. liked and
loved these Negroes, just in proper
ton. the other class of white folks
Eated them.
AS result the upper class of white
people are doing everything in their
power to improve the condition Of tue
brother in black" and whenever, the
children of their black friends gee III
to trouble, these white folks are first
and foremost to come to their relief.
This Inter-rac!al Movement is being
backed by white folks of this type. On
the other hand, we have colored folks,
who are off-springs Of this other class
OF colored folks and who know how to
behave themselves in striking contrast
to this new issue type7 of color.d
folks who never knew what self-re-
spect meant and who care less.
AS a result Of these conditions, we
find colored people Of respectability,
who have advanced far beyond their
fellows, by their own efforts and tho
cordial and enthusiastic support ef
this class of white folks. who wish
them well. They not only respect
themselves but the white folks and
the colored ones with whom they
come in contact. This Is the bond Of
union" between the races and makes g
race war as such in th.s section an i'm
possibility. There are colored people,
all over the Southland, who have n
their list Of friends, white folks male
and females for whom they would
fight, and for whom they would risk
their lives.
No outside influences can mar this
friendship for 1t is of kind that
Time cannot efface or eternity wash
away" But enough for this week. We
may deal further with this subject in
our next issue.

The financial plan of Secretary Of
the Treasury Andrew Mellon for
horizontal reduction of war taxes has
swept this country like wild-fire and
is the product of a master mind. From
standpoint Of non-partisanship, 1t
Is regarded as a wonder, while as q
political asset for the party in power,
IT'S value cannot be over-estimated. 1t
Is gratifying indeed to find that wo
have an official, who has the courage
of his convictions and who is determ-
ined to safeguard the interests of the
peoples regardless of the consequences
to either himself or his Party.
Pork barrel politics seems to have
lost its inning for the time being ard
as the people carefully study the plan
submitted, the feast OF reason and
flow Of the soul" seems to be the order
of the day. AS for the soldiers bonus
bill, with it's broad, confiscatory propo.
sltions, we have always doubted the
wisdom of it. To provide for soldiers
wounded or incapacitated in way
that will raise them above want is a
common-sense proposition and should
be encouraged and supported but 10
dole out money to the able bodied,
while they are able to work and are
working and then to support them
when they become sick would, tend to
bankrupt any government, not excep.
