people have shown no inclination to
ride on these buses. AS matter OF
fact. it is those white people who
employ colored servants and who
wish to provide a means for them
TO get to their homes in time to
prepare their meals and to do house
work, that are really most interested
in having colored folks accommoda-
ted upon these means of transpor-
tation. The one man cars are pa
tronized for this reason. Labor is
scarce in this country and efficient
laborers scarcer.
Porters in stores, dish-washers in
hote's, stevedores, who handle the
freight are all on a rush to do white
folks work, but this individual ls
so short-sighted that in order to
satisfy an unreasonable prejudice,
he would bar them rom even the
oneman street cars or complain be-
cause they use them as means to set
to their work at the minimum cost
to themselves.
The writer wants to know if the
News Leader has any business inter-
est in the line. Every member of
the Richmond Chamber of Commerce
has such an interest, for the reason
that the prosperity of this commun-
ity and the increase in it's revenues
are due. to this very service, which
is being rendered by the laboring
clements, be they white or black.
To argue and work against a labor
ing man, white or colored, Is to
block the wheels of financial pro-
gress and to retard the advancement
of this community.
If loafers, be they white or black,
gray or grizzled, filled up these one
man street cars to the exclusion of
the laboring classes there would be
lust cause for complaint. AS a mat
tersof fact an efficient laborer pays

.. THE UNIFiED, SERVICE.

1t would be well for our friends IL
the North to note the embarrass-
ments, handicaps and downright
opposition faced and dealt with BY
the liberal, justice-loving elements
of the white people in this section
OF the country; Recently : united MI g
system of street cars and buses was
nut into operation with a view to
benefting, cheapening and serving
all of the people in this community.
Some of the chauffeurs on the buses
for one cause or another had the
habit of failing to see a colored pa
tron signalling a bus on street
corner, although where the transfer
system was il, vogue, they were
boxnd to afford service. - '-' ~ '' >
Some one wrote letter to the
Richmond. Va. News-Leader con-
corning these conditions and this
fearless publication stated that 1t
would, take cognizance of such IN
! FACTIONS of the law, although the
complainant could lay the matter
before the State. Corporation Com
mission, which body would see to- i'll
that the company furnished the SER
vice. tt z -
/ I the. answer logically would be that
the buses, operating under the law
are there for you, and if you do not
.ShoSselto take advantage OF the ser.
vice. it is your fault.

.'Sir-Since when have the bus

The buses have been running here
in Richmond now for some time, and
I have never seen Negro try to stop
one. or one riding in bus yet. Isn't
there anything in this city that the
white people can have for their own
use anymore? The one man cars are
50 much travelled by the Negroes
that more than half Of the car is
.o"ten taken up by them, and have
seen white people, both men and
women standing and still the mo-
torman will stop to take on colored
passengers, knowing they will have
70 push through to the back of the
car-and most of the time, they car
~ large bundles and are in their
soiled working clothes.
Now you say, if the bus driver
doesn't stop for them, report 1t 70

U on'y hope that if this is going

white people will give up the bus
