WHITE MAN SUES
FOR TEN THOUSAND;
CALLED A NEGRO

It's worth $4,000 for any white
man in Alabama to be colored. Yes,
sir, strange as it may seem, it's true
just the same. This fact was estab-
lished Friday when Alex De Fleron
of Mobile, Alabama, sued the R. l..
Polk Co., of Norfolk, Virginia, pub
fishers of the Mobile City directory,
for $4,000 because he was errone-
ously designated as "colored. :,
Whether or not the designation re-
suited from the compiler of the di-
rectory having seen De Fleron COM
ing out of the Negro section after the
shades of night had fallen or whether
he mistook one of those synthetic
"colonels" of the south, which is ab-
breviated just the same as the south
ern white folks abbreviate the word
colored, viz, "col." to mean colored
instead of colonel, is not known, but
De Fleron thinks the designation is
worth $4,000 to him and is asking
the courts to help him collect it.
