Jobs Wanted - Not
Train Rides

The plan of Senator LaFollette
Rep, Wis., to spend 1915, 100000
for unemployment relief which is
supported by the N.A.AC.P., does
not meet approval in some quarters
Mr.. Mark Sullivan, a some time of
fetal spokesman for President Hoo
yer, outlined recently as an alterna-
tive IAN appropriation of federal
funds for trains to take iobless col
ored people from New York, Detroit,
and Chicago, back to the South.
The N.A.A.C.P. terms this Sullivan
plan project for the deportation of
coored people into peonage.
The N.A.A.C.P. notes that most of
those who left the South during the
prosperity migration were whites and
asks why no plan is suggested to
send whites back South.
In addition, the association cor
rectly advises in its protest made to
Senate and House leaders that any
plan to force colored people of the
North to return to the South against
their will, will be resisted.
AS we see it, what, the unemployed
want is job, not a train ride. If
there are jobs and wages in the
South, black and white workers will
manage to get to them. no matter
how far away they may be. But a
man without a job is as well off in
New York as he is in Atlanta.
