Revolutionary
Move Is Seen
By White Paper
Tenant Labor
Shortage Alarms
Big Planters
BY WALTER MURDOCH

BIRMINGHAM, Ala.-(A N P)-
The migration of Negroes from the
farms of the southern states to
industrial centers and big cities has
begun to puzzle the white owners
of plantations and tenant farms.
The tenant who once worked 50
unhumanly for meager food and
shelter, is very much needed and
an editorial in The Alabama Jour
nal, white publication, revealed
these facts:
''Many thousand of Negroes
have in the past few years mi
grated northward so that vast
numbers of them are employed IN
industrial centers and New York
City has more Negroes in its popu-
lation than can he found in any
other community in the south.
Since this trend is shown in all of
the southern states it illustrates
geographically the changes that
have been taking place in the
south's population. especially in
the rural areas
BIG CHANGE
''Ihis migration has caused an
enormous change in the South's
economy especially on the farms
and is responsible for a labor
shortage on the farm that is 60
great as to have proved dis
couragement to ell men operating
their plantations with hired and
tenanted labor.
"Just now it is the fashion of
some Of the landowners to blame
such agencies as the FSA, which
was designed to help meet the new
conditions, with the loss of labor
on the farms. But the labor had
already gone.
There must be a readjustment
to the new condition, for there is
not the renotest hope that labor
ers who have left the south for
more lucrative industrial employ
ment will ever return to the farm.
The mass migration from farm to
city set in following the First
World War. There was no answer
to the war song, 'How you goin'
keep 'eln down on the farm, after
they've seen F'rance?' The present
war is moving other thousands and
they're not coming back to ploW
and hoe.
Census figures themselves show
that a revolution has taken place
and how great are the adjustments
that must be made. If ever any
body, at any time, needed help
from the central government to
meet a new unprecedented situa-
ton, the rural south needs it now.'
