Migration Of Negroes from the

Of DR.. Bickham. He said Me-

creed or color.
DR.. Bickham said there were
some tension areas in Californis
such as the Bakersfield district,
but generally the race situa.
ton was on the upgrade with CO.

He was pleased that Negroes
everywhere are apparently taking
advantage Of new opportunities
