Sharecroppers
Turn Farm Into
Plantation

Chicago-Ten years ago, eight
Negro families sharecropping on
a ramshackle South Georgia farm
site knew nothing but poverty,
gang crops and back breaking
work from dawn to dust.
Today, these same eight fami-
lies have turned that same farm
site into prosperous, thriving
plantation. according to story
in September Ebony, and each
family now lives in a $1,000 home,
works only SO l-2 hours per week
with liberal salaries and rations,
New owner of the plantation
near Newton, Georgia, Chicago
ad-man Hill Blackett, taught his
Negro sharecroppers modern me-
thods of machinery farming de-
spite the protests of neighboring
white farmers, the Ebony story
says. Blackett also promoted de-
serving workers to important jobs
on an equal basis with white
sharechoppers. Today the planta-
ton re-christened Wellington"
produces $4,000 in cash returns
monthly.
What | did was not done in
charity" Blaekett says in Ebony.
THE place must show a profit,
and the better the help, white or
Negro, the more / produce in the
