The Negro population in-! creased rapidly, nearly doubling in ten years, the total in 1920 ~ being 85,572 and estimated over: 90.000 .In 1934 third was born in Virginia, 6,512 in Norths Carolinathe remainder coming frorfi many states of the union, mainly the South.

In West Virginia the greatest number are employed in the coaP industry as miners and laborers-* in mine operations. Of_ about - 32,279 males ten years of age and over, gainfully employed in ~ 1920 about 17,923 were so employed. -Negro rhiners andmine _ vorkers are steadily increasing ai n number and proportion S^w nong the total workers in this in U] lustrv in this^tate. Tl>e report ei itated that more than 60 per cent h }f the male - Negroes sixteen d< years and over who are gain- ci fully employed are engflged in tl the coal mines of the state: It n is estimated that in 1923 more than 33,000 were so employed, In striking contrast; a lower per r; cehlUgU Of Negio female persona was employed than in any other tj state in the United States. This h is accounted for by the fact that about three-foarths of Negro fi males -sixteen years of age and fi over are in coal mining with the s< higher relative wages it offers, b Negro^pftysicians, deiltlsts ami h 1*1 wvnrr v. in^rpastny-jp num- si bers and are increasingly .em- a ployed by their own group.

F "o Home ownership by Negroes in West Virgmia is Considerably E less, than in other states, 17.7 ti per cent in 1920 -owning the v, homes tlfey occupied- This con- v, dition-is explained by the fact ri that the Negro population near- si lv doubled itself between 1900 ii and" 1920 and that more than g 70 pereenf-of-the^coloretL work^ v, ers weie employed by coal cor- u porations and live in houses K owned^by these corporations and h neither homes nor land could be h bought. . ^ The church connections of Ne- c; groes in the state seem low, re. ported mmebership being less n than one-fourth of, the ,total Ne^ u gro population, in comparison la with about 50 percent for the United States. The Baptist en- vs rollment is about two-thirds of i> the total number reported, the tl Methodist -Bgiseopal-and the^Aia. .g rican Methodist Episcopal have c but a small fraction , of the re- t] maining enrollment. Negro ed- r< u cation is apparently'above "the" Ti standard?of adjoining?states-it that have separate schools as in- f: dicated by the grade of teachers lj and salaries.: There ? is great _ need of improvement building f and equipment.
