SUMMONS MEDICINE C Race P'roblems in the Rural South. 'Census statistics proving that the rural South is growing blacker insteadl of whiter featured the address or IEdi tor Clarence Poe of the Progressive Farmer, dielivered at Charlottesville, Va., April 16. In the South Atlantle States in the last Census dlecadle, he saidi, white farmers increasedl only 12 per cent, negro farmers 23 per cent nearly twice as fast. InI the South Central States white farmers increas ed 12 per cent and the negroes 21 per cent-nearly twvice as fast. Ho also inIted( Out that negroes are gaining fastest ini farm ownershij,, while it. is the whites who are fastest becoming a tenant class, there beIng 188,000 in crease in number of white tenant farmers in the last decade, or 27 per cent, against only 118,000 increase in negro Aenant farmers, or 21 per cent. Dr. Poe declared that these results were due not to the superiority of the negro lbut to two unfair advan tages-: First, an unfair ecoiomic advan tage in that the negroes are able to buy land ,and make crops ,on a scale of 'living, clothing and housing that the resflectablo white farmer and his family doing the same character of work cannot moot.
