These expressions from the annual
report to the board of trustees, by
Robert Moton, principal of Tuske^ee
Institute, The state unquauneaiy j
commends:
"Thousands of them (negroes) have
left the South; many will never return.
The causes of the migration
have been in the main economic, but
there can be no doubt of the fact
that the negroes as a rule have taken
advantage of the present opportunity
to leave behind them poor
schools, inadequate police protection,
and exasperating farming conditions,
under which many of them have labored
for so many years. We at
Tuskegee Institute have sought to j
advise our people not to rush off to
the North without being absolutely
sure of the conditions under which
they were to work.
"At the same time we have tried i
to impress upon the Southern white'
people the necessity of a statesman-'
like attitude if the remaining portion '
of the negro population is to be'
made contented and serviceable. I
am pleased to state that there has
been a hearty response throughout
the South. In many quarters,white
farmers have been helping their
struggling tenants by furnishing
them seed, giving them free use of
? > -it?
lana, ana in oiner ways ujaitiug n.
easy for them to remain on the land
and care for their families."
When a Southern negro has sound
reasons for believing that a change
of residence to the North or West
will improve his condition,he should
make the change. He is under no
more obligation to remain in the
South than is a white man?and this
country has. in every State,hundreds
and thousands of white Southerners
or their descendants.
Were a negro to come to us, saying
that he had received an offer of
work in Pennsylvania, and asking
advice about accepting it, we would
advise him as we would a white man.
So would any decent and honest
white man advise him. We would
tell him that the immigrant, white
or black, had better be careful, had

better ascertain with thoroughness
what he is doing; that throughout
I the history of the world only ine
strong and capable have survived the
hardships of a new life, that modern
conditions, even in a civilized land,
have not made the abandonment of
one home for the building of another
a simple process, and that the enchantment
of distance is seldom real.
Where any man, of any color, after
adequate investigation, is convinced
that change of his residence will permanently
improve his condition, it is
his duty as well as his privilege, in
the absence of good reasons to the
contrary, to make the change.

not with the primary object

The white man who treats a negro '
unjustly is unjust to himself and to
his white neighbors. No people can ,
prosper without the recognition and 1

as the motive shall be no more than
