NEGRO LIFE IN WEST

?- publlaJtiecLgiyes a good picture of
Negro life and race,relations in:
that state, remarks a comment
ofilhe Federal Council of Churches.
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

states of the union, mainly the
South. The male population ex-j
ceeds the female population 108

show that.67.1 per cent of'
the female persons 15 years of
age and over were married in
comparison with 54.2 per cent of:
'the males. ? I
??Health conditions, while iniprn
vjng, are ieriouf. Ther.e^were
>4,387 deaths in 1922, 12.1 per

The relations of the Negro to
-industry are?reported?signifi-l
cant. "These have demonstra-;

States in 1920 was 81.1.
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

ployed by their own group. The n

state to buy farms murder to r<

ring successive fCtepressipns of I
the coal industry. 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. The total en- ?
roilment in the elementary and v
high schools-shows an increase n
of mol*e than five thousand since j
1922^" AMarge number of adults Id
were enrolled in night schools s<
as the result of an effort to re- =
duce illiteracy, : = h
The report speaks in enthus- tj
iastic terms of race relations in b
the state. "They never * werd"ei
better th&n they are now and
have been during the past two g

St. John Day, Wednesdayevening,
June 24th, 1925. A~?ptendid

executed in the presence of a
large and responsive audience of

Short addresses by members of

We have time and space for
personal mention of ..only a few

Mrs. James spoke on the elements

length to the delight of all the :

on Freemasonry in gen-.'
