While working on the car of a na tionally known businessman, he overheard two men talking- The owner of the car made this state ment. “Negroes can’t run any thing. They haven’t the brains or the intelligence.” Young Wright continued his inspection of the en gine of the car. Two days later he approached one of the men who had taken part in the conversation He stated that he hed overheard the conversation and that he thought he knew one Negro who had brains and intelligence enough to manage a station. The man looked up in surprise and said “I don’t think so; I don’t believe you can do it, but if you believe you can do, we will turn over the sta tion at 93 and Cedar to you as ah experiment.” Mr. Wright took him up on the offer. In a few years, two more stations were turned over to him, and at pr«s ent he is operating seven stations, and during thep ast winter, it was proposed that he take on an addi tional two stations.
