B. Eleazer, educational director of the Commission on Interracial Co operation. Those records, according to the statement, show that the propor tion of Negroes in the south’s populat ion is smaller now than it was a 100 years ago, and that in the last 60 years it has declined from 36 percent in 18S0 to approximately 24 percent in 1940. The same trend, it is pointed out, has been evident in nearly every south ern state. From 1840 to 1880 three stat es, Louisiana, Mississippi and South Carolina, had more Negroes than whit es, but this is no longer true in any state. Louisiana crossed the line in 1900, South Carolina in 1930, and Miss issippi in 1940. The following table shows the changes that have taken place, state by state, since 1880: Percent Negro Population 1880 1900 1940 Alabama 47s5 45.2 34.8 Arkansas 26.3 28 24.8 Florida 47 43.7 27 Georgia 47 46.7 34.7 Kentucky 16.5 13.3 7.5 Louisian 51.5 47.1 36 Mississippi 57.5 58.5 49.5 North Carolina 37.9 33 28.2 South Carolina 60.7 58.3 43 Tennessee 26.2 23.8 17.3 Texas 24.7 20.4 14.5 Virginia 41.8 35.6 24.8 Along with these gen«ral changes there has been a notable break up also of local congestions of Negro popula tion. In 1880 there were 300 “Black Belt” counties in which Negroes out numbered wMtes; in 1930 there were only 189 such counties. There are two reasons, the statement says, why the white population has gained on the color ed. These are a higher Negro death rate and continued Negro migration to other parts of die country. During the 1920’s, for exampp, while the Negro population of the south showed a net increase of 364,000 Or 5 percent, that of other sections of the country increased by more than a mil’ lion, or 63 percent. The reason was that nearly a million Negroes went north during that decade. One interesdng result is the fact that the five cities now having the greatest Negro population are all north of the Mason'Dixon line—New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington. Another result is the in creasing importance of the Negro vote in national politics and in a number of states where a relatively small indep endent vote may shift the baPnce of po" wer from one party to the other. The 1940 census reports for the whole country a Negro population of a* bout l2,800,000 which is 9.7 percent of the total, or one in ten. In the first cen sus, taken in 1790, Negroes numbered 757,208, which was 19.3 percent of the total, or appriximately one in five. the drinks in double quick time— I’ll say.
