Investigation of the conditions from which Negro migrations rise throws new Hght on the vexing questions of land tenure and rural organization in the South. Descriptions of the movements reveal interesting and important social processes. A full treatment of the effect of the migration necessitates a review of all of the important problems of Negro life, for migration places them against a new and changing background. The greater part of this work is devoted to the first two topics, namely: (1) The description of land tenure and the organization of farm life in the Cotton Belt. (2) How this organization results in the movements of population. One chapter is devoted to city movements and one to the effects of migration. While the writer is aware that the space of one chapter is entirely inadequate for a full treatment of the latter topic, it is not considered that the data are yet available for an exhaustive treatment. The principal effects are merely out Hned so that students of special Negro problems may be warned that they will do well, after gathering their facts, to make allowance for population movement before drawing conclusions. Negro migration, like the movement of any people, may be associated with definite social and economic forces. It is desirable that the student retain, in proper perspective, this general significance of a population movement even while examining its interesting details. With this in view, the effort throughout the study has been to describe, in terms of current usage in social science, the movements of colored people in the United States, the conditions from which they arise, and the consequences which attend them.
