MARRIAGE OF WHITES AND NE GROES IN THE NORTH. Tixon Sees Impending Menace to the Country in Pellution of Racial Life. Thomas Dixon, Jr., author of ‘The Clansman,” sends to The Columbia Record some clippings from New York papers giving various details of the Spriggs case and that of Mrs. Oliver in New York. The first is a negro who was recently convicted of ndding white women in slavery for immoral purposes. The second case was that of a white woman who was slapped in the face on a street car by negro. Since that time, as press dispatches have shown, Mrs. Oliver has been subjected to all sorts of in sulting and threatening letters writ ten by negro men and women. Mr. Dizon's letter shows: Editor The Record: Permit me to call your attention to the enclosed clippings from this week’s New York papers. The time has come for the South to boldly demand the repeal of all laws permitting the marriage of negroes to whites. Maine and Nebraska have placed themselves in line with South ern sentiment on this issue. The increasing corruption of our race in the North by the physical contact of more than a million ne groes, is something appalling. . The revelation of the Spriggs case is the foulest blot on the civilization of the century. The real details of this trial were never printed. The talt-whispered testimony of those trembling, broken girls caused the judge and jury again and again to burst into tears. This negro was the Keeper of four prison houses into which young white girls were kidnap ped and held for years in slavery for black beasts to violate. He will serve but eleven years for these hideous crimes and will then return to his white wife and his old life. Beyond a doubt this systen of secret white slavery to negro bestlailty is un iiversal in the great Northern cities. The increasing pollution of our rac ial life is early fixed where it belongs. The open and shameless practice of so cial equality with negroes by some of our great educational leaders, the pandering to negro votes, and the dis gusting propaganda of shallow theor ists are producing these fruits. 1A big buck negro is collector of in ternet revenue in New York. His em ployment of a white girl stenographer is a daily object lesson to his race. In Chicago, recently, a public recep tion was held for negroes only who had married white women. Seventy five of these mongrel families were present. The reflect action of negro insolence and crime in the North is quickly felt n the south. Letters tell the story and inflame the minds of Southern black men. Will you not use, your power in moulding the ‘opinion of the nation in this vital issue ? Lest you may think, as has been foolishly said by my enemies, that my work is only for personal gain, allow me to say that every dollar earned by the Southern Amusement company in presenting ‘‘The Clansman” in the South has been promptly reinvested in i ts Northern production. As a Southern writer and dramatist have given and am giving the best nergies of my life to preserve the purity of our rate and avoid a slowly approaching but inevitable conflict. ‘And I hope to have the continued upport of my people South of the Mo on and Dixon line, Sincerely, Thomas Dixon, Jr., To the Richest Man.
