A Boycott Is Half Effective
In Tallahassee Florida a Negro boycott of city bus service is judged about 50 percent effective after one day of operation. About 200 Negroes met Tuesday night and voted to boycott the buses until seating of white persons and Negroes or predominantly Negro lines is made on a first come first served basis. They seek Negro drivers on the mainly Negro lines and more courtesy from white drivers. The meeting followed the arrest of two Florida A and M University students who had taken seats in the front of a Cities Transit Co bus and refused to move to the rear.
