Florida Negroes
Demand Seating
On City Buses
Tallahassee, Fla. (U.R) Tal
lahassee Negroes demanded
"first come, first served" seat
ing on city buses today as a boy
cott begun by protesting Negro
university students slowly
spread throughout the city.
"We would like, of course, to
see integration on the buses, but
we're not pulling at that bone
now," said the Rev. C. K. Steele,
local president of the National
Association for Advancement of
Colored People.
"But we do want seating on a
first come first served basis and
not have our tired people stand
ing up looking at empty seats."
Negro leaders, representing
the Inter-Civil Council, put their
demands before City Manager
Arvah Hopkins, Mayor Fred
Winterle and C. L. Carter, man
ager of Cities Transit, Inc. The
city and bus officials, took the
matter under advisement and de
clined comment.
Carter claims the boycott, now
in its third day, has not affected
bus revenues or passenger loads,
even though Negroes compose
60 to 65 per cent of total riders.
He" said the usual number of
Negroes is riding, with the ex
ception of A. and M. university
students.
Not Organized
Steele admitted many Negroes
rode the buses yesterday and
some were waiting at the regu
lar bus stops today "but that is
because we weren't organized
and they didn't know where else
to go for transportation."
The boycott followed the ar
rest of two Negro students who
took seats beside a white woman,
only two left on the bus. The
girls said they asked for thei
money back when the driver
ordered them to stand, but the
driver called police and they
were charged with placing them
selves in a position to cause a
not.
