whites. On this he says:

The negro shows a tendency, not only to move northward, but
also to move about very freely within the South. In fact, the
region registering the largest net gain of negroes in 1910
from this interstate movement was the west south central
division (Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma and Texas) which
showed a gain from this source of 194,658. The middle Atlantic
division came second with a gain of 186,384, and the east
north central third with a gain of 119,649. On the other hand,
the south Atlantic States showed a loss of 392,827, and the
east south central States a loss of 200,876 from interstate
migration. While the negroes have shown this marked
inclination toward interstate movement, they nevertheless
exhibit this tendency in less degree than do the whites.[16]

The subjoined tables show the intersectional migration of the negro
population:
