The Waterbury Democrat., 1937-06-01

NCOnClnueQ 1TOIH fdSC II ousside of places wher eliquor is cold, was defeated. Tine bills pro- visions were reversal of proposals recently approved.
 House Majority Leader Noah Swayne, r., Darien, explained the bill came from the committee with out recommendations.
 Opposing the measure was Rep Helen Kitchel, r., Greenwich, lead- CT in the movement against out door advert lsement display signs Wno declared it would be like lead mg q thirsty dog to pool of wa Ter" yc allow liquor dispenserieS to advertise their brands with electric or other types of signs.
 Another Part Approved
 Approved by a vote of 129 to S8 was another bill providing that applicants for liquor permits be a resident of town for one year and furnish endorsement from three citizens. Previously the bill required endorsement by three tax payers holding property in excess of $1,000 each.
 The outdoor advertising bill of Mrs. Mitchell was passed by vote of 134 to 28 over mild objections.
 In substance it regulates the plac- ing of signs, raises license fees, provides billboards be set far back from the travelled portions of high ways and sets almost prohibitive fees in rural sections.
 Tn this fight" Mrs. Mitchell said, we are interested not only in pre- serving property but in safety on the highways"
 Opposing her was Rep. Daniel J. Mahaney d Waterbury who declared the state would lose portion of the $37,000 revenue it received from billboardS last year, and that pas sage would result in loss of jobs to men engaged in constructing and preparing the signs. \
 Mrs. Mitchell replied, There seems to be a shortage of labor, rather than an abundance, and the bill will not affect painters, car penters or others engaged in their present work"
 VetOes of Governor
 Hartford, Conn, June 1-(UP)- Gov. Cross today vetoed bills re- pealing the liability guest law and establishing a 54-hour work week in state institutions.
 Regarding the labor measure, the governor said in a message accom- panying the veto:
 T regret exceedingly the necessity for my action but I believe that the added experse of complying with the bill, on the part of our state institutions, is far beyond the capacity of their budgets.
 T have been informed that the additional wages and housing fa- cilities required under the terms of the bill would amount to several hundred thousands of dollars. Un- der the present circumstances, I have no choice in the matter and must withhold my approval"
 In his message on the guest law veto, the chief executive wrote:
 Tt is my opinion that the pres ent law is a proper and fair pro- lection to the owner or operator of a private motor vehicle and that at the same time it does not work undue hardships on his guests.
 "On the other hand I believe that the repeal of section 1928 of the general statutes revision of 1880 as proposed by this bill would re- suit in a situation counter to the public interest"
 The vetoes were the first of the session, which adjourns a week from Wednesday.

But then I warm to her courage
and to that of the rest of the young
people of the Negro group who are
not going to run from trouble and
difficulties, but will stay and fight
for the education that is theirs by
right of citizenship, by right of
taxation and the elimination of
their peoples need.
I can't tell the story in detail
further than to say it is a poignant
tale, bravely told, well written, re-
vealing in its every line the fine in
telligence of its young author and
the unusual deep insight she has
in the problems that grip both the
white and the colored people in the
solution of this vexed situation.

is not overcome by the indignities
she is experiencing, can write about
them so restrainedly, can see the
humOr in some of the situations
and yet when the impositions be-
come almost too heavy to be borne
can become in her own words mot
angry-but just plain mad"
Miss Crump is able to see not
only the prosecutions Of the white
university world, but sees very
clearly the vacillation and the cow
ardness of its Negro contingent.
Without barbed criticism she yet
makes it evident that much of the
prevailing attitudes are built upon
the lack of a firm and united OPP
position on the part of those who
suffer from them. Her story closes
with congratulatory message for
the 70 or more colored students
who have at last formed an asso-
citation, which may stand like "a
little dark island in great white
sea" and as the Council of Negro
Students of the University offer a
harbor for later students who may
enter and become Gibraltar of de-
tense against purposeful or
thoughtless aggressions.

HERE and
THERE
By w. N. Smith

I have just finished reading
Charlotte Crump's 'This Free
North" in the winter quarter of
the Literary Review, published by
the students of the Minnesota Uni
versity.
My first reaction is a deep SYM
pathy for this young woman and
other students of the university
who are making their first contacts
with the hurtful humiliating
things that may not be escaped by
colored students who attend our
state educational institution. You
and I, the older ones, have become
so well acquainted with it in our
longer contacts with life. We so
hope our young people might not
have to face it. Especially In this
highest cultural seat of learning in

The other is the sometimes venal
union labor leaders who discourage
Negro membership in unions and
sometimes bar them. The other
class is the Negro who blindly &C
cepts the situation which faces
him without audible protest and a
sensible use of his buying power
to ameliorate the situation. Of
this latter class we have no pa
thence.
For example some of the latter
class have been Mortified because
of this papers campaign to con-
vince Twin City breweries that
they are unfair to not include
Negro workers among their en-
ployed personnel.
They evidently have not the
foresight to see that it is not only
the brewers against whom we con-
tend but the entire rotten and I'M
fair system of local industry which
shuts its doors in the face of men
and women who would work, sim
ply because they are black.
Father Gilligan's words were in
deed appropriate and familiar.
Would there were more white men
and black men too, who had the
courage to tell the world the truth
about these important matters
which sooner or later will affect
vitality the maintenance of democ-
racy.

Familiar Words

On page one of this issue is a
news story from a st. Paul daily
paper which we reproduced for the
benefit of our readers. 1t tells of
the Indictment made by Father
Gilligan, Catholic priest, on the
treatment by Twin City industry of
Negro workers.
His words which describe the
fact that Negro workers are barred
from operation of street cars,
brewery wagons, work in the flour
mills, etc., have familiar ring to
US who have preached and edi-
torialized against the unfair dis
elimination in Twin City industry
for many years.
Men like Father Gilligan who
dare to tell the truth about such
things are worth their weight in
gold to the Northwest where there
seems to be a studied desire to
even discourage discussion of such
problems.
There are three classes of people
to blame for the conditions which
Father Gilligan told of in his fine
speech: The first of these is
the white employer who lodges the
responsibility of his American
citizenship by refusing to give one
class of his fellow citizens chance
to contribute their bit to industry.
