IpATR0LMAN KILLS WHITE
DETECTIVE WHO KILLED
HIS BEAT PARTNER

PHOENIX, Ariz., Oct. %. (ANP)
"A first-degree murder charge was
placed against Patrolman Joe Davis
for the shooting of Detective Le-
once "Frenchy" Navarro, white,
who was recently exonerated for
the murder of David Lee (Star)
Johnson, Patrolman Davis one time
beat partner.
The cause of the trouble between
the two officers is said to date back
to Navarre's trial for the Staying Of
Johnson. During the trial Navarro
is said to have met Davis in the hall
of the court house and told him on
two occasions that he would "get
him for this" meaning he would get
Davis for testifying against him as
a state witness. Although Davis
testimony pointed strongly to Ma
varre's guilt, the white city detec-
tive was exonerated for killing the
Negro patrolman on May 2, after
two trials.
Davis reported Navarre's threats
against his life to the county attor-
ney and Police Chief Duane. Duane
is reported to have advised Davis
that he could do nothing officially
about the threats but if Navarro
were acquitted and stayed on the
force no one could blame him for
protecting himself if Frenchy at
tempted to do him harm.
Davis killed Navarro on the eve
ming of Oct. 4 in the police station
here.

uled to join with representatives of
some 80 independent organizations
which have identified themselves
as American United for World Or

those now being worked out for ul-

TOLERANCE TEXTBOOK FOR
U. ). YOUTH HAILED
by III EDUCATORS

NEW YORK, Oct. 23 (ANP)-|
Probing our Prejudices," said to
be the first textbook to present a
concrete program for coping with
the problem of incipient prejudices
among American youths, has been
hailed by Ill prominent educators
and interfaith leaders from 25
states as "a timely and realistic
blueprint for building mutual un-
derstanding among Americas re-
ligious and ethnic groups" said
DR.. William H. fitzpatrick, profess
sor emeritus of education at Col
umbia University and chairman of
the board of the bureau of inter-
cultural education.
Written by Prof. Hortennse
Powdermaker of Queens College,
New York, the book is being adopt
ed by schools throughout the ma
ton, fitzpatrick said, and added
that it is being used by inter-faith
groups working with adults.
Commenting upon both preju-
dice and the book itself, DR. Kill
patrick said:
Before prejudice can CONCEAL in
the youthful mind, it can be brought
out into the open and discussed for
what it is, right in the classroom.
A simultaneous process, a more
positive one, is to develop in our
school youth a respect not only for
the similarities but also for the
differences in the cultural contri-
buttons w h i c h each group has
brought to America.
Prof. Powdermaker's book is of
especial value, for it embraces both
these approaches and suggests ac-
tivities which can help nuuify pre-
judice. For the first time it brings
to students Of the high school lev
el an anthropological, and hence
scientific understanding that cul-
tural difference of people do not
mean that one people is better than
or inferior to another people"

Latin american
Women Ask Aid
To Obtain Vote

The support Of women's clubs In
securing suffrage for women In the
Latin American countries where
women are denied the vote is being
invited by delegates attending the
conference of the Inter-American
Commission Of Women, according to
Miss Mary Cannon, United States
delegate to the commission.
Guest speaker at a luncheon
meeting Of the Soroptimist Club
yesterday. Miss Cannon hurried
from the morning session of the
conference at the Pan-American
Union to the Willard Hotel, where
the luncheon was held, in time to
speak on the program. She told
how discussions during sessions re-
vealed that many delegates would
gladly welcome appeals from
women's organizations In the United
States being sent to the different
governments for consideration Of
constitutional amendments favor
ing women's suffrage.
Specially mentioned were the
delegates from Venezuela, Haiti and
Bolivia. The last-named delegate,
Miss Cannon said, voiced the hope
that women's groups would send
messages to the Provisional Presi-
dent of that country requesting that
Bolivian women be permitted to
vote in forthcoming elections to be
held in that country.
A humorous angle to the equal
rights question was related by Miss
Cannon as told to her by the Cuban
delegate. Although Cuban women
have equal suffrage with men, the
Cuban delegate said this equality
has not ironed out all difficulties
for women, citing as an example
the fact that women have been re-
fused positions as clerks In shoe
stores.
|. 1.-THE men say women clerks
would not have the patience to sell
shoes to other women" Miss Can
non laughingly quoted her informer
Consequently, men are still selling
shoes to women in Cuba"
Sharing honors with Miss Cannon
on the program was Julian Zier OF
the Pan-American Union staff, who
reviewed the history of the Pam
American Union and its accomplish
ments. Mr.. Zier invited club men,
bers to attend the Latin American
programs held every Sunday after
noon at the American Union.
Miss Zada Daniels was in charge
Of the program and introduced Mr..
Zier. Miss Cannon was introduced
by Rose Robson Cohen. Members
were urged to attend dedication
ceremonies of the Soroptimist Lii
brary, to be held at pm. Sunday

monies as representative of the
