WASHINGTON, Sept. 25.-
(ANP)-"I do not favor abolishing
segregation and allowing Negroes
to force themselves on white peo-
pie. l do not think the Republican

Hits Sentence Of Girls
For Wearing Play Suits

0
COLUMBUS, Ca, Sept. 25.-
(ANP)-Viewing the heavy SEN
tences imposed upon two Negro
girls, charged with wearing play
suits on county road, as "hasty,
unwarranted and of doubtful value
in the improvement of race rela-
tions," the Columbus Enquirer,
ultra-conservative white daily here,
scored the action Of City Court
Judge T. L. Bowden in lead edi-
torial.
'The action of City Court Judge
I. l.. Bowden," states the editorial,
in imposing upon two Negro girls
wearing swim or play suits on
county road, was in the opinion of
the Enquirer, rather hasty and we
regret that the jurist deemed it
necessary to order the offenders
sent to the state farm to serve IL
months"
Noting also the changing times
The editorial says: Judge Bow
den forgot for the moment, per-
haps, that we are living in an era
far removed from the one in which
he was young man. There was
time when the kind of clothes
girl now wears on the MAN. streets
would probably have been declared
indecent anywhere in the public's
view. Women noW," the editorial
continues, make their appearance
in slacks or in sun suits or in play
suits upon the city streets, with
passersby scarcely giving them
glance. Such a sight is not strange
totally different era, both in dress
and "in regards to our thoughts
concerning dress and wearing ap-
parel."
in which we live, the editorial re-
minded the judge that this is
or uncommon right here on our
main city streets in Columbus. The
fact the offenders in the present
case were Negro girls should not
make the slightest difference, in
our opinion. If the law accords
white girls the right to wear such
clothes, it certainly gives Negro
girls the same right"
The judge is asserted to have
said, as he passed sentence on the
girls, that there is no fine for in
decency in this case. The defend
ants told the court that they had
been in swimming in a nearby creek
and were on their way home when
the arrest was made on highway.

introduced by six members of the
upper house which would create a

Immediately following disclosure
of the senate committee action the
National Council for Permanent

co-chairmen, A. Philip Randolph
and the Rev. Allen Knight Chal-
mers, hailing the action as great
victory and a challenge to minority

The action said the national
council statement, constitutes the

should be the concern of govern
ment in the reconversion and post

--AmerlcanS must. come 10 grips
with the so-called Negro problem if
they are to clean house and prepare
America for ladership in world
peace plans, DR.. William M. Agar,
author and lecturer, and vice presi-
dent of Freedom House, told the
Catholic Interracial council at a
communion breakfast here in the
De Porros Interracial center. The
meeting, preceded by a dialogue

brated by the Rev. Charles Keenan,,

Discussing problems of an endur-
ing peace, DR.. Agar emphasized the
Importance Of intergroup under
standing and good will in America,
warning that talk about world
organization to preserve peace
would be in vain unless we, as
pople, learn to get along with each
other little better" and "cease to
pay more lip service to democracy"
1--WE have no right to say there
is Negro problem in the United
States," the speaker told the audi
ence of white and Negro Catholics.
"It is definitely a white problem.
Let us recognize that Jim crowism
in all it's forms, while it hurts the
Negro, also corrupts the majority
that imposes restrictions and dis
eliminates upon human beings who
are exactly the same as we are, ex-
cept for som eslight difference in
the color of their skins and the
shape of their features.
"For too long, we have been un-
willing to make our democracy all
inclusive because we thought it in
expedient. Now we are witnessing
eruptions in parts of the country
not only of more anti-Negroism but
more anti-Semitism and anti Cath
olicism than ever before in our his
tory.
MANY groups are trying to rem
edy this situation, but we will not
break down prejudice until the peo-
pie, as individuals, get out and
learn to know the people of other
groups, understand them, know
their thoughts, how they live, and
what is on their minds. If we are
going to be a great moral force in
the world, we have got to start at
home. We have got to st our house
in order before we can help to set
the world in order"
Describing the race question as
one of the great problems Ameri-
cans must appraise from a Chris
tian standpoint, Father keenan,,

to induce the Baltic and eastern

said. Russia believes that II the
Baltic countries realize they may
