Samuel Shapiro of NeubUrger,

suit on behalf OF Mrs. Beltran.
THE facts III this case are not
unusual, Louis COlman, lid secre-
tary, said in announcing filing OF
the suit. "If they were, 1t would
not be so important. These cases of
bestial brutality against Negro
people in the enforcement of the
baIbar1c segregation laws OF our
Southern states are all too common.
Unfortunately. in most cases the
victims Tail to keep the necessary
data and obtain the names of es-

simply do not know their rights,
and consequently take no legal ac-
ton,
In Mrs. Eeltran's case the rail-
road is clearly responsible and
the evidence is unilppeachable. We
have them dead to rights and the
suit will be vigorously prosecuted.
We hope this action will help IN

KING COLE TO HELP FIGHT
JUVENILE DELINQUENCY

NEW YORK-The second big
name in the entertainment world
to volunteer to do something to
curb the growing menace of juv-
emile delinquency is that of Nat
(King) Cole, Frank Sinatra's
closest rival as king of the nat
ions bobby-sox brigade. King
Cole opened here recently at
Monte Proser's ultra swank Co.
pacabana Club on New York's
fashionable East Side.
Police and social agencies have
long recognized the fact that the
teen age group is more under the
Influence of their popular music
heroes than anyone else, includ-
ing in many cases, their parents.
The swoonsters listen to radio
and jukebox programs of their ia
vorite b~andleaders or singers and
go into Mysteries. Their minds
are mainly on Swing music and
as a result, the singers and music
ians who are the idols of the bob
by-sox crowd could, if they would.
be one of the principal forces for
control of a problem that has be-
come nationwide with the end of
the war.
Mainly because of his own you
tn and because of the struggle he
had to attain the national fame
ne now enjoys, King Cole has been
deeply interested in the youth of
today. He believes in the Young
sters and feels that a common mis-
take has been made in calling
them all bad and handling them
as ifthey we're some strange phen
omena outside the pale Of human
relationships.

quent as the famous Trio packed
'em in.
1t was at the Apollo Theatre
that King Cole hung up the mod
ern record of AT shows in one
week. Frank Shiffman said the
boys yer unable to leave the
theatre, their meals being served
to them in their dressing rooms
and they worked SO steadily and
hard that all they could do when
off stage was to fall on their cots

that he plans to make speeches,
play and sing for his followers,
and go all out to do his bit in keep
ing the kids in line and toward
instilling worthwhile ideas in
their heads.
While he is commercial enough
to know that the mixing Of social
science with swing and Jump mus
ic seldom produces a p~alatable
broth, Cole is willing to take his
chances so that the generation
that has made him the No. 1
star of the music industry won't
take the wrong road and travel it
so far that it can't come back.
Everywhere he has been, King
Cole has been breaking old and
