pie, convenient parks for Negroes.
These parks are expected to be
located in the most convenient plac-
es which can be obtained for the
Negroes of Jackson, and so that
they can have the quickets and
best access there to. Playground
equipment is expected to be pur-
chased and placed on the 81 no O.
grounds in these parks.
In one of these parks, also, it is
hoped and expected that whe
material is available swimming
pool. likewise for the exclusive use
of Negroes, will be constructed. 1t
is also planned by the City Com
mission to build an auditorium for
the exclusive use of the Negroes
of the city of Jackson.
Already the City Commission has
increased the appropriation for pub
lie school education in the City of
Jackson over the previous approp-
ration by the SUI moi S100,OOO00,
and portion of this will be used
in the support of the schools for
Negroes in Jackson.
There have been filed with the
City Commission petitions for paw
ing few of the streets of the city
exclusively occupied by Negroes,
and in the order in which these pc
titions, properly signed on the form
provided by the City, are filed, the
streets will be paved
This Committee on Inter-Racial
Affairs has been assumed by the
City authorities that they will in
truth and in fact do this paving in
the order in which these petitions
are filed
We are assured further by the
City Commission that it is intense
ly interested in improving the SAN
itary conditions prevailing in the
portions of the City owner or oc-
cupied by Negroes, and this is ex-
pected to be accomplished by put
ting in sanitary sewers and running
warter where possible, so that sur
face privies may be dispensed with.
Furthermore, the City Commits
sion assures this committee that as
fast as streets are opened exclusive
ly for Negroes, the city will, at its
expense, gravel such streets, and
eventually if the property owners
desire it, and file petitions for the
paving thereof, such paving will be
done at the usual expense of the
adjoining property owners, which
has been customary in the past in
the City of Jackson.

RETAILERS
CALLED TO PROBE
Four Local Dealers lnclud-
ed In List Issued By
State Office

Four Wilmington sugar dealers
are included in the additional 81
North Carolina ones who have been
asked by the Office of Price Ad-
ministration to explain how coun-
%terfiet sugar coupons happened to
be used and transferred by them
in charges to be heard before Hear
ing Commissioner William B. Dun
can in Raleigh on Nov. Is and 26.
According to a list received yes
terday from the Raleigh OPA, the
local dealers are:
Paul D. 1rlpp, North Side Pro
duce center, 1905 North Fourth
street; M. R. HOODS, FOL Fifth
avenue; Zebulon V. Lewis, BIT Red
Gross street, and George T. Ezzell,
Of Ezzell Grocery and North Fourth
Fish Produce market, 1907 North
Fourth street.
The 81 new cases will bring to a
total of 70 the number of counter
felt sugar actions heard in the state
within the past 10 days. Twenty
three were heard in New Bern and
10 in Winston-Salem this week.
State OPA Director Theodore S.
Johnson said that the sugar sellers
are charged with transferring
counterfeit sugar cupons and with
accepting loose coupons in ex-
change for sugar. Recent OPA in
vestigations uncovered the coupons
in the OPA regional v%erification
center, through which all sugar
coupons pass after use, he added.
The dealers will appear before
Commissioner Duncan in order to
show cause why their sales Of
sugar should not be ordered sus-
pended for such periods of time
as the commissioner may deem fit
in order to conserve the scarce sup
plies Of sugar and force its being
sold in legal channels.

The crowd, termed the largest

Gen. Chang told his people they
would have to work hard to main
tain "our independence and liberty"
