the NBA declared, pointing to the
exception in the Harmon VS.. Taylor

versed an opinion of the supreme
court of Louisiana which had up
held a New Orleans ordinance pro-
viding for the segregation Of the

The United States Supreme court
reversed the decision of the Illinois
Supreme court in the case of Hans

than on a basis of the legality of

Of frontage had signed, which was
stipulated in the restrictive con-
tract. The U. S. Supreme courts
ruling permitted Negroes to ac-
quire 583 parcels of property in a
desirable Chicago community.
Courts should refuse to enforce
restriction based on private agree
ment, NBA contends, just as they
have refused to enforce a restric.
tion based on legislation. The pres
ent U. S. Supreme court is more
likely to invalidate racial restric.
tive covenants than any previous
court, the article said.

WASHINGTON, May 1. (ANP) |
"A dual role has been played by
the q. S. Supreme Court here in
the housing segregation Of Negroes,
recent issue of the National Bar
associations journal charged, de-
claring that "the supreme court of
the United States has never square
" upheld the covenants, but the
court has given aid and comfort
to them"
While ruling against state and
municipal legislation to segregate
Negroes to certain parts of city,
the supreme court was charged
with aiding in the creation of segre-
gated residential areas by sanction
ing private restrictive covenants.
Attempted segregation legislation
was outlawed by the u. S. court in
1917 in the case of Buchanan VS..
Marley of Louisville, but it indi-
rectly approved racial restrictive
covenants in the case of Corrigan
VS.. Buckley here in 1926.
Local white property owners had
entered into restrictive covenant
against selling property to Negroes,
and one had later agreed to sell
land included in the covenant to a
Negro. Another party Of the re-
strictive contract brought suit to
enjoin the conveyance. The injunc-
ton was granted ard this judgment
was upheld by the court of appeals
of the District of Columbia. The
case was then appealed to the SUI
preme court, where the appeal was
dismissed "for want of jurisdic-
tion," which automatically blocked
the sale of the property to the Ne.
gro buyer.

states or their municipalities by
legislation to restrict certain parts

 To thousands of Filipinos hud- ding fearfuly by forbidden radios, and to the rest of the world, came these words on April g, 1942.
 ".. with heads bloody but un- bowed, they have yielded to su- perior force and numbers. The world will long remember the epic struggle that Filipino and Ameri- can forces put up in the jungle fastnesses and along the rugged coast of Bataan.
 For what sustained them . was force more than physical, It was the force or uncOnquerable faith.

 ON MOVEMENT
BY GEORGE PALMER

 The first contingent of soldiers pulled into the station yesterday Additional units arrived today and drove off in long columns of com- mercial buses.
 The troop trains were composed of passenger coaches and military equipment.
 Tribal Uprising
 There was no announcement as to the ultimate destination of the troops, but it was learned that at least two brigades had been deploy- ed near the Iran frontier within the last few days.
 Authorities appeared reluctant to discuss the maneuvers, but it is no secret that at this time of year when snows are thawing along the rugged frontier mountain areas officials are most alert for possible tribal uprisings.
 Likewise. a possible factor may be reports that Kurds have attack ed Iranian garrisons at Sardasht, Baneh and Saqqiz. These towns are directly east of the Iran-Iraq bor- der.
 Meanwhile, a prominent Kurdish spokesman said in an interview that What we need is to have a United Nations committee come out here and investigate the conditions, hear our. complaints and study Kurdish problems impartially.v

BIG FOUR TO HAVE SESSION THIS MOI I H
Byrnes Makes Plans for Meeting of Foreign
 Ministers in Paris

WASHINGTON, April 5. - The United States threw its diplomatic weight today behind double-bar- reled drive to speed peace for much of Europe and harmony for the Americas.
 - This, in brief, is the situation:
 Europe-barring unexpected de- yelopments, Secretary of State Byrnes will meet in Paris April 25 with Foreign Ministers Molotov of Russia, Beyin of Britain and Bi- dault of France in a critical ses- sicn which may determine when the projected, 2l-nation European peace conference can begin.
 What Is At Stake
 At stake in turn are final treat ies which will permit full restora- ton of sovereignty to the European countries once allied with Nazi Germany-Italy, Bulgaria, Ruman- ia, Hungary and Finland.
 Americas-This country, in effect. is extending the olive branch to Col Juan D Peron, Argentina s strong man and President elect. The gesture is a bid to end two years of intermittent pickering and restore hemisphere solidarity, back ed up by Pan American defense treaty.
 Byrnes disclosed these new devel- opments at a news conference late yesterday.
 Big Four Meeting
 He announced that Molotov and Beyin had accepted his suggestion that Big Four Foreign Ministers meet in Paris some two weeks hence in an effort to break the present deadlock over drafts of proposed peace treaties. Bidault is expected to follow suit
 Then Byrnes issued a statement which said the United States would welcome" Argentina's participation in the Pan American defense treaty if the Peron government would full fill it's hemisphere commitments, including it's pledge to eliminate Axis influences"

 Homegrown Millionaire,
 Observes important Dale

FAIRBANKS, Alaska, April g. Fifty years after sailing his own boat out of Seattle to seek for tune in Alaska, Capt. Austin E. Lathrop, now in his 81st year, be- lieves that opportunity is knocking louder in the Territory than it was when he came north
 Opportunity's knock is a sound that Cap Lathrop knows well. While others scrambled for gold, he devoted himself to providing pio- neers with transportation, enter tainment, housing and heat. He is now known as Alaskas only home grown millionaire.
 Although he is convinced that Alaska has more to offer now than when he saw it first in 1896, Cap tain Lathrop hesitates to recom- mend it to the young men of today. He believes most of them are not willing to "get their hands in and rough it."
 Lathrop observed today the 50th anniversary of his departure for the north by outlining the finish ing touches of his latest project, a S500,000 theater, which will open soon in Anchorage.
 The only large scale industrialist who makes his permanent home in Alaska, Lathrop owns or holds the controlling interest in Alaska's largest coal mine, two theaters in Fairbanks and one each in Cordova and Anchorage, apartment houses in Fairbanks and Cordova, Ameri- cas farthest north daily newspaper, the Fairbanks News Miner and the Fairbanks radio station, KFAR.
