succeeding shipments will follow
about 80 days apart.
Each shipment will be ac-
companied by an attendant skilled
in the treatment and care of baby

Transportation will cost about
$4,000 for each of the three
trips, or so cents per chick. The
total expense involved Will
amount to about 81 per chick de-
livered safely at Manila, includ-

'These chicks are among the

could be secured from American

In Spartanburg County, a score
of Negroes voted despite the party's
rules limiting the vote to white per-

A spokesman for Negro Demo-
Gratis said the refusal Of Richland

allow Negroes to vote would be the
basis of federal suit in an effort to
open the primary to members of

by 30-year-old William Jennings
