HEARING ON
VET HOUSING

A request for a hearing by the
Common Council on Friday. May 10
on the rejection by the Council OF
the proposed Smile wyoming site
for veterans housing. has been
made to Council President George
Edwards by Housing Commissioner
Horace A. White.
In his letter White points out
that The city policy OF segregated
housing is bad enough but that
denying this site for Negro vet
erans is even worse
In his letter he stated
The City has gone on record for
no integrated housing az far as
the races are concerned. and yet
the one opportunity of getting the
much needed housing for the Ne
gro war veterans has been har-
pooned by the Common Council.
The action Of the Common Council
is indefensible and at the same
time shows an utter lack OF its
responsibility to all veterans"
