JACKSON ADVOCATE
VA Official Call for Opinion
Continued from Page -

Continued from Page u
stration here last week, the Miss
issippi editor in denying that the
veterans hospital at Mound Bayou
was Jim Crow or discrimination
IN the ordinary meaning and i'm
ylicatios said:
People everywhere, regardless
of race, creed or color who are
in the least bit acquainted with
the vastly negro veterans cannot
help but appreciate the recent ap-
proval by President Truman, au-
thorizing the construction of a
20O-bed hospital to be located at
cost of some $2,5OO,0OO in the
states historic all-Negro town of
Mound Bayou.
"In this respect, we think the
conditions which will be in some
small degree ameliorated are too
immeriate and real to bring the
Presidents action within the rea-
son which prompted the protest
of the NAACP and the headlines
given the story in certain sections
of the Negro press.
''Still firm in the belief that the
removal of Jim Crow in all of
its imvlications is an immediate
challenge to American democracy,
we are unable to apply the word of
Jim Crow in its ordinary accepted
meaning and Implications to tn
action of the President in approx
ing the location of hospital for
Negro veterans in a duly charter
ed, all-Negro town.
Many years ago, the late, great
Theodore Roosevelt, President of
the United States and foremost a.
mong American politicians and
statesmen, pointed to the great
African Methodist Episcopal Chur-
oh, an all Negro church made
great and successfully administered
through storm and strife by Ne
groes as Justification of the Negro
es right to vote and enjoy Usually
all other rights and responsibilities
of American Citizenship.
Cup OF Mound Bayou a similar
experience is taking place and it
may well be that the action of
the President in locating the hos
pital at Mound Bayou will hasten,
rather than delay the removal of
Jim Crow from the American
scene"
Before leaving here last week,
editor Greene said that Col. Fl. e.
Brown Acting Director, Medical
Administration service, had told
him that everything was going to
be done to make the Mound Bayou
hospital oneo the finest in the
country and that contrary to what
had been said the location of the
hospital at Mound Bayou would
lead to the develovment of many
specialists among Negro medical
men who otherwise would have to
await. much longer time for such
opportunity.
Editor Greene said further that
Col. William H. Doderidge, VA
Administrative officer said that
plans are going forward for start
ing to work at Mound Bayou at
an early date.
Representative Adam Clayton
Powell of New York also told the
Mississippi editor before leaving
here last week that he was al
ready on record and that he still
felt that since a hospital had to
be built in Mississippi, the best
vlace for it was Mound Bayou.
