Attack Ban On
Mixed Marriages

LOS ANGELES. Cali-A le-
gal assault on the California
statute that forbids intciracial
marriages will be made here
by the Catholic Intcrraclal
Council, which has retained
counsel for the suit.
Under the present law eau
casians are forbidden to marry
Negroes, Chinese. japanese. Fill
ipinos, and members Of other
racial groups. Persons desiring
TO do so must now tourney to
Mexico or New Mexico, which
permit mixed marriages.
Their status, upon return 20
California Is doubtful, however.
and they may be open to legal
penalties
The attack by the Catholic
group will be on the grounds
that the law is an undue in
vasion Of the rights Of Catholics
TO participate in the full sacra-
mental life Of the religion Of
their choice, and perhaps makes
them exiles from the state Of
