Urges Loyalty Board
To Add Negroes

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20. = A
spokesman for the National Asso-
citation for the Advancement of
Colored People today advised Har-
ry B. Mitchell, chairman of the
Civil Service commission, Of the
associations "regret and surprise"
that no qualified Negro lawyers
or scholars were included on the
20 man Loyalty board, recently es-
tablished by the Civil Service COM
mission with the approval of Presi-
dent Truman.
The NAACP strongly urged that
Negroes be Immediately added to
the board in order that their spec
ialized knowledge of problems
faced by Negroes in federal en-
ployment be utilized to assure
justice. In a prepared statement
it was pointed out that "preju-
diced officials could utilize false
charges of disloyality against
members of a minority to elimi-
nate them from government en-
ployment. This is particularly true
in the case of Negroes since some
officials regard as "subversive"
any insistence by a Negro that he
be given the same rights and OPP
portunities as other citizens"
1t was also pointed out that
because Of the rapidly growing
problems faced by Negroes seek

Racism Blocks Gotham
Housing Project

NEW YORK, Nov. 20. CAMP
Racial hatred and prejudice tri-
umphed here last week when
Mayor O'Dwyer yielded to the i'm
portuning of a Jackson Heights
group of whites that no low cost
housing be built in that vicinity.
Several months ago, it was de-
cided to erect a low cost housing
project near the Jackson Heights
settlement. Immediately, a cam
paign was organized to fight the
housing project, with members of
the jackson Heights settlement
appearing before the board of es-
innate with protests.
The racial angle was injected
when it was pointed out that Ne
gro veterans would be among those
accommodated in t he newly pro-
posed houses.
Without a vote, the board of es-
innate selected another site fur
Their away from the elite, declar-
ing that it furnished better trans
portation facilities and more ade-
quate schools.
/ Jackson Heights residents were
warned that the contemplated
housing project would bring Gun
desirable tenants" into that Sec
ton.

T%opnotchers Design
NAACP Card

NEW YORK, Nov. 20. = The
1947 NAACP Christmas card
which was designed and contrib
uted to the association by the art
director of one of the top adj
vertising agencies, will be avail
able for distribution in a few days
announced Walter White, NAACP
executive secretary. Mr.. White
also pointed out that the card will
not onl yserve as a very excellent
greeting but will also be used by
members and supporters of the
associations program as a special
fund raising project .
An especially appropriate photo
graph which was selected for the
NAACP card, pictures the chill
dren's choir Of a New York church
which is probably one of the most
truly American choirs in the ma
ton since it's members are Chi
nese, Negro, Puerto Rican and
children of Irish, German and
Italian descent.
The photo was made by a long
time friend of the association,
whose work is widely known in
nationally distributed ads and
popular magazines. The photog-
rapher, Allen Gould, searched the
city for some time before finding
the subject which he considered
just right for the NAACP. In dis
cussing the photo, Mr.. Gould said,

"Seen on the Stroll"

One of the top mite spots on
the Fifth street stroll is the LA
mingo at Fifth and Olive, where
the soft lights and good food and
refreshments are always at your
call. Under the management of
Ralph Mason, former All-State
end of Roosevelt high, the Fla
mingo has grown to be the most
popular mite spot of the midwest.
The owner "Pop" Mason, brother
of the manager, is one of the
widely known residents of Dayton
and a shrewd business man who
sees to it that Dayton's public is
given the very best in the way
of delicious foods and drinks.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20. CAN
P)-Sec'y. of Commerce Aneville
w. Hartman dispatched a letter
to congress last week proposing
that legislation be enacted voiding
Virginia laws which legalize seq
regation and discrimination at the
government owned Washington
National airport in nearby Vir-
ginia.
Citing the segregation of whites
and Negroes at the airport as be-
ing contrary to the policy of the
federal government to endorse ra-
cial segregation at this aerial gate
way to world travel" he asked
that congress make inapplicable to
the airport the segregation sec
ton of Virginia law which has
been incorporated into federal law.
The airport, situated just across
the Potomac river, lies in Vir-
ginia's 9Th district, and, in con-
formity with state laws, must pro-
vide separate facilities for Negro
patrons.
Hartman said that complaints
to the commerce department of
this segregation must go unhan-
died because the department and
the President are unable to act
without violating the state law.
The request was referred to the
house district committee for ac-
ton. However, Virginia congress
men indicated that they would op-
pose any changes in the applica-
ton of state laws to the airport.
