KILL INVESTIGATION COMMITTEE

New York - Expressing the opposition of the NAACP to the continuation of the Senate War Expenditures Investigating Committee, Walter White, ex- ecutive secretary, NAACP, to- day sent telegrams to thirty one United States Senators, urg- ing them to vote against the Senate resolution which would enable the committee to con tinue it's work. MT. White bases his attitude on the Mead CT report, recently released to the press, over much protest, which contains vicious and un- verified charges against Negro troops in Europe and against Jewish displaced persons in the American zone of occupation.
 Referring to this report in his telegrams, MT. White said ::
 Tn connection with the con- sideration of pending Senate Resolution 46 to extend the life of the War Investigating Com mittee we would like you to bear in mind the smearing of racial and religious minorities conducted by some members of the committee and its counsel during recent months and the fragrant denial of all due pro- cess to racial and Religious minorities attendant upon this smearing campaign"

MICHIGAN LIKES SPECIFICATIONS

Lansing, Mich.-The Michi- gan Supreme Court, the other day in the Snipes vs. McGee case, decided that restrictive covenants are in the nature of private" contracts. And there fore these contracts must be enforced under the existing laws. That, additionally, the case of the defendant in this instance was based upon plea for justice rather than argu- ment for the established law.
 Therefore the McGees, who bought a house in the city of Detroit for occupancy, are not entitled to live in the same be- cause it is available by Michi- gan law as the Court saw it, for whites only. ..-
 The local NAACP is now set ting the stage to carry this case to the US. Supreme Court in quest of a reversal of opinion.

SOCIAL AGENCIES REPORT SNUBBED
Washington

Washington - The Council of Social Agencies in this city had the courage to make an ex- haustive study of those anti social restrictions in the city of Washington that make for racial segregation and misun- derstanding. The sum total of their findings and recommenda- tion was that there is a sys- tematic pattern of gross denial and deprivation of the rights and privileges of Negro citi- zens and therefore there should be an immediate end to such ar bitrary segregation.
 But in the city of Washing ton there is what is known as a ''lily-white" Citizen s Associa- tions. These are groups of so- called civic minded residents in different areas that concern themselves with civic improve ment as it concerns white people. And they usually have the ears of the District Com missioners, who run "no-vote " Washington.
 The Councils Report had hardly been released before the Federation of Citizen IS Asso- citations issued a 5000 word condemnation.
 The major thesis of this pro- test was that no changes be made in the present system of segregation, until the majority of the public, (which is south ern), is ready to adopt such changes. And that restrictive be maintained so that neither occupancy or sale of property in white neighborhoods be avai able to Negroes.
