Violence Continues
In Mississippi

LOUISE, Miss, March 80. GA
NP)-The violence being directed
toward Negroes in Mississippi as
a result of the bitter agitation OF
the civil rights issue, which has
already been responsible for sev-
eral incidents in the past few days,
was evident in the brutal beating
of Clevel Cotton, 43-year-old Ne
gro farm tenant here last week;
the incident causing widespread
increase in the terror slowly
spreading over Negroes in the Mis-
sissippi Delta and throughout the
state.
According to reports, Cotton,
the 43-year-old Negro farm ten
ant was beaten by Jimmie Quinn
and Sums Seward, two white men
with whom he became involved
while attempting to pay his water
bill.
Cotton is reported as saying
that he went into the office to
pay his water bill and while there,
sought to obtain permission from
Quinn to stop a leak in the water
pipe in front of his home which
he agreed to fix himself without
cost to the city.
Quinn becoming enraged at this
suggestion refused to give him a
receipt for his water bill and when
he requested a receipt, came from
behind the counter and started

to have taken time out from the

Paw Scale for Teachers

DALLAS, March 80. (ANP)-
The new Texas teachers pay scale
equalizing salaries of colored and
white teachers, based on their ex-
perience and education, has been
released to the Ngro tachers of
the state.
Salaries under the new system
range from 1882 annually for a
teacher with no experience and
one year Of college to $3.50
yearly for a teacher with a Ph.D.
and IL years teaching experience.
The minimum college training
required to teach in an accredited
public school in Texas is two years
in 1947, three years in 1913, and
a bachelors degree in 1919. Teach
ers with three years training start
out at $198 a month, and those
with a bacheolr's degree, 1928, a
month.
Although this scale has been
adopted by the state some COM
|munities will exceed it and others
will go below. The latter will have
to establish their inability to pay
the minimum" through processes
outlined in the new law.
The Texas Council of Negro
organizations said that this law

aries to the lowest in Texas his

his stern religiosity.
1t is not mere curiosity to see how
the Compte is making out that
brings the Marquise to his chateau
outside Paris. 1t happens that he
not only is the father of the Mar
quise's daughter, but that he also
has had custody of her all these
years.
1t happens further and much to
the Marquise's delighted surprise
to find that the beautiful child is
betrothed to another of her illeg1t-
innate children. 1t therefore be-
comes her motherIy duty to see that
these two shall end up being brother
and sister to each other. After this
arrangement is concluded. the Mar
quise then goes on to chose which
of her old lovers shall have the
honor OF "cherishing" her.
The Compte, naturally, is the
winner or loser, depending upon how
others than the Marquise look at it.
Miss Gish turns The Marquise"
into one of the summers brighter
revels. To be sure, she is sur
prising one to find in any set OF
circumstances dreamed up by
Coward, but she seems not the least
surprised by it. On the contrary
she enjoys every minute OF 1.-THE
Wistful ones with her daughter, the
reckless ones with those who oppose
her too strongly and the dominant
ones in which she insists that she
has come to be cherished" and will
not take no for an answer.
Her natural delicacy is the per-
feet antidote for the indelicacy in
herent in the situation which
Coward provides in The Marquise."
The Olney company is back in its
Alice Sit -by-the-Fire" form in
demonstrating its zest for support
ing dainty heroines who have the
misfortune to be too attractive to
the other, baser sex.
John Williams is admirably and
stoutly stuffy in the role of the re-
formed. but still vulnerable, Compte:
Ralph Clanton in the true Coward
pagan as Estaban; Mary Macarthur
is beautifully harassed as the Mar
quise's long hidden daughter, and
Donald Murphy is eminently suit
able as the secretary who justly
wins her once the Marquise has any
thing to saw about it.
The 18th century costumes of
Robert Edmond Jones are q delight
to the eye and are set off effectively
by the handsome living room which

Miss Gish's Marquise is the

Eighty-four Estonians who have
been in custody since they sailed to
this country in small boats last sum-
mer are being set free, at least tenn
porarily.
That's the effect of an order yes

them eligible for parole and free
dom from custody.

Since they had left Europe by way
Of Sweden, negotiations were opened
with Swedish authorities some
weeks ago to permit their return
there. Justice Department officials
said these negotiations by the State
Department are still in progress.
The Attorney Generals action
followed a statement by President
Truman at his news conference
Thursday that he was doing his best
to prevent deportation Of the Eston-
ians. He added that he did not
know whether special legislation
would be required.
Representative Mccormack. DEM

ceedings, has announced that he
planned to introduce in Congress a
