NAACP official said, Encompasses
"the goals for which your Associa-
ton has been striving all these
years. But it is new and hearten-
ing to know that q committee of
distinguished citizens appointed by
President Truman has brought
these things out into the open,
placed them in an official govern
ment document, and that the Presi-
dent did not finch and duck and
and dodge when his committee
made its report. He did not thank
them an file the report away"
In the struggle for human rights
Mr.. wilkins said, the Negro has
repeatedly been asked to be patient
and reasonable. But it is no longer
possible to be patient and reason
able for time is running out
"not Rpr the Negro alone. 1t is for
our nation that we must make haste
1t is for her that the time for ac-
ton is now"

"The first thing necessary to in
sure the sectional launching of
the southern plan," DR.. Tobias
said, "was to get Congress to pass
enabling legislation authorizing
the states to pool their funds for
the creation and maintenance of
regional universities. But for some
timely creation and maintenance of
regional universities. But for some
timely work done by the Wash
ington office of the NAACP with
the cooperation of the Howard
University law school and Senators
LANCER and Morse, the efforts of
the southern governors and educa-
tors to secure the desired legisla-
ton would have been successful"
Recalling the former co-educa-
ton at Berea College in Kentucky
and Maryville College in Tennessee
DR.. Tobias pointed out that at was
until safe laws were passed COM
polling separation of the races that
these institutions consented to con-
form. He cited other instances of
contemporary experince in mixed
education in southern institutions.
These precedents, together with
the attitude of young southern
students encouraged him to beIive
that co-education of the races NAV

assistant secretary said eve have
won new friends and enlisted new
allies. Important among these have
been young white people of the
South. They are not in the ma

to the Rankins, Russells, East
lands and Clare Hoffman and
others among our valuable enemies
butthey are there and their number
is growing. They have spoken out
against discrimination and segre-
cation in education and demploy-
ment. They have declared for free
exercise of the ballot. They have
dared to oppose segregation in the

WALTER WHITE
EVALUATES DEWEY

Commenting upon the Republi-
can Presidential nominee, the MA
ACP Secretary said: Thomas E.
Dewey has again been chosen by
the Republican Party as its candi-
date for President. Under his adj
ministration, New York's legisla-
ture created a State Committee
Against Discrimination, Familiarity
known as SCAD. Governor Dewey
urged passage of this law in 1916
after having evaded the issue in
1944-to get past the nominating
convention and the election. He did
the same thing this year on the
issue-the very vital issue of
of racial segregation in the New
York National Guard.

"A responsibility of enormous
weight has been placed upon Gov
ernor Dewey. 1t is well within the
range of possibility that thefate of
the entire world may be determ-
ined by what happens during the
next four years. 1t is profoundly
to be hoped that Mr.. Dewey, should
he be elected President, will grow
in craftsmanship, vision and cour-
age"

Thirty-Five Cent Debt
Nearly Cost Woman
Furniture

ATLANTA-Because she owed
35 cents on it, Mrs. Gertrude Harri-
sons furniture was threatened
with public sale. The woman prom
ised to raise the 35 cents by Satur-
day-plus $3.50 court costs. IF she
fails, Chief Marshall George of
Fulton County civil court said he
would pay the money himself.
The record showed that Mrs.
Harrison bought $76.73 worth of
furniture from furniture dealer
and paid $14.00 down for it. She
paid off the balance at $1.35 a
week-all but the last 35 cents.

! ALA. AUTO CENSUS
UP 1913 PER CENT
SINCE 1914

Observation-Disclosures, with
it's automobile population up 1913
per cent since 1914, ranks fifth
among the states in recovering
from the wartim low in car regis
trations, Powell Crosley, Jr., pion-
eer lightweight car manufacturer,
pointed out here to day. Only
Maine, Florida, New Mexico and
Mississippi have shown bigger
increases.
Such again in the Cotton State
is partly traceable to important
shifts of population in recent years
from the industrial east, midwest
and grain states to the south,
southwest and Pacific Coast"
Crosley said. Alabama appears
not only to have benefited by this
trend but also to have improved
the economy of its people"
Motor behicle ownership in this
state rose frome 336,375 in 1914 to
483,99O last year. Continued pro-
gress in this direction, Crosley said
is reflected in the growing demand
for small cars which provide eco
nomical transportation for many
families who have hitherto been
price out of the automobile market
Based on recent census figures,
there is one passenger car for
every 1856 persons in Alabama.

School Chest X-Rays
Are Due al Armstrong
And Jefferson Today

Washington's mass X-ray survey
continued in the public schools to-
day with units operating at Arm
strong High School and Jefferson
Junior High School.
In the past two days of opera
ton in the schools, a total of 1899
pupils have been examined.
The object of the Washington
x-ray survey is to check the entire
estimated 100000 adult population
of the District against tuberculosis
within six-month period which
began January IL. 1t is sponsored
by the District Health Department,
the United States Public Health
Service and the District Tubercu-
losis Association, at no cost to the
individual.
Only Is and Over.
DR.. A. Barklie Coulter, chief OF
the tuberculosis division of the
Health Department. pointed out
that only children IS years of age
and over are being checked in the
school survey. He explained that
children under Is rarely develop
tuberculosis to the point of becom-
ing carriers of the disease.
"It is the adults who pass the
tuberculosis germ along to their chill
dren," DR.. Coulter said 1.-THE aver
age is about one case in thousand
in which a child under Is years OF
age is able to communicate the
disease"
DR.. Coulter said the aim of the
survey is to bring under control and
eventually eliminate tuberculosis in
the District.
Ceremonies Delayed.s
'No such free mass public health
service ever before has been under
taken" he declared. "It represents
an unparalleled opportunity for the
individual to contribute to his own

NewControIs onAIiens
To Check Subversive
Activity Are Approved
BY the Associated Press


Attorney General Clark today
approved drastic new controls to
curb subversive activity by alien
visitors to the United States.
Designed to provide much closer
surveillance over the activities of
such visitors, the new regulations
are scheduled to become effective
about March Is.
After that time, the ordinary one
year visiting permit now in common
use will be abolished, and the visit
ing privilege limited to three to six
months.
Extensions may be obtained, but
they will require a showing that a
more extended stay is justified.
Aimed al Fifth Columnists.
Department officials said the new
rules are aimed solely at the alien
who gets In as a visitor and then
engages in subversive activity.
MIR. Clark acted under the Ad-
nlinistrative Procedures Act in ap-
proving the proposed changes. They
will be published some time next
week in the Federal Register, off,
cial Government organ, after which
period Of 20 days will be allowed
for receipt of written arguments
relative to the proposals"
Arguments may be submitted by
any interested person."
Among other things, the author
ity over extensions of stays 'and
the responsibility for overseeing Wis
itors in the United States now
held by the Philadelphia headquar-
ters Of the immigration and Nat
uralization Service, would be passed
by the new rules to the 16 dis
trict immigration Offices scattered
across the country.
They Must Keep Watch.
In plain words, the department
said, this means the district offices
will be expected to keep an eye on
the aliens in their districts and to
take action II there is evidence that
the visiting privilege is being abused.
The department said that in cases
where the visitor expects to remain
in one place, six-month admissions
will be available.
But II the visitor expects 'to
sojurn in more than one immigra-
ton district" he will get only a
ttree-month entry, requiring re-
newal.
In any case, all alien visitors will
be required to notify immigration
Commissioner Watson 3. Miller at
Philadelphia of current address
every three months. With this data,
the commissioner will keep the dis
trict Offices posted on what aliens
are in each district.
More Bond May Be Asked.
All alien visitors now must post
$500 bond upon entry to the coun-
try to assure among other things
that they have the cash to get back
home. Under the new regulations,
the department said, s'most visitors
whose stay is extended for over a
year will be required to post addi-
tional bond"
