Mr.. Louis Scott Reveals
Conditions in Pasco, Wash.

Mr.. Louis e. Scott, President
and able representative of the Tri-
Cities N.A.A.C.P., was the featured
guest speaker at the meeting of
the local N A. A. G. P. at Grace
Phesbyteria Church, 22nd Ave. and
East Cherry st. Sunday afternoon
at 800 o'clock.
Mr.. Scott held his listeners quiet
Ily "spell-bound" by his dramatic
but factual report of the unhealthy
unsavory and disheartnening con-
ditions existing in and about
Pasco, Washington in matters of
racial segregation discrimina-
ton and general racial relation
ships. The verbal picture present
ed by the speaker was complete,
understandable nd apparently
without prejudice = but with a
quiet appeal throughout that
SOMETHING MUST BE DONE
ABOUT 1T.
The "Tri-Cities" area, which in
cludes Pasco, Richland and Ken
niwick, has quietly become one
of the most important section in
the Northwest, in matters of de-
velopment, National defense and
research. 1t is in the Columbia
basin development area where the
activities of many phases of pub
lie works are centered and as
usual. has attracted many people
of all classes, races and types.
The general result as far as
Negro Americans are concerned
has been anything but pleasing;
and, according to Mr.. Scott, some
certain improvements and human
relief are going to be necessary
in order to avoid an explosive
disaster.
The visitor left Seattle Sunday
night to return to his work in the
"Tri-cities" area and to continue
his efforts in relieving the above
mentioned situation.
The ENTERPRISE expects to
send a representative to the area
for more first-hand knowledge of
these conditions - which will be
passed on to our readers.

set the record straight on a story
we carried last Sunday.
Mrs. Schondau was surprised to
read that she recently had started
contributing to the National Geo.
graphic Magazine The article
should have read she is writing for
the OAR magazine.
The error arose from series of
misunderstanding. Until last sum-
mer the name of the official OAR
publication was National Historical
Magazine and a good many of its
readers still call it that. Somewhere
down the line geographic" and "his-
torical" became confused, with the
result that the versatile OAR secre-
tary was credited with writing for
the wrong publication.
