Negroes voted Use Of
Main Public Library

LOUISVILLE, June 3. (ANP)
Through the work of its Negro
member, Atwood S. Wilson, the
Louisville Library board voted 5
to a infavor of opening the city's
main public library to Negroes
who still are segregated in the
branch libraries, however.
Wilson, who is principal Of Cen
trail high, said segregation was
abolished in the main library be-
cause it contains educational IA
cilities not available in Negro
branch libraries.
This action makes Louisville the
first southern city to abolish seq
regation in a local library unit.
The situation was first brought
out by a white University OF
Louisville student at a "town hall"
meeting of Mayor Farnsley.

Ruhr' S Steel Output
Sets Postwar Record i;
Coal Also Hits Peak
By the Associated Press

BERLIN, July 19-Ruhr steel pro
duction-Germany's major contri-
button to the European Recovery
Program-hit a new postwar record
in June.
The American Military Govern
ment announced this today in its
semimonthly report on occupation
affairs.
The report also disclosed that dis
mantling of German industrial
plants in the American occupation
zone for war reparations has virtual
ly ended. This means that the re-
naming industrial capacity will
work for Western Germanys peace
time recovery.
In the British American biZonal
area, the output of steel ingots dur
ing June jumped II per cent above
June, 1947, to 377,750 metric tons
"a metric ton equals 2,204 pounds
Total production in the second
quarter of this year was 1.064,0O0
tons, compared with $4,000 tons in
the same period of 1947, an increase
of more than S. per cent.
Production of rolled products dur
ing June increased by about 20 per
cent over the preceding month to
253,210 tons. Pig iron output was
336.060 tons compared with 3l3,5O0
in May.
Ruhr coal output also increased
in June. A new postwar record daily
output of 3O8,768 tons was set June
%.
However, the economic picture of
Bizonia was made spotty by cur
irency reform which dislocated busi-
ness, at least temporarily. Unem-
ployment increased and job OPEN
ings decreased.

worked up at this time than the
long pending Anti-Poll tax and
Anti-Lynching bills.
An Anti-Lynching bill is ready for
Senate action, but before it came
out of committee Southerners sue
ceeded in having it watered down
to point where even they are not
too concerned about it.
Poll Tax Opposed.
In the case of the poll tax, they
are against it because of the prece-
dentNthey fear it would establish for
Federal control of election ma
chinery. rather than its immediate
practical effect.
But proposals to abolish segrega-
ton against President Truman, and
the passage of one of those bills un-
doubtedly would make the Thur
mond-Wright ticket serious factor
in the election.
Summing up, 1t would seem that
President Truman and Senator
Barkley would have had much
better chance of closing the breach
in the Southern wing of the party
If the special session Of Congress
had not been called.
Undoubtedly, one Of the primary
motives behind the launching OF the
Thurmond- Wright States rights
ticket is to try to give the South a
stronger voice in the rebuilding OF
the Democratic Party of the future,
if the Republicans win this years
election. 1t is an effort to try to
show Northern liberals in the party
that the 127 electoral votes Of the
South cannot be counted automa-
tically for any Democratic Party.
Wallace Is Factor.
If, due to the Wallace split in lib
eral ranks north of the Mason
Dixon line, the Republicans should
capture more Democratic congress
sional seats in the North and West
this year, that also would help the
Southerners to regain the dominant
position they once held in Demo-
cratic councils, for they will elect
Democrats to Congress in the South,
of whatever they all unite
on the protest ticket of Gov. Thur
mond and Gov. Wright.
If the Thurmond-W Wright move
ment thrives during the next two
months there is possibility that,
when the States rights conference
meets again october /, its leaders
will try to have 1t consist of the
actual electors from the participant
ing States instead of self-appointed
delegates, as was the case Saturday.
This strategy Is foreseen in the
call which went out for the October
meeting. 1t invites each State
