things now stand, such documents
are beyond the reach of the aver
age library, let alone the average
person."
Terming the court fight against
restrictive covenants ga deep con-
flict between human and proper
ty rights" McCune adds, "The
cases involved are of such pro-
found Importance that they have
been aptly compared with the bred
Scott case concerning the legal
rights of slaves = = a case which
went tothe heart ofthe issue pre-
cepitating the Civil War"
Clark, now a Supreme court
justice, and his co-author brand
restrictive covenants as "injur-
ious to our order and productive
of growing antagonisms destruct-
i've of the integrity of our society,"

WASHINGTON CAMPO How
to make laws and legal documents
understandable to the man in the
street is a problem that has long
puzzled a growing number of
American lawyers and other inter-
ested persons. A recent successful
attempt to translate "legalese' in
to everyday language is an i'm
portant step in this direction and
one that directly affects all U.
S. Negroes.
The publication Of prejudice
and Property" a brief against
racial restrictive covenants, not
only gives the background of
those anti-Negro pacts, but pro-
vides a potent weapon in the
fight for their elimination.
The book, published by the Pub
lie Affairs press, is the statement
submitted to the u. S. Supreme
court by Tom C. Clark, then at
torney general, and Philip B. Per-
Imam, solicitor general. The brief
was originally filed by the Justice
department ANXIOUS CURIAE, as
'.friend ofthe court" in a case
involving restrictive covenants.
It answers the question, "Should
a fellow American be barred from
occupying this or that house be-
cause of the color of his skin or
the nature Of his religious be-
liefs?"
Introduction to the book was
written by Wesley McCune, execu-
tive assistant to the secretary of
agriculture. "The people should
be let in on the law. It's their
business" writes McCune. GAS
The Ohio daily-express. (Dayton, Ohio) 1946-1950, 1949-11-10

Urging the publication and
widespread distribution Of similar
readable documents in other fields
McCune points out that "There
r few who would argue today
that layman should mt beallowed
to read the Bible, yet it was not
so long ago that clergymen claim
ed exclusive authority over it's
contents and Interpretation. The
law will also gain from lay read
ing and understanding"
Copies of "Prejudice and Prop
erty' may be obtained from
Public Affairs press, 2153 Flor
da ave., Washington, D. c., at
$500 each.
