Separate but Equal Theory

70 the Editor of The star:
The notion that the constitutional and
moral right of colored people to the equal
protection of the laws can be achieved
through separate but equal" facilities Is
pure fiction. Fact is that racial segregation
invariably is accompanied by significant
discrimination; absolute equality seldom, II
ever, exists.
Separate and equal" treatment really
never seriously is intended under system
of segregation. The very purpose OF racial
segregation laws and regulations IS to I'M
pose a symbolic superior-inferior caste sys-
tenn based on race which is totally lndepend-
ent of rational proofs or disproots OF any
individuals capacities or abilities. the I'M
position of such caste status IS ltsel1 ois-
crinoinatorv. Southern courts quite candidly
recognize this when they award damages 10

Differs With Critic of Israel

To the Editor OF The Star:
1t makes one wonder if Mary Garvin. who
boasts of months of travel in the Near East.
was curious enough to visit also the new
country. Israel to complete her information
of the state of affairs in that part of the
world without bias and prejudice.
Judging by the ill-concealed temper of her
letter to The Star her information was pain
fully gathered from the other side Of the
fence. namely in Egypt, Trans-Jordan and
other Arab countries
She said that Israel has refused to accept
the compromise proposed by DR.. Bunche and
already accepted by the Egyptians. But she
was jumping the gun little because since
then an armistice has been signed.
Miss Garvin also said Israel has been equip
ped with so Messerschmidt planes from be-
hind the Iron Curtain. How does she so
easily give the exact number of planes sup
piled to Israel to repel the invading Arabs
from seven bordering countries? just Won
der what kind of curtain Miss Garvin had
before her eyes that she failed to see the
steady stream of planes guns and ammuni-
ton supplied by that gallant, oil-loving
Knight of the Arab cause. Albion.
Miss Garvin maintained that the United
States diplomatic mission was elevated to an
embassy. Answer: And why not? Israel was
recognized as an independent state.

brotherhood Week in Practice

10 the Editor Of The Star:
Driving through Georgetown in a down.
pour of rain on Washington's birthday, I
saw something which impressed me very
favorably.
A poor, old crippled Negro was pushing a
very dilapidated cart loaded with junk up
the hill toward Thirtythird street on M.
1t was really pitiful sight-but also saw
a fine. young white man in the uniform of
the United States Army step off loading
platform and give the Negro a hand with his
load. After I passed them, looked back
through the mirror and they were nearing
the top of the hill.
You cannot keep America down with a
spirit like that. MRS. C. E. P.

Your editorial on Brotherhood Week was
beautiful in language and heartening in
sentiment The road to brotherliness often
is rugged. Much easier are the ways of
self1shness in action and narroWness in
thought. Moreover primitive instincts tend
to strengthen these traits.
Recently, letter appeared in The Star,
declaring that in such places as theaters
and restaurants, white people desire to move
only among those of their own color: and
that Negroes. therefore, are not wanted!
That letter recalled to me these lines-by

Carla Marchetto, a spy for the

Mussolini and his Fascists were
about to give France its stab in

a firing squad by II Duce's Black

On the day she was to be shot,
her husband slipped her bottle
of cognac. When the Fascists
came to tell her that the death
sentence had been commuted I'd

LONDON, Feb. 21 (NANA) -
Scientific experiments aimed at
,lessening the housewives drudg-
cry are being carried out In Brit
ain. Fifty women students, most
ly married, from London Univer-
sity have volunteered to be "gui-

Object of the tests, Is to find
methods of work involving a mini
mum of effort, and the appliances
best adapted to the function they
have to fulfill. Three kitchen
living rooms have been specially
constructed in which to carry out
the experiments. While they
work, the women wear shoulder
apparatus which measures the
strain on heart and lungs. Re-
searchers already have discovered
that average kitchen shelves are
too high, and that carpet sweep
ers require too much energy too
operate.

conducting the experiments is DR..
