To maintain the price of S1.75 per
bushel for grade ga" oota' oes it
cost the government S225, 100000.
Total production last year was 445,-
100000, or 123,0OO,OO0 bushels to
dispose of. The Brannan plan, sup
ported by Farmers Union and all I'm
ions had it been law, would have per-
mitted the sale of potatoes to the con-
sumers at$1.00 per bushel and still
returned to the farmer the support
price of $1.75. Big difference would
have been, everyone in the United
States could have bought and stored
in their own basement, their winter
supply Of spuds, instead Of destroy
ing them.

Heroic Effort To Rescue Ensign
Brown Behind Line Revealed

Ensign Brown waved his arm
to show he was alive but re-
mained in the plane even though
it was beginning to burn. Realiz-
ing that Brown could not extricate
himself from the plane and would
shortly be burned to death, Lieut..
Hudner made an intentional land
ing in the same field and ran to
help his injured shipmate, knowing
that his own chances of escape
were negligible.
Unable to open the canopy of
the burning plane, Lieut.. Hudner
returned to his own plane, which
he had landed so skillfully on the
rocky ground that his radio equip
ment was undamaged. He called
Commander Cevoli and told him
to have the rescue helicopter bring
fire extinguishers and an axe.
The helicopter had just taken off
of the University of Arizona, the
State College at Flagstaff, and
Tempe were among those request
ing copies of the report. Carson
had the printers run off $50 more
copies.
The national spotlight began to
swing this way when the Council
of State Governments, Chicago,
documented the report. This action
on the part of the State Govern
ment Council is a signal honor,
awarded only to works of out
standing merit.
Immediately requests by letter,
telephone, telegram began to pour
into Terry Carson'S office for cop
les of the report. Senator Robert
Taft of Ohio, Governor Thomas
Dewey of New York, Governor
Earl Warren of California, A F of
L President VIM. Green, all pro-
claimed Carson's report as out
standing and asked for copies.

Rev. Jerry w. Ford of the Tan

called in again last week by of
ficials of the Greenwood Memor-
ial Cemetery, for further confer
ence concerning the segregation
rumor of several months ago.
Rev. Ford said Mr.. Holly, chair
man of the board repeated his first
statement made in the previous
meeting, to discriminate against
races is not their policy, but ad-
mitted there is segregation there
only because of the poor financial
condition of Negroes and Chinese.
The cemetery committee re-af-
firmed the pledge that Negroes
will not be excluded from Green
wood and stated further that they
had made every effort to cater to

Negroes in low income brackets.
Rev. Ford said, in the discussion
oil the segregated rumor, the
chairman stated that the policy
of the cemetery was made exclus-
lively by the board and not by the
manager, and if such a statement
was ever made to the effect that
Negroes would eventually be bar
red from Greenwood it was un--
founded.
The chairman Of the board told
Rev. Ford that plans are under
way to open new plots, although
he said nothing about change in
policy. He said the Colored Veter-
ans were segregated because they
wanted to be and by wishes of the
veterans organizations to which
they belong.

Court Asked To
Abolish School
Segregation

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (NNPA) =
A Federal District Court was asked
here last Wednesday to order the
abolition of racial segregation in
the public schools of Tennessee.
The issue was raised in suit
filed by group of colored epar-
ents seeking the admission of
their children into white elemen-
tary and high schools in neighbor-
ing Anderson County.
They rconted that the county is
not providing colored children ed
ucational opportunities equal to
those afforded white children.
The suit asked the District
Court to declare whether it is un-
constitutional to deny equal edu-
cational opportunities to colored
persons and to enjoin Anderson
County school officials from pro-
hibiting colored pupils from at
tending white schools and riding
in buses with white students.

TOKYO (NNPA) = Heroic eff
forts to rescue Ensign Jesse Leroy
Brown, a colored aviator, behind
enemy lines in Korea, was re-
vealed by the Navy last Saturday.
The downed pilot, Ensign Brown,
could not be rescued and died be-
fore he could be extricated from
his plane. His next of kin, Mrs.
Daisy Pearl Brown, his wife, T-116
Robertson Place, Hattiesburg, Mis-
sissippi, has been notified.
Brown was the first colored Of
ficer in the Navy in any war to
lose his life. He was the first
colored naval aviator in the his
tory of the Navy. Another colored
aviator has just been graduated
from the Naval Training Station
at Pensacola, Florida.
One of the Leyte's pilots, Lieut..
Gunior grade) Thomas j. Hudner
of Fall River, Massachusetts,
risked his life in an effort to save
the life of Ensign Brown.
Lieut.. Hudner was taking part
in a close support mission in the
rugged country around the Chosin
Reservoir when he noticed that an
other pilot in the group for trail
ing white smoke and appeared to
have been hit. He reported the
fact to the strike leader, Lieut..
Commander Richard L. Coveli, of
East Greenwich, Rhode ISsland.
"No sooner had we gotten the
word on the smoke than we spot
ted the plane going down." said
Commander Coveli, adding:
1--WE saw him set the plane down
in a rough field about five miles
beyond our friendly lines. He must
have hit something in the field be-
cause his landing gear was up and
the engine flew off the plane.
"I could tell that the pilot was
still alive so I went off to call
for a rescue helicopter and left
Hudner and another pilot to de-
stroy the downed plane as soon as
the pilot was clear. While I was
gone I received word that Hudner
had gone down to help him out"
When Lieut.. Hudner saw the
damaged plane, he had Immediately
gone to circle the pilot as soon
as he was clear and protect him
from hundreds of Chinese troops
whose footprints could be seen in
the snow everywhere in the area.
