OUTLAW BIAS
AT DELAWARE U.

WILMINGTON, Del.-In a 30
page opinion handed down Aug.
8 by Vice Chancellor Collins j.
Seitz of the Court of Chaneery,
the court upheld the NAACP
contention that the facilities
offered at Delaware State College,
a colored institution, "are grossly
inferior" to those at the Univer-
sity of Delaware. The court ruled
that colored students who are
citizens of Delaware must be
admitted to the university on the
same basis as white students.
All of the ten plaintiffs in the
case, except one, are or have been
students at Delaware College. The
NAACP pointed out on their be-
half that the accreditation. of
Delaware State had been with
drawn by the Middle States Asso-
citation Of Secondary Schools and
Colleges, on grounds of inferiority
in curricula, physical facilities
library, laboratories, domitories
and financial support. The college
had never been accredited by The
Association of American Univer
stiles. Judge Seitz personally in
spected the facilities Of the tw
| institutions before the decisiol
was handed down
Attorneys who argued the cas-
for the NAACP were Louis 1
Redding Of Wilmington and AS
sistant Special Counsel Jacl
Greenberg Of the national offic,
in New York. Attorney Genera
Albert James and Deputy Attor
ney-General William Bennethun
argued the case for the State O.
Delaware.

Wisconsin CHALLENGES
Mccarthy Tax Claim,
Milwaukee Paper Says
BY the Asseeieied Press

MILWAUKEE,, Aug. 25.-The
Milwaukee journal said yesterday
1t had learned the State Tax De-
partment "has challenged" the
claim OF Senator Mccarthy. Re-
publican, of Wisconsin, that he
owes no Wisconsin income taxes
for I949.
The Journal story said further
that auditors also are re-examin-
ing Senator McCarthy's reports
that he had no taxable income for
1947 or 194s."
Mccarthy has been ordered to
provide check stubs, monthly bank
statements and cancelled checks
for the past three years and to
supply detailed information on his
bank loans and stock market
transactions" the story said. The
information was obtained. it
added. from correspondence in the
assessors Office at Appleton.
Exemptions Claimed.
"McCarthy's 1949 tax return
showed no State tax due on his
income Of $17,120 because he
claimed exemptions of $15,172 paid
out Tor interest and $2,290 lost on
stock market transactions" the
Journal said.
1T was the fourh successive
year that Mccarthy paid no in
come tax after claiming deduc-
tions that exceeded his income.
His income for the four years
totaled $66,93S."
The Journal said that on july
IT the tax department asked the
Senator for additional informa-
tion on his 1949 tax return. On
August Is. it added, a deadline of
August % was set for Senator
MCCARTHY to answer seven specific
questions concerning the income.
The questions, according to the
Journal, concern information on
loans, interest payments, stock
purchases and other items.
Discussion Refused.
Tax department officials at
Madison and at Appleton (Senator
McCarthy's home town. would not
discuss the investigation, explain-
ing that it was still in progress, -
the Journal added. 1.-THE corre-
spondence file. however, showed
the course of the inquiry"
At Washington, Senator Nc
Carthy said, that story is a
typical journal falsehood."
