'Chicagoan
Submits Idea For
New 5O-Star Flag

L- l -OO
CHICAGO (ANP)- The new
problem of designing a flag for q
5O-state or 49-state union in case
Alaska and or Hawaii are sub
mitted as states to the union may
be solved if both Hawaii and Al
aska are admitted.
A very novel design for so
states has been submitted to news
papers by Chester Allen of Chi
cago. In his design the american
flag has the traditional 10 stripes,
seven red and six white plus so
white stars with the initials u. S.
A. in the center Of the blue field.
The stars are arranged in five
triangles of 10 stars each design
ed as as one big star. Five big
stars make the five points of the
star.

Wives, Watch Out
For This One!

1Ol l11O OACc
TRENTON, N. J.. (ANP) Does
the will of a deceased husband,
providing for the support of a
surviving spouse during her nat
ural life," cover costs of her
funeral?
This question drew a split deci-
sion from the State Supreme court
here last week, with the final
verdict of 4-3, ruling "no obliga-
ton under the terms ofthe hus-
bands will to pay. the wife's
funeral expenses"
The majority opinion held that
the provision "during her natural
life," could not be extended to
include Expenses which could not
possibly arise until after the
wife's DEATH"
At variance was the dissenting
voices, which held the husband in
tended to include expenses for
the wife's burial in his will.
Gone Strings from the thought
that the mere absence of specific
reference to burial from a pro-
vision for a wife's lifetime sup
in favor of federal aid to schools
and that opinion still stands.

BY Alice A. Dunnigan

WASHINGTON (ANP) An
other plank in the administrat-
ions platform fell through last
Tuesday whenthe House Commit
tee on Education and Labor vot-
ed 13-to-12 to table the Senate
passed $30O,oo0,OOO federal aid
to education bill.
The committee has been trying
for weeks to crack the deadlock
which had blocked House action
on the measure. The biggest con-
troversy stemmed from clashing
differences over making federal
aid available. to private and paro-
chial schools for so-called fringe
services, such as bus transporta-
ton, etc.
The question of whether the
federal government should sane
ton segregation by providing aid
to states which advocate separate
schools has also been under dis
cussion. This brought about a di-
vision of opinion on whether
school aid should be federally
controlled or controlled by states.
Cong. Powell offered an a.
mendment to the Thomas bill last
week which allowed the states to
spend federal funds as they de-
sired, but must guarantee that
each child has the same amount.
That amendment which aimed to
prohibit racial discrimination by
guaranteeing that all pupils shar-
ed alike, was adopted by the COM
mittee.
The NAACP was not whole
heartedly in accord with til e
Thomas bill or the Powell amend
ment. Leslie Perry, an administers
tive assistant for NAACP said
that, as much as they wanted fed.
eral aid they had hoped that
when such a bill was enacted il
would abolish segregation.
While the Senate-passed bill
might improve the educationa
situation dollarwise, it would up
set the very thing Negroes in thi'
country have been fighting for
that is to wipe-out the theory o:
separate but equal"
According to the resolution
adopted by the National Boar,
of Directors of the NAACP las
May, declared Perry, it is tn
"policy ofthe Association to &C
lively oppose any education bill
providing federal aid which doe
not prohibit segregation or dis
elimination against the Negro pu
pills. In the light of that, it wa
our job to get a non segregation
amendment in the bill. Had it no
been killed in the House com
mittee, such an amendment woul'
have been offered on the floor

House Committee Tubes
100000 Federal Aid to
Education Bill

/ He pointed out that the exis-
tence of segregation in public
| schools has been the excuse for
the policy Of segregation in every
area Of American life. '"It is there
fore a source of regret that spon-
sors of the federal aid to educa-
ton legislation did not see fit to
grapple with the problem Of seq
regation which results in the pre-
sent inequalities"
Perry claimed that the defeat
of this bill proves once again
that liberals cannot compromise
on so basic an issue as segregation
in the hope of getting through
"some kind Of legislation"
Moss Hendrix, legislative rep
resentative for the National Edu-
cation association, lays the blame
at the feet of Chairman John
Lesinski for blocking the federal
aid to education bill in this SEES
sion of Congress.
Mr.. Lesinski could have given
the children of this country 300
million dollars to improve their
eduaction said the NEA spokes-
man, asthe committee vote was a
12-to12 tie which had to be de-
cided by the chairman who op-
posed the bill.
The NEA favored the Thomas
bill, in view ofthe fact that it
gave federal sanction to segregat-
ed schools, but according to Ken
dirk, it had racial safeguards
through the Powell amendment.
The educational association
will now throw it's support behind
the Burke bill, which it claims as
it's second choice. This bill intro.
duced by Cong. Thomas H. Burke
3D., Ohio) earmarks some $500,
100000 exclusively for teacher
! salaries. This bill will be take1
! up in the committee on April II
In expressing his disappoint
| ment in the committees action re
| garding this measure, Elmer Hen
: derson, director of the American
S Council on Human Right said
"The defeat ofthe federal aid Il
f education bill was a severe bloy
to our hopes for improving tn
status Of education for Negr
4 children and all children in tn
South.
Ell "The bill, as amended by Cong
Powell, was acceptable and woul
have been very beneficial. w
shall contiue our fight for feders
aid to eduaction."

THE EMPLOYMENT SECURITY
COMMISSION OF NORTH CAROLINA
BOARD OF TRUSTEES TAKE NO

Raleigh, April 10. OF North
Carolina's 14.21S employers sub
ject to the Employment Security
Law, $3.50 qualified for reductions
in their contribution rates on pay
rolls from the standard rate of 2.7
percent to an estimated average
rate of 1.55 percent for the calen-
daryear 1850, thus reducing con-
tributions by an estimated $14,-
$4,000 for the year, or an average
of SLIPS for each of the $3.50
employers earning a reduction of
1850.
This average rate of 1.55 per-
cent, on which 1850 contributions,
or taxes, of employers subject to
the law is based, is an increase
from the 1949 rate of T.36 percent
of payrolls, due in part to the
benefits paid in 1949 to unem-
ployed workers. Hugh NJ. Raper,
director of the Bureau of Research
I and Statistics, who made the COM
| pllation announced by Chairman
Henry E. Kendall, shows that Tn
employment benefits in 1949
amounted to $19, 100000, as COM
pared with $6,S0O,O0O in 194S,
making these payments in 1949
higher than in any previous year.
In 1888, the first year of benefit
payments, and the heaviest until
last year, they amounted to S.
216,O 900, but the average weekly
| benefit amount then was about SIS,
as against slightly more than $14
a week last year.
The reductions in amounts paid
by n. c. employers is due to the
Employer Experience Rating Plan
embodied in the Employment Sc
curity Law, enacted in 1889 and
becoming effective in 1943, with
the amendments to this plan en-
acted by the 1949 General Assem-
bly,. The Commission and it's Ad-
v1sory Council proposed the chang
es enacted which revised the con-
tribution formula and resulted in
an additional saving of $780,
600 for this year against what
would have been paid had the law
not been changed.
The minimum payment for any
employer was reduced from 0.27I
percent of payrolls to 0.1O per-
cent. This year 532 employers
will pay this minimum rate and
256 will pay the next highest rate
of 0.20 percent. Of the 1854
rated accounts (employers), g.
404 will pay the full 2.7 percent
rate. as will 1929 other employ
ers who have been subject to the
act less than three years (new
firms) who are not yet eligible un-
der the law to be rated.
A proration of the $3,257,OOO
earned in interest by the States
fund balance while on deposit in
the U. S. Treasury, made to all
employer accounts with credit bal
ances, tended to reduce the rate
of such fnfTpfuyers.

DR.. WOodSon
Found Dead

WASHINGTON Father of Ne
gro History Week and founder of
the Association for the Studay of
Negro Life and History, DR.. Carter
G.. Woodson was found dead in
bed in his apartment office CAS-
sociated Publishers) building at
1888 Ninth ST., NV, on Monday
afternoon.
He was "A years old and un-
married.
He was found by Arnett G, Lind
sey about p. m, and pronounced
dead by Dr. Henry Callas, who was
called Immediately.
DR.. Callas said that DR.. Wood
son had suffered a heart attack.
He had had several attacks but was
not believed in a critical condition,
He had been up until IL the night
before talking with friends.
Considered one of the most in
fluential persons of his time, DR..
Woodson was to a great degree re-
sponsible for the contributions of
many of our great historians.
Such scholars as DR.. Rayford Lo-
gan of Howard University, Dr.
Lorenzo ]. Green of Lincoln Uni
versity DR.. Charles H. Wesley OF
Wi!barforce state College and A.
A. Taylor of Fisk University were
financed for their research study
in history by DR.. Woodson's AS
sociation.
Although he was an advocate of
books and publicity about and by
colored persons, he looked forward
to the day when there would be no
need for a Negro History Week
He said:
There is no real Negro history.
History is history, but the white
man left us out when he wrote his
tory books.
However, when our contribu-
tions are written in the books
along with other Americans, our
lob will be accomplished"
A man with much personal
charm, DR.. Woodson was in much
demand as a lecturer and took
great pleasure in filling such en-
gagements, especially those where
he could address school children
and teachers.

Quits N. 6. N.

HOLLYWOOD - Lena H o n e
sailed last week for a 10-month
tour of Europe, leaving behind the
glittering capital of filmdom. Miss
Horne is free for the first time in
seven years. Free from contract
ural agreement with the Metro
Goldwyn- Mayer Studio which vir-
tually has kept her in a singers
dog house.
The glamorous star was tired of
Hollywood. She was tired of films.
She wanted to do some acting.
No Hard Feelings
On breaking with the studio,
Miss Horne said: There were no
hard feelings and they were very
nice about it. They didn't have
any parts coming up for me. And
1 was getting tired of just singing
in all those musicals.
I'm grateful to M-G-M for CIV
ing me an audience the world
over. But as they have nothing for
me to do now, I'd like to take ad-
vantage of some offers"
The offers referred to included
a starring role in a Broadway play
and a series of movies in France
and South America.
She Missed ShOwboat
1t was also revealed that Miss
Horne was eager to do the lead
ing role-a talking part-in M-G-
Ms Showboat, But it looks as
though Judy Garland will get it,"
she said.
She wanted to do some straight
roles in the movies to let people
know that she could talk as well
as sing.
In an interview with a Holly
wood correspondent she said: I'D
like to do a murder mystery. I'd
like to be a laboratory technician
or even a night attendant in a
hotel, I don't care. I'd even be the
corpse, Just so 1 was pivotal part
of the plot.
Will Play Palladium
people are used to seeing me
in movies, so if I came on in a
straight part, something essential
to the story. 1 don't think it would
shock them"
Miss Horne's European engage
ment is scheduled to end with a
four-week stand at the London
Palladium.

Segregation Bill
Signed By Gov.
Thomas {. Dewey

ALBANY, N. Y.-Gov. Thomas
e. Dewey's civil rights program
was rounded out, last Friday, with
a law against segregation or dis
elimination in public housing and
limited dividend housing because
Of race, color, religion, national
origin or ancestry.
The new law, effective on July
l, applies to all publicly assisted
housing accommodations Ito be
constructed" but not to existing
projects, such as Stuyvesant Town
in New York City.
In approving the bill, a bi-par-
tisan measure, Governor Dewey
called it "a logical extension of
the States policy now in effect
in public housing and limited divi-
dend housing"
Race Designation Illegal
The measure, sponsored in the
Legislature by Sen. Arthur H.
Wicks, Republican Majority Lead
er, and Assemblyman Bernard
Austin, Brooklyn Democrat ex-
empts housing accommodation
operated by a religious or denom-
national organization and those
privately owned and not in any
way publicly assisted.
1t defines pu b icly assisted
housing as any which is tax ex-
empt in whole or in part; is con-
structed on land sold below cost
by the State or any political sub
division or their agencies; or is
constructed in whole or part on
property acquired through the
power of condemnation.
The law makes it specifically
unlawful for any person to cause
to be made any written or oral
inquiry concerning the race, color,
religion, nationality, origin or an
cestry of a person seeking to rent
or lease any public assisted hous-
ing accommodations"
Provides for Court Action
The law, which provides for
court action to restrain violations
and collect damages, both on the
part of the aggrieved persons and
any taxpayers. was praised by AL
gernon D. Black, chairman of the
! New York State Committee on Dis
elimination in Housing.
1t means, he said, that New
| York is now the first state in the
union to bar discrimination in both
public housing and private housing
which is aided in any manner by
the government Mr.. Black urged
continued efforts to outlaw "all
housing bias in New York State"
