commander in chief, said:
An Associated Press report

Chinese general as saying that
the evacuation of Hollow was
caused by the failure of the cen

reinforcements to Hainan Island. :"

Mexico, town about fifty miles
from Mexico City. They are in
a house which has been let to
them by an American couple,
the Taylors, who live next door.
Here are some passages from
letters which Avery has written
to her friend Dorothy Moore
here in Chapel Hill:
"Well, the house is beautiful
and we all love it. It has three
bedrooms, three baths, a kitchen,
and a dining room which ties in
with a bedroom. To give you an
idea of how it looks, have
drawn this very crude picture.
The kitchen is very small as you
see, but it is nice and clean. 1t
has small refrigerator and a
very small gas stove with a tiny
sink and a table. The silver is
excellent"
"The Taylors have a parrot.
He is a most mischievous thing.
He only knows Spanish, and that
makes him funnier. He sings,
whistles, talks, and does funny
antics. He can't stand to be

against the school board on the
charge of discrimination against
Negroes in school facilities.
An investigation Of comparative
school facilities for the two races
was agreed upon withthe under

study, a suit would be brought
against the school board unless
satisfactory assurances were given
by the school board that it's dis

day, hamper the South of today in
the saving of it's soul.
The South is not willing much
longer to gain the world of white
supremacy and lost it's soul. An
other hour has struck and the
South is stirring with a new life.
This is written in the face Of one
ofthe most reactionary movements
the South has yet known; but even
this new reactionism lacks the old
time vigor and vitality that the
South is won't to display on mat
tiers of vital Importance. AS these
Supreme Court decisions nullify
more and more of these Black
Laws of the South the South finds
it easier and easier to make room
for it's Negro citizens.
1t is just this thing that makes
so dangerous the implications of
the regional school system being
worked out with the patent sane
ton of some of our Negro educa-
tors. We do not blame these Neg
no educators for the regional set
up; we only blame them for &C
cepting it without a protest. Once
these jim-crow regional schools
become imposed upon us, it means
that our emancipation will be so
much longer delayed.
The statement that these schools
have no real racial implication is
plainly an attempt to hodwick Ne
groes into an acceptance that pre-
supposes the scheme is bereft of
all attempts to further faist jim
crowism onthe struggling Negroes
If this new type of segregation is
foisted upon us, we should not
submit with our eyes closed to the
ugly fact that it is one more at
tempt to eternalize the second-rate
citizenship Of the Negroes. Our
trouble today is the productof the
Black Laws of yesterday. These
Black Laws are stumbling blocks
to better race relations.

See where a bank in Denver is

They figure their southpaw depos-
itors deserve just as much consid-
Grafton as the right handlers.
Time was when it was believed
that left-handed people had no
right to exist at all. If a youngster
showed signs of using his left
hand, his parents were supposed to
break him of the habit-to force
him to use his right.
But today most doctors will tell
you that changing child's natu-
raj left-handed tendency usually
causes more harm than good.
