Propose Law
To End School
Segregation

A meeting has been called for
this coming Sunday, July 80, at
IS pm, at the Community House,
1885 East Jefferson to lay plans
for campaign to publicize the
proposed law to de-segregate the
public schools in Arizona.
For the first time in Arizona,
the Negro people have within their
grasp chance to end the segrega-
ton that exists in the public
schools of the state. An initiative
measure to de-segregate Arizona's
schools has been filed by the Ari-
zona Legislative League with the
Secretary of State, to be placed on
the ballot in November's election.
Although segregation of schools
is only one of the wrongs against
the Negro people which must be
righted before Negroes take their
rightful places as full citizens of
this country, 1T IS AN IMPOR-
TANT ONE. When colored and
white children go together to the
same schools and learn to under
stand one another, it is the first
step toward breaking down the
myth of racial differences. The
proposed law will also integrate
Negro teachers into the school sys-
tenn since it calls for hiring of
teachers according to qualifica-
tions, regardless of race, color or
creed.
If we are successful in stopping
segregation in schools, the way
will be paved for other improve
ments such as state Fair Employ
ment Practices Law.
Placing the measure on the bal
lot, however, is only the first
step toward making it law of
the state. Between now and No
vember it will be necessary to
carry on an intensive campaign to
see that every voter understands
the merits of the issue. It is the
purpose of the meeting on July 80
to outline this campaign.

When Is A Pig
Not A Hoq?

Doris Duke, one OF the WealtnleSt
women in the world, petitioned the
town of Hilsborough, NJ, to
change it's sanitary code so she
could construct a $4,000 model
farm to raise $4,000 pigs on her
property there.
If the petition were granted,
Miss Duke promised, individual
atomizers would spray her pigs with
perfumed deodorizer, so they would
be "clean, cool, and flyless."
Unimpressed, one Hillsborough
farmer said: eff she grows hogs
that smell good, they won't be hogs
they will be some other kind of

100000 Jobs
Caused By War

WASHINGTON, July 26 = The
big news on the Washington home
front today is that the war in
Korea will make upward. of 10,-
900 new government jobs.
This will cost the tax payers
about $354,5O0,O0O a year in sal
aries. Your guess is as good as
anybody's on. how much new Of
flee equipment and red tape will
have to be laid for the newcomers.
The 100000 figure is tentative,
the chances are better than good
that the number of new public
servants will be greaer than that
before the hot-cold war is over.

HoroIdls Pants
Get Around

DETROIT - Harold Butler, a
pawn shop clerk, was surprised
when Jesse Willis, "a, tried to
dispose of a pair of trousers.
So was Willis. The trousers be-
longed to Butler.
Willis dashed out of the shop,
pants in hand. Instead of pursu-
ing, Butler was cagey. He watched
Willis direction of flight, then
called his brother, Ernest, at an
other shop.
The tip-off worked. When Willis
tried it at Ernest's shop, he was
seized.
In court Willis explained. He
said he took the pants from a
cleaners delivery truck. He was
held for sentensing.

Four of them were arrested as

men, boys and some women which
became unruly after three colored
youths went swimming, along with
seven white boys, in the first af-
ternoon shift.
They were placed under arrest
in the bathhouse after they led
group of some twenty-five or
thirty youths into the locker room
with the announced intention of
"going swimming"
The colored youths were es-
corted to the park by John Win
ston Wheeler, an officer in the
st. Louis branch of the National
Association of Colored People.
After the colored youths fin
ished swimming and left the park,
to the taunts of some white per-
sons, a group of about fifty boys
saw colored woman, with a small
boy, at the southeast section of the
park and began chasing them.
A few minutes later another
segment of the crowd advanced
upon two colored men who were
in an automobile that had stop
ped for traffic inside the park.
The arrival of a motorcycle Off
Ger prevented a disturbance.
AS two colored men arrived at
the park to go swimming, large
number of persons followed them
to the bathhouse and entered at
the same time. Several police Of
ficers also went in.
The decision of the white youths
to go into the pool was reached
hurriedly after the two colored
men, whom police had escorted
into the park, surrounded by the
booing, epithet-calling crowd of
about 200 persons, had entered the
pool.
Police Chief jeremiah O'Con-
nell, who had some seventy Off
sers assigned to the area at the
time the pool opened, put in a call
for additional men,. Within few
minutes 100 uniformed officers,
each armed with a night stick,
marched into the park, bringing
cheers from some of the children
in the crowd and jeers from their
elders.
The Rev Patrick J. Molloy,
moderator Of the Catholic Inter
racial Council and pastor of st.
Peter Claver Church, was present
in the park last wednesday after
noon and attempted to convince
the crowd of unruly white persons
that the order of Federal District
Judge Rubey M. Hulen, opening
the city's two outdoor swimming
pools to colored swimmers, was
Just and must be complied with
in an orderly manner.
At Marquette pool, which was
