YAkUTAT INDIANS PRESENT MUSEUM
 WITH pRIzED RELICS

One of the finest collections of Indian relics to be obtained by the Territorial Museum has arrived here from Yakutat. where Museum Curator Edward L. Keithahn spent several days this week making pur- chases from the natives there.
 The Yakutat natives. farthest north tribe of theNThlinget Indians, have incorporated as town and decided to do away with their totemic and heraldic prizes which have adorned their homes since time immemorial.
 But they didn't want their heir looms to leave Alaska. and they wanted them kept in fireproot place. So they offered the material to the museum here.
 Keithahn hasn't unpacked every thing he brought back from the Ocean Cape settlement, but few of the most prized exhibits he has on display already-in temporary spots, prior to deciding exactly where to put them.
 The greatest prize he obtained

was a house totem 30 inches wide and five feet tall, once a portion oi screen. The figures depict a she grizzly and her mythological hus- band. the husband being adorned with human hair.
 Both have eyes of silver, and the husband has silver teeth besides.
 Keithahn was house guest of the R. w. Millanders while in the town. Millander is an employee of the Civil Aeronautics Administration.
 The collection includes several house totems, number of ermine and buckskin potlatch shirts, masks, song batons, thunderbird screen, and other picturesque devices made many years ago and cherished by the Yakutats until they decided to drop their ancient customs-or a, least their symbols.
 The younger generation, they told Keithahn, didn't seem interested ill heraldry and few in fact can speak the mother tongue. He was startled to see. three girls studying an an- cient copy of Swanton-written in 1905-trying to learn their own" language. Swanton came north that year and wrote down the Thlinget tongues phonetically, and is still considered the top authority on the dialects.
 One ceiling plaque. depicting an Indian who discovered both the north and south poles-long before Amundsen-he left behind. because the museum couldn't accommodate the piece.
 He brought numerous silver or, naments, however. A nose ring. a blanket clasp and other art work he has on display already. The silver was brought in by early trad CTS and fashioned by the early Indians into art objects.
 The natives, who leave their vil- lage empty each fishing season, were afraid that fire might destroy their relics, and that was another reason for presenting them to the Museum.

unchanged in centuries. They were
welcomed by the Dalai Lama in

of that other-wordly potentate and

in Lhasa, the two American travel
ers had the feeling that they were
completely off this planet-out of
the world. Life in that country has
been almost entirely untouched by
Western civilization.

Negro Schooling
EquolitY Asked
In High Court
~ Associated Press

" Associated Press
WASHINGTON. Feb. 1870
licitor General Philip B. Perlman
has asked the Supreme Court or
the United States to end the prac-
tice in some states of providing
separate but equal schooling
fer Negroes ond whites.
Perlman said it violates the
Constitution and is an "undis-
guised species of racial discrimi-
nation"
Perlman filed g brief yester-
day as a friend of the court"
supporting the claims of two
Negro students whose cases the
court will take up next month.
"The United States" he said.
urges the court TO repudiate the
separate but equal doctrine as
an unwarranted deviation from
an unwarranted deviation from
the principle of equality under
law which the 14th Amendment
explicitly incorporated in the
fundamental charter of this coun-
try"
That amendment to the Consti-
tuition provides that no state may
"deny to any person within its
jurisdiction the equal protection
of the laws
.Perlman cited an 1880 Supreme
Court decision that the amend
ment "was designed to assure to
the coIOred race enjoyment of all
the civil rights that under the
law are enjoyed by white per-
sons"
The two cases coming before
the court involve one student
who now attends University of
Oklahoma classes from an ante
room behind the white students,
end another who is demanding
admission to the all-white Law
School of the University of Texas.

Sousherners Trick
Selves In Filibuster
Against FEPC

WASHINGToN-(A AMP - TIL,
Dixie filibuster corps is usually 1
shameless lot, but last week th'
confererates were willing to bur,
their heads in the sand. They be
latedly discovered that if they hac
kept their mouths shut. FECT
would have been a country mile
closer to its grave.
Last Wednesday was Calendar
Day" in the House of Representa-.
tives. Every Wednesday all com.
mittees are called in alphabetical
order and are permitted to intro
duee their particular bills. The
committee on Education and Labor
was only three calls away, but
the House clerk never got to it
because of a Dixie maneuver. The
Southerners called for five roll
calls, under the pretense of seeing
if a majority of the House was in
session.
This strategy, the Southern
ers thought, kept the Labor
committee from introducing the
Powell FECP bill.
But when the session finally
ended, New York Representative
Vito Marcanonio, American Labor
Party, let out a sigh of relief.
Later he broke out into a laugh.
They filibustered against them
selves" he chuckled. IF they had
only known, they could have just
about killed FECP by employing
speed rather than delay tactics.
They could have let the Bank
ing Committees bill slide through
in a hurry. They could have
prompted the chairmen of the
next two committees. both South
ern Democrats, to decline the call
to bring up measures. and let the
next call go to the Labor commit
tee with it's FECP bill"
Marcantonio said the Labor
committee had authorized no one
other than Its chairman to call
up the FECP bill, and once
passed by, the labor body would
not have another calendar day.
until next Congress.
I'VE proponents of FECP were
afraid that they would find out
that John Lesinski, chairman of
the Labor committee, was in dis
trict court, under subpoena as
witness in the perjury case against
Harold Christoffel, and couldn't
answer for his committee.
