Insurance Co. Lifts "CoIor.
Ban" In New York Project

NEW YORK (NNPA)-The Met
ropolitan Life Insurance Company
announced last Thursday that some
apartments in Stuyvesant Town,
it's East Side housing development,
have been leased to qualified
colored tenants
Neither the names of the new
tenants nor the number of fam
lilies. admitted to Stuyvesant Town
were disclosed by the company.
A Metropolitan official said it was
against company policy to release
such information.
It was learned from another
source that the first colored fam
lily to sign a lease will occup an
apartment in the building at 523
East Fourteenth street near Ave-
nue. B. At least five colored fam
lilies are expected to move in be-
ginning September 1st.
The selection of tenants was
based on more than mere indi-
vidual desirability. It involved
consistent practice of discriminate
ing against all colored applicants.
Efforts to have colored persons
accepted as tenants in Stuyvesant
Town began more than two years
ago.
Together with the American Jew
ish Congress and the American
Civil Liberties Union, the National
Association for the Advancement
of Colored People participated in
a legal fight to break down the
bars against colored occupancy in
Stuyvesant Town.
The New York State Court OF
Appeals on July 10, 1949, in a 4-3
decision, held that Stuyvesant
could legally bar colored persons
from occupancy. The United States
Supreme Court refused to review

Teen-Age High|ighis
BY ELIZABETH BROWN


Greetings Friends:
Now that the boys are back
from Fort Ord most of the girls
have smiles on their faces. First
of all there is Opal Jude, she and
Lynch were just staring into each
others eyes, what they were say
ing 1 don't know. And Dorothy
Hopkins took Stanch away from
the park as soon as he got there,
to have him all to herself alone.
The first thing I heard her say
was, "They have done something
to you." 1 heard somebody shout
to Marie Callahan, Marie, there
is your baby" but I don't know
who they were talking about.
At the picnic Monday night
Louisa was all smiles because Del
any was there. only saw her
once, and that was when we first
got there. Clarice Billion and Chuck
are still a perfect couple. guess
Ruth was so enthused at having
Joshua back that she wasn't at
the picnic; she probably stayed
home to hear that sermon he was
going to preach to her on arrival.
Who was the guy that was doing
so much talking to Jessenior at
the picnic, he wasn't one of the
guys from Fort Ord, or was he. :?
Who will be James Billions next
victim, maybe Villa Dean Puritt.
I wonder how Lois Mcdonald is
feeling now that Dave is back.
Emerson will surely have several
lovers now that he is back in
town. Paul Kemp still has eyes
for Lille Godgees, what will she
do, take Paul or Wallace? Uncle
Sam must have given Hermon
Purify some smart pills, because
everytime someone speaks to him
he says, "what are you speaking
to me for?" I know Garnett Will
liams is glad to get back to Shir-
ley, the girl he has been torturing
himself over while he was away.
1 also hope Bobby Davis succeeds
with her sister Geraldine because
Guy, will be here sometime soon,
1 guess. Dorothy Kemp feels like
a "Million Dollars" now that Nc
Claim is back.
Who has eyes for Tim Ryan? I
wish 1 knew, but I have a pretty
good idea, in case you happen to
find out please let me know. Whose
heart is broken because Daniel
is gone, surely not Betty Mayfield.

members in their own neighbor-

of these programs would require
many volunteers from all sections
of the city; and Lassoe. pointed out
that one of the most important
tasks was to insure that suppor-
ers of the bill understood its pro-
visions and went to the polls in
November and supported it.

Council will be held next Tuesday,

, CnlS decision.
Thirty-five tenants in Stuyvesant
Town, who were opposed to the
color bar, were notified last Aug
ust 8 to vacate their apartments
by September 80. The notices said
only that the company was exer-
cising its right under the provi-
sions of the leases giving the COM
pany the option to not renew the
leases.
There was no indication from
the company last Thursday that
it's decision to admit colored fam
lilies would affect the eviction move
against the thirty-five tenants.
Members of the group have re-
tanned Lawyers to fight eviction.
The $9O,000,000 Stuyvesant Town
housing more than 25,0OO persons,
was built as the city's first post
war housing project with some
city assistance and given certain
tax exemptions. Existing city. and
state laws banning Discrimination
in inew housing do not affect it.

Duffy will probably pickup on

lost his last love. Happy hunting

bringing to life the military and
economic agencies Of the North

Inspired European Nations.
"The Secretary reported that

and inspired the European nations

Within the next few weeks the

ciSion, would take up with the
German government the problem
of German contributions to the
defense of Western Europe.
Il am in full agreement with
the Secretary that the spirit
shown by the countries of West

House Backers Renew
Pressure for Bill 10
Allow Dual u. ). Jobs

Another attempt was to be
made today to get House ap-
proval of the bill to permit Fed
eral and District employees to hold
more than one Government job.
The Senate-approved measure
was blocked yesterday on an OBJ
lection by Representative Scriv-
ner, Republican, of Kansas, but
the bills sponsors were hopeful
that Mr. Scrivner would with
draw his objection today.
Mr.. Scrivner objected to some
minor amendments in the House
measure and the bills sponsors
were prepared to withdraw the
points in controversy.
Would Fix Ceiling at $4,000.
The measure would exempt,
under certain conditions, District
public school teachers and officials
and custodial employees of the
Board of Education. The overall
ban would apply only in cases
where the combined pay from dual
employment exceeded $4,000. The
present ceiling is $2,500.
AS sponsored originally by Sem
ator Humphrey, Democrat, of Min
nesota, the bill aimed at simplify
ing and consolidating various laws
relating to pay from dual employ
ment in the Federal and District
Governments. The bill would not
forbid dual job holding.
Exemption Rider Offered.
The House committee recently
inserted the amendment to exempt
the pay Of District school teachers
and other Board of Education en-
ployes for services in connection
with night or vacation school work
here.
Another amendment would
exempt Board of Education Gus
todial employees when they per-
formed additional work in school
buildings used for non-recreation-
al, official purposes by the Federal
Government or any District gov
ernment agency other than the
Board Of Education.

committee called procurement ac-
tivities throughout the Interior De-
partment "Wasteful and extrava-
CANT"
Intrigued by the Esquire Maga-
zine incident reporters wanted to
know why the National Park
Service needed to purchase a copy
of the August issue.
"Well, Interior told us that it
was purchased for the directors
Office of the National Park Serv-
ice," a committee aide said. "be-
cause it contained a copy of the
painting of Clusters Last Stand,
and somebody wanted to clip it
out and frame it,"

OTHER ITEMS-The subcom-
mittee said it had uncovered other
instances where it cost more to
issue a purchase order than the
price of the product.
A copy of the Rand -McNally
atlas, for which the sale price is
rs cents, actually cost the Interior
Department 39-the same as
its purchase Of Esquire Magazine,
the groups report stated.
The Bureau of Reclamation
spent $17.35 for $2.45 worth of
paper cups, the report added. And
the Fish and Wildlfe Service
spent $13.78 to purchase a 80
cents item, the subcommittee
said.
PERSONNEL-The other phases
of the subcommittee's items were
more prosaic. The group found
some things to praise, such as
the recent assignment of super
visory responsibilities to the prin-
cipal members of the Secretary S
office.
However, the subcommittee was
critical of the number of employees
in Interiors headquarters staff
here and also in the field. The
group urged stronger control by
