during the present session"

because of race.


If the Berkeley Negro assembly
mans measure Alb 1855 wins appro-
val of the state senate and is sign
ed by Gov. Earl Warren, it was be-
lieved that Armstrong college in
Berkeley will be forced to change
its policy or face prosecution for vio-
lation of the law because of its adj
mitted practice Of barring Negroes
j.. Evan Armstrong ST., president
and founder of the college, is re-
ported to have said last month that
he will close the doors of his bust
ness college permanently if this
law is passed.
A reporter from the NC. campus
newspaper Daily Californian re-
Gently quoted Armstrong as saying
Negroes are Objectionable from
the point OF view of social contact,
take every opportunity to get next
to the finest girls, don't know what
social amenities are, and try to
force themselves any place"
He also told reporters that it is
impossible to place Negroes in any
good business position.
Armstrong told the y. c. report
er that aside from the ban on Me-
groes his policy was "selective SER
vice, not discrimination"

YWCA Wants Aid

This week, the public campaign
for funds to rebuild the central
YWCA and buy a new inter-racial
East Side Branch opened in Seat
tie.
For the first time in 81 years,
Seattle is being asked to contribute
to the YWCA- It is absolutely es-
sential to rebuild the old central
building. The plumbing. wiring and
electrical facilities are worn out
and in dangerous need of repair.
In addition, there is lack of space
to accommodate the number OF girls
in residence and the young peoples
groups desiring club activities.
The inter-racial East Side Branch
is entirely inadequate for today's
needs. a made-over house in
a commercial district which is in
adequate to meet the social and re-
irrational needs of the communi-
ty.
Although the YWCA Is member
of the Community Chest, it does
not receive funds from the Chest
for maintenance and upkeep. :.
only running expenses. The Chest
and the Public Appeals Board have
given the YWCA their whole heart
ed endorsement for the fund drive.
Among the many men and women
working hard to save Seattle's wv
CA are Mrs. Paul Suzuki, Mrs. Ruby
Chow, Mrs. Saburo Nishimura,
Genji Mihara and Toru Sakafrara.

 pROp05ED WINTER
 RECREATION AREA

Plans for major improvements in
 the Douglas Island winter recre-
 ation area, to be made during the
 coming season, have been formula
 ted and announced by the Juneau
 Ski Club.
 Looking to the benefit of the
 entire community, the project has
 been designed for community spon-
 sorship to offer attractions for all
 winter sportsmen, including hikers, spectators, photographers. skiers and potential skiers.
 Principal plan proposed is for a new public cabin to be erected at the slalom hill just one mile from the Douglas highway and near the site of the existing ski shelter. Preliminary plans for the cabin call for coffee and snack bar to provide refreshments for all
 users of the area; large window space to afford spectators good view of the ski slope and sufficient
 room t3 accommodate weekend ca-
 pacity crowds comfortably.
 Other proposed plans in the area would include clearing trees from the present ski slope ard installa- ton of an improved ski tow. With the added clearing of the slope
 Juneau would have one of the fin est slalom hills and tow-equipped slopes in Alaska, which gould be an attraction for variouS inter-Al- aska ski competitions. F The proposed improvements are being considei ed for approval by the U. S. Forest Service which has jurisdiction over the recreational
 area. While no funds are available to the Forest Service for recrea- tional purposes, it is expected that
 permanent personnel may be as-
 signed to supervise the execution
 of the plans. Leading civic organi- cations have been informed of the plan and assistance from them is being sought in order to bring the community a first-class winter re- creation area.

WiII Be No w aiver Explosives Handling
 Regulations, Alaska

There will be no relaxation in the regulations regarding the hand ling of Class A explosives, in AL aska, it was learned at l7th Dist rict Coast Guard headquarters here today
 Following a Congressional inves- tigation of the South Amboy, N. J. explosion which occurred May l9, 1850, the committee recommen- ded that mo permit for explosives handling shall be issued by the Coast Guard except in accordance with the limits of isolation and re- moteness of the American Table of Distances and after reasonable notice to the local municipal au- thorities by the Coast Guard with opportunity for hearing to such municipal authorities with respect thereto"
 q The Coast Guard considers this a mandate from Congress and in- terprets it to mean that no waivers can be granted. A hearing was held here in Juneau and also in Wash iington relative to the effect of the ruling on public and private works in Alaska.
 On May the chairman of the special subcommittee advised the Coast Guard that after due con- sideration it was unanimously yo- ted to table the matter.
