Asked by Citizens Group

The Oldest Inhabitants, Inc,
has petitioned the Board of Edu-
cation to ask for DR.. Hobart M.
Cornings resignation as superin-

The colored citizens group, in a

resignation in view of DR.. Corn
ing's stand in refusing to allow
Mrs. Pearl S. Buck to address the
Cardozo High School students at
recent graduation exercise.
The resolution said, in part:
I'VE believe, with Mrs. Pearl
Buck, that the true reason of the
cancellation of the invitation to
speak before the graduating class
was of her known opposition to
segregation.
I'VE feel that this illogical &C
ton by the superintendent of our
Washington schools will have un-
favorable and dangerous roper

COME AND SEE THE AMAZING
"pRE. WAR VALUE" HOMES
THAT NO ONE THOUGHT WE
COULD BUILD AT THIS PRICE!

A few months ago we decided to take a
challenge and prove something-that
it was still possible to build big,
three-bedroom home at less than
$4,000. Everyone we know told us it
couldn't be done.
We took the challenge and set to work to
prove that it was still possible to build
a fine home that you and your family
would want to own-at price that
small incomes could afford.
Do yourself fovor-come out and see
how much farther your home-buying
dollar will 60 than you ever thought
it would. See how fine home you can
own for just $6284 per month, plus
taxes and insurance.
Everything Is quality in this home. The
only thing that's been cut down is the
price. We're just hoping that we'll sell
enough at this low price to make
small profit.
