which can be seized on some pre-
text over all civilian property"
The committee added it had no
reply to a letter sent March IL to
the Defense Department on this
question
The editors also urged study
of measures taken to protect re-
lief clients Of the Federal Security
Agency and Bureau Of Unemploy-
|ment Security from publicity, but
said they did not wish to pass
judgment in these cases.
Several Examples Cited
Among examples of what the
committee labeled "contemptuous
challenges" on the State level
were these:
A statement by New York Gov.
DeWey's press aide, James A.
H Hagerty, that he frequently
blocked efforts Of reporters to
check sources.
The fact that in Yonkers. N. r,
about half the marriage licenses
are an official secret. How any
body in Yonkers knows who Is
living in welded bliss and who in
sin is a mystery"
Some of the records habitually
being denied are so basic," stated
the committee, "as to make skep-
tics of many who believed public
information was still fairly Free"
Newspapers already are fight
ling restrictions both in their
columns and through the courts,
the committee pointed out.
The editors said they hoped to
develop "a broad and aconcerted
offensive on all tamperers with
news" And they warned:
/ Freedom of the press does not
necessarily bring freedom Of in
formation. We are free to fight
for all the news of our Govern
ments. and we are free, no doubt,
\ to forfeit it. But we can't get it
without a fight"

cited this regulation: Outside
military reservations, guards will
prohibit photographing of CLASH

I'VE say, nonsense" said the
committee. Military guards have
no earthly right on civilian terri
tory to prohibit anything.

Phoenix NAACP
Sues School Board

Phoneix, Ariz., Oct. IS - The
Mariocopa County Chapter of the
NAACP. last week filed suit in the
q. S. District Court against the
local high school board of educa-
ton Basis for the suit is the
Boards refusal to admit Negro
pupils to high schools other than
the Carver High school and the
Poenix Technical school
The NAACP contends that
schools set apart by the school
board for white pupils are superior
TO those set apart for Negro pupils.
Further, it contends that racial
segregation in Public Schools is
a violation of the 14th amendment
and thus unconstitutional.
Attorneys associated in the case
are w. P. Mahoney, Jr., Stewart

nix, Loren Miller and A. L. Wirin

equipment that is no longer disable.
Among the clubbers who are
gathering up scrap metal in Mary
land are John Griffith and Gary
Wiseman of Prince Georges county.
The other day they collected a
truckload of scrap in less than two
hours on Fred Proctor's Clinton,
Nd, farm.
There were two broken tractor
wheels, and old rusty mule-drawn
tobacco and vegetable transplanter
which had been supplanted eight
years ago by modern tractor drawn
equipment. Also, there were two
rims from broken wagon wheels, a
rusted out cultivator, three old
turnplows, and a pile of odds and
ends.
The Alters looked at their sal
wage and estimated that it would
weigh more than a ton, which at
the going-rate in the Washington
area, would bring close to $50 when
delivered to the scrap yard.
Both boys are seniors at Doug
lass high school in Upper MARI
boro. Gary has carried All projects
since 1915. He raises tobacco, a
garden, and some ducks. John is
sharecropping two acres of tobacco
with his uncle. Also, he has a
Duroc brood sow which will farrow
within a month. The two clubbers
hope to harvest on halves at least
10 tons of scrap as a sideline this
fall.

Negro Suits Stop
Police Brutality
In Richmond, Va.

Richmond, Va. - Oct Is - A
$4,000 damage suit filed against
Police Court Judge Carleton S..
Jewett in the Federal district court
involving a Negro plaintiff who
charged she was subjected to
malicious and willful" acts be-
cause of her race, was dismissed
last week at the request of her
attorney.
Howard Carwile, her attorney
said afterwards that "a principle
had been indicated"
Carwile explained that prior to
Miss Carriers case, Negro women
even though charged only with a
misdemeanor, were detained in the
police "bull pen" before and after
trial. White women, however, were
housed upstairs in the care of a
matron, no matter what their
offense, he said.
Since the suit was filed, Carwile
added, Police Court has practiced
democracy by debasing all the
women, white and colored, and
keeping them in the bull pen with
the men.
The lawyer said his aim in the
suit was to show that "the judge
of a lower court may be sued"
The point was maintained, he said,
when Judge M. Ray Doubles held
that if the plaintiff could prove
the allegations the defendant would
be liable.
