Reflector Type License
PIufes For Minnesota

Koscie H. Marsh, DFL candi-
date for Secretary Of State, in a
speech prepared for delivery at
Halle Q. Brown Community Hall,
st. Paul, on Tuesday evening
September End, deplored the con-
tinued use Of Minnesota's outmod-
ed, antique, cussed and discussed
automobile license plates. Marsh
declared, The time has come
when we must start saving Min
nesotA lives. We must stop this
needless traffic waste Of human
lives. Reflector type automobile
license plates that shine in the
dark provide an up to the minute
sensible approach TO this problem
of greater highway safety. More
than half a million accidents each
year involve vehicles headed in
the same direction. Some 300, 900
accidents each year are the result
of rear end collisions and the
fatal rate per mile OF travel is
three times as high at night as II
Is during the day. Why? Because
people can't see well enough at
night to avoid accidents even at
moderate traffic speeds. Another
reason being that traffic hazards
loom up at night without warning
that might easily be avoided in
daylight. Luminous or reflector
type automobile license plates will
make every car visible TO other
motorists thus giving an extra
margin of time to avoid accidents.
These plates will make Law En-
forcement easier and highway
patrols and other law enforce
ment agencies can read registra-
ton numbers faster and more ac-
curately.
The states of Maine and Con-
necticut are now using reflector
type plates, and they have proven
to be very successful.
These plates cost no more than
the type Of plate that we are us
ing at present. Furthermore, this
new plate is one that could be
used for several years simply by
use of clip on year tag such
as Wisconsin is now using.
Remember, II may be your life
or my life that will be saved by
having Minnesota adopt this up
to-date reflector type automobile
plate that shines in the dark.
Tell your friends and neighbors
about this plate and do all you
can to join me in my fight to
save Minnesota lives"

Alexander Soys
He Will Support
Civil RIGHTS Cain

Former Congressman John G..
Alexander, who is a candidate for
that office from the third Con-
gressional district, has issued this
special statement to the Spokes-
man.
You may tell your readers to
count on me to support every
single civil rights gain they have
made in Minnesota. Furthermore,
am going to do everything in
my power in Washington to
spread those rights over the en-
tire nation.
But that isn't enough. The
people Of America have been the
victims of political party
which gives civil rights with one
hand and takes them away with
the other.
Equality must go deeper than
the mere right to vote. II must
include equality in the armed
forces draft, for instance. Men of
every color must stand shoulder
to shoulder II our country is en-
dangered. And no one color must
give more of its sons than an
other.
Equality means, to me, that
there must be no government
money spent on schools which dis
Criminate between students on the
basis of color.
1T must mean that every
child shall have the same oppor-
tunity to grow up in peace. II
means that every child shall be
allowed to enter any profession,
business or line of work and re-
ceive equal pay for equal work.
and an equal chance TO get a job
on the basis Of his natural ability.
II am in favor OF FEPC, Of
course. But want to go beyond
mere law and do what I can to
see that FEPC is lived up to-"

Teachers Union Votes
To Speed Integration
Of Jim Grow Locals

Syracuse, ". Y. - CAMP -
Segregated public schools in the
nations capital were called "un-
democratic, unconstitutional, I'M
equal wasteful, not required by
law, contrary to characterization
morality and ethics and in con-
flict with the treaty obligations of
the United States with the United
Nations" by a resolution adopted
here last week by the national
convention of the American Fed
GRAFTON of Teachers.
A lengthy debate over this is
sue marked the 35th annual con-
vention. The executive council was
ordered to speed action for the in
tegration of two racially segre-
gated teacher locals in Washing
ton.
The federation has seven segre-
gated locals, all in the South.
Washington has three, two for
whites and one for colored tea
cheers. But Washington has a
racially integrated local for at
tendance officers who are men,
bers of the Federation.
All the segregated locals were
chartered by the federation before
the adoption of a constitutional
amendment prohibiting racial dis
elimination within the federation.
The directive to the council was
based on a resolution adopted by
a voice vote of the divided dele
gates.
The resolution declared that the
action for the indignation of the
Washington locals was a first
step toward the elimination of all
the segregated units.
Miss Frances p. Given, a MEM
Der of the Louisville, Ky. local,
one of the federation's integrated
units in the South, argued against
the directive. Her contention was
that the locals should be permit
ted to solve their own problem.
This view was supported by Miss
Selma Borchardt, the Fedora
tons Washington representative.
She, too, argued that it was the
local groups that would bring in
tegration, not the main body.
Attempts to modify the resolu-
ton were opposed by Miss Layle
Layne of New York City. Miss
Janice Fink of Chicago declared
that the members of the conven-
tons human relations committee
felt that federation attempts to
eliminate segregation had been
carried forward at too slow a
rate" She added that all men,
bers of the AFT in a sense share
in the shame of these locals"
