To End Jimcro
In Public School

New Orleans-A suit to end
segregation in Louisiana schools
was filed by Atty A. P. Tureaud
In federal court last week.
Specifically, the suit was
brought In behalf of 40 children
IN Orleans parish and 70 in st.
Helena parish. 1t seeks to declare
unconstitutional the section in the
Louisiana constitution stating that
separate educational institutions
snail be maintained for Negroes
and whites in the state. It asks
mat the courts restrain school
boards from practicing policies OF
discrimination against Negro chill
dren.
Tureaud charged that the pupil
load by Negro teachers was far
heavier than those of white teach
ers, and that school property diff
Tered vastly in value. The claim
also states that Negro children
are denied the facilities and ad-
Vantages provided for white
children and are not given the
same courses of study.
