PHOENIX .Anz, Jan. z QNS)-The father of a Negro soldier killed in

= Tr their country"
Reeds son, PFC. Thomas c. Reed, 19, has been refused burial since Nov.
28 at Greenwood Memorial Park because of a rue. that before a Negro veteran
may be buried there a written request must be made o the cemetery board of
ustees by local veterans organizations.
F. &. Hanna, board chairman of the cemetery a private corporation owned
by Masonic Lodge No. {, said the veterans organizations have not met these
conditions.
Last September, the Disabled American Veterans of Foreign Wars wrote
the board asking that all Negro veterans be buried in the cemeteryin the future
on request from next of kin.
They voiced the opinion that for veterans organizations to have to seek
permission smacked of discrimination.
Hanna said Negro veterans have been buried in the cemeterys white vet

He indicated the LukeGreenway Post of the American Legion vas in his
opinion, trying to make an issue in the Reed case by attempting to institute a

Jim Crow Continues
Because OF ice
BY ALBERT ANDERSON

WASHINGTON - (ANP) -
Nine courageous senators are
seeking the passage Of Senate
bill No. 1886 which would end
segregation and jimcrow on the
nation's railroads and other in
terstate public transportation in
the south.
After nearly a year of trying to
get action on this proposal, they
have not succeeded yet.
The principle of their proposal
has been upheld several times by
the United States Supreme court
and other federal courts, but
JlmcroW in travel still continues,
particularly in the south.
1t is generally known that real
enforcement of the rulings by
the federal courts lies within the
power of the Interstate Com
merce Commission, a federal
agency that governs interstate
transportation in the United
States.
Less than two months ago, the
ICC took its most recent stand in
favor of jimcrow when it ap-
proved a emi-jimcroW system of
seating Negroes in dining cars by
the Southern Railway. It voted
IA against a protest of these
fuleS made by Elmer w. Hender-
son. the man who cracked the
dining Car curtain in a Supreme
court decision made in 1850.

Bible Reading Is
Still in Question,
Official Claims

NEW YORK-The action of the
US. Supreme Court in dismissing
a New Jersey suit to prohibit Bible
readings in the public schools de-
finitely does not mean that this
practice is constitutional, Leo Pfef-
fer, assistant director of the Com
mission on Law and Social Action
of the American Jewish Congress,
said this week.
"On the contrary" Pfeffer said,
"the Supreme Court expressly re-
fused to uphold the New Jersey law
providing for Bible readings. The
court dismissed the suit simply be-
cause, in the view of the majority,
the plaintiffs had not alleged in
jury to themselves and, therefore,
had no right in this instance to ap-
peal to the Supreme Court. The
constitutionality of Bible readings
in public schools remains, there
fore, undetermined"
Two File Action
The suit had been brought by
two residents of the township of
Rutherford, one of the plaintiffs,
Mrs. Anna E. Klein, suing as q
parent of child in the towns
public schools and the other, Dom
aid r. Doremus, as a taxpayer.
In an opinion for the majority,
Justice Jackson pointed out that,
since Mrs. Klein's child had gradu-
ated and left the school system
before the appeal reached the us.
court, the case was academic as
far as she was concerned.
