WASHINGTON. Psrticipu-
ton Of MAJOR General William s
B!ddle in the dedication Of "a
all-whte school at Fort Hood;
near Killeen, Texas, has been ue-
rounced by Clarence Mitchell,
director Of the Washington
NAACP branch.
In a blisierins telegram TO
Assistant Defense Secretary
John a. Hannah. Mr.. Mitchell
charged that the generals pres
enee gives the impression that
the Defense Department is fully
in accord with this disgraeeful
form Of humili siing eolored mil
iiarY personnel by excluding
their children from educational
facilities on government prop
erfy."
Previously. the NAACP repre-
sentative had protested the open
ing OF such a school in view OF
the Defense Departments order
that all schools on military posts
be integrated by the TALL OF 1855.
Meanwhile. this segregated
school is being completed and
another is under construction at
the Perrin Air Force base near
Sherman, Texas.

AT Pledges to Aid
Rights Protesters

WASHINGTON-H. Lee White,
Assistant Secretary of the Air
Force. has given assurance to
Clarence Mitchell, director of the

statement on whether officers

This assurance was given 10
Mr.. Mitchell al a conference
held following NAACP charges
that Ii. Thomas Williams. an
Air Force officer. was being
dropped from the Service be-
cause Of circumstances caused
by his refusal TO obey a segre-
CATION requirement while he
was a passenger on bus going
from Eglin Field in Florida 10
Craig Air Force Base in Ala
bama.
The Air Force has dropped 1t.
Williams under guise of reduc-
ton in force, Mr.. Mitchell
charged. and he urged that the
officer be restored to duty Mr..
White promised that he would
personally review the file in the
case.
The NAACP official said that
the Williams case was only a
symptom OF a broader practice
under which colored officers. who
refuse to accept Jim Grow regu-
lations on buses and trains when
they are passengers in interstate
travel. are frequently reprimand-
ed by their superior officers.

WAC Indignation
On at Fort Knox

WASHINGTON. - Segregation
among WACs at Fort Knox. KY.
has been eliminated and Negro
women serving their country at
that army installation are fully
integrated.
This iniegraiion resulted from
an investigation started by Con-
gresham Jacob X. Javits (Rep..
Lib. N. ~ acting upon infor-
nation relayed 10 him by q
Negro WAC stationed there.
Several months ago Rep. Javits
received letter from a young
woman stationed al Fort Knox
stating that
"On the 9th day Of October.
1852, ! raised my right hand TO
Almighty God swearing TO Him
that ! would faithfully serve nv
country but. she added, she did
not realize then that segregation
would confront her on the army
installation although she had
been warned that.she might be
stationed in the South where
the custom Of discrimination is
practiced.
The New York girl called upon
her representative in Washington
to do something about this sit
uation.
Congressman Javits immediate
ly wrote the Army quoting from
the young woman's letter. with
out revealing her name, and
asked for an Investigation and
report on this matter.

GATES FARMERS BUTCHER
HOGS DESPITE WEATHER

Gates County farmers have been
killing hogs, unlikely weather not
withstanding.
John w. Artz, county agent for
the State College Extension Serv-
ice, points out that few years
ago hog growers had to wait until
the weather was right before
slaughtering their porkers, but
now they kill hogs on any day
during the normal butchering sea-
son, regardless of temperature.
The reason? Artz says it's the
availability of cooling and storage
facilities.
Since November local ice and
coal plant has accepted $4,000
pounds of cut-out pork for the
salt cure" After a months cur
ing, the meat is taken back to the
farm and given several good smok-
ings.
This and 10000 pounds of dress
ed hogs that the plant has chilled
for farmers assures Gates County
