Elected From
Civic Meeting

workers were handed a cal
lous insult here last Monday
night when they were blunt
ly asked by o. H. Jones,
secretary of Memphis Board
of Education, to leave a
meeting sponsored by the
Minute Women of the U.S.A.
The meeting was being
held at Bellevue Junior High
School under the sponsor
ship of the Memphis Chap

an organization composed of
white ladies, and was being
presided over by Mrs. Will
lie r.. Ayers, it's chairman.
Negroes were attending
in answer to written invi-
tations extended them by
the organization, asking
Negro social workers and
leaders to participate in a
forum on "Aid to Dependent
Children"
1t is reported that Jones
is alleged to have told Mrs.
Ayers the meeting could not
be held at the school if
Negroes were to remain, ad-
vising that he would call
the police and have them
elected as no interracial
meeting could be held in a
Memphis public school.
Mrs. Ayers repeatedly
told Jones that she had at

at Tech High School and
Negro teachers frequently
met together in joint meet

Christmas anthem, GLORY to God in the highest and
on earth peace goodwill toward men,"
For nearly two thusand years this DID, old story
has been told annually to millions of eager listen
ers and somehow until this day it has not grown old
Somehow all nature seems to respond to it's appeal
We regard Christmas highly someone has said,
what if every day were Christmas? That suggestion
at first thought is not altogether agreeable with
some people We can imagine the numerous pro-
tests against the idea because of the excuses to which
most OF us go during the Christmas holidays There
are tired mothers and housewives for whom Christ
mas means added responsibilities and duties;
Fathers, already heavily burdened with financial
obligations fear the extra Christmas demand may be

End Division Legislators
Guests of Nome Chamber

The Chamber of Commerce had
as guests yesterday noon Rep
resentatives Ted Duffield and
Charles Fagerstrom, who have
just returned from trips to the
States following the legislative
session in Juneau.
Duffield, who went as far as
Panama and Jamaica, states that
he believes the most important
single accomplishment of the ses-
sion was the legislation which Gre
ated the Department of Territorial
Police, which will be to Alaska
what the Mounted Police are to
Canada and is an important step
towards statehood.
Fagerstrom, who covered the
States by car with his wife and
States from coast to coast by car
with his wife and small son, said
he believes statehood would solve
many problems of the territory.
Both men, who were new to
the legislature, feel that they have
learned a great deal and would be
better able to serve the Second
Division at the next session, be-
cause Of the experience gained.
