nah, last week at the weekly press
conference. The revelation came
after reporter had inquired as
to whether segregation was still
practiced in schools on military
bases in the southern states.
Hannah admitted that II was,
but added that the deadline for
complete indignation was set for
autumn of 1865. He pointed out
that many problems had to be
ironed out by officials in the
various states.
II indignation cannot be accom-
plished through negotiations by
that time, said the defense as
sistant secretary, IL will be up to
Mrs. Hobby's department TO fur
nish integrated facilities. This
might mean the building of new
schools.
The White House announced
last March that indignation in
schools on navy bases would be
completed by fall Of this year.
The Defense Departments posi-
ton drew fire from the NAACP.
Mitchell's letter to Hannah de-
clared that persons who have been
interested in thwarting the Presi-
dents plan TO end segregation on
military posts have apparently
taken the upper hand"
I'VE have a strong suspicion
that much of the delay in chang
ing practices Of segregation can
be traced to the u. S. Office Of
Education" declared the NAACP
spokesman. This agency has been
consistently hostile TO any pro-
gram OF lnteEraIiOn.
Mitchell urged the defense de-
partment TO adopt an integrated
program as rapidly az possible.
Il have followed the course Of
legislation which makes funds
available for the operation Of
schools on military posts and /
can see no reason. under the law
which would prevent the military
from taking over and operating Of
all existing schools on military
posts now" continued the letter
Hence. there can be no legal
justification for the delay.

Miller caught Richey at Olson

Richey told Miller he would
see him the next day and straigh-
ten out the matter. Miller demur-
red and asked Richey to wait until
the police came.
Richey drove off and Miller re-
ported the matter to the police.
A radio broadcast ordered Rich

the job requires many men and
big departments with special
supervisors in each--one for city
circulation, one for mail circula-

overall authority-and hundreds
of carrier boys, street statesmen

Publishing newspaper is BIG
BUSINESS whether it be in
Podunk Hollow or New York City.
No longer can a newspaper be es-
tablished with a "shirttail full of
type" The day of the bedroom
print-shop" passed long ago. ANY
newspaper, regardless of its size,
represents as great an investment
as almost any business in its
town. Type is very expensive,
Metal is extremely high. News
print has skyrocketed in price. A
Linotype machine alone costs
thousands of dollars, to say no
thing of the complicated presses.
And they represent only parts of
the mechanics of producing to-
days newspaper. For there are
the melting pots, the saws, the
trimmers, the strip casters, the
chases, the typewriters and the
thousands of little items that go
to make up even the smallest
plant.
This is written to encourage you
to visit the newspaper plant in
your home town. To see how 1t
functions, what makes it tick 49,
and to have a greater understand

doing for you and your commu-
