become the 49th state, civil rights
legislation is doomed for another
setback despite efforts of the
nations pressure groups Of out
side" forces.
While most Of the country con-
siders Hawaii not only q healthy
state, but socially and economi.
cally strong as well, southern
senators last week limited that
they would fight all proposals and
bills. making not only Hawaii, but
any area where the whites are In
an absolutely minority, the 49th
state.
II was back In 1884. when
Franklin Pierce was president,
that Hawaii made its first bid for
statehood. Now, a century later,
the latest bid is facing defeat in
the Senate.
Most folks think the bill stands
a good chance OF passing. II there
are no slip-ups. President Elsen-
hover is in favor. The House
passed the bill 274-13S nearly
two weeks ago, and the last
stumbling block, the Senate, IL
expected to reach its decision
about April l.
Anyway you look at 1t, several
factors stand out among others:
1. II the United States admit
Hawaii as the 49th state II will
be taking in for the first time a
state In which the Caucasian
race Is an absolute minority. thus
adding a possible two votes
boosting civil rights in the SEN
ate.
2. Virginia, one Of the states
fighting to maintain separate
schools for Negroes, IL leading
opposition to defeat statehood
for Hawaii.
3. Hawaii would be the first
state outside the continent to be
admitted which could give Alaska
its long awaited chance TO become
possibly the 60th state.
Democrats who fought unsuc-
ceSsfully TO get both Hawaii and
Alaska into the Union In the last
two congresses, say the Repubh-
cans are playing politics with the
bills this year.
Hawaii II not a. large al Texas
but Il u made up Of eight major
islands tatalling 6,400 square
miles, a bit larger than Connect
cut and Rhode Island combined.
Hawaii is additionally RepublI-
can. but this year, Democrats
gained strength in its legislature.
Alaska, long regarded as Demo-
cratic, elected q Republican ma
jor4ty In It's territorial house and
senate.
Sprinkling American styled
politics literally. the house hash
ed and rehashed the Hawaii state
hood bill and passed Il with
wide majority. and sent II to the
senate, which IL rehaShIng II
again.
Southern senators gave no hints
a. to a filibuster against the
statehood bill. but Il was appar-
ent they may attempt 10 talk the
bin TO death when Il reached the
floor.

ing problem as he saw it. A gen.
eral discussion by the entire group
followed the panel.
At noon the group attended a
luncheon at the Hotel Adams, with
Kenneth Brown as master of cere-
monies. w. Miller Barbour, west
ern regional director, National
Urban League, was the principal
speaker, discussing the great i'm
pact on housing of the rapidly ex-
panding western cities. He was
emphatic in his observation that
few, if any, communities were
planning for this growth; espe-
cially are they overlooking the
problems of inter-group relations
which this growth brings.
The afternoon session was aslo
a panel discussion developing the
subject of possible solutions to
the housing problems of minori-
ties. Participating in the after
noon session were Wesley Brazier
executive secretary of the Los An
geleS Urban League as chairman;
Ralph E. Bruneau, viee-president,
Valley National Bank; Richard S.
Hare, Kenneth Rosing, with Floyd
c. COvington and Robert c. Pitts.
both of the Federal Housing Ad-
ministration, acting as eonsultants.
Two very important suggestions
came from the meeting: That the
Phoenix Urban League request of
the Federal Housing Administra-
ton their services in conducting q
housing survey in Phoenix to de-
termine the exact housing market
of minority people. A second Sug-
gestion was that the local league
establish a housing committee
composed of top-ranking policy
making persons whose function
would be to provide accurate in
formation concerning the func-
tions of the organizations vital to
housing, and that some form of
guidance be provided for prospec-
tive home buyers and builders.
Among those attending the con-
ference were: Jesse MCLEAN,

VETERANS NEWS

4VeteranS Administration told
veterans how they can save time
in applying for schooling and train
ing under the Korean CT Bill, just
by using some of their own initia-
tive.
Before they even apply for
training, they should take these
two steps:
1. Get a photostat or certified
copy made of both sides of their
discharge or separation paper (De-
partment of Defense Form 215).
They'll need it to attach to their
application.
2. If they're sure of what they
want to train for, find out whether
the school or training establish
ment will accept them under the
Korean CT Bill.
On the application form, which
may be obtained at any VA Of
flee, a veteran who has come to
a firm decision as to his atraining
goal must put it down. He also
must list the program of: training
that will help him reach his goal,
as well as the name and address
of the state-approved school or es-
tablishment where he plans to
train. -
knowing these things inradvance
will save him a good deaIsof time
when he files his application, VA
said.
On the other hand, if hes not
sure what he wants to take, and
he'd like to get expert assistance
in reaching a decision, he may re-
ceive vocational counseling from
the VA. In such a case, he should
indicate that he wants counseling
in his CT training application.
