pa County subject to the Demo-
cratic primary on September 7th.A
Brooke, a well-known business
man, served in the 7th and 9Th
legislature. Among points in his an
nouncement were: Il believe in
fair and equitable treatment for all
labor organizations, and that tthe
voice of labor should be heard in
the affairs of government"
Il believe that businessmen, as
such, should have a greater voice
in the state government, since they
act as tax collectors of more than
half of the states income in the
form of sales taxes, gasoline taxes
and luxury taxes"
'The most pressing problem, y
Brooke stated, "is the additional
revenue needed, on state level,
for schools" He proposes 3 per
cent sales and use tax.
Further, II believe that all
groups in the state should be in
vited and encouraged to make their
views known to the legislature, and
that they be treated with courtesy

The balance wheel of the Fresno

year-old, twice a grandmother,
Vera Miller. Her 26 years Of soft
ball experience stand her in good
stead when she takes her turn on
the mound. Veras forte is control
pitching and a change-up. She is
especially effective when the chips
are down.

National Urban
League AIerts
IFS 50 Branches

The National Urban League to-
day (May 1S) issued
National Urban League Tuesday,
May 1S, issued an emergency pro-
gram for its 60 branch offices
throughout the nation to immedi-
ately begin conferences with Off
cials in their communities to i'm
plement the historic Supreme
Court decision outlawing segrega-
tion in the public schools.
Lester B. Granger, executive di-
rector of National Urban League,
pointed out that the whole world
will be watching to see how this
decision is implemented, not only
in the 21 states directly affected,
but in the great urban centers of
the North and West"
public school segregation in
some of these areas he said, "is
in fact on the increase. For ex-
ample, in New York City from 1900
to 1880, Negroes and whites at
tended the same public schools.
Now because of the residential Sc
gregation and inadequate, segre-
gated elmentary schools, New York
City has, in fact, not only separate
but uneaqual educational facilities y
"The integration of teachers is
still a long way off," he added.
"Most Negro teachers teach only
Negro youths in these separate
schools of the North and West"
"The Courts decision must be
supplemented not only in the South
but throughout the country on the
local level in the urban commu-
mites where people have their
homes and where their children go
to school. 1t requires voluntary ac-
ton by men and women of good
will, white and colored, working
together through local interracial
agencies"
Granger congratulated NAACP
for it's success in the now historic
Supreme Court decision.
"Thurgood Marshall has immor-
talized himself" he said. Future
generations of Americans, Negro
and white, will forever be conscious
of his contribution to American
democracy. The timing of the de-
cision is providential, coming as it
does at a moment when our strug-
gle to win the minds of the peoples
of Asia and Africa and the Middle
East is so vital to the future OF
freedom"
The League will devote major
portion of it's annual national con-
ference to be held in Pittsburgh ir
September to a discussion of pro-
grams whereb local Urbar
Leagues can cooprate with public
officials and community groups tC
