Board in Ohio Sues
To Keep Negro Pupils
In Segregated School
~ The Asseeiessd Press

CINCINNATI. Oct. 15.-The
Hillsboro, Ohio, Board of Edu-
cation today filed suit in United
States District Court here asking
that six Negro elementary school
pupils be required to attend the
all-Negro Lincoln School at
HiIlsboro.
The board also asked for dis
missal Of a suit. filed by parents
Of the children, for an injunc-
ton to prevent the school board
from enforcing a city coming rule
which would send the children
to the Lincoln school. The in
junction suit claimed the Zoning
rule amounted to segregation.
District Judge John II. Druf-
fel refused recently to rule on
the injunction suit until after
the United States Supreme
Court decides how its ban on
segregation in the schools can
be put into effect. His decision
to continue the case has been
appealed to the United States
Court Of Appeals. sixth circuit,
by attorneys for the National
Association for the Advancement
Of Colored People.
The School Boards suit ask
ing that the six children be re-
quired to attend the Lincoln
School declared the parents
"are now and for some time
have been unlawfully withhold
ing their children from the
school in defiance Of the laws
and the policy Of the State of
Ohio"
It declared attendance at ele-
mentary schools In Hillsboro is
determined by place Of residence
and not by race, color or national
origin.
Under the zoning of the city
a few Negro children now attend
the former all-white Webster
and Washington schools but the
board has declared the six in
volved in the court actions live
in the Lincoln school district.

M ihs Assoeiessd Press

KANSAS CITY. Oct. 15.-Rep-
resentative Douglas Stringfellow
today turned to the Central IN
telligence Agency for confirma-
ton Of his statement that he
parachuted behind enemy lines
on q secret World War II mis-
sion.
The 32-year-old Utah Repub-
lican said he would have to de-
pend on the CIA to release It's
files on him, after the Army
Times In Washington questioned
whether he really was . war
hero. He called q copyrighted
article in the Times an "un-
founded, politically inspired at
tack"
The Times asked in the story
under the by-lines Of Editor
Harold G. Stagg and managing
editor Les Honeycutt:
"Was Congressman Stringfel-
low the heroic and lone sur
vivor Of an OSS cloak and
dagger operation or was
Congressman Stringfellow a
private first class with the 62d
Armored Infantry Division who
served overseas less than one
month, but never saw combat,
although he was seriously In
jured and disabled" while on
routine assignment?
Was TV Feature.
The Army Times said Mr..
Stringfellow's accounts Of his
wartime service appeared in
Pacific Coast newspapers and on
the "This Is Your Life" tele-
vision show last January "a.
He was quoted as telling Of ex-
periences behind the German
lines with the secret Once OF
Strategic Services.
Mr.. Stringfellow told a re-
porter here last night:
"Rumors and innuendoes be-
gan circulating about me last
summer and they have increased
in scope and viciousness."
The Congressman said that II
the CHA declines to release its
records he would be in "a hell
of a lot Of trouble"
Exception Sought.
In Ogden, Keith H. Jaques,
Stringfellow's administrative as
sistant. said the CHA, because
of the nature of it's responsible
ity. is not permitted to make its
records public" but that the
White House had been asked to
make an exception.

A check showed that the CIO
president was appearing in op-
position to an administration
proposal to government-spon-
sored polls Of workers on the
question of striking. One Of the
times he used the phrase was
when he said:
"If you really want to stir the
animals up and have more
strikes and more problems and
more difficulty and more class
antagonism, that is the shortest
road to get it"
A CIO spokesman said read
ing of the testimony will clearly
show that he was pleading
against a return Of the law OF
the jungle and the spirit Of the
Jungle in collective bargaining.

Straight Ahead

These two points are thought
provoking. First on the subject of
dwelling at length on gang activi-
ties: Certainly the public has a
right to know what is going on, to
be warned of any danger existing
in the city, to be alerted with a
view to taking civic action on the
problem. Admittedly, there must
be feeling aroused on the part Of
parents to help combat this teen
age problem.
However, it might be pointed
out that all this publicity also
might serve the purposes of the
gangs involved. 1t is a certainty
that those who participate in gang
activities do so to satisfy need.
The desire for some sort of recog-
milton often prodS the young
gangster on and he is not happy
until he has made his mark. Why
help him along with press notices?
This is not as ridiculous as it may
sound on the surface when it is
considered that acts of vandalism
usually follow one after the other,
and that one report of gang out
break in one neighborhood usually
is followed by others. We would be
willing to wager that many of these
young hoodlums go on spree and
Arizona sun., 1954-09-03

then get up early the next morn
ing and get all the papers to read
their press notices. They might
even vie with each other to see
who can garner the best ones.
AS for injecting the Puerto Ri
can situation into the gang Incl
dents, this is most unfortunate. 1t
is true that any new group has its
difficulty adjusting, and they need
special attention in helping them
to fit into the community life. AL
though some of the participants in
these gang fights may have been
Puerto Ricans, these latest out
breaks do not indicate that they
have anything to do with the prob
lem of Puerto Rican adjustment. 1t
is too bad the subject was injected.
These are times when those OF
us who have the serious RESPONSE
bility of keeping the public in
formed must be on guard lest we
be guilty of tanning the smolder-
ing flame of racial and religious
prejudices. We have made far too
many advances in the field of hu-
nina understanding to have it all
undermined unnecessarily.

By OLIVE A. ADAMS

NEW YORK, (GlobaD - New
York is in the midst of a juvenile
crime wive which seems to be
without precedent in the annals of
the city. The recent revelations of
the activities of a teenage quartet
are almost beyond belief. Their
record of torture and murder is,
to say the least, astounding. In the
wake of these revelations, other
teen gangs are engaging in gang
fights, which take on the proper
tions of real grownup gang war
fare.
Many of the New York newspa-
pers have diligently covered the
activities of these groups and one
or two of them have been conduct
ing series of stories on organized
crime among juveniles in the city.
One newspaper brought up the
matter of Puerto Rican immigra-
ton in some sections of the city as
a contributory cause.

VOTER


SHAWVER
To begin with, my is E. V. "Ev' Shawver,
I am Democrat running for supervisor in District
g. and am seeking the Negro VOTE
candidate who asks the support of any group
of voters when he first for office is forced TO
RELY on words alone to win their backing. But a
candidate with any sense knows he can get away
with that only If he wants to STAY in office
he has to back up his words with action. | intend
to stay around for while if the people of District
elect me.
To win nv seat on the Board of Supervisors
feel that should have the backing OF the Negro
vote. In asking for their support | know l must be
prepared to answer question. thoroughly un-
derstand what the Negroes of this county want TO
know what is Ev Shawver prepared to do for us
Let me tell how feel about politics. 1t is not a.
matter of sentiment friendship. 1t is business
the biggest and most important business IN America
in business things get done right only when people
think in terms of profit and loss politician, there
FORE must be ready to give fair return for what
ever he asks If he establishes the rocrd OF beng un-
fair it's bound to catch up with him. No one will +
want to deal with him, or vote for him. He's not
only out of business, he can't get back IN.
To talk turkey in regard to District 3, what is the
best return for support that an elected supervisor
could make to the Negroes? In my opinion the best
return would be to see to it that Negroes are given
county jobs And am also of the belief that edu-
Gated Negroes should be given positions commen"
surate with their qualifications.
The Negroes in District No. 3 have not prev
iously been given square deal in this respect Ihey
have always wound up holding the short end OF the
wishbone.
The C A supervisors, who now control the
board have generally shown a FIXED POLICY OF
GIVING NEGROES JOBS AS JANITORS AND
LABORERS, REGARDLESS OF THEIR EDUCA-
TION AND EXPERIENCE. They also have the
record of forcing Negroes out of good positions.
It is also true, that before the BGA took
over in 1852 the situation in District wasn't much
better. The former Supervisor who also is candl-
date has the record of giving one job as truck
driver to Negro in all other cases he gave Neg
roes county employment only when there was ILL
paid dirty work to be done.
That is not the way things should operate, if a
man wants to remain in office. If am elected to Of
fce expect to ask for the Negro vote again in
1856 and | wouldn't have the nerve to do that un-
less had given a fair exchange for Negro votes.
Yours sincerely, 80
