CHRISTIANSBURG, VA.
To the Colored Residents of
Christiansburg, Cambria and
Vicinity:
One year ago this month a
group met with purpose in
mind of cleaning our GENE
terry. This group has worked
consistently for a year try
ing to raise funds for which
to do this job. To date we
have succeeded in raising
near $4,000 of which is de-
posted in the bank.
We have contacted a con-
tractor to use a bulldozer i'm
cleaning this ground. His
price is $1,500.OO to clean
cemetery and haul rubbish
away. In order to raise this
amount we must ask each of
you for help. Some families
have already contributed the
five dollars that we first
asked for, but as you will
realize to raise the amount
necessary each family will
have to pay at least $1,000.
Those families who have not
paid any money towards this
job, please do so at once as
you know this task of beau
tifying our cemetery bene-
fits or will benefit every
family in thi is vicinity.
Please remember that we as
a minority group have so
much ugliness in life as a
race who constantly faces
trials and tribulations we
owe it to ourselves and es-
pecially to our loved ones

He's the fellow on a beat
who speaks, rather gruffly
to you about some mis-

the friend of the waits of

across the intersection, with

to the overturned car on the

He's the very much en-

you to a hospital for the
birth of your first born an

helps your young one into

He's the fellow who made

liceman who guides your
children across the danger

make their way home from
school every evening.
He's the fellow who, like
the average school teacher,
is generally overworked and
underpaid but he's al

squeeze a dime out of his
thin wallet to give a hungry
kid the price of a hot meal.
He's the head of his own

He's the essence of calm

He's the bearer of sad

Senate Vote Slated
Tomorrow on JOINING
Two Statehood Bills

The Senate will reach a vote
tomorrow on the move to include
Alaska in the Hawaiian state
hood bill, with the outcome still
in doubt.
Senator Anderson. Democrat,
of New Mexico. who will make
the motion, believes it will help
bring statehood to both terri
tories. Other Senators fear tying
the two together will defeat
statehood for either territory
at this time.
This fear is based partly on
|, the fact that the House,, has
passed only the Hawaiian bill.
and partly on the fact that plac-
ing both territories in one bill
twill bring tcgetner Senators who
oppose statehood for ethe one or
the other 1t
With most of the Republicans
favoring,. separate action and
most of The Democrats support
ing Senator Anderson. the vote
is expected to be extremely close
1t may be decided by one or two
votes.
President Eisenhower told a
news conference that he. favors
the Republicans plan of keep
ing the bills separate He said
he sees no reason why each
cannot be handled on its own
merits.
Senator Anderson told the
Senate yesterday the Alaskan
bill has been ION ice" in the
House Rules Committee and that
the only chance of getting House
action this year is to include
Alaska in the Hawaiian bill.
Although President Eisenhower
made a speech in 1850 favoring
statehood for both territories,
the administration has recon-
mended action at this time only
on Hawaii.
Senator Anderson said any
party that tries to bring in any
new State for temporary gain
is deluding itself. He said it is
entirely conceivable that Hawaii
may send two Democrats and
Alaska two Republicans to the
Senate.
