School Board Makes
Final Decision On
Fate OF Carver

Officials of Phoenix Union High
School and College System Board
of Education made final decision
this week at it's regular meeting,
that Carver, the last remaining
Negro High School in Arizona, will
be discontinued after this school
year ends.
The Board finds Carver too ex-
pensive to operate. It's finding, too,
was that the facilities were inade-
quate to offer an educational pro-
gram mparable with ether
schools in the system and because
Of it's location it would not be
practical to spend a million dollars
to make the school economically
worthwhile.
The resolution also said that
1--WE declare our gratitude to the
Negro community which, for a
quarter of century, has devoted
itself to the success and support
of this school but which now
recognizes the closing of this school
as symbolic of great change not
only in this community but in the
nation at large"
Carver has about $50 students,
20 teachers, clerical employees,
and custodians.
After June, "its faculty and, so
far as feasible, other employees,
shall be re-asigned to the other
schools of the system.

at an executive committee meeting
here two weeks ago called upon
the APWA to "move its western
region annual conference from the
State of Nevada to some other
western city and state where all
delegates, regardless of race, color
or national origin, may meet and
hold sessions in an atmosphere in
keeping with the letter and spirit

The NAACP charged that segre

1t was learned that the local Red

Of unemployment appears to be
past and that indications are
workers will flock back to the
plants as new model production
begins to roll.
But the politicians say any
such improvement in employ
ment is coming too late to help
the Republicans at the polls In

on price supports for dairy prod
ucts.
The Democrats, led by Gov. G..
Mennen (Soapy) Williams and
having strong organized labor
support, are hammering hard on
the theme that a Republican
administration both Statewide

made all other issues secondary

"The No. issue in the race is
the upset Of our economy under
the Republicans. I've found that
the businessmen upstate have
been as hard hit generally as the
working man. It's a sort Of chain
reaction.
"The simple truth is the
Republicans promised the voters
too much and a reaction has set
in. It's a case Of broken promises
and I think the Democrats are
going to profit from it."
Republicans Argument.
Republicans counter with the
argument that the economic let
down was the result of shifting
from a wartime to a peacetime
economy.
Senator mer Ferguson,
chairman of the G. o. P. Senate
Policy Committee and a candi-
date for reelection, said:
"The Democrats are making
unemployment the sole issue.
But I say the issue is peace or
war. OF course, we could have
jobs for every one If we went
to war with Russia. But that
isn't the way to do it. We've got
to be patient and work it out

ator Pat McCarran.
The high court set 8 pm. to

against putting senatorial can
didates on the November ballot.
The court indicated it would rule
swiftly.

In the Senate only three seats,
the legal maneuvering has taken
on added drama and injected fuel
into an otherwise lusterless Ne

At stake is whether Republican
Gov. Charles Russell's appointee

Attorney Ernest Brown an
Eisenhower supporter will fill
out the term or whether an elec-
ton will be held next month.
Lester Summerfleld, former G.

from Nevada, won the prelim-
mary round yesterday when
District Judge A. J. Maestretti
granted a permanent Injunction.
Injunction Denied.
Only last week. the State Su-
preme Court rebuffed Mr.. Sum-
merfield's attempt to obtain a
permanent injunction and sent
him back to the lower courts.
The Democrats are backed by
q ruling from State Attorney
General William Mathews - a
Democrat-that Mr.. Browns ap-
pointment is good only until the
winner Of q senatorial race Is
certified and takes Office. That
would be January 8, 1855.
Mr.. Summerfeld maintains
Nevada law provides that Mr..
Brown stay in Office for Senator
McCarran's full unexpired term.
Both Democratic and Republican
attorneys have cited previous law
eases to back up their contention.
Both concede privately that
Nevada law is conflicting on the
choosing of a successor to Sena-
tor McCarran, who died after a
speech before a Democratic rally
nine days ago.
