MT find some public aoay of
expressing n1y anger, Sorroao
and utter disgust at the out
come of the trial of the ac-
cuSed murdererS and ackno1o-
Iedged kinnapperS of the TIL
youngSter in TGIldbatchie
County, Mississippi.
This outrage against justice
is so fragrant that I cannot
turn my head and sag keep
out of it, it's not your affair"
1t is nly affair and also that
of any decent-nainded person
in this country.
1t is the law of our land
that murder should be pun
iShed and that each person
should have a just trial, re-
CARELESS of the color of the in
dividuaI.
Tallahatchie County, Missi-
sSippi, has violated the spi-
rit and the meaning of the
Constitution of the United
Stats.
Such disregard of the prin-
ciples handed down to pre-
sent-day Southerners by their
forbears is a challange to all
of us. We must accept our
responsibilities to each other
and to our own states and to
the Government of the Unit
ed States without prejudice
and insist upon a fair enact
ment of our laws and a pro-
per regard for the ideals upon
which they are supposed to be
based. We need more and
better education in the South
for all, white and colored. The
action taken at Sumner had
it's roots in abySmal ignorance.
Ignorance, however, is no ex-
cuSe.
Most of us profess to know
and believe in God. In the
eyes of God all men are equal.
Can we set our judgement
above that of His?

situation which pervades so
many churches of today, who
are bowling to the handicap

the cabaret and the night

the local standard OF music
to the highest level, and as
sembled three organizations
which have made history and
put Peoples Church in the
highest pinnacle among all
churches. She is an exponent
of the dignified, traditional
music which exalts the soul,
rather than appealing to the
emotions, and she could no
longer accept the responsible
ty for the jazzy numbers
which were used in her ser
vices.

ECBA Gets Clean
Up Progress Report

The Cleanup Campaign of East
Cleveland is being brought to the
attention of all groups within the
city.
Tuesday evening Jack Wise, the
ECBA representative on the COM
mittee made report to that or
ganization. Mr.. Wise said he was
amazed at the committee detailed
planning and follow-up plans to
make East Cleveland neater ap-
pearing city.
His special message to ECBA
members came in an appeal to
cleanup their premises on all
sides, to refrain from stuffing the
wrong waste in the city's street
waste receptables (as was reported
in at the Cleanup Committee ses-
sion); and to extend the sweeping
of their sidewalks to include the
gutter in front of their stores.
ECBA already keeps close tab
on store fronts and display win
dows, reminding members of any
slack in this respect.
In the meanwhile the East Clean
up Committee program is pro-
crossing as is evidenced by the
clearing of a few heavily Uttered
vacant lots.

sembly and it preceding Pre-
Legislative Convention at Colum-

one office, one bill favored by the
House and making progress in the
Senate when adjournment con-
cluded any further action on Sec

Leonard Short was elected Sem
ate Chaplain, the House honor for
this office going to Tom Nc
Kinney of Cincinnati. The others
were Randall Abbey and James
Kutcher.
Two bills were offered by the
East Cleveland contingent. One,
jointly sponsored by all three, pro-
vided for a re-examination each
six years for applicants for driver
licenses. 1t received 1884 vote
in the house and had anticipated
support in the Senate as that body
had to adjourn.
The second bill, sponsored by
Leonard Short and Randall Abbey
provided for the construction,
maintenance and supervision of
drag strips. 1t lost on the Senate
floor 27-6.
The local Legislators" went to
Columbus in time to attend the
special officers training session
and to visit the House and Senate
chambers while the 101st General
was in session.
A bill to establish State
Board of Education passed by both
Houses was re-passed over the
veto of the Governor. 1t required
three-fifths vote.

New Schedule For
CTS Buses 3d. 81
Starts Monday

Two changes in East Side feeder
line routes to the Rapid Transit
station at Windermere are an
nounced in letter to City Mana
ger Chas. A. Carran. Changes in
the No. 81 and No. 81 will be eff
fective with Monday, May End.
The change in the No. 81 May
field-Noble via Taylor I'd. route is
as follows: ID Throughout the
day both the a. m. and p. m. rush
hour service will be on a 12-
minute schedule.
(2) A 35-minute operating sched-
ule will be effective on week days
and on Saturdays. These two 35-
minute schedules will provide serv-
ice from 6:56 a. m. to 6:39 p. m.
(leaving Windermere).
The new service on Saturday
and the day base on week days
will be given a 60-day trial to
serve shoppers. In its communica-
ton CTS expresses the hope that
the change would prove success.
Contrary to expectations, the
No. 81 Lee Mayfield bus line is not
receiving anticipated patronage.
However, for the present, starting
MNy End, the only change on this
line will be in the rush hour on
week days when Commute
schedule will replace the up-to-
now IL minute schedule.

New Repair
Building Up
For Quarter

Building is brisk in East Cleve-
land this Spring, according to
figures in the Quarterly report for
1866 submitted to the City Com
mission by City Manager Chas
A. Carran.
Twenty-six new construction per-
mits show valuation of $546,650
against $4,000 for IL permits in
the first quarter of 1854. Repre-
sented are 16 single family houses
for $382,900 and one apartment
for $4,000.
Permits for alteration and re-
pair, not including any new struc-
lures total $44,554 of which
S14,950 is for industrial and COM
mercial buildings, and the balance
for dwellings.
Other interesting notations in the
report include a Health Depart
ment figure of ~ communicable
diseases for January, February
and March of this year. A year
ago the city was experiencing a
top measles cycle which brought
the quota communicable diseases
up to 426.
The Fire Department records
show 81 fires against AZ in the
1854 correspondin quarter.
From the Police Department
comes a total of $500 parking
violations with 5172 tickets paid
void. This leaves a backlog Of 488
unpaid parking tickets. 1t is ex-
planned that the First Quarter
normally carries larger number
of unpaid tickets due to the fact
that new license tags are issued
during this period, meaning that it
takes longer in many instance, to
contact the violator.
Violators, it is explained, are
usually given a 10 day leeway in
which to pay a parking ticket
after which notice is mailed to
them. If there is no response with
in a month, final notice brings
visitor to the violators door-an
officer with warrant,
The city's salt bill for the
period will be down a bit. Weather
condition required 353 tons of salt
to safeguard traffic on hills and
curves and main streets in con-
trast to the AL tons used during
the first three months of 1854.
Four ardent tennis fans took
out their permits to play tennis,
the city being always ready to put
up a net for the followers of this
game.
The Forestry Division trimmed
148 city trees in the start Of their
Spring program.
