In 1913 he was graduated from
Wesleyan University, with BIS in
political science, and went to Chi
cago University for postgraduate
work. At the same time, he worked
on the reportorial staff of the
Chicago Globe, weekly Negro news
paper.
After his department store ex-
pertinent, Mr.. Stone joined the
American Foundation for Political
Education as a field representa-
tive, touring the U. S. to set up
integrated educational programs at
colleges and with civic clubs. In
1854 he entered the Law School of
the University of Connecticut, but
interrupted his studies there to
join the overseas staff of CARE.
He is eager to assume his duties
in India because, he says, CARE
represents. to me the finest trait
in our national character, the will
lingness to help others less for
tunate than ourselves"
He explained that each of the
10000 CARE packages for India
contains 1914 pounds of butter oil
and 51a pounds of powdered milk,
allocated to CARE by the Depart
ment of Agriculture from U. S.
surplus stockpiles for overseas re-
lief. Mr.. Stone said: "The CARR
Food Crusade is one of the many
ways in which the American peo-
pie, through CARE, can share their
own abundance in the kind of aid
which, beyond it's immediate ma
terial benefits, extends good viii
and friendship among free nations
of all races, creeds and color"

Moulin Rouge Is
Story Of Setup
That 'coofed'

LAS VEGAS, May With the
Moulin Rouge hotel here being of
ficially declared bankrupt it is easy
to understand and discuss the ques-
tion-what happened.
Dollar wise the hotel was short
after opening week. Negroes whom
it was figured would rush to the
famous hostelry since no other one
of the many here caters to Sepians,
failed to show.
Then too the type of entertain
ment followed too closely, the pat
tern at the other hotels. Most of
the band music was of the jazz and
Rock N Roll beat and the dances
performed were on the Can, Can,
kick. 1t was matter of not CIV
ing the patrons what they came to
see. That is the few who came
at all.
Latest rumor here is that prop
erty, including the hotel, will &c
up for public auction soon. Joe

rlculture a real analysis, Owen
Cooper pointed out the POSSIBLE
ties of farm : related industry
which can give many Mississippi
full-tine and part-time farmers
much better income than they have
enjoyed during better farming
years.
Similar advice was offered by
s. R. LETTERS, Mississippi Economic
Council spokesman, who recon-
mended industrialization in the d.
rection of the processing of farm
ers' goods.
Corley Cortright, representing
the Delta Council, recommended
reducing the size of the cotton pro-
duction operation by bringing in
dustrial pursuits within range of
the squeezed out farmers.
T. B. Fatheree, state FILA sup
ervisor, described the need for
more and bigger credit in order to
put more ambitious programs into
effect.
c. B. Anders, soil conservation
list, said 100000 acres of land
in Mississippi should be in timber
alone, and a better land use pro-
gram be instituted over the state.
In addition to brief verbal rec
concentrations by members of the

recommendations were submitted

Fur on Fur

One may get the feeling with
many of the new fur styles that
the furriers are really gliding the
lily when they put a chinchilla
collar on a lush black Russian
broadtail coat.
But fur contrast accounts for
some of the most interesting
looking jacket. coat and little wrap
fashion ideas.
White mink with dyed Persian
lamb is a favorite duet. Dyed
Persian lamb with black fur seal is
another combination. River otter.
which is SOS latest fashion heart
throb, gets a regal trim of ranch

Obviously, it's a fashion case
of two sometimes being better
than one.

Most coats are slightly blended

of encouraging the integration OF
all it's citizens into the total hous-

According OF Mr.. Swope, private
and public agencies will assist the
commission in carrying out the
following steps in the open city
project:
/. Negotiate with owners and
managers of residential property
to seek new housing for eligible
minority families.
2. Assist owners and managers
with problems incident to the adj

3. Gain community and tenant
cooperation and support for the

be referred.

hold down the number of such complaints.

School Indignation Costing Negro
Teachers Their Jobs At
Alarming Rate

The LABOR NEWS has from the very beginning
that the Negro school teachers would be the
greatest victims of the effects of the Supreme Courts
decision public school desegregation. We
y criticized and rdiculed for making this prediction
1t argued that because of the shortage of white
teachers in many sections and the surplus of qualified
Negro teachers that they would be used to fill the
vacancies.
We contend that the main opposition to desegrega-
ton in public schools the employing of Negro
teachers in mixed schools after the schools had
integrated.
A survey made by the New York Times shows that
over five hundred Negro teachers in the South have been
ousted from their jobs because of school ntegraton
Negro teachers, in most instances, lost their jobs
because the colored schools abandoned and the
students absorbed in the white schools The report
that for the most part the ousted teachers had tenure
contract Many had from twenty to thirty years of
experience The heaviest loss felt in Oklahoma
where 161 school districts have been ntegated costing
295 teachers their jobs In Kentucky 60 teachers
jobess An estimate of 81 in West Virginia Thrtyfive
have lost their jobs in Texas where only comparative
ly few schools have been integrated.
1t appears that Louisville Kentucky has been the
only place where Negro teachers have been absorbed
