Creighton Announces Huge
Building Expansion Plans

A major building and expansion
program costing in excess Of IA
million dollars will be launched
by Creighton University this
spring, the Very Rev. Carl Nj.
Reinert, s. j., University presi.
dent, announced recently.
"A Greater Creighton Building
Fund campaign for S1,750,O00 is
being planned this year to help
underwrite the first S3,193,000
phase of the ten-year program.
This includes the replacement Of
some present buildings, construc-
ton OF additional facilities, facul-
t. development and a program Of
increased research, scholarships
and university services.
The expansion plan has been
under study for several years and
was endorsed by the Board Of
Lay Regents at its January meet
ing, Father Reinert said. Origin
al plans to launch the nation
wide fund raising program last
fan were postponed to avoid a
conflict with the United Com
munity campaign.
Major parts Of the first three
year pnase are a S659,0O0 mems
dormitcry. a S474,000 student
center, a s1.55O.000 plant for the
Creighton University High School,
renovation of the present Creigh-
ton Prep building for use by The
Arts and Commerce colleges, and
a 5000 fund for faculty de-
velcpment, scholarships and uni
versity services.
The mems dormitory and the
student center are already under
construction and will be fin
anced in part by a loan agree
ment with the Federal Housing
Authority.
The 4232,0 900 program is the
first such longrange development
rlan since the University was
I. acd IN 1878, Father Reinert
said. The last major building adj
dition was the construction Of the
Administration building in 1929.
Creighton University must
plan boldly for the future if we
are to continue to give the kind
Of educational program demand
ed by increased enrolment and
by the growth of Tire Omaha
area" Father Reinert emphasized.
"After careful elaboration and
planning we are launching this
program to prepare u arts and
professional schools for the de
mands which are, in part, already
before Us"
Last fall our enrolment rose
seven per cent to 2651 students,
with an increase Of 395 students
in liberal arts alone" the presi-
dent SAID Like other univer-

Urban League Notes
Racial Progress Here

Progress is being made in race
relations in Omaha. From day
to day it may 60 unnoticed; but
over a longer period of time
steady progress is quite evident.
Is this progress fast enough? The
answer depends on ones point
of view. To the person who is
secure, or thinks that he is Sc
cure, the rate of progress is
amazing : maybe even too rapid.
On the other hand the minority
person who still can't get a de
cent job because the slime isn't
just right yet" or the n who
can't get the house he wants in
a nice neighborhood because the
l"community has not progressed
that far yet" : this minority per-
son feels definitely that the pro-
gress is too slow. A man doesn't
want first class citizenship just
for his children : he wants it for
himself too.
How does Omaha compare with
other cities in regard to its treat
ment Of racial minorities? The
answer is good, fair, or bad, de-
pending on what cities you select
for comparison. One thing is
certain, with the rapid changes
taking place all over the nation
and the real strides being taken
by many border and southern
cities, Omaha will have to quick
en- its pace or be left behind.
Since last year the Urban
League has helped to bring about
increased use of nonwhite sales
and clerical workers by leading
businesses, stores, food process
sing plants and service industries.
Additional skilled and semi-skill-
ed production workers have been
placed in manufacturing plants.
However, few employers have
gone beyond the "token" stage
in employing racial minorities.
A vast number remain unconvin-
ced of the economic soundness
or Of the practical feasibility of
G e n uine employment-on-merit
and are blind to its community
benefits.
During World War III many in
dustrial areas found that efficient
use of manpower meant using
the skills and brains as well as
the Drawn of all, regardless of
race, creed, color or sex. In such
areas there has been a carry-over
into peace time and the vast ma
jority of employers who had that
experience continued to hire and
promote workers on a non-dis-
criminatory basis. Omaha is grow
ing industrially.
AS a leading meat packing city,
as a leading insurance center,
as a prospecting manufacturing
and distribution center, Omaha
is reaching its potential. AS it
becomes a leader in the economic
and business world, will it also
become a leader in a social and
cultural sense? The acid test is
the way it treats its minority citi-
zens.
In the field Of housing com
munity patterns have continued
mainly to two highly congested
areas. Fringe area expansion has
only enlarged the "racial ghet-
tos." AS a result, some schools
in these areas are populated pre-
dominately by Negro children and
lack the wholesome effect Of in
~tegration. Restricted opportun-
ity to purchase new or used homes
on the open market has forced
non-whites to pay premium pri-
ces for inferior homes. Growth
Of Omaha is good, but growth OF
residential segregation, we be-
lieve. is harmful to the whole
community.
The Urban League is a Red
Feather Agency concerned with

Stan Musial Nav
Quit Baseball AT
End of Season

NEW YORK, IA combina-
ton of circumstances has discou-
ragged Stan Musial to such an ex-
tent that he seriously is thinking
of quitting baseball at the end of
the season.
Although the ST. Louis Cardi-
nails all-time great would not
comment it has been learned that
the National Leagues greatest
player of his generation is de-
pressed over recent events rang
ing from the trading of his closest
friend Red Schoendienst, to his
shift from the outfield to first
base.
1t is not easy to quit when
you're earning $4,000 a year but
this factor will not act as de
torrent to the National Leagues
highest salaried star once he
makes up his mind. Stan is fin
ancially secure thanks to his
healthy earnings from baseball,
his restaurant and banking bust
nesses and other wise invest
ments.
Should Musial quit, he will lose
an opportunity to break Gus
Suhr's National League iron-man
record of 822 consecutive games.
A six time batting champion with
a .342 career average and a .538
league record smuggling perform
ance, this three-time most valu-
able player has performed in 679
consecutive games and he has
1858 hits, still 1872 hits
shy OF his coveted goal

Canadians Misunderstood
Proposal To Build
B.C.-tO-AlaSka Highway

PRINCE GEORGE, BIC, R =
Education Minister Ray Williston
said here yesterday a statement
by Highways Minister P. A. Gag
lardi that he did not know of
a proposal to build highway
through British Columbia to Al
aska was the result of a mis-
understanding"
Gaglardi's statement referred
to an announcement by Governor
Frank Heintzleman that a new
highway to Alaska, running along
what is known as Route A, was
being studied.
Al Anderson, head of the Alas
ka Resources Development Board,
expressed surprise that Gaglardi
did not know of the proposed
highway.
ALASKA needs the access to the
interior that construction of such
a road would provide, and l am
sure that the people of British
Columbia are equally anxious to
see the interior opened up" he
said
Speaking on the proposed Can
ada-U.S. development of hydro
electric power in northern British
Columbia and the Yukon, Ander-
son said, IF British Columbia
cannot develop this power alone
and Alaska offers a means of
assistance in this development,
then the area IS open for mutual
cooperation.
1T would be tragic to see this
great potential lie idle Just be-
cause we fail TO get together

Idea Of Our Thinking
This may, perhaps, give you
some idea Of our thinking and
our urges in India. For. above
all, we believe in liberty. equality,
the dignity of the individual and
the freedom Of the human spirit.
Because Of this, we are firmly
welded to the democratic way
of life and. in our loyalty to
this cause. we will not falter.
Nearly seven years ago. we con-
stituted our country into re-
public and gave to ourselves a
constitution based on these prin-
ciples, and guaranteeing the fun
damental human rights of free
dom of the individual, equality
of man and the rule of law.

lis a country stepped in history
and tradition, with a civilization
nearly as old as recorded time.
and a culture nourished on its
own soil and blended happily
with those of other peoples and
of other lands. This year, we
celebrated in India and in many
other countries, the 2,500th an
niversary of a very great son of
India. the Buddha, who gave us
a message of peace and COM
passion.
Messengers of Peace
Through the centuries. India
has preached and practiced
liberation and understanding
and has enriched human
thought, art and literature,
philosophy and religion. Her
sons iourneyed far and wide,
Drawing the perils of land and
sea, not with thoughts of con-
quest or domination, but as
messengers of peace or engaged
in the commerce of ideas as well
as of her beautiful products.
During these millennia of his
tory, India has experienced both
good and i'll but. throughout her
chequered history, she has re-
membered the message of peace
and tolerance. In our own time,
this message was proclaimed by
our great leader and master,
Mahatma Gandhi. who led us to
freedom by peaceful and yet eff
fective action on a mass scale.
Nine years ago, we won our
independence through a blood
less revolution, in conditions of
honor and dignity both to our
selves and to the erstwhile rul-
ers OF our country. We in India
today are children of this revo-
luton and have been conditioned

our state Assemblies. These cleo
tons were organized on a vast
scale by an authority free of
government control, so as to
insure that they were free and
impartial. Early next year, we
are going to have another gen.
eral election in which 200 million
voters are entitled to participate.
You will realize the vastness of
these elections when I tell you
that there will be IL million
polling booths. so that no voter
need have to go far to give his
vote.
AS you know. India is a big
