MAINTAINING OUR r
THE CONDITION OF our parks and !

THE CONDITION OF our parks and Fairgrounds is
nothing short Of disgraceful, and there is no reason what
ever why this condition should continue. Earlier this year
attention was called to this state of affairs, and the fact that.
the shift Of responsibility had been partly the cause, but still
nothing was done.
WITH CHRISTMAS approaching, with hundreds Of
visitors expected, it seems as if the cleanup Of our parks and
grounds would be most important. Which community in the.
world does not want to put its best foot forwardp Why, then,
not have something done? Many of our Fairgrounds are not
fit for anything, and the parks are in such shape that they
repeI rather than attract citizens and visitors.
PERHAPS DEPARTMENT Of Education, which
now IS responsible for the maintenance Of parks and play
grounds might renew and redouble its efforts to cleaning up
and improving in general the condition of our parks and
grounds.
IN THIS CONNECTION a sore thumb sticking out for
everyone to seek-and feels the band stand on the whark
The wharf and everything connected with i, and parHcu-
larly the band stand, should be the show place Of this town
1t should become the center Of civic pride and attraction,
and every effort should be made to see that this particular
public area is representative Of the community.
AT ONE time definite suggestions will be
made for improving the band stand, but in the meantime we
appeal to the Governor and the Senate for a special appro-
priation to repair this landmark, and make sure that this
remains a part Of the things we cherish.

BATON ROUGE, La, May Is
tR.--Gov. Robert Kennon said
yesterday the woman, registrar OF
voters of Webster Parish, under
fire from pro-segregation groups,

The Webster Parish police
jury unanimously requested the

She has resigned, effective
today.
However, Gov. Kennon and 1t.
Gov. c. E. Barham, two of the

The White Citizens Councils

Mrs. Clement had failed to en-
force voter qualification restric-
lions requiring registrants to
read and interpret portions of
either the State or Federal Con-
stitution.
The requirement has been ig-
nored over the most of the State.
1t was originally designed to curb
Negro voting.
After criticism, Mrs. Clement
applied the law uniformly to
both races and disqualified "a
