WASHINGTON - AS members
of the House OF Representatives
opened debate on the Fed
eral Aid to School Construc-
ton bill here this week, the Ma
tional Association for the. Ad-
vancement of Colored People in
tenSified its drive for adoption of
the Powell anti-segregation
amendment to the bill.
The NAACP-Sponsored amend
ment, introduced by Rep. Adam
Clayton Powell 3D., N.Y. and sup
ported by other liberal congress-
men, would deny federal funds to
school districts which refuses to
comply with the u. S. Supreme
Court ban against racial segrega-
ton in public education. Although
President Eisenhower at his press
conference on Jan. IS, again adj
vised against the amendment.
there appeared to be strong sup
port for it in the. House.
In a letter to Congressman,
NAACP Executive Secretary Roy
wilkins called the amendment
both geTmane and necessary"
and urged its passage. He pointed
to recent announcements and
legislative actions which he said
plainly" indicated the intention
of some of the southern states "to
defy the Supreme Court ruling"
In these circumstances, the
NAACP spokesman asserted,
Congress ought not to adopt any
legislation which would permit
these states and school districts
to share in the distribution Of fed
eral funds for the construction OF
public schools"
Meanwhile in Washington,
Clearance Mitchell, director of the
Associations Washington bureau,
circulated among congressman
copies of a letter he had received
from Harold c. Hunt, Under Sec
rotary OF the Dept. of Health,
Education and Welfare, in which
Mr.. Hunt expressed the opinion
that "any decision to withhold
federal grants because of the con-
tinuation Of some degree of seq
regated education should neces-
sarily be based upon a court de-
termination
This position taken by the
HEW Dept, Mr.. Mitchell asserts,
shows that Congress must act
to halt the incredible situation
prevailing at present in which

CHALLENGES SCHEME OF
FOUR GOVERNORS

NEW YORK - The anti-school
indignation plans formulated by
four Dixie governors meeting in
Richmond, Va, this week will be
resisted by the NAACP, Roy Will
kins, executive secretary, said
here today in letters to each Of
the governors.
In their Richmond meeting,
Cows. ]. p. Coleman of MisSissip-
pi; Marvin Griffin of Georgia;
Thomas B. Stanley of Virginia
and George Bell Zimmerman of
South Carolina agreed to recon-
mend to their respective legiSla-
ture: (1) adoption Of a resolution
of interpoSition; (2) a request
that Congress be called uoon "to
protect the states and their people
against present and future en-
croachment by the Central Gov
eminent; and (3) enactment of
laws to protect the states "Sov-
ereignty and the rights of its
people"
Centering his attack upon the
states rights proposal, Mr.. Will
kins told the governors that
nothing in the Constitution as
signs to the states the right to
abridge in any manner the con-
stitutional civil rights of the in
dividual. On the contrary, the
Constitution protects these rights
against encroachment by the
states"
The NAACP leader further
charged that in each Of the four
states "the basic rights and privi-
leges of Negro citizens have for
generations been unconstitution-
ally curtailed by actions of your
respective legislatures. Now that
the Supreme Court has directed
an end to such encroachments up
on individual civil rights in pub
lie education and recreation, you
are seeking, purportedly in the
name of the people of your re-
spective states, ways and means
of continuing your unconstitut-
ional practices"
The suppression. of the Negro
vote in Mississippi and its cur
tailment in the other states were
cited as evidence of the fact that
Negroes have no voice in making
the laws of the states which you
represent"
Referring to the claim of the
governors that they spoke in the
name of the people of their states,
Mr.. Wilkins asked: (Which
people? Certainly not the disfran-
chised Negroes and apparently
not all OF the White people. Your
schemes for circumventing the
Suoreme Court ruling have been
decried by leading churchmen and
various UNCONVENTIONAL groups,
by organized labor, by educators
and publicists, by all people OF
whatever race or faith who rea-
lie that democracy is indivisible."
The colored people in the four
states want their constitutional
rights and will contend for them
with all the resources at their
command" Mr.. Wilkins declared.
"In this struggle they have the
backing of the u. S. Constitu-
ton and the full support of the
NAACP and of all the people
who believe that ours is a land
of equal rights and equal oppor-
tunitieS."

The company believes the cribs
have proved to be the most salts

The cribs are made available at
shippers locations for loading and
sealing, in which form they are
then transported to destination.
These are now employed in cargo
movement to all areas in Alaska
from Ketchikan in southeastern
Alaska to Nome in northwestern
Alaska, including the rail belt in

The CARDS are g. 5" long, A. 3"

to permit their being handled by
fork lift trucks from side or end.
These are used between Pier 40 in
Seattle and Alaska docks, partic-
ularly for highly pilferable cargo.
Both cribs and CARDS are han
died by fork lift trucks on the
dock and aboard ship. Shippers

For some time it had been
known in a general way that re-
suits were being obtained from a

in marking and packaging re-
quirements and better out-turn at

COLDER WINTERS AHEAD

Another weather expert has predicted that the
next half century will bring the United States colder
weather. moisture and what he terms "old-fash-
ioned winters
It might be remembered that only few years ago
the prevailing belief of most weather experts that
enjoying a period of warmer weather and
trend toward warmer winters However, in the last
year many weather experts have predicted just the
opposte-that entering period of colder
winters.
The latest prediction take note of is based on
a study of sunspots and goes back several hundred
years for substanaton of the forecast that between
1860 and 1000 winters will be colder and more snow
and rain experienced
If this ongterm forecast is true, it will mean fewer
hurricanes for northern coasts, fewer droughs rise
in the water table, in many lakes, such the Great
Salt Lake, and reversal of the recent trend toward
less ice in both glaciers and arctic ice fields.

THE 1857 CARS

While most people are expecting 1857 automobiles
to be revolutionary the probability is they will repre-

It is true that manufacturers planning series
of new features for 1857 models including reporedly)
aluminium engine blocks, fuel injection systems, new
type brakes and glass tops But all these features
will not be offered any model, andft is almost
certain that 1857 models will not represent many revo-

The opinion of many buyers-that 1857 models
will be radically changed-actuay makes 1856 models
on todays market good buy. Because some prospec-
