THE PROPOSED ExPRESSWAY

There is plenty of discussion going about
Miamis proposed $1930O0,000 expressway. This of
course will mean displacement of many of people who
live between NV 21s street the north and NV 5th
street the south.
The trouble is where will these people go?
Frank Kelly, director of Miami's Stun Clearance De-
partmen said survey shows that about 1854 Negroes
will be displaced because 1924 housing units will have to
be removed The survey revealed that 538 units
under construction in the central district and in Liberty
City, with additional 104 units being built in the
ty providing housing for 2317 Negroes with con-
struction expected to start shortly.
= This would leave about $500 to be housed.
Surely Of these displaced people will be home
owners What about them? 1t takes poor practi-
cay lifetime to home. 1t is certainly serious
matter for him to have to break and quit unless he
can find another piece of land where he may build
There is plenty of land around but the fact is it is
not for sale to Negroes
If the expressway along the river we believe
one suggested the already small space occupied by
Negroes would not have to be taken from them.

Croat Day Committee
Set To Renew Annual
Tuq.of.War Journeys

Pittsburgh, Pa. - The Gro
atian Day Committee several
years ago undertook to stage
a Tug-of-War match at its
annual event in kennyWood
Park.
1t didn't materialize be-
cause of lack of interest
which resulted in insufficient
competition. This year, the
Croatian Day Committee, at
a recent meeting intimated
that they would be receptive
to a Tug-of-War finals at the
1857 Croatian Day in Kenny
wood Park.
Elimination matches could
be held in various sections at
various lodge outings and
would certainly prove an in
terest boon. Nj c m b e + S h i p
would be limited in number
and personnel to strictly c.
F. L. members.
Neither we here at the De-
partment who make ourselves
available to application and
correspondence on this mat
ter nor the Croatian Day
Committee are interested in
any other competition.
For the present, the sud-
den defeat system of elimina-
ton would be used, with the
finalist teams meeting in
kennyWood Park Saturday,
! August 81, 1857, a C.F.U.
trophy going to the winners,

consecutive for permanent
