in his new responsibility.
In the entire United States there
are fewer than 20 Negro judges
despite the fact that the Negro
population OF the country is one
tenth OF the total,
In most instances where Ne
groes have been appointed to the
bench they have been numerically
strong as voters In the large
northern urban centers and have
received appointments as purely
political rewards,
Here in Minnesota the Negro
vote is not a numerical factor al
though II has been proven that
thousands OF white voters identity
themselves with the cause Of the
Negro minority issues in which
the Negro has prime interest.
One observation made "a this
reporter was that Bennett was
appointed to the bench both
because he was Negro and
In spite Of It."
Most attorneys questioned about
the appointment by this reporter
were Cagy. A white staff member
OF this paper found those not in
favor more frank. but also found
they were in the great minority.
No attorney would admit 20 this
newspaper on the other hand dis
| agreement with Freeman's selec-
ton OF Bennett. on the other hand
some Of those questioned by the
white statter admitted opposition
or reservations, Neither this re-
porter or the white reporter found
single suggestion that Bennett
was not qualified by reason OF
training or experience
Those city hall and court at,
taches questioned although recog,
mixing the novelty OF having q
Negro American citizen on the
bench instead Of before the bench
as plaintiff, defendant or counsel
seemed pleased az the innovation
and one OF them said, 1T should
have happened long ago.

spacious to contain two and three
times more families
We will concede that Mrs. Crump
was in error when she failed to
register a multiple dwelling. This
is the law But any implications
Of guilt attached 10 her in the
death Of her tenant beyond this
oversight must be shared by real
tors who withhold adequate hous-
ing from the Negro needs; Il must
be shared by community agitators
who maintain that the American
Way means the way Of white
( Americana; II must be shared
by city officials who cit idly by
while minority housing Is reduced
10 r1bble without replacement; II
must be shared by legislators who
fight against equitable housing for
minonties and open occupancy
which has been declared a neces-
sary attribute Of a democratic
society. These and more must
share any guilt TO be laid at the
feet Of Mrs Crump.
After years Of degeneratiOn--
a degeneration sanctioned by an
apathetic officlaldom--the stand
ards Of the present housing
code are being re-examlned. The
death Of Robert Livingston Is
being proposed as just cause for
this reappraisal.
This reporter Is in favor OF the
highest uniform standards. But
they must be uniformly enforced
standards And the raising Of such
standards must be accompanied
by a stern and realistic appraisal
OF all OF the consequences OF such
move.
Consider well the following:
/, The minority areas of both
Minneapolis and st. Paul have al
ways been substandard and sew
erely overcrowded
2. The Stun clearance policies
Of urban redevelopment have al
ready reduced the area and num-
Der of available dwelling units in
both areas.
3, The proposed Rondo-St. An
thony freeway In st, Paul is go
ing to further reduce the size and
available units in that area.
4 The proposed freeway through
south central Minneapolis will re-
duce the homes OF some 600 more
Minneapolitans to rubble.
5 To create subsidized housing
for these displaced persons alone
will serve only to relocate the
foundations of a new segregated
community.
The implications are clear. The
only relief for the pressures in
herent in the compressed and con-
gested minority housing Is the
practice of Open Occupancy. In
effect, fling wide the gates and
permit the fulfillment Of a full
and integrated democracy.

Senator Williams, Republican
Of Delaware, has blocked Senate
action on what he called a
Congressional gravy train" bill.
He said 1t would let some mem
bers Of Congress retire with a
larger pension than their pres
ent salaries.
Senator williams said yeSter-
day the measure, passed in diff
ferent form by the House,
would reduce the retirement age
Of some members and congress
sional employees to so years and
give them substantial increases
in payments if they had served
20 years in Government, five OF
these in Congress.
He demanded that the meas
ure be sent back to the Senate

Texas finally prevailed with a
motion to obtain the views Of
members Of the committee be-
fore any action is taken.
