INSTRUMENTATION HEARING ATTRACTS
LARGE SUPPORT, NO OPPOSITION
CONGRESS ASKED TO WITHHOLD
JIM CROW FUNDS

WASHINGTON, March 6 =
The National Association for
the Advancement of Colored
People has again urged Con-
greSS to withhold federal funds
for education from segregated
schools.
TeStifying before the Senate
Committee on Labor and Pub
lie Welfare here on March 5,
Clarence Mitchell, director of
the NAACP Washington Bu-
reau, cited the continuing de-
fiance of the United States Su-
preme Court ruling against seq
regation in public education by
political leaders of Alabama,
Arkansas, Georgia, Florida,
Louisiana, Mississippi, South
Carolina and Virginia.
"The question arises" he
said, "can the officials of these
states be trusted to handle any
kind of federal assistance for
the education of all of our citi-
zens without firm anti-segrega-
ton safeguards? The answer to
that question is NO :"

certain intervals for the purpose
of looking over the facilities.
Through their recommendation,
park leaders can recommend re-
creational improvements. The
following people have been ask
ed to serve on this committee:

lowing teenagers will sit with
this group at their monthly
meetings: Stanley Grimes, Ma
kline Johnson, Ruth James Nina
Johnson and Earl Pratt.
We hope by selecting this
cross section of our citizens
much good will comes out of it.
The first meeting of this group
will be Thursday, March 20, 1880
in the parks game room.
The ultimate goal of our re-
creation program is to serve
every member of the commun-
ity. We invite clubs, organiza-

use these fine facilities at East

a spirited hearing on bill at
the Arizona Capitol, as the one
on House Bill 209 that took place
Wednesday, Mar. 5th, before
two House Committees Public
Institutions and Banking and

body in Arizona was represent
ed, and so were the three large
ethnic minorities: Indians, Ne
grOeS and Mexican-AmericanS.

ocratic Parties were represented
by important Party members:

Woman, LeiSa Bronson and The
Reverend Charles Francis Par
ker, Congregational Minis ter
from Prescott who offered Pra-
yer at the Republican National
Convention at San Francisco.
Mr.. Charles F. Gritzner Of
Mesa representing the Central
Arizona Indian Committee was
the first speaker. He reported
that AZ of the So eating places
in Mesa do not discriminate.
The Better Community Council
in Mesa is 100 per cent behind
the Anti Discrimination move
ment and has been for three
years, working to eliminate dis
elimination in Mesa and has
made great progress. The only
unpleasant incident was caused
by a white Texan.
DR.. Kermin Long of the First
Methodist Church of Phoenix
spoke knowingly of his visit to
us. Army cemetery in France
where he saw graves of Ameri-
cans of all faiths and all ethnic
groups. H.B.309, he felt, is but
one of many expressions OF
brotherhood. He would, he said,
be ashamed of his adopted state
if it were among the last, to
take this forward step toward
brotherhood. So far % states
have such laws.
