Affects Travel Facilities
The large number of peo-

spend on business excursions
is affecting the construction
of hotels, motels and other
travel facilities. Why build
places for budget travellers
when there's such a demand
from expense-account travel
ers?
The newsletter of the Ma

Organizations says. THE cost
of travel is the one grave dam
ger. 1t could become prohibit
tive for the average man, who
constitutes the mass market.
The warning signs are out. Too

erect twenty 100000 houses
on ten-acre estates and lease
them to corporations as "hos-

entertained or jaded executives
restored.
Each house would have from

COURT TO VOID
LOUISIANA INJUNCTION

New York, Oct. 22.-Robert l..
Carter, general counsel of the Ma
tional Association for the Advance
ment of Colored People, today an
nounced two actions filed on Oct.
81 in the United States District
Court in New Orleans designed to
lift the state-imposed ban on
NAACP activity in Louisiana.
In an effort to void the injunc-
ton handed down by a state court
on Oct. 9 banning NAACP meet
ings and other activities in the
state. the NAACP counsel filed a
petition seeking removal Of the
case to the federal court. The
petition cited action pending in
the federal court to invalidate the
1924 and-Ku Klux Khan statute
under which the NAACP was or
iginally banned in 1856.
AS further grounds for removal
of the case to the federal court,
the petition cited an Association
suit also pending in the federal
court challenging the constitution
atty of a 1858 state law requiring
local groups affiliated with ma
tional organizations to file af-
fidavits that none of the officers
of the parent organizations is a
member of any society listed as
subversive by the House I'm
