Mining Engineer
 Pays Visit to Nome

MT. J. Knapp of San Francisco visited Nome on Saturday at the special request of his close friend, Jafet Lindeberg, one of the three founders of Nome.
 MT. Knapp, who is a mining engineer and mined in Canada during the gold strike days, has known Jafet Lindeberg and other Alaskan operators since those days.
 Since he was making a trip to visit some of his claims, Jafet urged him to visit Nome ESQ he would know something of the place they talked about so much. ]"
 Knapp states that Lindeberg, who is now ST, is a very active man and interested in the pro duction of his claims in Nevada of bentonite. Bentonite, he explain ed, is an earthly substance which is blended with northern Cali fornia sulphur into soil con- ditioner, which has proved to be very valuable.
 He also brought greetings from Joe Sullivan, Bluff mining man, who would have enjoyed making the trip had his health permitted. Accompanying Knapp as far as Fairbanks was another old Alas kan, Walter Johnson.
 Ldndeberg's friends have help ed him make recording of the story of the actual finding of gold at Nome and copy of this re- cording has been promised for old timers here to enjoy.

US. Senofor Cooper
From Ky. Introduces
Civil RIGHTS Bill

Washington (ANP) - Senator
John Sherman Cooper (R., KY
introduced a civil rights bill last
week which would authorize the at
torney general OF the United States
to intervene in school desegrega-
ton cases instituted by individuals.
This bill, said Cooper, would
go precisely and directly to the
immediate problem before our
country whether the Congress
will meet its responsibility Of en-
forcing the Brown decision.
It is whether we, will support
the Constitution, the Courts, law
and order, and do our duty to
achieve the promise of the United
States that all of its citizens shall
have equal political and Constitu-
tional rights"
Cooper declared that I'VE have
to meet what is both a moral and
a Constitutional crisis. Equal pro-
lection of the laws-in this case
that children shall not be discrim-
mated against in their right tc
enter public Schools-is guaranteed
by the Constitution in its 14tt
Amendment. The bill I have Of.
fered goes directly to this CHIEF
issue.
The measure was offered BY
amendment TO the 1860 Civil
Senator Cooper last year as ar
Rights Act, and after his testimony
before the Platform Committee
was included in the Republican
platform.
In 1857 the Congress provided
an even stronger remedy in the
case Of voting rights, Senator
Cooper pointed out. That Act per,
mitted the Attorney General moi
only to intervene on behalf Of in,
dividuals already a party to a sui
before a United States Court, but
also to institute suits in the nam,
Of the United States for persons
whose right to vote has been den
led by reason of race or color.

Atlanta Mayor Says:
Southern Cities
Lose Conventions
Because Of Jimcro

Atlanta (ANP) - It appears
that in some major cities in the
South, Atlanta in this particular
instance, some leaders are awaken
ing to the realization that segrega-
ton is often a costly and impracti-
cal system.
Mayor william B. Hartsfield,
addressing the Northside Kiwanis
club, declared last week that seq
regation in hotels, restaurants and
other facilities is hurting Atlanta s
development as a convention city
and international center.
He said that in reply to those
who want to make the new airport
an international airport" he has
been saying you've got to be In
ternational people before you have
an international airport.
We've got to make up our
minds what we want to do about
it," the mayor asserted
Segregation questions, he con-
tinued ARE going to loom heavily
in the years to come, and it's COM
ing to the point where it hits the
cash register and the city and
national policy"
In every instance Of desegrega-
ton, Hartsfield said, some people
have predicted riots, bloodshed
and intermarriage" when Ne
groes were added to the police
force, when golf courses were de-
segregated and when segregation
ended at the libraries and the air
port restaurant.
About nine-tenths of these
things they predict never happen"
he told the Kiwanians.
