And here's what started the heat wave!

Last month more Americans bought Fords than in any
November in history. The blazing success Of the long Ford
line was end-to-end, all across the country and up and
down it, too. Everywhere the people focked into
their Ford Dealers and bought smart new Falcons, and
the new Falcon Squire, the glittering swift GaIaxies, the
famous Ford Station Wagons and the hot Thunderbirds.
And they poured in to see and buy up the brand-new
Fairlanes just introduced. There are four magic
reasons-why behind the smashing success of the long
Ford line for 1862. First Of all is utterly modern styling,
the fresh crisp lines that are now being SO widely copied
by other car-makers, the smart look that dominates the
industry. Second is absolute power in eleven kinds Of
engines, giving you anything you could want in engine

portionately high number of Ne
gro youth who. fail to return to
school each year. This creates
serious problems for NAACP and
Negro leaders," Mr.. Wright said,
''who are trying to break down
discrimination barriers in the field
df employment. When Negroes
are not adequately prepared for
the jobs that are being opened to
them, it makes it more difficult
to overcome discrimination in en-
ployment. That is the reason for
this particular drive"
Mr.. Wright says their organiza-
ton is also attempting to inform
the youth of the rapid expansion of
new jobs for Negroes outside the
traditional field, such as teaching
positions, the ministry and medi-
cine.
''It becomes a great deal more
important, Mr.. Wright informed
us, ''that we do something among
Negro parents to stimulate high
er academic achievement and wild
er aspiration. Many Negroes fee
there is no point in trying to de-
velop their talents, thinking they
won't have an opportunity to use
the training because of their race.
Mr.. Wright pointed out that there
is need for more Negroes in the
field of law, science, international
law and diplomacy and technology
There is, he feels, a great need tc
encourage Negroes to train fol
higher fields of employment.

New Rochelle Decision Significant

cision were to place the operation
of the schools in the hands of the
Federal courts or a single judge. !"
Mrs. Motley, reflecting on the
case, said ''some New Rochelle
officials will be outraged because
they feel the BROWN decision
should be applied only to the South.
What the court has said, in effect,
is that they are doing the same
thing the South does.
Tuesdays decision means that
in the North, as well as the South,
where there has been official ac-
ton to create or preserve school
segregation, such action will have
to be considered in the light of
the New Rochelle case"
continued on galley 2
New Rochelle's Lincoln School,
which is now "a percent Negro,
has long been the subject of dis
pute. Mrs. Motley noted that in
1880 a Negro dentist, Dr. Leon
Scott, complained in a letter to
Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt
that the Lincoln School district
was gerrymandered to include an
overwhelming racial majority of
Negro students.
This situation was accentuated
by a school board policy which al
lowed white children who lived i'll
the Lincoln district to transfer to
other schools if they wished. When,
in 1949, complaints by Negro par
ents and the NAACP increased,
the permissives transfer policy was
abolished.
Negro, groups continued to pro-
test, however, for the new policy
did not alleviate the virtually all
Negro character of the Lincoln
School. The School Board called
in several experts, including DR..
Dan w. Dodson of Columbia Uni
versity. The Dodson Report, COM
pleted in 1857, confirmed the ex-
istence of racial imbalance in New
Rochelle schools. The Dodson Re-
port, said the Circuit Court, twas
a most comprehensive statement
! of the problem and an admonition
to the Board to make a broadly
based attack upon the evil of seq
regation
The Board, in 1857, proposed to
rebuild the Lincoln School on its
present site. Negro groups oppos-
ed this plan vigorously, arguing
that it would freeze in segre-
cation in the Lincoln district.
Nevertheless, the proposal to
build a new Lincoln School was
carried before a referendum vote

NAACP Stay-In
Seeks Passage
Housing Law

Madison, Wis. - Undeterred by
failure of the State Legislature to
act on a pending fair housing bill,
the Wisconsin State NAACP pre-
pared this weekend to continue its
24-hour, seven-day-a-week vigil in
the State Capitol here until the
Legislation is enacted or the Legis-
lature adjourns.
Lloyd A. Barbee, president of
the State Conference of NAACP
Branches and director of the stay
in demonstration, reports that
nearly 300 Negro and white NAA.
CP members, acting in 16-perSon
relays, have participated in the
demonstration since it was initi-
ated on July 81.
Bearing a tag reading: Were
Here for Wisconsin Human Rights
Legislation" a demonstrator is
stationed at each of the 16 columns
in the Capitol's high ceilinged ro-
tunda. They are relieved period
ically by new group.
Objective of the demonstration is
enactment of a bill introduced by
Assemblyman Coggs of Milwau-
kee banning racial or religious dis
elimination in the sale, lease or
rental of housing or other real
property. The bill provides pen
alities of not less than 500 nor
more than $500, or Imprisonment
for not more than six months, OF
both.
ALI participants in the stay-ir
are given Instructions about its
purpose and methods. ''Partici'
pants are expected to conduct
themselves with quiet dignity,
the Instructions read. They should
refrain from loud talking and ex,
cessive moving around while they
are engaged in the Capitol stay-in.
Speak quietly, if at all; sit or stand
straight at all times; use chairs OF
camp stools if available; other
wise sit on the floor or stand. When
entering or leaving the Capitol
check with the NAACP officer"

New York - Last weeks i'm.
portant decision in the New Roc.
helle, N. Y. school segregation
case, won 2-to-1 in the U. S. Court
of Appeals by NAACP Legal De
fense Fund attorneys, was hailec
today as extremely significant
by Constance Baker Motley anC
Paul B. Zuber, who represented
the Negro plaintiffs.
Tuesdays decision was the re-
suit of a 3O-year struggle" said
Mrs. Motley. 1T means that the
Supreme Court school desegrega.
ton ruling of 1854 will be applied
with equal vigor to northern as
we'll as southern school boards.
1.-The School Board has already
lost twice." observed Mr.. Zuber,
who argued the case for the Negro
parents when the suit was initi-
ated last fall. "The Board may
appeal to the Supreme Court, but
we feel the law has been estab,
lished."
The Court of Appeals. on Aug
ust 2, upheld the ruling of Federal
Judge Irving R. Kaufman Of Jan
uary "a, that the New Rochelle
Board of Education had, prior to
1949, deliberately created its Lin
[coln School as an all-Negro school,
and since then ''has been motivat-
ed by tthe purposeful desire Of
maintaining the Lincoln School as
| a racially segregated school"
The School Board has been or,
bdered to initiate a desegregatior
plan by September, 1861, which will
lmake it possible for parents in the
Lincoln School district to trans.
lfer their children to schools in 9th
Ter districts.
| The appeal to the Circuit Court
lby the School Board was from
Judge Kaufman's decision, a n {
from the desegregation plan which
he had ordered.
Judge Joseph E. Clark, repre-
senting the majority in the Circuit
|Court opinion, held that the
lpresent "a percent Negro enroll
ment at the Lincoln School goes
beyond mere racial imbalance
and approximates closely the
harmful conditions condemned ir
the BROWN case. 2
1t called Judge Kaufman's de.
segregation plan noteworthy for
its moderation. l."
| A strong dissent was registered
Iby Circuit Court Judge Leonard
P. Moore. He stated in his dis
senting opinion that the effect and
implications of the lower court de-

group of Negro parents, represent
ed by the local NAACP chapter,
then appealed to the State Com
missioner of Education, but the
appeal was rejected.
In the Fall Of 1860, a federal
District Court suit was instituted
by the parents of eleven Negro
children who refused to send their
children to the Lincoln School.
Judge Kaufman'S decision OF
January "a, and his desegregation
decree of May 81, will make it
possible for these parents to send
their children to other public
schools in New Rochelle.

must find new avenues to
maintain a distinctive image
in the consumers eye.
@. PORTER: Is this why
Woolworth decided to 60 into
the low-profit department store
field?
A. KIRKWOOD: Our studies
of this type of operation dis
closed that there is a great
deal of consumer interest in
it. Most consumers apparently
are willing to dispense with
the customary services and
frills in return for cash
savings.
There also will be 40 per cent
more adults between 20 and 80
years of age, many more mar
riages and a large increase in
the number of people 55 and
older by 1870. These two groups
the first with tight budgets,
the latter with fixed incomes
must strech their dollars and
this can be achieved through
low-profit merchandising.
For 80 years we've demon
strated the success possible in
the low-price retail field. Now
We'll apply the same techniques
and know-how to WooIco de-
partment stores in the higher
price field. Well expand our
variety stores, and in the

has benefited the consumer.
The intense competition has
been a vital force helping to
hold down prices. In addition,
the consumer can get a greater
selection of goods, shopping
convenience and comfort under
one roof. Out of this revolu-
ton have come greater accessi-
bility to parking. faster service
through self service and check
out counters, better merchan-
disc displays and attractive
new store decorS and longer
shopping hours.
@. PORTER: What is the
long term outlook for retailing
A. KIRKWOOD: Fluid as the
retailing field is, I believe we
can look forward to many years
of growth and improvement.
More automation in retailing
is on the way.
Stores are going to become
larger and with a far greater
assortment of merchandise un-
der one roof than we know
today. In fact, it is not incon-
ceivable for a store of the fu-
ture to carry everything from
airplanes to automobiles to
prefabricated homes to zithers.
However, as progress is made
and different retailing fields

Congress itself determines"
There is a common miscon-
ception that residents of Wash
ington pay no taxes and un-
usually low taxes, Mr.. Thomp-
son said. Actually, residents pay
85 to 80 per cent of its costs
and their total per capita local
tax burden is neither the high
est in the Nation nor the low
est, and is comparable to that
in adjoining states. he pointed
out.
While the Federal payroll
contributes substantially to the
area economy, Washington is
denied the privilege of heavy
industry which means so much
to the economic base elsewhere,
he added.

Retailing Revolution
BY SYLVIA PORTER

Much is being written and
said these days about the So
called retailing revolution. Just
what this is and what it means
to consumers is analyzed by
Robert c. Kirkwood, president
and chief executive officer of
the F. w. Woolworth Co., oldest
and largest of the variety store
chains. This is the second in a
series of three interviews with
leading industrialistS.
@. PORTER: Exactly what
is this retailing revolution?"
A. KIRKWOOD: The retail
ing revolution is an accelera-
ton of a trend toward mer-
chandise overlapping among
retailers which began before
World War II.
In the late '30s, grocery
stores began expanding into
