ON STAGE
BY WILLIAM MORRIS

Question: It has been called
to my attention that the grass
strip between sidewalk and
curb is called the devil strip"
in Akron and vicinity. I am told
that the phrase is used no place
else in the United States, I'M

migrating Akronites. Do you
know If this Is true-and how
the term originated?-Mrs. A.

this phrase devil strip" is

To Pass Million Mark

Golden State Mutual Life In

come for 1861 passed the 81 mil
lion mark for the first time in the
company's history.
According to Norman B. Hous-
ton, the company's secretary and

activity of the firm has been "very
profitable"
During 1862" he reported, 1--WE
are instituting measures which
will provide an even greater in
crease in rate of growth in this
function and which will enable us
at the same time to maintain the

lion dollars in 1855 and rose 49
percent in six years to 81, ,O20, ,447

Views Mississippi At

New York = NAACP Executive
Secretary Roy Wilkins said here
this week that Mississippi is now
down to her last rickety legal
support for racial segregation in
travel namely, the breach of the
peace subterfuge used so care
fully in the Freedom Rider cases. "
This was his comment following
the United States Supreme Court
decision of Feb. 26 instructing a
Federal district court in MissiSs-
ippi to rule on the states Jim
Crow travel laws which had been
challenged by lawyers of the Ma
ACP Legal Defense and Educa-
tional Fund, Inc, on behalf of three
Negro citizens of Jackson, Miss.
The High Court cited three MA
ACP cases on which it based its
blunt conclusion: "We have set
tied beyond question that no state
may require racial segregation of
Interstate or intrastate transpor-
tation facilities. The question
is no longer open.
Commented Mr.. wilkins: "The
Courts handwriting is very plain
and if Mississippi authorities were
graceful they would dismiss a |
Freedom Rider cases without wait
ing for the findings in some one
Of them now on appeal"
