Pickets Homes of

The Congress of Racial

District Commissioners To-

an effort to persuade the Com
missioners to sign an anti-dis-
elimination order for housing.
We do not expect that this
will cause Commissioner To-

ing and sign this order" said
Julius Hobson, president of
CORE. but we do want. on the
part of CORE, to express our
dissatisfaction with the inertia
OF the Commissioners in this
action"
Fifteen pickets marched in
front of Commissioner To-
briner's house at 6100 Thirty
third street NV. carrying signs
asking such questions as Gould

your desire for fair housing"

Mr.. Tobriner commented
This group or any other has

Gen. Clarke was not at his

DILEMMA FOR PRINCIPALS
School StockpiIing Gets Nowhere

pile enough supplies for her
thousand pupils. 80
There's nothing we can do,
she said. Where would we ever
get that kind of money!"
She added that she thought
this was a problem to be set
tied on a city-wide basis rather
than being left to the individ-
ual principals. Perhaps money
scheduled for school construc-
ton could be used, she sug-
gested.
After ALL" she added, 1--WE
won't need new buildings If we
don't have any children"
Estimates of the cost of
stocking a 14-day supply of
survival biscuits, water, toilet
facilities and other emergency
equipment have ranged from IS
to SO a pupil, depending on
what kind of price break the
schools can get on supplies.
Most principals seemed to be
using so cents a day per pupil
as a rough rule of thumb.
Fifty EIGHT OF the city's
schools are sufficiently sturdy
to be qualified as shelters and
to be eligible for Federal
stockpile aid. But most of the
city's schools do not qualify
for such aid, so any stock
piling is up to the principals.
How TO Begin?
The principal of one large
high school said he hadn't
taken any concrete steps to
carry out the superintendent's
order because Il just don't
know how to do it,"
THE whole thing leaves me

ent help in stockpiling the
schools. -
Perhaps indicative of the
principals reaction to the prob
lem was the fact that, in some
of the schools, the sheet was
not sent out until several days
after it had been received and
one of the principals said she
hadn't read it herself.
None of the principals said
she had yet received any parent
reaction to the superintendent
proposals.
A prompt. negative reaction
came, however, from the Dis
trict Congress of Parents and
Teachers in a letter to the Dis
trict Commissioners last week
1t said that money for sup
plies sis not a parental re-
sponsibility and is clearly the
responsibility of the city
government"
No Decision
One proposal still under con-
Sideration is the use of schools
for storage of Department oil
Agriculture SURPRISES. This was
discussed at a meeting between
Agriculture and schools officials
Tuesday, but no decision was
reached. Supt. Hansen said the
talks were preliminary" and
that many problems would have
to be worked out If this method
OF supplying the schools were
attempted.
Mr.. Hansen said he was still
strongly convinced that some
supplies should be stockpiled
in the schools. His department
is shopping around, he said,
to get the best price on the
supplies so they can be bought
by the principals II and when
the money has been raised.

The fervor TO stock the city's
schools with survival supplies,
stimulated by the Cuban crisis,
seems TO be fading fast.
A week ago. School Supt
Carl F. Hansen told the city'S
school principals that it was
up to them to raise the money
and buy the supplies needed
to keep their pupils alive fol-
two weeks If the city should be
attacked.
The Star has called a num-
Der of principals to ask how
they are progressing with fund
raising and stockpiling. The
reaction ranged from a busy
appearance of compliance with
the order to equally busy foot
dragging.
Do Nothing Notice
Many of the principals
seemed to feel that it wa!

cratic faction at the polls.
Besides sweeping Republicans
and conservative Democrats
into office, the vote also shat
tered the illusion that the
female politician couldn't be
beaten in the county.
There's a great movement
afoot to get something done, y
one political leader said yester-
day, land the first thing that
came to mind was that some
of those women have to CO."
Some Women Gone
Actually, "some of those
women" have already gone.
Tuesdays election toppled the
prestige of the county's women
politicians when Mrs. Stella
Werner was turned out of the
County Council after IL years
of service, and State Senator
Margaret c. Schweinhaut was
soundly defeated in her bid for
a new term.
1t appeared today that some
disgruntled party leaders would
press for the resignation from
the Central Committee of Mrs.
Alice Hostetler, Mrs. Stella AL
liSon, who is Mrs. Werner's
daughter, and Frank i. Hewitt.
If this maneuver is success
full. the two liberal women end
Mr.. Hewitt, a conservative
would be sacrificed SO that the
party apparatus could be re-
reorganized along moderate
lines.
On the other hand, some
men in the liberal faction who
want to expand the Central
Committee from seven to II
members in order to "forestall
any more drastic action" like
moves to force the resignation
of Mrs. Brown and her three
liberal committee members.
mo Intention to Resign"
Mrs. Brown said yesterday
she "had no intention of re-
signing. just because things are
getting a little rough"
Mrs. Brown, Mrs. Werner
and Mrs. Schweinhaut we're all
leaders of the party's liberal
faction, which failed to elect
anyone of its members Tues
day The, only Democrats
elected were conservatives in
dorSed by the County-Above-
Party Committee.
Amid the activity to "do
something about the Central
Committee" yesterday, one
long time Democratic leader
had this to say:
They should have gotten rid

! a personal survival kit to be
kept in the students locker.
But he said he could foresee
all sorts of practical problems
even If the school should sur
vive a nuclear attack in which
there are going to be an awful
lot of bricks flying around
He asked, for example:
What precautions should be
taken to be sure that each
student has his survival kit
so they wouldn't, be fighting
for food?
Would the school need armed
guards to keep out people con-
taminated with radiation OF
people who we're simply hungry
and thirsty?
$500 for Supplies
This thing is a mess" he
added. 1T defies the magma
ton to know what to do. We've
been given a lot of respon-
sibility but no authority"
The magnitude of the fl
nancial problem faced by the
principals was illustrated by
the remarks of one elementary
school principal. She said she
was proud that her school hac
