Jersey City Housing
Authority Charged
With Ruce Bios

New York. - The NAACP an
nounced this week that it had filed
a complaint with Federal author
tiles citing long history of racial
discrimination by the Jersey City
Housing Authority in the occu-
pancy and management of its fed
orally assisted low rent projects.
The NAACP complaint charged
the local authority with encour-
aging and promoting segregation
within its projects and contribut-
ing to the expansion of residential
segregation in Jersey City.
Jack E. Wood, NAACP housing
secretary, stated that the concen-
tration by the Jersey City Hous-
ing Authority of Negro tenants in
three of its eight projects has
caused shift in the racial bal
ance Of the schools which serve
these projects.
THE Jersey City Board of Edu-
cation has acknowledged publicly
that the defacto segregation exists
in the local school system. That
Board, with the assistance of the
NAACP, is now charting a course
to desegregate its schools. The
close correlation between racial
percentages within the schools and
racial concentrations in project
tenancy makes it imperative that
the Jersey City Housing Authority
move promptly to desegregate its
projects"

Luxury Loving
Physicians Nobbed
For Done SnIes

Philadelphia (ANPJ-Two high
living luxury loving physicians
have been charged with the illegal
sale of large quantities of narcotics
by federal agents who seized them
last week.
The two, DR.. Eric r. Clarke, 40,
and DR.. Horace r. Johnson, So,
were accused of cooperating with
each other in the sale of the drugs.
Their bonds of $25, 900 each were
reduced to $4,000 when they
pleaded they could not raise them.
JOhnsOn's Cadillac and
Clarke's Thunderbird were inn
pounded.
U. S. Commissioner Edward J..
Furia called them worse than
murderers for breaking and fIaunt-
ing their oaths as doctors"
The arrests were made in
Clarke's office by U. S. agents
from the New York office of the
Federal Bureau of Narcotics.
Brennan said the two doctors on
April 4 sold 2,973 dolophine hydro
chloride capsules and about an
ounce and a quarter of cocaine
hydrochloride to the agents, John
Ripa and James Cockerille, for
$1,000.
Brennan said the drugs were di-
verted from legitimate medical
channels, and cost the doctors less
than $50.
Brennan said there were three
prior sales, two of which were con-
summated in Philadelphia; one of
these was a $4,000 purchase for a
similar quantity, and the others
were for smaller amounts.
Brennan said the doctors were
arrested after another sale-3, 5000
dolophine hydrochloride capsules
and two ounces of cocaine hydro
chloride for $4,000.
He said the doctors had agreed
to sell the agents similar guam
titles every two weeks from then
on.
The doctors made no state
ment at the hearing.
DR.. Clarke lives in an attractive
suburban type home with his wife
and son, and DR.. Johnson lives
in a palatial $4,000 mansion type
home with his wife and three chill
dren.
DR.. Clarke is said to be a grad
uate of Howard University Medi-
cal School and came to Philadel-
phia from Washington, D. c. For a
time his father a retired minister,
lived with him here.
DR.. johnson graduated from Vir-
ginia Union university, Richmond,

VACATION PLANS

VACATION PLANS
I cannot take long leisurely vacations
In the green peace of some high mountain crest,
But can give my often voiced vexations
A long-delayed and greatly needed rest
I cannot take trip to some far shore
But can give complaints holiday;
And little criticisms, by the score,
I'm packing up and sending far away.
The habits of being anxious, and of doubling.
And making tart remarks that need amends
I'm going to give long and peaceful outing
All summer long, and when the summer ends
I shall be glad, indeed, if they should shirk
The woeful task of going back to work.

stuck his arm out to see if it had

III MEXICO SlIy, couple VINO nae
winter spent in Monrovia, Calf
ornia, and another couple who had
spent three weeks with relatives
in Denver, Colorado and a few
who had plans for a summer trip.
One of the women who had spent
the winter in Mexico was saying,
1T is nice to leave the ice and
snow and go where it is nice and
warm, but I missed you, my
friends. There is no place like
home, believe it or not. While try
ing to get along with necessities,
you think of all of the little items
you left at home and did not ap-
preCiate. For instance, you have at
least one bathroom per family at
home. Where we stopped there are
many families for each bathroom.
That is, unless you live in a more
expensive section of town. There
you have more modern convenient
ces.
The apartments and houses are
beautiful and so is the scenery
The people are more than friendly.
They go out of their way to make
your stay pleasant. You appreci-
ate all they do, but still, you do
not speak the language and you
did come more for the rest, the
climate and to see the beauty of
Mexico, So you get your little
book" and try to tell them in
nice way that you have enjoyed
their hospitality, and you did en-
joy being shown so many lovely
places, but for a time you will
have to enjoy just relaxing, They
understood and said they would
come back later when you felt
better.
While taking a much needed rest
you thought of home. You had
thought you would be so happy
to get away and leave. it all be-
hind, but now while sitting and
basking in the warm sunshine,
you wish that some of your rela-
tives and other friends might be
enjoying your trip with you.
The neighbors' children who
keep you busy washing doorknobs
and tiny spots off your front and
back doors would be a most well
come sight right now. Time seems
to be a reminder of how much
your friends back home mean to
you. You appreciate them now
while there are miles and miles
between you. How you jumped
and started to get up when you
saw what you thought was Helen
M. coming toward you, but as she
got closer you noticed it was
someone who could have been al
most her twin.
Then you started thinking of
Helen. At home, you liked her
very much, but you did not con-
slider her one of your very best
friends. Here, far away from her
you can see all of her good points.
You know when you return home,
you will let her know how much
she means to you.
The longer you stayed away
from home the more you decided
you liked familiar faces and places.
Had you been able to get out
more, perhaps you would not have
come so close to your relatives and
friends. Not being able to get
away from your apartment very
often, you really rested and learn
ed to appreciate those whose lives
were so close to yours.
We were told if you want to see
Americans, go to some place where
they serve hamburgers, ham and
eggs or ice cream sodas.

Howard Bans AKA
Sorority Until 1865
For PhYSicdI Abuse

Washington (ANP)-The found
ing chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha
sorority, the oldest Negro social
sorority in the nation, has been
banned from the Howard universe
ty campus in the wake of charges
that chapter members physically
abused 10 pledges.
The ban stipulates that Alpha
chapter of the AKA sorority may
not apply for recognition on the
campus before September, 1865,
and that the organization has been
suspended from all campus activ-
tiles.
The decision was made by the
University-wide Committee on Stu
dent Organizations and Activities
CUCSOA) upon the recommended
ton of the executive committee of
that body.
Action by the UCSOA came af-
ter DR.. Marjorie Parker, national
basileus of the sorority, initiated
35 pledges of the chapter but none
of the 10 women who had COM
planned to the university of mis-
treatment.
The chapter already was under
18-month suspension by the UCS-
GA for physically mistreating the
10 pledges in fragrant violation"
of university regulations governing
pledging procedures, Dean of Stu
dent Armour J. Blackburn report
ed.
Blackburn and Mrs. Parker de-
clined to explain the specific
charges that were made. Neither
the university nor the sorority has
acted against Individual chapter
members.
10 Pledges Suspended
Events leading up the University
ban took this course:
Late in March, the chapter sus-
pended the 10 women from its
program leading to initiation into
the sorority.
A campus scandal broke out
when a parent of one of the As
members Of the Ivy Leaf club
pledge organization Of the AKA
sorority - sent a four-page tele-
gram to Howard President James
M. Nabrit, Jr., charging that her
daughter and nine other women
had been forced to undergo much
torment and suffering" during the
pledging.
The telegram alleged that "un-
Just and unfair treatment" had
caused her daughter and the other
young goods to walk off the pledge
line.
Pledges Testify
Later these pledges testified to
the extreme hazing. Other testi-
mony came from members of the
campus chapter. Both groups felt
that the physical hazing had been
extreme.
The 10 women repeatedly sub
the charges with few
exception before the executive
of UCSOA and Mrs.

cuperating there was that IT got
a good look at old familiar faces,
and I learned I had a lot of I'M
finished business to do in the way
of forgiVing small grudges. I had
learned to appreciate the good
qualities in all of my friends. I
saw myself as I really am" I
had a lot of doing and undoing to
do when returned.
After I had made up my mind
to see myself as I am and to see
my friends as they are and NOT
as thought they were, put them
out of my thoughts. I decided to
get well fast, so I could get home
and begin to enjoy all that I had
been taking for granted-my fam
lily, friends, home, and changing
weather, the luxuries I had con-
sidered necessities and above all,
the laughing voices of my neigh
bors little children. I even decided
it was a privilege to live in such
a place where the language is no
barrier to you but has always
been taken for granted.
Please don't think I did not en-
joy my trip because I did but 1
also learned so much about myself.
I really learned to appreciate home
and friends and to learn to see
them through their eyes, as we'll
as through mine.
Most of us long to see new
faces and places but before too
long we are anxious to get back
home and see the familiar places
and people.

the last 25 years.
Between 1912 and 1887, the
number of priests rose from
17,491 to ,649-an increase
of 14,158. Between 1897 and
1862, the number rose by 49,

THUS, THE SIZE of the in

contrast, in 1862 there are 49,

The 1862 total of seminar

Legion launches
e policy on
endorsements

NEW YORK - Inc NdtlOn'
al Legion of Decency has mi
tiated a new policy designed
to "emphasize the positive"
in evaluating motion pictures,
according tc its executive Sec
rotary.
The legion, which since
1858 has given special recon-
mendations to outstanding,
films in the Al (morally I'm.
Objectionable for alb cate
all morally unobjectionable
films for possible endorse
ment," Monsignor Thomas F.
Little said.
Msgr. Little said this means
that both Az and A-3 films
Of special merit will be eli
gible for endorsement hence
forth.
IAN Az movie is one rated
by the legion as morally I'M
Objectionable for adults and
adolescents, while an AS film
is considered unobjectionable
for adults.)
The go-ahead on the new
policy was given by the US.
Bishops at their annual meet
ing in Washington, DC, last
November, Msgr. Little said.
he SAID recommendations
have been restricted to Al
films up till now because it
was feared that endorsement
of Az or AS films might be
misinterpreted as implying a
broader approval than the
legion actually intended.
Now, however, the Monsig-
nor said, it is believed that
Catholics are sufficiently
educated" in the purposes and
functioning of the legion ito
interpret recommendations in
the spirit in which they are
given and to whom they are
directed"

The number of U. S.
Catholic priests has more
than tripled in the last
half-century, according to
figures in the Official
Catholic Directories for
the past so years.
However, the same figures
show that in the last Is years
the number of US. Catholics
has increased at a substantial.
ly faster rate than the num-
Der of priests, and the ratio
of priests to Catholics has de-
Perforated.
THE NUMBER of priests in
1862 is more than three times
greater than in 1912 - 1851
as compared with 17,491. This
is a total increase of $1,000.
BY contrast, the 1862 Catholic
population is a little less than
three times that of 1912 -

Evidence OF the newer,
more brutal suppression CIV
en- by the agency, Eta Press,
includes the arrest and de-
portation of the adminiStra-
tor of a diocese, the forced
resignation of a seminary
rector and his replacement
by a Red-picked man, the
closing of churches in Wilma
and Kaunas, and the confis-
cation of a n~eWly-completed
church in Klaipeda (Memel).
Earlier, it had been &C.
knowledged in Lithuania that
an organization Of 1900 mil
liant atheists, formed last
December, had not succeeded
in its announced goal of driv-
ing religion out of the nation.
This was admitted at Kaunas
in April by A. S. Barakaus-
kas, secretary of the Lithuan-
ian Communist party.
THE ELIZA PRESS sum-
mary said that such efforts
actually have had the reverse
of the desired effect, tending
to draw Lithuanians closer to
their Faith.
The news agency reported
that a priest named Msgr.
Povilas Sidlauskas, identified
as Apostolic Administrator
of the Panevezys diocese, has
been arrested and deported.
1t said he had administered
the diocese since January,
