Love, care and attention
have been lavished on every
single piece Of George Naka-
shima's handcrafted furni-
ture.
American born, Of Japa-
nese extraction, Mr.. Naka-
shima describes himself
simply as a woodworker with
q philosophy "if a tree must
die, then we want it to live
again to the fullest extent
possible"
His pieces carry the mark
Of simplicity so often seen
in Oriental design. The re-
semblance ends there.
Wood Is his challenge, to
bring out its Inner core" in
designs that encompass all
the granting and burls, the
natural rich and deep color

ural sapwood strains.
To the internationally
known designer and archi-
tect. woodworking is an art,

craftsman works with nature
to create the beauty Of sim

were noted and as the results of
this study began to emerge some
light was thrown on the causes of
the deficiencies in relation tol

apparent that health services along
would not suffice. It was felt that
an effective health program would
have to be accompanied by rather
comprehensive social welfare pro-
gram
Thus it was that the cooperation
of the College of Medicine, Howard
University and the National Council
OF Negro Women was sought since
Howard University is itself at this
time time concerned with strengt-
hening community relations and
ties with such voluntary and civic
groups.

when they learned of these propol

operations in this county. They
felt that since they had an active

great local interest and geograp hiea
proximity to the Headquarters o.

Group Challenge
Antibias Order
Frankfort, Ky.

The Louisville Tavern Oper-
ators Association has asked
Franklin Circuit Court to
nullify an executive order
which Gov. Bert Combs issued
against discrimination in bust
nesses and professions licensed
by the state.
1t was the first challenge Of
the Governors order, which
met with mixed reaction.
Some sources hailed the order,
the second of its kind ma
tionally, and others criticized it
sharply, TO the extent of CALL
ing it unconstitutional.
The suit, filed Wednesday,
asked the court to void the
June 26 order; to keep the state
commissioners of revenue,
health and alcoholic beverage
control from issuing any rules
to force racial Integration in
restaurants and taverns and for
a ruling that the Governor and
other defendants had no au-
thority to act under Combs
order. Governor Combs was
not Immediately available for
comment.
Jack Lowery, attorney for
the tavern operators, told
newsmen he hoped that by
putting the issue in court
something as vital as this
will not be made into a political
football.

world to question the sincerity
Of the orders critics." Mr..
Lowery said. Cor that the Gov

very highest, but it is abso-

tors to the Exposition will see
major Negro stars perform.
A special attraction at the
Negro Progress Exposition will
be a show produced by Steele
on a floating stage behind Nc
Cormick Place on Lake Michi-
gan, according to Edward P.
Sutorius, managing director of
the Exposition. Spectators will
be able to watch the review
from the terrace behind the
huge exposition hall.
Chicago born Larry Steele is
regarded as one of the most
colorful and popular figures in
show business today because of
his versatility. In addition to
his success as a producer, he is
a composer, actor, writer, musi-
clan, singer and master of cere-
monies.
Steele introduced the first
Smart Affairs" in 1947. Since
then, he has taken the show on
tour throughout the United
States each year. The produc-
ton also has been seen in Aus
tralia, New Zealand, and else
where in the Far East. His is
the only review of it's type to
tour each year with a new
theme, book and cast.
The young producer and his
show have played at the Hotel
Deauville in Miami Beach, the
Elmwood Casino in Windsor,
Ontario, and the Waldorf As
toria Hotel in New York City.
Stars who have appeared in
Smart Affairs" include Billy
Daniels, Sarah Vaughn, Damita
10 and Dick Gregory. The re-
view also has toured with Nat
king" Cole.
Another special feature of A
Century of Negro Progress Ex-
position will be a daily stage
show produced in Arie Crown
Theater at Mccormick Place by
Duke Ellington. A separate
group of top Negro stars will
appear in the original musical
production.
A Century of Negro Progress
Exposition, which is expected to
draw between 100000 and 1,000,-
900, visitors, is being contribut-
ed to by more than 100 major
American industries, the City
of Chicago, several states, five
agencies of the federal gov
eminent, and at least five
foreign countries. The EXPOSE
ton is being produced by The
American Negro Emancipation
Centennial, headed by Alton A.

That is still his position -
following two nights of rioting
in Savannah. Local officials
and police found themselves un-
able to cope with the situation
during the first night of roit-
ing Wednesday.
Thereupon Savannah Mayor
Malcolm Mclean appealed to
Governor Sanders to send state
troopers to aid local authori-
ties in preserving order. The
Governor responded by send
ing SO troopers to the historic
port city. Others are on stand

Savannah quickly if needed.

Police and state troopers

tear gas Thursday night to dis
perse crowds Of rock throwing
Negroes and block q mass
march on the downtown area.
The latest disorders came on
the heels of new pleas from
spokesman for both races for
m end to violence.
The march began after about
1000 Negroes damned into a
recreation center for q rally.
Before leaving, they were
urged against wrongdoing by
the Rev. Andrew Young of At
lanta. Mr.. Young is an official
Of the Southern Leadership
Conference. headed by DR..
martin Lulner Ming JT.
Task Complicated
State officials and the At
lanta representatives of Negro
groups are attempting to assess
the Savannah rioting; it was
that. To call it demonstrating
is an euphoniSm.
The task of discerning the
factors in the rioting is COM
plicated by the fact that there
is undoubted rivalry and an
tagonism between two Negro
groups now working in Savan-
nah.
One spokesman for q group
deeply committed to integra-
ton said that, young impatient
Negroes have taken control in
Savannah, referring to the
vote crusade. allied to the
Southern Christian Leadership
Conference.
Here are the facts as they
appear to observers:
In June the Savannah
branch of the National Asso-
citation for the Advancement Of
Colored Peoples began an eff
fort to inteTate the restau-
rants. hotels, motels. and thea
tiers. The Chamber of Com
merce and the City Council
set up an unofficial biracial
commission on which Mr.. Will
liams and Ben Clark Of the
Crusade for votes" were the
Negro representatives.
Agreement Announced
On June Is Mayor Mclean
Yale-educated and generally
described as a liberal - an
nounced there had been an
agreement on Indignation.
Two days passed, and Ne
rroes were admitted to no
white restaurants or hotels
except the Howard johnson
restaurant, part of national
chain.
The Negroes grew angry,
and demonstrations began.
They have continued every
day since except during days
of heavy rain, which have
been frequent in Georgia dur
ing the last month.
Meanwhile, the one event
that appears to have angereo
the Negroes more than any
other was the arrest of Hosea
Williams. head of the Savan-
nah unit Of the NAACP, under
Georgia's socalled good be-
havior" statute. His bond orig
inally was $4,000. 1t has mount
ed to $4,000 as new charges
are filed against him every
time an attorney seeks his re-
lease.
MIR. CLARK of the Crusade
for votes" also is in Jail un-
der statute providing that
if a person has been a con-
sistent law violator he may be
held temporarily without bond.
There is no doubt that both
Governor Sanders and Mayor
Mclean would like to end the
racial tension in Savannah as
soon as possible.
Governor Sanders received
tremendous Negro support
during his election campaign
against former Gov. Marvin
Griffin last year. Mayor Nc
Lean earned the friendship OF
many Savannah Negroes in
1861 when he appointed one

nents had time TO protest.
