WALLACE SEEKS TO MOVE
TROOPS FROM ALABAMA

into Alabama to "enfcrce a
worthless agreement made by a
so-called bi-racial committee"
The city was quiet following
two weekend explosions and
riots that left "a injured and
heavy property damage.
Despite the trouble, there was
cautious optimism that an a.
greement worked out by a BIZ
racial committee last week
would stay in effect.
DIR. Martin Luther King, Jr.,
personally led a tour of Negro
pool halls Monday, taking up
weapons.
King was finally halted and
ordered back to his hotel by two
state troopers. The Negro lead
er had a hat full of knives,
blackjacks and other weapons he
had persuaded Negroes to give

The American Jewish Con-

proposals to give permanent

Commission on Equal Employ

prohibit job discrimination by
all government agencies, all en-
ployers holding government con-

higher than the State average.
And their corn output rose from
>38 bushels per acre to 70 =
16 more than the average for
the State, the magazine points
out. These and other achieve
ments led to their selection for
the Soil Stewardship feature.
Soil Stewardship Week has
been observed since 1946. It's
aim is to emphasize the pro-
lection and wise use of soil,
water, and other related re-
sources.
The Smiths and their neigh
bors and millions of others
will observe the week, but it
IS not a one-Week affair with
them. Taking care of their land
is an everyday job. That their
land takes care of them has
its proof in their home freezer
and on the pantry shelves.
However, the farm is too
small to meet the larger needs
of college fees for the four
children, the publication ex-
plains. So, Mr.. Smith has a
full-time job as a crane opera
tor at the nearby Naval Re-
search Laboratory. He and his
boys do the farm chores dur
ing late afternoons and even

20 states had enacted laws out
lawing job discrimination and
established state FEPC's to en-
force the statutes. While an
estimated SO per cent of the
country's Jewish population is
covered by this legislation, only
40 per cent of American Me-
groes live in these states, he
noted.
"The success of the various
state fair employment laws in
reducing employment discrimi-
nation teaches two lessons" Mr..
Gordon declared.
"First, that such legislation
can be effective; and second,
that only national legislation
can deal with the problem
nationally"
He continued:
Estate laws have been enact
ed in the areas where resistance
to equality is weakest. It is
idle to hope that such legisla-
ton will be enacted in other
states where employment discri-
mination is an even heavier
drain on our national resour-
ces."
Mr.. Gordon noted that "dis-
elimination against Jews in en-
ployment is manifestly a far less
serious problem than that fac

groups" He added:

THING EVERY WHERE l
WENT last weekend
that was Jackson Col
lege's coach Big John Merritt
leaving to coach up at Tennes-
see State, and although most
of the brothers couldn't agree as
to why "our coach" decided to
leave, almost everybody figur-
ed he must have had a good
reason. OF course / happened
to be having my usual refresh
ments with a couple of news
paper people and they was mad
about something else and
since this seems to be the week
to discuss it l thought I'd men,
tion what they was mad about.
One fellow, who has been writ
ing for local paper around
here for a long time said that
he couldn't figure out to save
his life how all them other big
colleges around the country in
vited the press to cover their
football banquets and awards
programs and things like that
end Jackson College didn't. He
said that if all that stuff hadn't
come up about Merritt going to
Tennessee State he never would
have known blame thing about
them even having an athletic
banquet or awards program or
diner out there. About this
time another fellow chimed in
and said we'll you ought not to
be mad about not being invited
to that awards dinner because
coach Merritt says they didn't
even invite him and you
know that if they don't invite
the coach they amt going to
invite you. Then the first fell
low said "well you might be
telling the truth, but l still say
that if they don't start remem-
bering newsmen when they have
something on that cmapus
the newspaper men are going
to start forgetting the college is
out there and they might not
like that too WE'LL" I don't

A Maryland Negro farm
family that has converted a run
down, eroded farm into a high
ly productive unit is featured
in the May issue of the U. s.
Department of Agriculture's
Conservation Service. magazine
which is devoted to Soil Stew
ardship Week May 1926.
The family are Mr.. and Mrs.
Richard Smith of Huntington,
Md, and their four children.
After five years as tenants on
a 6-acre farm, they bought the
place in 1852 and then sought
aid of their Soil Conservation
District to help them fight e.
rosion, says the publication.
The District sent a Soil Con-
servation Service technician to
assist the family in making
complete conservation farm
plan. The plan called for ter
races and contour stripcrop-
ping on the less precipitous
slopes, and grass or trees on
the sleeper hillsides, soil test
ing, and proper applications
of fertilizer. The SCS techni-
clan and the Cooperative Ex-

family.
