from talking with veterInar-

certainly have to recommend
that we include in our vac

this will be added insurance
to our livestock cost of pro-

Let me urge that you vac
clnate all of your cattle an
nually for anthrax, malign-
ant edema and leptospirosis.
Vaccinate all of your cattle
on the farm under 2 years of
age for anthrax, malignant

ton concerning a vaccina-
ton program consult your
veterinarian or drop by the
office and We will be glad
to talk to you concerning
your livestock vaccination
program.
Be sure you don't wait too
long IN the spring SO it will
be hard to get your animals
up to give vaccination shots.
If you will do this before
you quit feeding your cattle

NAAcP Critical
Of Proposed Bill
On Public Housinq

The Minnesota Dakota State
Conference, NAACP, today crit
icized the proposed amendment to
the Minnesota laws on Mlmicipal
Housing and Redevelopment nov
pending before the Minnesota Leg
islature.
Approval of this amendment
Senate File No. $50 and House
File No. 639) would only serve
to deny decent housing to low
income families; impede the pro-
gress of slum clearance, and to
curtail the authority of responsible
municipal officials, stated, Tim
othy Howard, NAACP State Hous-
ing Chairman.
In further emphasizing the AS
sociation's position on the amend
ment, Donald Lewis, State NAACP
President, stated, Public Housing
programs often present low-income
families with a long awaited op-
portunity to move out Of econ
omic ghettos into better neighbor-
hoods with better housing: Public
housing holds promise Of accomp-
fishing more than breaking up a
ghetto. When planned intelligently,
and with vision, these programs
can create new patterns of demo-
cratic living which can benefit
the whole city. Densely populated,
run down areas, in which low in
come families are exploited by
slumlords, can be replaced by
whole new communities. These
areas, when redeveloped with ade-
quate and attractive housing,
benefits family life, community
leadership and the schools and
other public facilities that sur
round them.
Public housing" Lewis stated
can serve as an effective tool not
only to eliminate slums and i'm
prove housing conditions but also
to broaden the housing opportunit-
les for all low income families
There, the State NAACP, urges
the Minnesota State Legislators
to leave to the municipal officials
the right to determine the number
Of housing units they may need for
their respective communities
whenever they feel such public
housing is necessary" Mr.. Lewis
stated.

Sunday afternoon, March 81, to
hear some very informative panel
lists espouse their views on the
subject How Can We Arrest or
Change the Defacto Segregation
Trend in the. Minneapolis School
System"
Members of the panel were Mrs.
Harold Carter, president of the
Warrington PTA; DR.. w. D.

Calvin Walton of the Governors
Human Rights Commission; Sam
Richardson, advertising manager
of the Applebaum chain stores and
Mrs. Lowell Johnson, former public
school teacher.
Rufus o. Webster, a Minneapolis
High school teacher served as
moderator.
Panel members presented differ
ent phases of the situation.
Speaking on the subject of att-
tudes, Mrs. Carter talked about
the community's attitudes and ac-
ceptance, prejudiced teacher and
staff things which, she said
we're faced with everyday"
Segregated education in any
form was called an inherent evil

two schools in st. Paul as ex-
amples of defacto segregation.
Walton claimed the schools were
predominantly Negro without one
Negro teacher. mo community in
1868 can tolerate segregated
schools, whether by law or by
other conditions" Walton said.
DR.. w. D. Brown, Jr., talked
about the bad psychological effect
defacto and outright segregated
schools have on the students. He
also cited the lack Of Negro his
tory in the Northern schoolrooms
as another factor.
In citing the need for NAACP
members and other interested citi-
zens to write their legislative rep
resentatives about the present
State school aid, Sam Richardson
presented information to support
his claim that Minneapolis is not
receiving its fair share Of money
for schools and students. The Ap-
'1 plebaum advertising manage Ell
claimed the Minneapolis school
board was asleep for 10 or, Is
years"
Mrs. Lowell Johnson, a former
school teacher using informative
charts talked about the suggested
plans approved by the National
NAACP office which in their opin-
ion could end the defacto school
segregation.
The methods were Re-zoning-
(the schools districts affected) /;
The Princeton Plan elementary
schools in the same area would
have different grades); Reorganiz-
alton Plan-build new schools or
send students to other areas or
eliminate some schools whichever
is the most feasible; Site selection;
the Bussing Plan-send children
out to other areas and send others
in, and the Open Enrolment plan
parents would be allowed to
send their children to any school
of their choosing.
The school issue which has
created community wide interest
consumed nearly two hours Of dis
cussion. A future meeting to hear
school board candidates for the
coming election will be held in
April, according to Curtis Chivers,
president of the branch.
The Minneapolis NAACP also
