CLEVELAND, OHIo-That modern
and effective street lighting re-
suits in a decrease in serious
crime has been dramatically il
lustrated in cities and towns all
across the country. New York,
Cleveland, Denver, Chattanooga,
Albuquerque, Gary and Winston
Salem are among the many cities
which have reported declines of
criminal acts in areas where
modern street lights were in
stalled.
So when 80 women, incensed
because of a series of purse
snatchings, muggings and crimi-
nal assaults, sat down in March,
1862 and organized the Indian
apolis Anti-Crime Crusade, they
Immediately recognized the i'm
portance of adequate lighting by
including a lighting division.
The Indianapolis Police De-
partment encouraged the women
in their drive for better lighting.
Inspector Daniel Veza told them
that crime goes down as much as
$3.50 when areas are adequately
lighted.
Under the Craftsmanship of
Mrs. John A. Alexander, the
women took many unusual steps
in their efforts to get frst-hand
information on lighting, and to
dramatize their campaign.

Groups of women held meet
ings under street lights, in tenn
peratures as low as five below

of poorly lighted areas at night,

lighting committee of the Board
of Works, and adopted.
Although the primary purpose
of the lighting crusade was to
reduce crime, the program also
paid off in another way, when it

lie works program devoted to the
building of more schools, homes, hos
pitfalls, roads and libraries was the
direction in which such a peaceful
economy should develop, the resolu-
ton stated. 1t concluded with the
statement that basic to its program
was an international agreement for
complete disarmament.
The resolution on civil rights de-
clared it is ''to the eternal shame of
America that the Negro people, Amer
lean Indians, Puerto Ricans, Mexican
Americans and other minorities still
had to fight for first class citizen
Ship.
Major responsibility for this con-
dition of inequality was placed upon
those who disenfranchise the Negro
people in the South. "Not only is this
a gross violation of the rights of the
individual" the resolution stated, but
it rebounds to the detriment of all
Americans by saddling Congress with
Dixiecrat politicians who are major
factor in preventing the enactment
of sorely needed social legislation.
The delegates resolved to redouble
their past efforts to achieve equal
rights, and to demand that President
Kennedy and his administration en-
act into law the civil rights measure
set forth in the Democratic party
platform of 1860.
