MAYOR KELLY BBASTS
RACE BIGOTRY
Continued from page one
race lines. 1
“T disagree with southern nern
“Th-
true ,» 1
The mayor said that the
world lacks coordination and:
cooperation, and deplored the
idea of speaking of American
eitizens in the terms racial:
“You people are willing to be,
counted because you know you
are doing the right thing,” he
declared. “You know a
ed nation cannot stand; you
know a divided city cannot
stand.' |
Kelly warned against public
complacency in this hour of
national crisis: against listen- ’
ing to the rumor that the war (
will end in 60 days; leaving
war jobs, for pre war jobs, be-
cause 'of circulated reports, '
about a s hort war.
School Board Wrangle
When Janie's B. McCahey,
chairman of the board of edu¬
cation, made his report on the
city's schools, pointing out
that the board had given spec¬
ial attention to schools in the
colored areas on the south j
side, he literally ran into a !
hornet’s nest.
The first to sting him was!
Dr. John A. Lapp, chairman otj
the Citizens School committee.!
Dr. Lapp ridiculed McCahey’sj
report. Then Mrs. Irene Mc¬
Coy Gaines, a representative
of the Federated Colored Wo¬
men’s clubs, followed b^ charg¬
ing subtle school board dis¬
crimination against schools in
colored neighborhoods. Mrs.
Gaines demanded a change in
policy or McCahey’s immediate
resignation. !
Earl B. Dickei^on, chairman 1
of the People’s movement and i
former second ward alderman,
taunted McCahey by proposing
that he publish the number of;
vacant school seats in non- non- j
Negro school areas as a means
of protecting himself against,
the charge that he and his
board are following a discrim-i
inatory policy, which colored! forces 1
double shift schools in
communities, while vacant 1
seats are available in whitei
areas. j
Restrictive covenants were
hit by Maynard Kreeger,
who proposed that the mayor’s
committee go on record to
abolish restrictive real estate
covenants. Kreeger, a repre¬
sentative of a religious inter¬
racial organization, suggested
that after the committee goes
on record to abolish the evil
covenants, all leading organi¬
zations join in supporting the
repeal of the act in Springfield
an idea that was approved by
Dr. Sparling, president of the
YMCA collgee.
“There are 10 reasons for
the situation (housing) we
are discussing,” said Newton;
C. Farr, Chicago Real Estate,
board. “They are the high
cost of lands, of building, of fi¬
nancing, the high rents, high
taxes, cost of public housing.!
rent restrictions, sales restnc- 1
tions. government restrictions
and blight.” Farr, who ad¬
dressed the committee from
the floor, was asked if he rep¬
resented the real estate inter¬
est of Chicago. “I speak as a
owner.” private he citizen and property!
answered.
“It is a historical necessity
that an immediate solution of
the problems facing the Negro,
should be made now. declared
Ishmel Flory, head of the local!
branch of the National Negro!
congress. He called attention ,
to the fact that this war. the
people's war, is being fought in
the interest of all the people,
including the Negro. The Ne-1
gro. he said, does not want to
wait until tomorrow to enjoy
his just eivil rights..
Germs Know no Color
Dr. Hetnan N. Bunderson. 1
president of the health depart-,
ment, removed himself from i
the color issue by declaring i
that germs know no color. He!
reported that in his capacity,
as head of the city’s health!
department he fights germs

• The voting on
rious moves in both houses
chows an almost solid lineup of
Southern Democratic members
with a substantial bloc of Re¬
publicans. This coalition was
maintained throughout, de¬
spite the vicious, demagogic
race-hating speeches in the
House by Representatives John
E. Rankin of Mississippi, and
the equally vicious utterances
of Senators Jam-s O. Eastland
of Mississippi in the upper
chamber.
“The newspapers of the coun
try carried an Associated Press
story quoting Senator Eastland
as saying that the so-called
“state’s rights” soldier vote bill
must be passed in order to
maintain w’hite supremacy.
Mr. Rankin made similar state
ments in the House. Almost a
whcle day in the Senate accord

ord, w’as devoted to a discus¬

was paramount. Many oppo¬

endorsed a “states’ rights” bill
and in effect gave enormous
aid, comfort and prestige to
the persons who had ashamed¬

sentiment in supporting their
side of the argument.
“It is the opinion of this As-

gro minority is to regard ti
collaborators with the Rankin’
Eastland bloc as opponents of

Negro citizens.

that your statement on this leg
islation should have placed you
