Negro citizens are welcome to

time, Editor C. E Brou Alton oi
the Sheboygan Press said last
week in a letter to Dan Travis
Milwaukee editor of the Chica¬
go World.
According- to Ifavi the
newspaper man complained
that very few colored peopie
come .to Sheboygan. He said
in that town there are no anti-

“The Sheboygan Press and
Sheboygan certanly present an
invitation for Negro veterans to
settle in a community where
the majority of the people are
just and peace loving,” the
message said, according to
Travis.

The statistics for the 1946-

A statement on page four in
the Bulletin reads; “Due to the
