New Ayr-Way East Sets Formal Opening October 13
Avr-Way East, opened formally to the public Friday, Oct. 13, is a modern, self-service department store featuring a gigantic food supermarket. It is the first of a chain of self-service, checkout, low mark-up stores to be operated by Ayr-Way Stores, Inc., an independent subsidiary of L. S. Ayres &
Company.
Ayr-Way East is the first of three planned Ayr-Ways announced for Marion County. Located at 6800 E. 38th at Shadeland Avenue (Indiana Road 100), it is the principal unit in a cemer which will include a series of service shops now under cpnstruction. When completed, the center will elude a dry-cleaning and laundry plant, baroer and beauty shop, shoe repair shop and an auto accessory store, with a 1,000-car parking area. At the east side of the Ayr-Way East center, the developer is building a service station and a 100-unit motel and restaurant. DEVELOPMENT OF Ayr-Way Blast moved rapidly alter tne first newspaper announcements, Feb. 20, 1961. Zoning approval for the center by the Metropolitan Plan Commission of Marion County came on March 22.
Ground-breaking ceremonies on May 4 were followed by appointment of Robert Cramer as manager on May 24 There was a “preview” or unofficial opening Oct. 9 and the announced public opening (with happy disregard of superstition) came on Friday, the 13th of October . . . less than eight months after the first announcement; just five months and nine days after ground-breaking. Of the 105,000 square feet in the Ayr-Way East building, approximately 80,000 square ieet are occupied by merchandise departments while 2o,000 square reel are leased to Garden City Foods, Inc., of Gary, for the supermarket. THE SERVICE SHOPS will occupy 18,500 square feet of the total 124,000 square feet of store space in the center. The same number and types of stores will be included as each Ayr-Way center is estab-
lished.
True values in reliable merchandise, offered with a minimum of service, are here in a wide selection of women’s, men’s and children’s apparel, fashion accessories, home furnishings and smallwares.

quest of the government’s special prosecutor from Washington, Vincent P. Russo, a U.S. Justice Department attorney. UPSHAW WAS indicted last May on the four-count indictment charging him with evading more than $253,000 in federal taxes. Russo charged that Upshaw reported income of $72,183 on his 1958 return and paid a tax of $33,972. His actual income was $163,907 that year, and he should have paid taxes of $101,673, the attorney claimed. “I urge a long prison sentence for this man, “Russo told the court. “He is the second largest policy operator in the area ... he is indifferent to violation of the law . . . and he has indicated that even if he is jailed, he will continue direction of the policy
wheel.”
“Further, it must be pointed out that Hutchen Upshaw could not operate this racket without the bribery and corruption of public officials, and he admits that,” Russo added. The two defense attorneys, F. Laurence Anderson of Gary and Jack C. Brown of Indianapolis, spent close to one hour pleading with the judge for leniency. Anderson asked that Upshaw receive probation. He contended that his client had not commited a crime of moral turpitude and that the violation was a monetary offense between a private citizen and the government. IF SENT TO PRISON, Upshaw could not pay the civil penalties facing him on the tax delinquen- j cies, Anderson said. The lawyer. also reported that Upshaw is con- j fronted with more than $2 million in tax liens filed by the Internal Revenue Service. The liens are pending in U.S. Tax Court. Anderson concluded that Upshaw was was not a threat to society to justify imprisonment and that he was a generous man with a social conscience. He cited the many contributions Upshaw has given to the United Fund, the United Negro College Fund and other health and welfare institutions. The “co-operation” that Upshaw gave the government in checking his records was emphasized by Brown, a former U.S. Attorney for the Southern Federal District of Indiana.
(Continued from r*ge 1) broker reportedly replied: “Then we might not be able to get FHA money.” IT HAS BEEN an open secret for years — olten deniea but at least once admitted by a leading member of the Indianapolis Real Estate Board — that realtors will not sell to a Negro until at least two homes in a block already have been sold to Negroes. (The first two sales presumably must be made between private parties.) But up till now it had not been revealed that the ban also applies to fair-minded whites. THIS SITUATION — which perpetuates jimerow housing worse than that in some Deep South cities —will soon be ended by Federal action if the sponsors of the press conference are right. Rabbi Maurice Davis, president of the Human Relations Council, said the Federal Home Loan Bank last June 1 adopted a policy — which was not made public at that thne — forbidding all Federally Involved loan associations from discriminating in lending funds for hous-
ing.
He added that an executive order by President Kennedy on the subject is expected soon. “We stand in the housing field where the South stood in ’53 and ’54 prior to the Supreme Court school decision,” Rabbi Davis declared. “We offer our services to the Jbuilding industry and the community, in preparation for this great change.” OTHERS TAKING PART in the conference ana supporting non-seg-regated housing were Atty. John Preston Ward, representing the NAACF; Father Raymond Bosler, Catholic Interracial Council; Robert Gordon, AnU-Deiamation League of B’nai B’rith; and Irving Levine, Jewish Community Relations Council. < Mr. Nicholas, who succeeded Harold O. Hatcher when Mr. Hatcher became director of the Indiana Civil Rights Commissoon, is a native oi Topeka, Kas., with a B.A. from the University of Wyoming and an M.A. from Colorado University. He served in World War II and the Korean War, with ihe rank of Captain.
