School Supt. Continued from Paj?e 1
operating policy of the administration.” Alr.o reiterated in the letter was the long-standing: but often subdued charge that school officials seem to ignore certain deplorable conditions at predominantly Negro schools. “It has been a matter of much concern to us that the two largest elementary schools in the state are local ‘Negro’ schools and that the fact that the school city has seen fit to neglect the physical plant and equipment of the school which you apparently want to keep as onL'-hundred per cent Negro high school,’’ the aggressive civil rights leader charged. She scored tin* educational officials for failing to advance Negro instructors to any position higher than principal and questioned the reasoning behind the fact that no Negro teacher was transierred from Crispus Attucks to another high school until September of this year. In conclusion. Mrs. Davis admitted that perhaps the NAACP has been too patient. “However, we would prefer that the areas of difficulty be resolved by peaceful and voluntary means rather than by spectacular means such as demonstrations, boycctts and litigation." The 1» tier to Longshore sharply criticized Tech faculty members for their false contention that there is no discrimination at the school. | "! talked with pupils from Tech on the day of the disturbance, and was tola that it v;.s a 'sort of un-
written rule’ for Negro pupils to eat with their ‘friends’ in a separate lunch room and for the white to eat with their ‘friends’ as long as the said friends were Negro and white respectively,” Mrs. Davis explained. THESE CHARGES STEMMED from the violence which erupted last week on the school’s campus. Negroes, who are usually forced to eat in an all-Negro lunch room, tried to enter the lunch room reserved for white students only. “We will no longer have Negro children scared by such treatment and we are vitally concerned with the false sense of superiority such conduct implants into the minds of white youth,” Mrs. Davis warned. She concluded: ‘‘If. as an educator, you are concerned with the future of America, ybu will do well to teach the youth of today that there will be no place for chinking and acting in a _ discriminatory way in our society, if our present civilization is to remain intact.”

An official, period of rpourning for the four girls murdered in the recent Birmingham, Ala., church bombing was proclaimed Friday as the Indiana Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Church neared a close of its 125th annual session here. The conference condemned Alabama’s Governor George Wallace lor ‘‘making of himself a symbol of lawlessness, disregard and disrespect for the orderly processes of the law." ON SUNDAY, the closing day, the conference announced several pastoral charges. Rev. H. A. Perry, for many years pastor of St. John AME Church, 1669 Columbia, was assigned to Allen Chapel AME, Anderson. Succeeding him is rev. John W. Wright, formerly of Coppin Chapel, 3201 N. Capitol. ReV.

Welsh was commended and congratulated by the conference for being the first Governor in the United States to issue an executive order banning discrimination in plates of public accommodation supervised or licensed by the State. The Governor was recom mendled for the annual Richard Allen Award in 1964 for leadership in the area of civil rights. In a resolution, the conference asked that the 479 churches In the AME Fourth Episcopal District to “drape black upon our altars, pulpits and over our entrances, with signs reading, ‘Till Freedom Rings,” in memory of the four girls brutally killed in the Birmingham church bombing.” Bishop Gomez, who heads the Fourth District, reported that one of the dead girls was baptized by an AME minister. Rev. C. E. Thomas of St. John AME, Birmingham. He said the draping is to continue “as a mute reminder to the world of our disenfranchisement and spiritual discontent until this battle for tohtl freedom is won.” Conference delegates asked Bishop Gomez to ask other Bishops of the AME Church to take similar action “in anguished memory of the four innocent victims of race hatred.” TELEGRAMS to President John F. Kennedy and Atty. Gen. Robert Kennedy were sent by the conference supporting the appeal of the Negro citizenry for "special consideration and direct federal intervention and protection before more lives are snuffed out.” Rev. Myles Esterbrook of Oakville, Ontario, Canada, the only white minister pastoring an AME
Church in America was speaker for the Laymen’s program Saturday evening. The Laymen s group presented a $100 scholarship to Cheryl Jenkins, a^Gary high school senior.
