A local clergyman who has dis-

stand against segregation, told the
local branch of the NAACP, cele-
brating its 311111 anniversary, Sun-
day; that Christianity and democ-
racy are not synonymous.
"You don't have to he a Chris-
tian if you lire democratic. Critics
say preachers should stay out of
politics and economics. If you do
not agree with some, you are ii
Communist. You cannot stop with
tnking Christianity only to Ameri-

You must take justice tff the world.

New York City Probes Charges
Of Segregation in Public Schools
By the Associated Negro Press
NEW YORK—Slung to the
quick hy charges of Dr.
Kenneth Clark that Negro pu-
pils are receiving an inferior
education in New York City's
public schools, Arthur I^vitt,
president, hoard of education,
has asked the Public Education
association to make a thorough
study of the situation.
I)r. t'lark, first Negro to re-
ceive permanent appointment to
tlK1"faculty of a New York mu-
nicipal college, an associate
professor of psychology at City
college, charged that Negro
rkjjfce n generally attended pre-
dominantly Negro schools that
were ill effert, "segregated."
These schools, lie declared, had
many substitute and inexper-
ienced lc.Qiiers. and pupils re-
ceived inadequate instruction
and guidance.
Levitt replied to the "segrega-
tion" charges by placing the
blame for large numbers of Ne-
groes in some scliools on the
failure of other organizations
to provide adequate, mixed
housing. Here in Harlem where
(lie population is 99 per cent Ne-
gro, the schools reflect that
small percentage of non-Negroes.
Practically all .schools are
as segregated racially as those
legally segregated in the deep
South. This is due, Levitt said,
not to the school system, but
to the practice of herding ethnic
groups—not only Negroes— in-
to certain sections of the city.
There are schools with almost

University of Missouri
Ends All Segregation
By the Associated Negro Press
ST. LOUIS, Mo—The University of Missouri last week voted
to end segregation and admit Negroes to all branches of the
institution.
In taking the step, the board of durators repealed a 1950
resolution supporting the separate but •qua! theory, but calling
for the acceptance of colored student* ft the graduate or pro-
fessional level, provided the desired oourses could not be ob-
tained at Lincoln. itbe law •clinnl of the university.
The curators arrived at their Although <niisi<lercil the fore-
unanimous decision at a meeting in runner of many decisions of the
'40's wfcii h pushed the wall of
segregation backwards, the Gaines

Its Immediate effect was the es-
tablishment of a law school at Lin-

Register's Choices
SAN ANTONIO REGISTER, after careful consideration, and
severe examination, of the candidates to be voted on in the
Saturday, July 24, primary, has selected the candidates listed
below, as those persons, Register feels, if elected to office, would
best serve the interests of ALL citizens.
Governor—Ralph Yarborough
Sheriff—Owen W. Kilday.
District Attorney—Austin Anderson.
Tax Assessor-Collector—Raymond South.
County Chairman—James W. Knight,
County Treasurer—L. W. Lerick.
Justice of Peace—John F. Onion
Commissioner, Precinct 3—R. L. Header.
Commissioner, Precinct 4—A. J. Ploch.
STATE REPRESENTATIVES
Place 2—Maury Maverick, Jr.
Place 1—Ed Sheridan.
Place 3—Odous C. Tindall.
Place 4—Charles J. Lieck.
Place 5—Walter J. Madalinski.
Place 6—Fred A. Semaan.
Place 7—Albert A. Pena, Jr.
Register would feel that it was derelict in its duty to its
readers if it failed to point to the records of some of these can-
didates. '
When an effort was made to get Negro representation on
the county hospital board, incumbent Commissioner R. L. Read-
er was the" only official with the courage to offer a Negro's
name for the board. He has long followed a policy of liberal
employment for Negroes, and his general record, in all its as-
pects relative to the Negro, certainly justifies his re election,
and the support of Negro voters.
Incumbent Commissioner A. J. Ploch has consistently made
every effort to-serve his Negro constituency to the best of his
ability. He has not, and does not, make promises that he knows
he cannot keep, or has no intentions of keeping. His latest serv-
ice to the Race was the improving and surfacing of Nebraska
street from Mount Zion First Baptist church to New Light Bap-
tist phurch. This was specifically done i'or the convenience of
the delegates to the national meeting of the National Baptist
Sunday school and BYPU congress that convened in San An-
tonio in June. Many hundreds of visitors from every section
of the United States were able to move between the two church-
es quickly, pleasantly, and with a minimum of inconvenience.
And, despite all rumors to the contrary, there are no Jim
Crow practices at the Old Folks home, which is under Ploch's
jurisdiction.
In the legislative race, the most liberal man in the state
legislature in Austin, today, is Maury Maverick, Jr. It has
been Maverick who has introduced bills to abolish Texas Jim
Crow professional prize fight laws. Again and again he has gone
over and above the "bosses" of Texas, to show that he is a
real American.
The office of District Attorney jfastin Anderson has con-
sistently demonstrated its courage i# forthright investigation
and prosecution of all cases under its jurisdiction. It has dealt
fairly and honestly with all citizenry.
Register recommends and urges the full support of these

All D. C. Teacher
Eligibility Lists
Merged by Board
By the Associated Negro Press
WASHINGTON—-The liberal wing
of the eapltol's board of education
won out over an opfiosing minority,
last week, when the hoard voted
4-3 to merge all existing eligibility
lists under the District's new school
system eligibility lists, without re-
gard to race.
The new system had l>een recom-
mended by Supt. Hobart M. Corn-
ing, who said the new list was ad-
ministratively essential and neces-
sary to protect "established rights."
The immediate prospect of the
board's action is that Negro teach-
ers will benefit largely, since a
majority of those on the list is be-
lieved to be colored.
Xhe merger was opposed by Rob-
ert M. Faulkner and Mrs. Frank
8. Phillips, both of whom objected
to merging lists resulting from
segregated examinations. Rowland
F. Kirks also objected to the merg-
er on legal grounds, but yielded at
Dr. Coming's request.
Another board member, Walter
N. Tobriner, had warned that aboli-
tion of present lists, rather than
merging them, would subject the
board to "a flood of litigation."
When the showdown came, how-

Burton, 24, 303 North IMne street,
was dead on arrival at Robert B.
Green hospital.
Fendred Grant, 26, 2210 West
Poplar, who, police said, admitted
tlie shooting, was arrested and
booked for murder. He was released
under $1,500 bond, Saturday.
The slaying was the seventh of
the year involving Negroes.
The man that Burton had ap-
parently been chasing was Frank
Thomas, Jr., of 1218 Menchaca
street, the husband of Burton's sis-
ter. Mrs. Essie J. Thomas.
Grant, In a statement to S. Earl
Matheny. of the district attorney's
office, said that Burton, his brother-
in-law, had been "causing him a lot
of trouble," since 1050.
Burton constantly wanted to bor-
row his automobile, Grant said, and,
when he was refused the machine,
Burton would threaten Grant
Friday night, Thomas ami Earl
Riley were at Grant's home play-
ing dominoes.
Burton sent word by his sister.
Mrs. Kssie J. Thomas, wife of
Thomas, that he wanted the keys
to the Thomas car.
Thomas sent back word that he
would "not loan his car to anyone."
A short time later, while en route
to their home. Mr. and Mrs. Thomas
met Burton who was en route to the
Grant residence.
Burton again asked Thomas for
the latter'* cor keys, and when
Thomas refused to give them to
him, Burton allegedly advanced on
Thomas with his hand in his pocket.
Thomas ran back to Grant's
apartment, and asked Grant If he
could spend the night there, be-
cause he was a fa raid of Burton.
About that time, Burton came
to the door of Grant's apartment.
Thomas fled into a back bedroom,
and loc ked the door.
Shortly, Thomas said he heard a
shot, and. opening the door, saw
Grant with a shotgun in bis hand,
and Burton lying on the floor, just
inside the door, blood streaming
from his face.
Thomas then ran from the house,
and "did not stop running until he
got home." He told his wife there
had been a shooting.
Another witness, Earl Riley, said
that, shortly after Thomas had
gone downstairs, he had come run-
ning back up the steps, declaring
that Burton was after him, and
wanted his car keys.
A few minutes later, Riley said
