In discussing the matter with Roy

tuted. And yet, if Gaines reappear-: temorrow it was not clear just
what ffect it would have upon his

NEW YORK~(SNS)~Action was
taken this week on the three newest
teachers? salary cases being handled
by the NAACP.

~In Escambia County, Fla. where
Vernon McDaniel has filed an injunction against the local school
board, the case was argued on a
motion to dismiss before the United
States District Court in Gainesvilie
Florida, on Monday, May 9

On Tuesday, June 10, the school
board of New Orleans, met to hear
the: petition to equalize teachers~
salaries there. A complaint has
been drawn and if the board refuses to equalize the salaries, a case
will be filed in the United States
District Court of New Orleans on
June il. There is a reported differential of $275,000 a year in the salaries of white teachers over those
of Negroes in New Orleans schools,

Arrangements were made for the

democratic order. We have a responsibility for working actively to
~improve it. Certainly one way of improving it is to assure its continu-.ance long enough to effect such improvement. ~ Granger pointed out
that Britain~s defeat may not bring
actual military invasion to. this
country, but it would certainly assure the dominance of Hitler~s ideas.
as expressed at present in such scattered groups as the Klan, the ~Silver
Shirts, the Christian Front, the Bund
and similar ~hate~ groups. A Hitler

problems and achjeve their citizenship rights.~

The speaker recetved an ovation
from the assembled delegates as he
concluded with the statement that
just as white and Negro workers of
the South can overlook their differences regarding segregation while
they join forces in the battle against
the poll tax, so American liberals can
favor aid to Britain! in her battle

passed a set of resolutions demand-~
ing that certain steps be taken to
~keep the Negro in his place.~

The resolutions deplored the circulation of communistic literature
which advocates the doctrine of racial, political and social equality,
and the practice of taxi companies

| in allowing both Negroes and whites

to ride in the same cabs, even at
different times.

State Grand Dragon Ben Adams
said he would call a state wide meet-.
ing to consider similar resolutions.
Declaring that the good relations

only if certain checks are made, the
resolutions recommended that~ the

~I need net emphasis to you
that there are many rapacious
