NAACP Asks U.S. Court Ban Miss., Jim Crow Laws JACKSON, Miss.~The NAACP filed a historic suit here this week seeking to end exclusion of} Negro citizens from public parks, libraries, zoos, golf- courses and the like, throughout Mississippi. Three Jackson Negro citizens have challenged the constitutionality of three state ~statutes which prohibit use of public faeilities on an equal and integrated basis, The NAACP action, filed in the U. S. District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi, asked that a three-judge court be convened, Playgrounds, auditoriums and other public recreational facilities are also listed in the NAACP suit filed by Jack H. Young of Jackson, Robert L. Car-| ter, NAACP general counsel, and Mrs. Maria Marcus, both of New York City. It also asked that the case be set down for a speedy hearing and that the state statutes involved be declared unconstitutional. NAACP attorneys also asked that a temporary and permanent ~injunction be granted against Mayor. Allen C. Thompson, City Commissioner Douglas L, Luckey, Police Chief W. D. Rayfield, Parks Director George Kurts and; Library Board Chairman Leon L. Hendrick, and others. The plaintiffs allege, through their NAACP counsel, that they bring this action ~on their own behalf and on the behalf of thousands of Negroes in Jackson and all other parts of Mississippi, who are similarly situated because of race and color.~ They Further point out that they ~are members of a class. of persons who are racially segregated in the use and enjoyment of public~ recreational. facilities, and discriminated against by the defendants.~ The Jackson officials filed a motion. objecting to the NAACP~s request for a three-judge court. They utilized the unique argument. that the acts complained of in the NAACP suit were not done under authority of the three Mississippi laws cited in| the Association~s brief. Therefore, the Mississippians argue, their state laws are uot under attack,, so no three- ~Judge court is necessary. NAACP attorneys are prepar: ing for their next move.
