| Eastern Market welcomed a much*
; needed playzround in that district,
which lonz had been fertile soil
for juvenile delinquency due to
improper adjustment toward chil
dren s recreation. But children
will no longer need to play ball in
the danzerously crowded streets,
where trucks and autos pass by in
conslant streams from dawn to
dusk, fringing in or carrying out
foodstuffs of the Eastern Market,
or loaded with people going to
work or returning from work. To
end this peril George V Branch,
director df the Bureau of Markets,
off i••i aI ly presented Eastern Market
playground to the city Sunday.
Sept. 1M Lively militaristic music
of the Drum and Bugle Corps of
Triangle Post IS*H introduced the
dedication ceremonies as the high
stepping attractively attired drum
majorettes paced the procession.
John J. C'onsidine. general sup
erintendent of Department of
Parks and Recreation, opened the
affair with the presentation of the
American flag to Scoutmaster
Simpson of Rrew’ster Center Troop
114. After the flag-raising cere
monies, D. Derosier, master of cer
emonies, introduced the speakers.
Among them were A tty. Cecil

SEN. TRUMAN
RAPS DEWEY'S
FEPCSTAND
In a blistering attack on Gover
nor Dewey's Seattle speech. Senator
Truman charged Thurt-day in a
pres* interview lhat Governor
Dewey has resorted to ‘ double talk"
on the creation of a permanent Fair
Employment Practice Committee
Senator Truman stated. "While
the Republicans claim Ihej want a
permanent Fair Employment Prac
tice Committee. Governor Dewey in
bis Seattle speech boldly charged
that the FETC was an tong the agen
cies which, according to him. have
smothered' our a::<>r relation*."
Dewey < o\ ers I p
Accusing Dewey of trying to
cover up his real position on the
FEPC issue. Senator Truman de
clared "In his broadravt Governor
Dewey promised to establish a per
manent FEPC, yet the pre->s copies
of this same speech which was
given out for publication in the
newspapers ri d not carry a line
about the creation of a permanent
FEPC."
Citing the fact the Senate Demo
crats forced out on the Senate floor
a favorable report on a permanent
FEPC bill this week, the Senator
stated: "This proves again that
Democrat? act and Republicans only
talk, and Governor Dewey cannot
even talk straight."
Refused to Act
Senator Truman teealled the fact
ih.u Governor Dewey deliberately
refused to act on proposals for a
Fair Employment Practice Com
mittee in New York State when he
co Id have easily created a State
FEPC with the help of his Repub
lican dominated legislature.
Eight members of the Dewey ap
pointed Committee on Discrimina
tion in Employment which proposeo
the New York FEPC resigned when
Dewev refused to act because they
were "unwilling to continue as part
ner* yn futility." At the time of his
resignation from this committee Dr.
Channmg H Tobias declai ed ".. .'he
chief offense does not rest in the
fact that the hill did noi or romd
not pass, but in the fact that it was
deliberately shejved and no oppor
tunity was given to discuss it."
Wins Victory In
Tenn. Teacher’s i
Salary Struggle
JACKSON, Tenn —Another vic
tory in the association's efforts to
aid Negro teachers against discrimi
nation in salary differentials was
won September 18 in local federal
court when defendants in the Jack
son, Tenn., teachers’ salary case,
agreed upon settlement.
The complaint in the case was
filed in the fall of 1943 by the
Jackson Colored Teachers Associa
tion against the Commissioners of
Education of Jackson, Tenn., and
she local superintendent of schools.
The plaintiffs alleged in their com
plaint that Negro teachers and prin
cipals were arbitrarily disci imN
natrd against in the payment of sal
aries. receiving le>? compensation
than that paid white teachers and
principals of equal qualifications
and experience.
The Jackson C olored Teachers
Association was represented by /,.
Alexander Looby of Nashville.
Tenn . and NAACP Special Counsel
Thurgood Marshall
to do in this community in such a
short time. I believe every 10th
block should be set aside for a
playground for boy* and girls. Rill
Loving. a«oa director, welcomed
'he adults to the playground. In
■Rev. Molbon's address a statement
vas made that, “There are fewer
playgrounds in this community
than there are in other areas in
Hetroit . . , We hope this is only
the beginning of a series of parks
and playgrounds. If we do not
give the children parks and instru
ments for the purpose of play,
they will find places to plav and
the instruments to play with by
themselves.”
The affair was climaxed with a
demonstration of the Women's
Minute Squad of Brewster Center
and a first-class drill team com
posed of six girls and two men of
Triangle Post 198, headed by Col
l>eo Whittaker, reflected discipline
and training of the highest order.
