Supreme Court's de cision on segregation." flow in the world can we do that?" Jackie asked, “if we are going to continue to educate them separately in a Jim Crow school si stem?” The popular baseball star said "We <Negroes» must take the bull bv the horns and unite to fight our own battles to set. civil rights.” Colored people all ever the world, Robinson noted, who Vi avo ijtulrri in this struggle Many Os The 1 Million Korean Vets Who Stopped Gl Training Will Soon Get Another Chance Meay of the 1 009,000 Korea vet erans who dropped ont of GI train- 1 ieg will get a new chance to re- < sums their education this fall un- 1 do? « Veterans Administration rut- i ing announced by Sumner G.

Regarding colored children go ing to ‘white’ schools, Jackie re minded that colored as well as white taxpayers’ money supported all the schools and hod an equal right to share in the use of them. Robinson pleaded with the Elks to continue to support the NAACP SSOO life membership drive by paying as little as SSO per year on an individual or lodge basis. For others he urged the taking of smaller memberships, emphasizing that “We need the numerically as well as the financial strength to carry on our freedom fight.” Hobson Reynolds, civil liberties commissioner for the Elks, re sponded to Jackie and eloquenflv pledged the support of Elkdom to a stepped-up NAACP membership snd registration-vote campaign. if be can show VA that the inter ruption in excess of 12 months was due to reasons beyond his control. Mr. Whittier explained that VA’s new ruling amounts to a liberali zation of what the VA will consid er to be reasons beyond a veter an's control. Many of the t. 000,000 former GI trainees who weren’t, eligible to resume training undo VA5s old procedures now will become eligi ble under the new. he said. The VA ruling will permit a vet nan to get back into GI training if he shows that he interrupted his course for any of these reasons; i Family or financial obliga tions beyond his control that made it necessary for him to suspend training in order to get * job. 3. Unavoidable conditions in con nection with his employment that forced him to suspend his training. -»-C " BR '■ PRK-PA RED | FOR LIVING 1" I i ; mP * CIVELLA i BEAUTY COLLEGE | Full Course in Beauts Culture j aod Classes in Personality and ; Charm For InlortnatioK Write: Mrs. Christsana J.
