Broken Lamp
Tubes Termed
Dangerous
Broken tubes of florescent
lamps are dangerous and may
cause serious injury or even
poisoning unless extreme care is
used in disposing of them, H. M.
Ellis, in charge of agricultural
engineering for the State Col
lege Extension Service, warned
this week.
Ellis said it is quite possible
for a person to be seriously in
jured by glass from such a
tube, if there is a cut from
the glass or if the powdejr
' within the tube gets into a
wound. A wound caused in
this manner may require
months to heal and in some
cas^ may never heal without
resort to surgery.
Experiments are being con
ducted to discover non-poison-
oHs materials that may be used
in flurorescent tubes, but until
such experiments are successful
and the new materials are in
use, Ellis asserted, evei’y pre
caution sliould he taken in dis
posing of discarded tubes. Dust
or the mercury vapor from
broken tubes must be prevented
from getting into the human
system, either through a wound
or through the nose or mouth.
Above all, the extension spe
cialist warned, steps should
be taken to see that discarded
tubes do not fall into the
hands of children.
“Should a tube be broken in
a room,” he asserted, “get out
at once and stay out until all
dust has settled. Do not attempt
to pick up broken bits of tube
with the fingers. Never place
discarded tubes wdth garbage or
other rubbish, because you will

Washington, D. C. — Senator
Glen H. Taylor (D. Idaho) an
nounced that his attorney last
week filed a Petition for Cer
tiorari in the Supreme Court of
fhe United States requesting re
view of his 1948 conviction and
six months prison sentence for
disorderly conduct by the Cir
cuit Court of Jefferson Coun
ty, Alabama.
Tln! case grew out of the Sen
ator's arrest and prosecution
when, in rcspon.so to an invita
tion to address a meeting of the
Southern Negro Youth Congress
ill Birmingham, .^Uabama, on
May 1, 1!)48, he attempted to
enter the church where the meet
ing was being held through the
door marked “Negro entrance”
for the purpose of testing- the
Constitutionality of the Bir
mingham ordinance requiring
separatft! entrances, exits and
Beatiiig arrangements for Ne
groes and whites at all meetings,
theatres, entertainments, etc.
Although the charge prefer
red against the Senator by the
City of Birmingham was disor
derly conduct, he contended at
the trial that the entire purpose
of his arrest and prosecution
was to enforce the segregation
ordinance. He challenged tSip
oonstiutiouality of the ordinance
on the grounds that it violates
the provisions of the 14th
Amendment guaranteeing tlie
equal protection of the laws,
and on the further grounds that
it ])laced an illegal restriction
upon the rights of free speech
and assembly.
The Trial Court refused to
consider the Constitutional is
sue on the ground that this was
an ordinary case of disorderly
conduct in which the question of
'segregation was not involved.
The Alabama Court of Appeals
sustained the conviction on the
theory that the church had a
right voluntarily to make pro
vision for separate entrances,
and that the Senator's attempt
be endangering someone who
may not realize how dangerous
thest* tubes can bt‘.”
Most practical way to dis
pose of spent tubes, he added,
is to dig a disposal pit at some
spot where it is not likely that ,
anyone will dig into it, place
the tubes to be broken in this
hole, cover with four or five
inches of soil, pour water over
the soil until it is saturated,
and then use the point of the
shovel to break the tubes by
stabbing. While doing this the
person should not stand
directly over the hole. After
the job has been finished, the
point of the shovel should be
cut into the ground several
times to rid it of anything
from the tube that may be
kept away from the disposal
pit where the tubes have been
placed.

to ignore these “arrangements
and to “override established
eustom” had a tendency to
breach the peace. In reaching
these eouclusions, the Court
ignored the fact that separate
white and Negro entrances were
provided for only after the min
ister of the Church was arrested
on the afternoon preceding the
incident and charged with vio
lating file ordinance by failing
to arnuigf for segregation at the
aftt'rnoon sessimi.
The- brief in support of the
Petition for Certiorari points
out that ev!U if the theory on
whif-h the (-'ourt of Appeals de
cided the eu.se were valid, it
would not circumvent a decision
of the basic constitutional ques
tion. For, as the Supreme Court
recently held iu the restrictive
covenant cases (Shelley vs.
Kraeuier), the State cannot con
stitutionally use its power to en
force an agreement for segrega
tion voluntarily made by pri
vate individuals.
The brief stated that this
is the first case before the Su
preme Court to question the
Constitutionality of segregation
laws of the Birmingham type,
prohibiting the comingling of
Negroes and whites at entertain
ments, public meetings and the
like.
The brief further states; “The
fact that here it was a whitt^
person, and not a Negro, who
was the victim of the State’s
discriminatory action in no wise
diminishes importance of the
ca.se or weakens the claim of
constitutional right here invok
ed.
“On the contrary, the very
fact that petitioner is white
serves dramatically to demon
strate that compulsory racial
segregation infringes the civil
rights of the white person, as
well as the Negro. For it denies
to those white citizens, who,
like petitioner, desire freely to
as.semble and associate with Ne
groes the right to do so. It dis-
eriminates against the growing
number of white Americans who
utterly reject the doctrine of
racial superiority as false, unde
mocratic and alien to all that is
best in the American tradition.
It penalizes those whites who
wish voluntarily to practice the
principle of racial equality
which the Fourteenth Amend
ment was designed to secure and
which has now become a part of
international law, under fhe IF.
N. Charter and Declarafion of
Human Rights, setting a pattern
of conduct for all nations.
The brief also urges that the
segregation ordinance is uncon-
■stitiitional because, as in the
cas(! of Senator Taylor, it makes
ac((uiescenece in racial supre
macy through the use of a segre
gated entrance a condition on
the exercise of the individual’s
rights of free speech and free
a-ssembly. Such a previous re
straint on the exercise of these
fundamental rights, the brief
argues, can be justified only to
avert “a clear and present dan-

Deadline Set For
GI Bill Training
The majority of the World
War II veterans will not be per
mitted to start a course of edu-
edneation or training under the
Gl Bill after July 25, 1951, the
Veterans Administration has
warned.
The GI Bill provides that gen
erally training must be initiated
by July 25, I'Jol, or four years
after a veteran’s discharge,
whiehever is later, and it must
be eomplefed by Julj- 2."),
In view of the provisions of
the law, the VA has ruled, the
only exception to the rule will
be those who were discharged af
ter July 2"), ]f)47, and thos‘ who
eidisted or reenlisted under the
Armed Forces Voluntary Re
ger.” Judged by tha clear and
present danger standanl, fhe
brief sa\’s, the restrictions plac
ed on Senator Taylor’s rights of
frt'e sp(*eeh and assembly were
clearly illegal.
