NAACP Probes
Rumor of Freedom
Train Jim-Crow
NEW YORK.—A report that
southern cities are arranging to
have separate days for whites and
Negroes to visit the Freedom
Train, which was contained in
Walter Winchell’s syndicated
newspaper column Oct. 15, is be
ing investigated by the NAACP.
In a telegram to Winthrop Al
drich, chairman of the Board of
Trustees of the American Herit
age Foundation, sponsors of the
Freedom Train, Walter White,
NAACP Secretary said:
“I would appreciate your ad
vising me what action the Amer
ican Heritage Foundation will
take when any city attempts this.
Will the Train be withdrawn and
appropriate publicity given of the
reasons for such withdrawal? I
believe this to be the only effect
ive* way of implementing the res
olution passed by the Board on
July 9.”
Mr. White is a member of the
Board of Trustees of the sponsor
ing Foundation, and said the NA
ACP would alert its many branch
es throughout the south to action
if any attempts at segregation
were made.

The greatest pleasure I know, is
to do a good action by stealth, and
to have it found out by accident.

NEW YORK. (ANP). The Phy
sicians forum announced Tuesday
the formation of a Vivian Inez
Douglas Memorial Scholarship
committee to raise money to send
a young Negro woman through
medical school, in the name of the
young Negro woman who died last
week after a lifetime of sacrifice
for her parents and herself that
she might become a doctor. Vivian
Douglas received her medical de
gree in a hospital bed, and died
before she could take her interne
ship at the Lincoln hospital in
Durham, N. C., where she would
have been the first woman doctor
there.
Dr. Mary McLeod Bethune, of
the National Council of Negro
women, has taken the position of
chairman of the committee, with
Dr. George Cannon, of the Joint
Diseases hospital of New York and
secretary of the Physicians forum,
as vice-chairman.
The Forum sponsored the for
mation” of the committee in the
belief that it would give sub
stantial hope to Negroes for whom

the achievement of a medical de
gree is too often as tragically dif
ficult as Vivian Douglas found it.
One cannot change yesterday—
that’s clear,
Or begin tomorrow until it’s
here.
So all that’s left for you and for
me
Is to make today as sweet as can
be!
