SCHOOL PARK NEED
OF CO-OPERATION
Close co-operation between the
Omaha School Board and the
Parks and Recreation Commission
is needed to give Omaha children
the proper chance for recreation.
Parks and Recreation Supt.
Ralph McClintock offered that op
inion Saturday. He added that he
feels sure the co-operation will be
achieved.
Most schools are located near
the center of neighborhood popu
lation, Mr. McClintock pointed
out. Playgrounds should be sim
ilary situated, he said.
The recreation director said the
commission and the School Board
might well co-operate in these
ways.
1. Obtaining playgrounds near ,
schools.
2. Joint use of the playgrounds
as well as toilet and storage faci
lities in the schools. _
“It would mean that the kids
would have full use of the play
grounds for the nine months they
" ""'’ool,” he said.
Putting playgrounds as close as
possible to schools would mean
some change in the City-Wide
Plan for park development, Mr.
McClintock added.

DR.BUTLER OPPOSES
HAWAII STATEHOOD
DrNLcholas Murray Butler, pres
ident emeritus of Columbia Uni
versity, in a letter to the New
York Times opposes admission of
Hawaii to statehood, saying that
“to admit one or more of these
distant territories to statehood
would be he beginning of the end
of our historic United States of
America.’’
Dr. Butler also opposes ‘like
action contemplated first for Al
aska and then for Puerto P.ico,”
and says: %
“We should soon be pressed to
admit the Philippine Islands, Cuba
and possibly even Australia.”
Dr. Butler suggests that Alaska,
Hawaii, and Puerto Rico be et
ablished “as independent nations
by diplomatic action.”
Lime Essential
Lime is essential on acid soils for

JIM-CRO HOSPITAL
/ UNDER NAACP FIRE
NEW YORK,—The National
Association for the Advancement
of the Colored People restated
its uncompromising opposition to
any attempts to establish Jim.
Crow veterans’ hospitals today
when Roy Wilkins, NAACP as
sitant secretary, notified Rep. Ed.
ith Nourse Rogers (R-Mass.) of
the Association’s stand
In a message wired to the con
gresswoman, who is chairman of
the House Veterans's Affairs
Committee, Mr. Wilkins stated,
“The National Association for the
Advancement of colored People
has noted in the press that the
House Veterans’ Affaires Com
mittee has approved a bill to est
ablish a hospital for Negro vet
erans in Franklin County, Vir
ginia. We wish to reaffirm our
opposition to the policy of hospit
als are on a non-segregated basis
The hospitals on the fighting
fronts during wartime werenon
segregated. If all men who fought
and were wounded for their
country during wartime could be
treated without segregation sure
i !y our Government should not
adopt a policy of separating them
on the basis of color in veterans
hospitals dring peace time. We
believe that such a policy nullif
ies the goal which the allied coun
tries fought to achieve namely
the destruction of the armies de
dicated to the master race theory.
We urg; yo ir Committee to re
consider its action and tc disa.
prove any policy calling for the
segregation of veterans on the
basis of racj and color ”
