Public Accommodation Laws
Already In 29 Of 50
By AL Kl'ETTNER
I'niled Press International
Twenty-nine of the 50 states al
ready have public accommoda
tion laws similar to that proposed
in President Kennedy's civil
rights bill.
The problem, integration lead
ers admit, is making the existing
laws work. They call it "de fac
to" segregation. With the civil
rights campaign in high gear,
cities like New York, Detroit,
Omaha, Boston and Los Angeles
are witnessing the same type
demonstrations as Savannah, Ga.,
and Jackson. Miss.
There is, however, one major
difference. In the South, Negroes
still are battling in what might
be called "phase 1" of the civil
rights battle. This is the stage of
breaking down existing laws that
require or encourage segregation
School Gets
High Praise
MOUNT SHASTA - Tile sum
mer school session recently com
pleted in Mount Shasta drew noth
ing but praise from Carl P. Ho
lier", superintendent of the Sis
kiyou Union High School District.
and William Freeman, principal!
ot Mount Shasta High School.
Of the 218 students attending-
the short term school, 24 were en
rolled in English I; 23, English
II; 16, algebra I; 22, mathema
tics I; 20, mathematics II; 24
world history; 40, U.S. history;
29. govcrnmenl; and 20, typing.
Both educators stated that most
students w ho attend summer
school produce better work the
following school term than during
the previous year. Concentration
is improved with fewer students
and better habits are developed,
they added.
Another advantage to summer1
school is that many subjects can
be offered which cannot be of
fered during the regular school
term because of limited schedul-l
ing. Freeman said. By attending!
classes for four hours a day for
six weeks, a summer school stu
dent can earn complete credit
for an extra subject.
He said that in many cases
students who lack only a few
credits for grauation make these
up at a summer session without
repeating an entire school year.
Falls, Oregon
I Elsewhere, tlie campaign
"phase 2" with Negroes demand
ing implementation of existing
laws.
The current non-South integra
tion drive was launched in part
at the 1962 convention of the Na
tional Association for the Ad
vancement of Colored People
held in Atlanta. Roy Wilkins,
NAACP executive vice president,
led a procession of speakers who
denounced what tlu-y termed "the
hypocrisy of de facto segregation
in the North and West."
Old Civil Rights Laws
Illinois has one of the nation's
oldest civil rights laws. Enacted
just 20 years after the Civil War
the law specifically requires equal
access to public facilities, includ
ing hearses, and equal prices to
all races for cemetery lots.
Anti-discrimination laws are so
strict in Illinois that a liquor deal
er can get his license revoked for
refusing to serve a customer on
racial grounds. Bat observers in
the state acknowledge that dis
crimination is widespread, main
ly in housing. Negroes still live
only in certain sections of most
major cities.

The measure covers motels, ho

New York has had a law
