Texas. To invoke the blessing of God on such gathering, as they did, seems ludicrous to mewhen the Bible clearly states, “There is neither Jew nor Greek, therb is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female; for ye are all one in Christ Jesus \(Galatians PATRICIA HINDS MARSHALL 2537 Yale, San Angelo Legislators, Too To the Editor: Many rightly believe that proper lobby controls should repeal the “automatic continuance” and bar all legislators from state p ractice or lobbying before governmental departments while in the legislature.

Separate-but-equal is a fraud …. A diploma from a Ne g’ro school simply does not hold ‘water with …. those who do the hiring and the promoting …. :-‘olored teachers and white must ae used whenever qualified and :ompetent and wherever needed.
