'Too Much Prejudice In Lawrence'
A Lawrence school teacher said yesterday she and her husband plan to move from Lawrence to another community where there is less prejudice toward Negroes.
Mrs. James Smith, a teacher in the Lawrence school system, speaking to the KU-Y cabinet yesterday said: "Students can have a friendly attitude toward the Negro and not run him out of a neighborhood the Negro chooses to live in."
Mrs. Smith said that after she and her husband graduated from KU they decided to look for a home here in Lawrence. After several inquiries at various real estate agencies, Mrs. Smith said they were told there were no homes for sale or rent in Lawrence except in run-down neighborhoods.
Mrs. Smith said, "My husband and I decided not to make our home in Lawrence permanently. At the present time Mr. Smith is back in school earning another degree. When he completes his work we plan to move to another community where there is less prejudice."
Mr. Ralph Brown, chairman of the Urban League of greater Kansas City, said that as a boy he lived in Lawrence. He said: "Lawrence has retrogressed in its integration policy. When I was a boy, 50 years ago, my neighborhood had a Negro family living there. Now there are no Negroes in my former neighborhood."
Mr. Brown said the Urban League is a conservative organization. The Urban League is in favor of negotiation instead of demonstrations as a means to end segregation.
"We try to keep our people out of jail. We advise that everything be done within the law. Other organizations, such as the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, think we are cowardly but we feel they are going to run into real trouble. The Urban league will be the only surviving civil rights organization and we will have to solve the problem."
Mr. Brown said the Urban League is not in favor of block busting. Block busting is the practice of moving a Negro family into a neighborhood to depreciate property value. White people in the neighborhood move out and the Negroes can buy their property at a low price.
