ANDERSON INTRODUCES SEVEN MORE BILLS - ASKS PERMANENT RACE COMMISSION - OTHER MEASURES REGARDED AS IMPORTANT TO INTERESTS OF NEGRO Frankfort, Ky., February 7--Charles W. Anderson, only colored member of the Kentucky State Legislature, ran his number of bills introduced in the House of Representatives, now in session, up to nine last week, when he [on?] last Friday, introduced seven new measures. Topping his bills of last week, was his recommendation that the Kentucky Commission of Negro Affairs appointed by Governor Simeon S. Willis, some months ago, became permanent. The bill tends to study and report on economic, educational, housing, health and other needs of the Negro citizens of Kentucky. The measure would give permanent status to the six Negroes and six white persons appointed by the Governor as members of the Commission of Negro Affairs. The other bills sponsored by Anderson last Friday follow: 2. Prohibition against discrimination against Negro physicians, nurses and patients in public hospitals. 3. Prohibition against discrimination against Negro citizens in stores. 4. Provision that the State Department of Education shall not approve or accredit as individual schools the separate common schools of any school district and --- Read the Leader's editorial, "The Series of Anderson Bills", on Page 4. --- requiring that all schools in one district, both white and Negro, must be accredited together, thus forcing districts containing Negro schools to raise their standards.
