13 LEGAL HEIRS OF BUFORD ESTATE
10 RULED OUT BY BY JUDGE MIX
JUDGE CONKLING MUST UPHOLD DECISION BEFORE WILL IS CONTESTED
Tracing their relationship through a person who they say was the mother of the late Joe Buford, 13 claimants to his $192,050 estate were recommended by William L. Mix, Circuit Court Deputy, this week to be considered his legal heirs. In so doing he ruled against another set of 10 claimants who traced their relationship through Landon Buford, Giles County, Tennessee, represented as the father of the deceased.
Before the 13 claimants recommended as legal heirs can have the legal right to contest the will leaving the money to Mrs. Lottie L. Bush, Circuit Court Judge Roscoe Conkling must uphold the recommendation made by Mix.
The State has contended that the will was fraudulent and has laid claim to the estate on the basis that Buford died without heirs.
Evidence seemed to support the claim of the 13 who trace kinship through Tennessee Buford, Williamson County, Tenn., represented as the mother of Buford. It was established that her brother George has visited the deceased here on several occasions and was identified as his uncle. In addition the Welfare records from Davidson County, Tenn., reveal a nephew by the name of Joe. Census reports back to (1800?) indicate that Joe had lived with George. The relationship of the claimants was difficult to ascertain because supporting documents went back to days of slavery when many slaves acquired the surname of their owners.

CITY FATHERS MAKE DEAL?
REPORT SAYS THAT THEY DO
SAYS DELAY IN WILSON AVENUE PROJECT PROMISED BY OFFICIALS TO PARKLAND WHITES
At the Masonic Hall, 28th and Dumesnil Sts., it is reported that approximately 60 white property owners met on Thursday evening, April 27, in protest against the infiltration of Negroes into the Parkland area. It is rumored that the group has filed papers in Frankfort for incorporation as the Parkland Home Owners Association.
As reported one of the purposes of the organization will be to prevent construction of the low-income housing project on Wilson Avenue. This is one of two such projects that are to be built by the city. The Wilson Avenue project has been designated for Negro occupancy. It is to be build on a 40-acre site bounded on the east by Wilson Avenue, on the north by Young Avenue, on the West by 36th Street, and on the south by the K. & I Railroad tracks. In the meeting of Thursday evening it was reported that the city fathers had promised these white property owners that they would go slow on the construction of the Wilson Avenue project. An attempt was made by the Leader to get a statement from M. F. Dumeyer, Housing Commission Director, in regard to the above allegation, but he was not in his office at the time. This project is designated to accommodate 650 families. If these white property owners are successful in their designs, they will deprive the Negro of Louisville of the much -needed low-income project.
Another protest registered at the meeting was directed against real estate dealers who sell property in the area to Negroes. It is reported that they expressed themselves prepared to take any measures to keep Negroes out of the area and that a sum of $334.00 was taken up for the purpose of promoting the movement. A white druggist, a Mr. Marshall, is said to have given up the job of president of the group because of the colored trade he enjoyed at his store. Bill Harrison, an L. & N. R. R. clerk, is then reported as having been elected temporary president. It appeared, however, that Lew Ullrich, 2610 Algonquin Parkway, was asked to take the jo because of the influence he enjoys.
Reports are that the Shawnee Civic Club sent a delegation of eight persons to assist in the organizational meeting of Thursday evening, and that included in this group were the club president, Mr. Mayer; a Mr. Eberlein of the 31st and River Park Drive Filling Station; William Fostwengler, 723 S. 44th St., and Pat Doyle, 4627 W. Chestnut. The Owen Funeral Home at 28th and Virginia Ave. is said to be the place where secret meetings of the officials of the organization are held.

BAPTISTS PLANS NATIONAL MEET
Dr. W. H. Jernagin, president of the National Baptist Sunday School and B. T. U. Congress, officially announced this week the forthcoming meeting of the Congress to be held in Louisville June 19-25. The program of the annual session will be held at the Armory, Sixth and Walnut Sts. General headquarters will be set up at the Zion Baptist Church with Rev. D. E. King as chairman of the local committee.
The meeting is expected to attract American religious leaders from the 48 states, representing the laymen, voluntary Sunday School workers, superintendents, teachers, officers and leaders of the Baptist Training Union.
A new feature in this year's meet will be the laboratory school, which is to provide observation privileges and teaching experience for students in the Children's Division. Much attention will be devoted to the use of Visual Audio Aids in teaching and in the advancement and enlargement of the Daily Vacation Bible School.

EDNA G. HUGHES DIES
After several months of illness, Mrs. Edna G. Hughes, prominent in church and civic affairs, died at her home, 2526 W. Walnut St., Friday evening, April 28, 1950.
Funeral services will be held at the Congregational Church on Monday, May 1, at 3 p. m.

ROLAND HAYES IN RECITAL AT AUDITORIUM MAY 12
[Photo]
Roland Hayes
Louisville's music lovers are anticipating the "Triumphant Homecoming" of the world renowned tenor, Roland Hayes. His return brings back to the city an artist who started his career here. During his school days Roland Hayes worked at the Pendennis Club, where he was known as the "singing waiter". Since those days the name of this "singing waiter" has become legendary in the annals of music. His phenomenal rise to eminence as one of the world's greatest tenors is a remarkable demonstration of our democratic way of life and a living example to all aspiring youth of the success that comes to one who works hard and to his aims keeps true.
Writing of the artist, the News-Sentinel of Fort Wayne, Ind., eulogized: "It is easier to sense the greatness of Mr. Hayes' singing than to set forth a comprehensive analysis of his extraordinary ability. Words can express and give emphasis to many things; but can they ever describe adequately the edification one feels when listening to the artistry as chaste, as refined, as choice, as noble, and as wonderful as that of the renowned Negro tenor."
Mr. Hayes will be presented at the Memorial Auditorium, Friday, May 12, at 8:15 p. m., by the Women's Guild of the Emmanuel Baptist Church. Tickets are on sale at the church office, 648 S. 10th St., and at Shackleton Piano Company.

LINCOLN INSTITUTE GIRL WINS ESSAY CONTEST

The second prize winner was Anna E. Green, a student of Mayo-Underwood High School, Frankfort, Ky.; the third prize was won by Dorris Jean Haden, Lincoln School, Stanford, Ky.
The subject of the essay contest was "Desirable Recreational Outlet for Teen-Agers." The essays were judged by the English Department of Kentucky State College. The judging of the oral rendition of the essays and the prize winners was done by the English Department of Louisville Municipal College.
The contest committee consisted of the following: Bessie Shauntee Thompson, chairman; Alice D. Samuels; Olive K. Boone; Nora Bland, and Mary E. G. Roberts.

SERVICE MEN'S CLUB TO BE DEDICATED
Dedication ceremonies for the new Negro Service Mens' Center in the Brock building at Magazine and 9th streets will be held Sunday, April 30th at 4:00 p. m.
The Service Men's Center is affiliated with the Louisville Service Club which requested and was granted a special $4,000 appropriation by the Community Chest board for operating costs of directors. Thus the Service Men's Center becomes the 36th Red Feather service financed through the Community Chest. The Service Club also is a Community Chest agency.
Louisville has not had a regular center for Negro G. I's, since the USO Club at the Chestnut street Y M C A was closed in 1946 after the war.
Participating in the dedication ceremonies and open house observance next Sunday will be Major General William G. Livesay, commanding general at Fort Knox; William A. Moore, superintendent of the City Division of Recreation; James F. Kane, Louisville Service club board member and chairman of the committee of

RALPH BUNCHE TO DELIVER KSC COMMENCEMENT ADDRESS
Doctor Ralph Johnson Bunche of the United Nations will deliver the commencement address to the graduating class of Kentucky State College, Frankfort, Ky., on June 6, as announced by R. B. Atwood, President of Kentucky State College.
One hundred and forty-seven men and women are in this year's graduating clas. One unusual feature of this year's class is the fact that the men outnumber the women 87 to 60.
Doctor Bunche, a member of the Secretariat of the United Nations, is an outstanding world diplomat. Some have hailed him as the greatest peacemaker of modern times. It was he who brought to a successful conclusion peace negotiations between Israel and the Arab countries.
Born of humble parents, the grandson of a former slave, Ralph Bunche rose through sheer brilliance and hard work to the topmost place in world affairs today. He has become America's top ranking states-

BOARD VOTES TO COMMEND CLEMENTS
On Saturday, April 15, the Board of Directors of the Kentucky Negro Education met and unanimmously voted to express its gratitude and appreciation to Governor Earl C. Clements for his assistance in obtaining increased appropriations for Ky. State College, West Ky. Vocational Training School, and Lincoln Institute. In a letter to the Governor William L. Spearman, secretary-treasurer of the KNEA wrote: "This resolution expresses the real sentiment of the membership of the Kentucky Negro Education Association."
This resolution was presented to the General Session of the Association during its annual meet here this month. At that time the resolution was voted down by the membership. It was pointed out by H. E. Goodloe, Principal of Western High School, Owensboro, that increased appropriations for Negro schools only serve to retard the progress of intergration.

MARRIAGE AND DIVORCE RATES FALL
For the third year in a row, both marriages and divorces in the United States declined, according to a preliminary tabulation released by Federal Security Administrator, Oscar R. Ewing.
The figures, compiled by the Public Health Service, show 1,585,440 marriages and an estimated 386,000 divorces in the United States in 1949. Since 1946, when both marriages and divorces were at the highest level in this country's history, marriages dropped 30.8 percent and divorces 36.7 percent.
