Texas Negro School Critics Rebuffed
Texas Attorney General Price Daniel rebutted a group of 188 northern law professors who filed a brief with the Texas Supreme Court on behalf of Heman Sweatt seeking admission to the all white University of Texas law school. He said the professors misstate Texas facts and warned they might not accept southern law schools as equal to northern ones. The Sweatt case will be heard next month. The article also notes a report about the Prophet Mohammed having multiple wives with the first marriage to a widow 13 years his senior.
