Despres Attacks Board Over Segregation Policy
Alderman Despres condemned the Board of Education for segregation and urged the council to return the 1962 tax levy with a demand for an integrated school policy. He criticized boundary drawing and ghetto wagons, called Chicago the most segregated northern city, and urged action to end segregated education despite a 39 to 2 table vote and 40 to 1 adoption of the levy.
