Harlem Senator Quits Legion Over Color Bar Bias
State Sen. James L. Watson of Harlem resigns from the American Legion in protest of the organization’s refusal to drop the color bar in its 40 and 8 fraternal group. U S Rep Charles C Diggs Jr of Michigan also resigns over perceived intolerance after Minneapolis rejected voluntary integration in local units. Watson cites his Purple Heart record with the 92nd Infantry Division in Italy as a reason felt by many veterans.

Lotto Is Motto For Hungarians Seeking Jackpot
In Hungary a weekly lottery called Lotto or toto draws millions of players despite low wages. A $43,000 prize or a home, car, and TV lure workers, with drawings every Friday. Prizes, apartments, and security are safeguarded by vaults, ink stamps, and treasury officials. Gyoorgy Bardos, longtime manager, defends it as harmless under Communist rules.
