as isolated ’’Islands’* in a sea of

This was the quiet statement,
without any hint of anger or im-
patience, made Saturday by W. J.
Edwards, Negro real estate de-
veloper. He added he had put
down paving in his new addition
north of the hospital, "but It can’t
be connected with any city paving
because there isn’t any paved ap-
proach to serve the sections where
our people go."
Tb make matters worse. Bdwards
said, the city annexed a large P*rt
of the isolated area, including the
hospital. He summarised develop-
ment as leaving the Negro section

missioner. "put some gravel along
the north side of the hospital on

he would blacktop It later, but we
