ATLANTA, May 17, 1954 (UP) - The cost of equalizing school facilities for Negroes in 17 segregated-by-law states would be at least $500,000,000, a United Press survey showed today. Some states have spent more on Negro schools than on those for white children. Negroes are being admitted to some college graduate schools, heretofore reserved for whites.
