That the said Findings of Faot entirely mmit to find ~pon the
21
22 ·quastian of equal faoil1t1es furnished!. in the separate schaals in the
23 several Distriots. In our opinion, such a finding of faot is essential
24 as pertaining to the question of Jurisdiction of this Court. The un-
I
250ontradioted evidence shows that the faoilities provided in eaoh of the
26 sohools are 1dentioal. We therefore request that an additional finding
I
27 'be made, and that suoh finding be ,in substanoe the finding made by the
28~court in ita o~nolua1GDs, filed on February 19, 194-6, on page 5 thereof.

liThe reoerd before us shows without eenf1ht

that the teohn1cal fao1l1t1es and physioal oon­
ven1enoes offered in the sohoo1s housing entirely
the segregated pupils, the eff1c1enoy of the
