Louisville, Ky.-The fifth annual
State Interracial Conference, held in
this city recently, went on record with
"a vigorous recommendation that Ne
groes be given "a fair share Of civic
advantages maintained by taxation or
controlled by law, such as parks,
swimming pools, libraries, hospitals
and penal institutions, and on rail-
roads, and that committee consisting
of both groups be appointed in each
city to suitably appear before the
proper authorities to urge such provi-
sions."
The Conference gave large attention
to the need Of more adequate facilities
for Negro education, recommending
the enactment of law to equalize
school advantages, and asking that an
"A grade" colored teachers college be
established. The Conference pledged
itself also to work for the establish
ment of state institution for feeble
minded children, endorsed the move
ment to open the colored wards Of
public hospitals to the practice Of Ne

commended that the study OF Negro
history and achievement be made
part of the public school course.
The meeting was attended by some
two hundred professional educational
and civic leaders from over the state,
the two races being equally repre-
sented. Many able speeches were de-
livered on education, health, public
utilities, the ballot and other timely
subjects, the fullest frankness being
encouraged with regard to conditions
and attitudes. The principal address
was that of DR.. R. r. Motion, head Of
Tuskegee Institute, who made a
powerful plea for justice and friendh-
ness before a mixed audience that
filled one of the largest white.
churches Of the city. He was given
a most appreciative hearing.
In his annual report, DR.. James
Bond, Director Of the work in Ken
lucky, expressed the conviction that
conditions and attitudes are steadily
improving in the state, in spite of oc-
casional apparent backsets.
