PROGRAM FOR BRANCHES

cation In theatres. some in stores.
some i'm schools and recreation
facilities. and in some communities
there breaks out occasionally a
new instance OF residence segrcga
ton. Branches should ALWAYS adj
dress themselves vigorously 20
local problems. for in the success
full lighting Of them is the real
strength Of the whole Association.
Legal Defense
We urge the branches TO lend
whatever financial assistance they
can to local legal defense cases
which come clearly under the AS
sociation's activities. There have
beer instances in the past where
our branches have allowed
new protective" organizations of
citizens 10 spring up overnight TO
fight particular cases. and the
branch prestige has suffered there
by We dc not recommend that the
branches engage In any wholesale
legal defense program. but we do
urge them TO take action without
delay where a case comes within
the scope of the Associations
activities.
The National Office suggests that
small committee of the branch
might well devote it's attention to
the condition OF Negro inmates in
jails and county and state penal
institutions if seate penal insti-
tuition happens TO be- near tn"
branch. In any case. visits should
be made TO the jails. refirmatories
and delinquent homes. TO find out
about the treatment Of the Colored
inmates. to become acquainted
with the officials In charge so that
proper complaint my be made in
the event any discrimination is
uncovered. The Cleveland. Ohio
branch OF the Association did n
commendablc piece OF work in this
respect i'm 1892 and We think il
might well be part of the activi-
ty of every branch.
