National Conventions disposal of the
color bar" amendment submitted by
the Massachusetts department seem
TO be contradictory. Suffolk county
alternate delegate William H. Brown
OF William E. Carter Post, was the
hrst Massachusetts legionnaire to
make statement on the proposed
amendment. When shown a release
from creditable news service which
SAID that the amendment had been
rejected by the committee because of
defects in draft and wording, Brown
insisted that the amendment had been
referred by the Legion convention
committee to the National Executive
committees standing subcommittee
on constitutional amendments "for
further study and consideration" His
version was supported by an official
text OF the convention proceedings.

BOARDING SCHOOL
SOLUTION TO
WORKING MOTHERS

Somany things of interest have hap
peucd since Miss Josephine Crawford
first announced her Private Boarding
School for Girls, we don't know quite
where to start telling you about them.
First perhaps would be this intrigu-
ing item: that Miss Crawford is con
centratiug on children of working mo
theirs for her pupils! Which is good
news IN amy language to those of you
who must make time" each and every
morning, leaving your baby under the
otttlmes impersonal care Of ueighbors.
The school, says Miss Crawford, is
laa solution to the problem of working
mothers as to a clean, healthy, pleas
ami place to put their small girls for
lha workaday week. As we told you
before, mothers have the privilege of
'aklng their babies home for week
ends, And this point too must be
stressed that the school tuition is
not excessive. In fact it is practically
I'll" same as anyone would pay for
weekly board in the city.
And now for the exciting news! Be
cause of the rapid progress of the
School, and the evidence which shows
how the work is developed in splendid
fashion, Miss Crawford's venture has
attracted the attention of certain in
nUentlal persons, one of whom has be-
come so enthused, she has offered four
partial buttons to four youngsters of

first time in over thirty years. Peculi-
arly absent from the addresses was
the usual mud-slinging and ballyhoo
that generally accompany a political
rally; instead, the speakers devoted
themselves to the merits of their own
candidate, the needs of the ward, and
their confidence that the people of
Ward 9 realize the need to elect
vigorous, militant, sagacious young
Ward Nine businessman and citizen
to carry their banner in the city gov
eminent.
Mr.. Wyche and Miss Black held the
center of the stage in the addresses.
The candidate, speaking with more
than his usual modest fervor, roundly
denounced the "runaround" that Ward
Nine has been given in the past, and
called for a unified campaign behind
a logical candidate as means to put
Boston in a category of other cities
which have elected colored candidates.

For the second time within a year,

advanced Harlem teachers to admin

Such appointments in separate schools
systems would not be matter of any
special comment, but coming in the

is significant in showing that super

the New York system are not denied
