Our SUPERB Government

IS A SYSTEM of government by bureau heads in

LAW OF THE LAND"
That is the definition Of BUREAUCRACY in Web
sters Dictionary
And that is the sort Of government we are pretty
much living under today particularly that Congress
has gone on vacation TO FISH while the world burns.

THE statement Of Mr. Bggers is worth printing as an
L eye-opener as to just what's what in Washington.

What's become Of the Library of Congress- Or is that
too legitimate to be used for archives?
OF course many of these 2241 bureaus and agencies
are necessary but many of them-a vast majority of
them in fac-are merely coy homes for the fourth
term implementers-at the taxpayers expense.
Mr. Bggers comment on this orgy of bureaus is
enlghtening Noah Webser's when he says:

history, the decade during which governed by

No Bias In

AsAmended

The National Non-Psrtisan Coun-
ell on Public Affairs Of the Alpha
Kappa Alpha sorority scored an
other victory this week when they
were able to get an anti-discrlmina-
ton amendment in the Nurses
Training Bill
The amendment was introduced
Monday. June 4. by Senator War
ron Barbour. Republican Senator
of New Jersey. So thorough had
been the canvas Of the Senate by
Mrs. Thomasina Walker Johnson.
able lobbyist of the Council on
Public Affairs that the amendment
went through without a dissenting
vote. The bill had previously
passed The House Of Representatives
without the necessary amendments
and when the amendments we're
added in the Senate there was much
apprehension lest the House refuse
To accep, the amendments Of the
Senate. Mrs. Johnson then began
a campaign 20 have the House &C
ccpt tho amendments. The job
that she did there was so effective
that confcrecs were not even ap-
pointed and the amendments ac-
ccptcd in full.
The amendment reads that in tho
Nurses Training Act. That there
shall be no discrimination in the
administration Of the benefits and
appropriations made under the re-
spcctivc provisions az this act on
account Of race. creed or color"
The National Association Of COL
ored Graduate Nurses, under the
leadership OF Mrs. Mabel X. Stau-
pers. supported The amendments.
