The energetic p a S tor Of Newell
Chapel c. NJ. E. Church, Rev. R. L.
Young, and his loyal membership only
stopped long enough, seemingly, after
paying off big church debt on East
er Sunday, to look around and find
something else to be done.
They have just completed a project
in which the interior Of the church
has been redecorated. Three beauti-
full mouse colored wool runners have
been laid, the Communion rail has
been redecorated a I'd the alter re-
draped in a beautiful blue fabric
which add a more sacred atmosphere
to the church.
The pews have been re-arranged
and this, together wit h other i'm
provements, make the church a more
beautiful sanctuary in which to wor-
ship and give alteration to Almighty
God.
The committee in charge of the dec
Grafton was composed Of Mrs. Lula
wilson, Messrs. T. C. Miller and
James Redmond.
No, they aren't stopping there. 1t
appears as if the next project will be
to beautify the grounds of the church.
A certain portion of the grounds will
be set aside and made into a play
ground on which e trio lights
swings, seats, chutes and other plav
ground facilities, for the amusement
Of the children, will be installed. A
competent instructor will be in charge
Oh yes, reservation will be made for
the adults of the church. They plan
to have tennis court and croouet
court on the play ground in order
that the entire membership NAV en-
gage IN some kind of recreation.

GEORGIA COMMITTEE RESOLU
TON ON WHITE PRIMARY

At its annual meeting in Atlanta,
April IA, 1914, the Georgia Committee
on Interracial Cooperation voted to
issue a constructive resolution on the
situation arising from he Supreme
Court decision in the Texas primary
case. A committee was asked to pre-
pare t e statement for publication.
We give here the resolution in full,
WHEREAS, the Supreme Court Of
the United States has ruled that the
Negro citizens be permitted to vote in
the Texas Democratic primary cleo
ton; and
WHEREAS, it appears that this de-
cision will probably apply to primary
elections in all states where Negroes,
on the basis of their race or color
are now excluded from primary cleo
tons; and
WHEREAS, there have been state
ments issued bv some party officials
asserting that the decision of the Su-
preme Court of the United States will
not be followed in certain states; and
WHEREAS, we believe Ia t the
time has come for every state in our
great nation to treat all of its citizens
justly and equally, believing also that
the integrity of the nation and of its
whole people is definitely related to
our acceptance of the rulings of our
courts and h t good government
cannot exist in locality or state or
nation where the people attempt to
circumvent the studied and honest de-
clsions Of their courts; and
WHEREAS, further there are al
ready many states in our nation in
which all qualified persons, freely and
without restrictions because of race.
DO participate in primary and general
elections, and seeing that there are a
number Of Southern states where this
is true and good government has NOT
appeared to suffer in these states, be
it hereby
RESOLVED, that we call upon our
beloved State of Georgia and its par
ty and government officials to respect
the letter, t e implications and the
spirit of the decision of the Supreme
Court of the United States in the Tex
as Primary Case, to the end that no
qualified citizen of the State of Geor-
. gia be denied his right to participate
in the primary and the general cleo

InteraciaI Practices
THE Y. w. c. A. AND INTER
RACIAL PRACTICES

In April, 1910, the National Student
Council asked the Y. W. c. A. for the
appointment of a commission to study
the intelracial experience of that as
ISOLATION. In the fall of 1912 this
commission was appointed. This
commission has reported its findings
and has made recommendations to the
National Board Of Y. w. C. A. and to
the local Associations.
Among t h e recommendations pro-
posed are the following:
/. THAT a conscious goal of all To-
cal associations be h e inclusion of
Negro women and girls in the main
stream of association life"
2. That the separate planning for
any racial group in the population
(white, Negro or other) is too partial
to be sound, and that provision be
made for frequent joint approach to
the total area under consideration"
3. "That all salary and wage diff
erences between white and Negro .
workers doing the same work be wip-
ed out"
4. "That, in communities where,
because of rigid patterns Of separa-
ton. it may not now be possible for
white and Negro women and girls to
be members of the same groups, In
ter-club Council processes and other
intergroup activities be consciously .
employed to bridge the gaps between .
the groups separated because of race
b ut otherwise organized on similar
bases, with view to bringing them |
progressively closer to inclusive func-
tioning; and that, in some commune |.
ties, individuals who are ready for |
participation in joint clubs be given
that opportunity even though the
general constituency may not be ready
for such experience
