important not only as a domestic
issue but as an international issue.
The people Of the world who are
looking at the United States are
sizing up our attitude toward them
in relation to our attitude toward
the citizens belonging to minority
groups in our own country. These
people of foreign nations will lack
confidence in their equality of op-

if they see US denying that equality

Mrs. Roosevelt to
NAACP Board

New York.-Mrs. Franklin Del
ano Roosevelt, long a champion of
minority rights, has accepted mem
bership on the National Board of
Directors for the National Associa-
ton for the Advancement of Col
ored People. In making this an
nouncement, NAACP secretary
Walter White said: "The NAACP
is honored to add so great an
American to its National Board of
Directors. Mrs. Roosevelt has
stood by her guns in the face of
bitter attack and misrepresentation
not only from anti-Negro southern
ers, but others as we'll. To have her
counsel as a member of the Board
will mean a great addition to the
effectiveness of the NAACP fight
for total equality for the Negro"
During Mrs. Rosevelt's long
period of championing minority
rights nothing endeared her quite
Americans in those early years, as
her resignation from the OAR.
when that organization refused
Marian Anderson use of Constitu-
ton Hall in Washington. At an
other time in September, 1914, her
response when challenged on racial
issues by a southern white woman
attracted nationwide attention, she
said: ain a democracy we cannot
have 100000 who are denied
rights as citizens. Those rights are:
equal opportunity for employment
