to 5 of minority groups on the

She stated that Alpha Kappa AL
pha women were unalterably OPP
posed to segregation and discrim-
ination it all its forms and that
segregation and discrimination
will be fought in any and all ways
that this bill did not include all
that might be desired generally
nor all that might be desired for
Negroes, but that it did go fur
Their than any previous bill; and
that it was a step in the right dir
ection but that the Alpha Kappa
Alpha women would not be con-
tent until the whole journey to alb
solute equality and freedom had
been completed. The council is ur-
cling all other organizations and
persons to request that the bill be
strengthened in the House of Re-
personalities where it will be

to it are requirements that assur-
ances be given that regulations be
provided for regarding the provi-
sions of facilities without discrin-
ination on account of race, crees
or color.
DR.. Ferebee stated that il is
gratifying to know that the United
States Senate has Incorporated
partially the requests of the Alpha
Kappa Alpha women in the Ma
tional Hospital Act of 1916. The
passage of this bill with the Sen
ate provisions, which we hope aIe
strengthed by the House, will do
much to raise the health standards
of minority groups. Our success
in this bill will only heighten the
determination of the Alpha Kappa
Alpha women to sponsor and work
for the passage of better legisla-
ton that will raise the standards
of all people in America.
Mrs. Johnson, who was the au-
thor of the amendments states
that an intense effort would be
made in the house to change the
wording of the provisions in the
House, to make the bill stronger
when it comes up for passage in
there. She also indicated that the
wording of the amendment with
regard to separate facilities need
ed changing from shall to may.
She expressed deep over
the fact that to date no word had
as yet been devised of compelling
the federal government to abol-
ish segregation, in grant-in-aid
programs to state governments
where the state pays part OF the
cost, in federal legislation Of this
kind. The only technique SO far
advanced, where there are state
laws compelling segregation, is to
compel an equitable distribution of
the funds so allotted, within the
limits of the state law of segrega-
ton while fighting state segrega-

History vas made in Congress
last week when three anti-discri-
mination provisions were added to
the National Hospital Construc-
ton Act which has been urged and
advocated by the National Non
Partisan Council on Public Affairs
of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority.
DR.. Boulding Ferebee appeared
before the Senate Education and
Labor Commute to request that
the bill then pending, which had
no safeguards, be amended. She
offered 8 anti-discrimination am

were generally encouched in the
three that were finally added to
the bill. An intense educational
campaign with the members of
the Committee by Mrs. Thonlasina

need for these amendments result

which prescribe that the state plan
shall provide for adequate hospi-

This anti discrimination provi-
sion also concerns the regulations
regarding the state plan that must

others, may require that before

cases where separate hospital ia
