Brentwood Citizens
Hear Wender Tell
|0f Recreation Work

Harry s. Wender, past president
of the Federation Of Citizens Associ-
ations and chairman Of the Recrea-
ton Board, told the Brentwood Ter
race Citizens Association last night
that the welfare of their association
as a whole was the individual re-
sponsibility of each member.
"Act as though you were a member
of Congress representing the City Of
Washington" he said, illustrating
the need for active support through
group discussion and committee
action.
Addressing the association on its
second anniversary, Mr.. Wender
spoke in his capacity as chairman
of the Recreation Board, outlining
the work of integration and con-
solidation of several separate Gov
eminent agencies that resulted in
legislation setting up the board. Mr..
Wender emphasized that the four
lay majority members of the seven
person board must be five-year resi-
dents of the District.
This Is the first act of Congress
STIMULATING that only residents of the
District be appointed in a District
government Office" he added.
The association, shortly before
Mr.. Vendors talk, postponed action
on the Chavez bill, calling for the
same sort of restriction with refer
ence to presidential appointees to
District government Offices.
Further explaining the CONSOLE
dating work of the Recreation Board,
Mr.. Wender spoke of the boards
recent plan to appoint joint COM
mittee composed of officials of the
schools, the Recreation Department,
Municipal Architects ONCE and the
National Capital Parks ONCE, to
study the proposed sites OF schools
as to their combined suitability for
school and recreational use.
The committee will then report its
findings to the Recreation Board,
which will then proceed with ANAL
plans. Such program will remedy
lack Of planning which in the past,
said Mr.. Wender, has resulted In
waste Of building and land space.

DEGREES Fallacy

Progress OF the American Negro
has been speeded up by the war,
says Richard Wright in an inter-
view appearing in the current is
sue of TOMORROW magazine.
The increased migration OF the
Negro population to the North is
responsible for the change. he be-
lieves, but it is an unconscious
process rather than the conscious.
planned, progressive development
that it should be.
Mr.. Wright, whose childhood

the war has also exposed the fall
lacy OF the economic apologists
who claim that There's nothing
wrong with the South but that
jobs wouldn't cure Today, al
though there are plenty OF jobs.
the prejudices toward the Negro
remain and. even worse. more
than half OF all white Americans
hold the complacent belief that
the Negro receives tair treatment.
