OHIO CONFERENCE OF
BRANCHES URGES VETS
RIGHTS IN SERIES
OF RESOLUTIONS

DAYTON, Ohio-At a meeting of
the Ohio Conference of Branches
of the NAACP. delegates repre-
senting 20 branches with an ag-
gregate membership of $4,000 met
here October 27-2S, to adopt a series
of strongly worded resolutions as
blueprints for future action in deal
ing with statewide problems.
The speedy enactment of a State
Fair Employment Practices law
was urged by the conference. Each
branch was urged to be on the
alert to safeguard the interests of
returning veterans and to assist
them in securing their rights in the
area of full employment, housing
and all other benefits provided by
state and federal legislation.
Going step further on the vet
erans' question, the conference ask
ed that "all branches go on record
as insisting on complete integra-
ton of patients, doctors, dentists.
nurses, technicians and adminis-
trative personnel in all veteran IA
eilities and that committees be ap-
pointed by every branch to visit
such hospitals with the purpose of
determining their policies and prac-
tices in this respect and report
same to the National Office"
Another resolution was adopted
insisting on "the complete and i'm
mediate cessation of segregation in
the armed forces" and urging that
promotions an assignments be
made on the basis of merit and
ability"
Anent housing and urban re-
development. resolution was
adopted deploring "the failure of
the Ohio legislature to enact legis
lation enabling local communities
to sponsor public housing and ade-
quate urban redevelopment to ell
inmate sluns and blighted areas: .
and endorsing and urging 1.-THE
speedy enactment of the Wagner
Ellender Bill to establish a ma
tional housing policy with adequate
appropriation to render it effec-
tive"
The conference condemned "the
INCREASING practice of local Boards
of Education throughout the state
of establishing and extending. rae
ial segregation in public schools
contrary to the established legis-
lative policy of the state" 1t also
went on record as opposing and
condemning "all forms of racial
aggregation or discrimination in in
stitutions maintained by public
funds"
In its concluding resolution, the
group asked each branch to petition

pending legislation: Full employ

Prophets Start
On As Baseball

LOS ANGELES, Feb. II. (UP)-
Among the guys who start talking
about the Pacific coast baseball in
February-and there's a lot Of them
those who are sure in what order
the teams are going to finish long
before the season starts already
have pegged the Hollywood Stars
as the number one team and the
Los Los Angeles Angels as number
eight.
On paper, which isn't worth the
pencil it's written on with, the
Twinks stack up as potent aggre-
CATION, something they were fer all
but those fatal last four weeks OF
1914.
Their infield, with Butch Moran
at first base, either Ken Richard
son or George Young at second,
with or without the induction
awaiting Ted Davis at shortstop
and with neophyte manager Buck
Fausett at third, shapes up as
among the very best.
Brooks Holder, Les Powers, Roy
Younker, Ben Cantrell and perhaps
Richardson will be an adequate, if
not slugging outfield. Jim Hill and
Bill Brenzel will be sufficient be-
-the-pat support for the Stars
pitching staff, which is virtually the
same as it was last year.
If Fausett can do things with
that pitching staff that Charlie
Root couldn't do, the Stars may
surprise the guys who wait until the
end of the season to decide which
team is best.
Meanwhile the Angeles, bisected,
disected and vivisected by the par
ent Chicago Cubs and several hum
dred other baseball teams, have
only a meager supply of talent.
Manager Bill Sweeney can gaze
with pleasure upon the physigo-
Monies of Reggie Otero, fancy
fielding and surprise hitting first
baseman, pitcher Don Osborn,
catcher Bill Sarni, infielderS Guy
Miller and Stan Gray and possibly
Boyd Tepler, the strikeout artist
exiled to and recalled from Nash
Vile.
