 One of the resolutions passed by the conferences commended the daily newspapers carrying the, syndicated articles of Wal ter White, NAACP National Secretary. This inclusion was considered wise and far-sight- d contribution toward building better race relations through the public press.
 Other resolutions urged adop- tion of law to make illegal all forms of racial or religious re- strictive covenants in instru- ments dealing with real estate, amendments to the State Public Schools Act prohibiting prac- tiees of segregation by local Boards of Education, more eff fective enforcement of the Ohio Civil Rights Statute, a strong state Planning board to place Public Works, unemployment compensation, a comprehensive labor law and fair benefit legis- lation for veterans.
 The conference "deplored the U. s. Army's disregard of the Gillem Report which would have provided measures for in tegrating Negroes into all it's branches, as well as a segre- gated National Guard.

PRISON VIOLATION CHARGES INCREASE WARDEN MAKES DENIAL

For more than two weeks now charges and denials have been flying back and forth between State Representative Charles Henchel of New Haven and Warden Ralph H. Walker about gambling and liquor playing important roles at the Osborn Prison Farm in Enfield and Wethersfeld State Prison.
 MT. Henchel's claim is that gambling, liquor drinking and even the out side placement of bets on horse racing has gone on unabated. He also suggests that some of these practices came. into the prison set-up as result of the incarceration of the Ringling Bros. circus men.
 As result of these charges it is alleged that new restric- tions have been placed on the inmates of both institutions, though the formal evidence for the charges has not yet been submitted to Governor Baldwin or Warden Walker.
