BY ormond Webster

ATLANTIC CITY, N. 1.-THE
Young Mems Christian Associa-
iton in its 45th international con.
vention here this week voted to
welcome all minority groups into
the Association.
The decision follows in the step,
of the Y. w. C. A. which earlier
in month convened here and
adopted program recommend
ing the inclusion of colored women
and girls" in the main stream of
association life. One Y. w. c.
A. recommendation called for the
appointment Of an interracial COM
mittee in each Of the 434 Y. w.
C. A. communities to further the
indignation of other minority races
into the association" Only a few
scattered hands were raised in
opposition during the voting by
5000 delegates to the Y. W. C. AS
18th annual convention.
By comparison, opposition to
the Y. NJ. c. A. wide-open door
policy was more pronounced,
mostly evinced by delegates from
Dixie states. But the anti-bias
resolution was overwhelmingly
adopted by the more than 1000
delegates.
In presenting the resolution call
ing on all local Y. M. c. A. or
CARNATIONS in the United States
and Canada to dedicate themselves
to the task ahead, and urging that
"all men, without regard to racial
or national origin, share just y
and equally, according to merit,

tural and political heritage. tie
committee on recommended oas
said it had observed with satisfae-
tion the upward trend in interra-
cial relations With nthe Y. N. c
A. since 1881, when a racial equal
ity resolution was adopted.

for Tobin to appoint a ttlL-time
