The voteless District League OF
Women Voters elected Mrs. John +
Thomas president and adopted a
program Of action for the coming
year at the annual all-day meeting
held yesterday in Pierce Hall.
A resolution calling for the "elimi-
nation Of racial discrimination In
services OF the Government" was
passed during the afternoon session
After q spirited debate, two pro-
posals originally included in the
resolution, calling for "intergroup
education In the public schools" and
adult education In the commu-
nifty" were referred to the board OF
directors for further study and def
milton.
The argument was precipitated
when a member called on the league
to amend the proposal for Inter
group education" to state that
the organization would work for the
eventual elimination of the dual sys-
tenn in the public schools. The sub
ject was sent back to the board,
however, when members were unable
to agree on the terminology OF the
recommendation.
Spokesman for the Committee on
Minorities said the "intergroup edu-
cation" plan called for such activi-
ties as intergroup academic ex-
changes and workshops.
The league also .reafirmed its
stand for local self-government and
national representation In q motion
which was unanimously adopted.
The group voted to work for COM
munity education on the suffrage
issue, q suitable charter for the Dis
trict, and q constitutional amend
ment enabling Congress to grant
representation in the Congress and
among the electors Of President and
vice President to the people Of the
District. '''s 'sss'''s
The league also unanimously voted
In favor OF q study Of the reorgani-
cation OF the District government,
with particular reference to the es-
tablishment of a welfare depart
ment as an integral part Of the Dis
trict government, a new school code
to reorganize and centralize admin
istration Of the public school sys-
TEN, and q centralized labor depart
ment ito insure better enforcement
OF labor laws Of the District.
Other matters to be taken up dur
ing the coming year will include a
