NINA Scores Regional
Medical Schools

NEW YORK, Aug. %. CAMP
The plan to establish regional
medical schools for Negroes was
denounced last week by DR.. J. A.
C. baltimore, president o fthe
National Medical association, at
the annual meeting of the NINA.
The NINA held it's business
meetings and panle discussions at
Wadleigh high, and held clinics
and laboratories at seven local
hospitals.
Judge Francis E. Rivers of City
court, welcomed delegates and also
gave the dedication address for
Mt Morris Park hospital. The N
MA presented it's 1913 distin-
guished service medal to DR.. w.
G. Alexander of Orange, N. J.
DR.. baltimore spoke against
the regional plan during a panel
discussion on the topic, and intro
gional medical schools. The board
duced a resolution against re-
of trustees is scheduled to vote
on the subject.
Doctors favoring the plan said
that these schools would ease ra-
cial tension and would increase
opportunities or training colored
physicians.
The NINA president pointed out
that this solution would be un-
democratic. The aim should be to
make facilities available on a non
racial basis. Negroes, as tax pay
ing American citizens are entitled
to full use of public facilities, he
said.
It will be operated on a non
profit basis as a community hos.
pital. DR.. Cecil Marquee is presi.

ORDERS HALT
ON HEARING
AGAINST Clio

In what amounts to temporary
halt on a hearing on the actions by
Superior Judge Robert NJ. Jones.
the State Supreme court last Sat
urday ordered the King County SUI
perior court to show cause April %
why it should not be refrained per-
manently from hearing a petition
seeking to dissolve Local I. Can
merry Workers Union (CIO). The
hearing also involves contempt
charges against some of the unions
officers who refused to obey q
court order to produce certain
union records.
Matias Lagunilla. senior trustee
of Local 7, was sentenced to Jail
April by Judge Jones for dis
obeying a court order to produce
certain union records. Lagunilla was
ordered released last Monday by the
Supreme Court, and a hearing to
show cause why his release should
not be made permanent also has
been set for April 49,
The litigation is the outgrowth
of a dispute between former local
Officers, who were ousted by the
international. and present officers.
The former officers have formed
the independent Seafood Workers
Union independently.
George Minato, executive board
member of Local T. explained the
situation In this statement to THE
NORTHWEST TIMES:
The whole legal tangle started
when the dissenters petitioned the
courts to dissolve Local 7 Cannery
Workers & Farm LaborerS Union.
AT the outset. our international
Union the Food Tobacco. Agri
cultural 81 Allied We DIRK err S
Union of America, was made party
of the suit, and not the Cannery
Workers e. Farm Laborers Union,
which is separate entity and
which the court is seeking to dis
solve.
Recently, the court ordered the
International representatives to
surrender the Cannery Workers
Unions books. but the union took
the position that if the court wishes
to dissolve the local. the cannery
workers union and not some other
organization should be named the
party in the suit.
Representatives of the interna-
tional were fined for failure to sur
render the records as directed. It
was physical impossibility for
them to do SO since they did not
have access to the records"
