Court Backs Up D. G.
Branch Of Uni. Women

WASHINGTON, May Is. GAN
P)-The anti-Negro Washington
branch of the American Associa-
ton of University women won the
first legal round against the ma
tional organization last week when
District Court Justice F. Dickin-
son Let's signed a Temporary re-
straining order to keep the AAUW
from taking any atcion against
local branch before May II.
May II the first preliminary
hearing of an injunction against
the parent group will take place.
The rift between the national
and local groups began 18 months
ago when the D. C. branch re-
fused to accept Mrs. Mary Ter
rell, a colored woman who had
been accepted by the national
group, and widow of a former
municipal court judge.
The national group gave the
local branch until may 6 to change
, it's membership rules or be ex-
. cluded from the association. Last
week the D. C. women voted to
keep membership rules as they
are.
The court order stymies the
national organization from taking
any action at all against the local
group. If the preliminary injunc-
ton is granted the national group
could do nothing until the D. c.

Segregation Of coIored
From White utherans

In all the history of Dayton
there has never been a colored
Luthern church until two years
ago, when the Lutherans of this
community decided to start a
colored Lutheran church where
they could go and worship with
out the feeling that they was not
wanted in the church. So a group
of people of this city got togeth-
er and bought a house on Ger
mantown street in which to start
this church, then after the white
Lutherans saw that the Negroes
wanted a church of their own
and, then they offered their hel.
And naturally the colored people
wanted help because they didn't
have much to finance to estab-
lish the sort Of church that they
wanted. So that is Why there is
a colored Lutheran church for all
that want to attend.

Things Worth While

Are we living in the days of
Noah? The world will not get
very far, without the efforts of
good people. Good people must
remain on the job at all times, the
evils of the world are still ram
pant. There have always been a
few people, who thinks for the
masses and their welfare, these
are things worth while, as long as
there is life and the sun still
shines there is hope for us all.
We must be willing to replace
our selfishness and meanness with
helpfulness. We must think and
live for others as we'll as our
selves.
Humanity today stands at the
crossroads in an effort to catch
a vision of hope, hope and charity
have no boundaries, they began
with God; let him have his way
and we shall have peace.

COP fuctions oqree
or war platform

PHILADELPHIA - Wall
Streets war drive dominates
the platform on which COP
nominees will run for office.
AS presented to the conven-
ton in yelled language, that
platform declares that
Maintenance of armed serv-
ices for air, land and sea to de-
gree which will insure our ma
tionai security" is one of the
prime obiectives of the Republi-
cans in ls4s.
The platform also sanctions the
draft:
'We favor sustained, effective
action to procure sufficient man
power for the services. -
KNOWLEDGE that peace
time draft is a new departure
and alien to American traditions
is admitted in the COP attempt
to establish a new American
principle that every citizen has
an obligation of service to his
country" in the armed forces in
peacetime.
Acceptable to even the "isola-
ZIONIST" Chicago Tribune, the
platform hailed by Herbert
Hoover, refurbished for the oc-
casion, as marking 'Ethe death of
isolationism" Hoover, however,
went beyond any specific state
ment in the purposely vague plat
form by calling for an alliance
with the puppet governments of
western Europe He called this
giving strength and unity to the
nations of western Europe"
In support of Wall Streets pro-
gram for domination of the
world, and especially the non
popular governments OF western
Europe, the platform cited .sthe
Western hemisphere defense pact
as a useful model"
=
AS ACCOMPLISHMENTS of
the GOP-dominated 89th Con-
greSs, the platform pointed with
pride to enactment of "a military
rnanpower law" the Funification

cry" program for Europe.

high prices, the COP offered the
