Marylnd University
Summer School Hit
By NAACP Picketing

BALTIMORE, June "a - The
University of Maryland plans to
continue a special summer course
in Baltimore for Negro teachers
despite the fact that picketing has
driven off most of the students.
The NAACP has been picketing
the sessions being held at a Balti-
more high school, on the ground
the course furthers racial segrega-
ton.
Only two Negro teachers regist-
cred. But DR.. Harold Benjamin,
dean of the College of Education,
said the two would receive instruc-
ton. He had expected SO to 60.
He asked that the university be
given a sporting chance for at
least one year" to operate teach
er education program for Negroes.
DR.. Benjamin said the course
was established with tentative
staff of IA instructors "equal to the
best at College Park"

PhiIIy Adopts
FEPC Measure
NEGRO INDUSTRIAL PRESS

NEGRO INDUSTRIAL PRESS
PHILADELPHIA, Mar. IL -
(NIPS)-By a unanimous vote of
the 10 members of the City Council,
a Fair Employment Practices bill
was enacted into law during a reg
ular session of that body held
yesterday. Philadelphia thus has
joined the ranks of other large
metropolitan cities which have
adopted equable employment op-
portunities for minority groups.
Considerable interest has been
displayed in the bill since itS In
PRODUCTION by Councilmen Woodie
Armstrong, lone Negro member
from the 4th District; George Max
man, also of the 4th District; Louis
R. Schwarz, 9th District; and Coun-
Gil head Frederick Garman.
Although the bill had been ap-
proved by a subcommittee after a
hectic preliminary hearing during
which the opponents and proponents
of the bill had vigorously conducted
their positions, final adoption had
been delayed at the last regular
session Of the body.
The final debate was conducted
in an orderly fashion, and the more
than 500 gallery spectators who
were in attendance broke into spon-
taneous but subdued applause when
the tally was announced, since
unanimous approval had not been
anticipated.
AS finally passed, the ordinance
bans discrimination against en-
ployment opportunities because of
race, color, religion, or national
origin. A five member, non-salaried
commission is to administer the
law, and investigate all complaints.
Violators may be punished with
fines up to 500 or Jail terms of
80 days. The measure is applicable
to all employers who have 1 or
more employees on their payroll,
but does not include religious, ed
ucational, or charitable organiza-
tions.

suits were noted with interest by
a representative Of a large Billiard

Proving Our Beliefs

JUNIOR boys and girls will like
- this story about Lydia because II
is practical. We can see woman
opening her home to the preachers
of God. We can see her in her place
of business, inviting her, customers
to come and hear Paul preach. She
was a living sermon.
Every junior boy and girl in
every Sunday school in the United
States can render the same vital
service during 1948. There are
literally millions of boys and girls
in this country who have never
been to Sunday school. They do
not know anything about Sun
day school, but they would like to
know.
You can start a movement in
your community that will solve
problems that the mayor and police
cannot solve. They will thank you
for your help, and God will bless
you in time and eternity. Invite that
neighbor boy or girl to Sunday
school.

The Story of Lydia

GEE how the above truths are
- borne out in the story Of Lydia,
Acts 16:11-15. Here was a prosper.
GUS business woman, making an
honorable living, whose heart the
Lord opened" Paul taught her the
way of salvation. She and her house
hold were baptized, she took Paul
and his helpers into her home, and
became tower of strength as the
Gospel was being spread through
out Europe.
Lydia was not attracted to Paul
by his eloquent preaching, but by
the story of Gods love which Paul
faithfully gave. And when she had
been saved, she began immedi-
ately to translate her faith into
works.

With Mrs. Behrens

Regular April meeting of Han

noon in the home of Mrs. Win
field Behrens on w. Eighth st
Fourteen members were present
The meeting opened with the
regent presiding, in the usual
order, followed by reports of the
officers. Letters of thanks and
appreciation for donations from
the chapter were read from the
Ellis Island chairman, and from
Hillside Boys Schol, of Mullbor-
ough, Mass.
Mrs. P. o. Robinson and Mrs.
Robert Bowker gave interesting
flights of the state conven-
ton, held recently at Toledo. At
tention had been called to living
granddaughters, and especially
to Mrs. Mary Corbett, of Rich
wood, whose photograph and
story appeared in the April is

Hannah Emerson Dustin Chap
ter is pround to be again repre-
Sented among the State official
regime, in having Mrs. Bowker
elected to the position of State
Chairman of Junior American
Citizens. Mrs. Robinson former
ly held this position and was
later assistant to the National
chairman.
Mrs. Clair Thompson reviewed
briefly the Indian luncheon
which she attended, in connec-
ton with the International Kings
Daughters and Sons convention
held last week in Miami, Fla. The
speaker for the occasion was Mrs
M. F. Wittichen, Florida State
d. A. r. chairman of the Indian
work. Since both organizations
contribute along this line, it was
interesting to compare notes.
Mrs. B. o. Skinner read a very
interesting paper on Trees OF
the Seas, pointing out that un-
der sea plant life was necessary
to under-sea animal life. She
stated that some species of un-
der-sea trees match the giant
redwoods in size.

lowed and delightful refresh
