To Map Civil
Rights Fight

STAUNTON, Va, Aug. 81. GA
NP)-The annual session of the
Virginia State NAACP confer
ence here October l to 8, will be
the most important in the history
of the conference, according to w.
Lester Banks, executive secretary.
The aim of this session is "to sur
vey the field of battle. and plan
u attack" he said.
Banks declared in announcing
the forthcoming sessio n that "a
challenge has been flung in the
face Of every Negro in the state
Of Virginia." adding that the
group plans to "survey the field
of battle and plant the attack"
"The NAACP accepts the chal-
lenge," Mr.. Banks said and he
appealed to members to "come
then, let us reason together at the
convention, lest we lose that which
we have gained"
The delegates, leaders and visi-
tors attending the sessions will be
entertained and welcomed by the
Staunton branch of the NAACP
which will be host to the conven-
ton. Arrangements will be made
locally by the Rev. T. J. Jemison,
president of the branch, and per-
sons appointed by him.
Banks resorted to. Virginia his
tory to bolster up the fighting
spirit of the NAACP, recalling
that it was a Virginian, Patrick
Henry, who said "Is life so dear
or peace so sweet as to be pur-
chased at the price of chains and
slavery?" Today Banks asserted,
the self same question must be
faced by every Virginia Negro,
and added.
"Are we willing to continue to
support a dual citizenship society
that advocates first and second
class citizenship, a type and pat
tern of thinking that was con-
ceived and ~nurtured solely for the
purpose of astening the yoke of
improperly about the neck OF
every person Of color?
ALREADY the lines of battle are
clearly drawn. The NAACP, thru
it's broad school facilities program,
has succeeded in focusing wide
attention on the. educational
abuses, as practiced under the
dual citizenship regime. Activities
in a number of school divisions is
progressing as planned.
To-day, we are voicing the con
clusion which was reached many
years ago, that is There is nc

Paint Murals fol
Golden State
Insurance Building

LUIS ANGELES, Sept. /. CAN.
P)-Two of the nations leading
painters, Hale Woodruff and
Charles Aston, have been COM
missioned to paint the murals of
the new ~skyscraper home of the
Golden State Insurance company,
1t was announced here last week.
Their work will depict the story
of 100 years of progress of Ne
groes in California. Miss Miriam
Matthews, Los Angeles city librar-
ian, will assist the artists in their
research work. So will Titus And
erson, a pioneer in this state.
Accompanying the artists on a
tour OF. the state will be Leonard
Grimes, assistant public relations
man o fthe company. The murals
will be painted in New York.
Woodruff is an instructor at
New York university, and Aston
painted the famous murals of the
Harlem hospital and at Talladega
college.

asked Negroes not to be so bellig-
erent in their demands.
Along the school line he asked
that they accept segregation if
necessary rather than go where
the whites do not want them. He
wrote:
"The situation would be great
ly bettered if the Negroes would
limit their insistence to these
things, for the present at least, in
communities where there are large
numbers of Negroes and where
there is considerable opposition
rather than demanding that their
education must necessarily be in
the company of whites-despite
objections from the latter.
eff the Negroes would follow
this course, as many of them un-
doubtedly would prefer, there
would be removed on the part of
some of the whites that Negroes
feel their rights must include OPP
position with the whites. If COM
plant is made that this policy in
wolves separation of the races, or
as it is sometimes called, segrega-
ton, that would seem, at least for
the present, better than associa-
ton forced legal measures"
Voluntary action by both whites
and colored should be the rule to
make the United States the ideal
democracy we desire, he con-
cluded.

Social Welfare Farley
Opening tomorrow

More than $50 volunteer and pro-
fessional leaders of national well
fare agencies will assemble here to-
morrow for the three-day National
Conference on Social Welfare Needs
and Workshop for Citizens Groups.
The sessions, to be held in the
Hotel Washington, are being spon-
sored jointly by the National Social
Welfare Assembly and Community
Chests and Councils, Inc. The for
mer comprises 48 governmental and
private welfare agencies and the
latter, 800 Community Chests and
similar agencies.
The conference has been indorsed
by President Truman in a letter to
Frank We'll, chairman of the assem-
bly's Executive Committee.
ut is exceedingly important in q
democracy that the people under
stand and support effective meas
ures for the social welfare" Mr..
Truman wrote. "In this day espe-
cially, we must keep America strong
tahodSh l4elhAdl "Cll~bCIlSy loA
thereby we exemplify and fulfill our
national purpose before the
world. e"
Social well-being in our country
is most fully attained when our
people join forces through their
Government and through their
voluntary organizations" he con-
tinued.
The Government must carry the
basic responsibility; voluntary ef-
fort has an equally significant role.
1t is the agency of education; It
shows the way in experimental ef-
forts; it does some of the more
personal and intimate things that
Government cannot do ."
Findings and recommendations of
the conference will be reported to
affiliated groups in the fields OF
education, health, housing, recrea-
tion, social security, citizen par
ticipation and the special needs Of
children.
Speakers will include Federal Sc
curity Commissioner Oscar Ewing,
DR.. Donald S. Howard, director of
the Department of Social Works
Administration of the Russell Sage
Foundation and president of the
American Association Of Social
| Workers; Julius Schrieber, director
of the National Institute Of Social
Relations, and Leonard Mayo, chair

dent of Western Reserve University.

Life on 10 Acres-Dreams VS.. Chores

to me than cutting bean poles and
tomato stakes. My woods is over
grown with honeysuckle and UNDER
brush, and for every pole or stake
I cut whole area must be cleaned
out with a brush hook.
In an entire morning, the other
day, I managed only about II
stakes. 1t was one of those hot
days last week, and the woods held
the heat like an oven. This Is
job that should have been done in
the winter or early spring. So I
must pay in sweat for my lack Of
planning.
E. B. White coined more than a
phrase when he described a farmer
as a man with sense of humus.
I have come to believe so much IN
humus that I can picture in my
imagination the life that takes place
in my fields whep I pillow under a
rank growth of weeds. The sue
cessful farmers of the future, I be-
lieve, will be those who have highly
developed Mr.. Whites sense Of
humus.
Although the fertility of my fields
is low, I am now reaping the har-
vest that nature left during those
years my acres went untended. My
strawberry patch, notice, and the
long strips between the fruit trees
that were plowed for extra rows of
pess, are as soft and absorbent as
blotting paper. That mat of gold
en- rod and milk weed is doing me
good turn. I am rich in fumus.
