The Common Defense
FOUR YEARS OF EFFORT = TO VICTORY
By REV. WILLIAM c. HERMAN

Back in 1945 alert residents Of
Miami Beach, Florida, aware that
hotels and apartment houses
were using advertising weighted
with racial and religious dis
elimination, undertook a survey
to determine the actual extent
of such practices.
What they found was alarm
ing enough to prompt the forma-
ton of committee of prominent
and civic-minded citizens, repre-
senting such organizations as the
B'nai Births defamation
League, whose sole purpose was
to further an educational cam
paign for the elimination Of dis
criminatory advertising.
The committees efforts were
fruitful up to a point. A number
of establishments voluntarily
changed their discriminatory adj
vertising and practices. But
others, turning deaf ears to the
educational appeal, refused to do
anything and continued to pub
fish their prejudices through
signs and other forms of public
announcements. Whereupon, it
became necessary for the Miami
Beach City Council to pass an
ordinance forbidding the display
of discriminatory advertisements.
Difficulties, however, lay ahead.
For, in July. 1947, the Dade
County Circuit Court held the
ordinance invalid on the ground
that the City of Miami Beach
did not have power under its
charter to enact such legislation.
Nothing daunted, the advocates
Of the ordinance perservered.

delay the ultimate accomplish
ment of the purpose in His Divine
Mind. There are many efforts to
turn back the clock of progress in
music. From time immemorial
music has been used to appeal to
the senses rather than the spirit,
and the Christian church has
been the haven Of rest for the
musicians who feed on soul-in-
spring music while the dance
hall, night club and cabaret have
held the monopoly of sensuous
music. But of late the churches
have begun to compete with the
dispensers Of rhythm, and have
succeeded in appealing to emo
tons of the flesh to large ex-
tent. However, as the program of
the Creator is progressive, these
new departures should rot cause
great alarm to those who 10 to

Wisdom and strength to do Thy Will

They decided against appealing
the Courts decision. Instead,
they sought passage of an enab-
ling act by the Florida State
Legislature recognizing the au-
thority Of the City of Miami
Beach to pass legislation of the
kind desired.
In May of this year the Legis-
lature adopted the enabling act,
and on June Is the City Council
of Miami Beach once again unan-
imously enacted into law its
anti discriminatory advertising
ordinance-this time with UNI
questionable authority.
From now on it is unlawful
and punishable offense in Miami
Beach "to maintain or display
any advertisement, notice or sign
which is discriminatory against

Appeals For Funds To Garry
Out The Fight
To the Editor of the Guardian:
The Greater Boston Commit
tee to Aid the Trenton Six has
been cheered by the announce
ment that New Jersey Supreme
Court has voted unanimously to
grant a new trial to the six men
who were unjustly convicted of
murder and sentenced to die. We
feel modestly proud that a small
part of the tremendous job of
insuring that decision was per-
formed by us.
The biggest job, however, is
yet to be done. The men must
actually be freed, Every effort
must be made to make certain
that in the new trial the men
are adequately defended. and
that the general public is kept
aware at all times of. what is
going on, SO that this time free
and importial justice shall be
given these men.
Such fight requires money.
We are, therefore, asking through
the medium of your paper that
any friend give a donation,
amount to be determined by
himself, to help us carry out this
fight, so well begun, to a COM
plete victory.
