HONEY AND LEMON BEAUTY

HONEY AND LEMON BEAUTY
After cleansing the face thor
oughly, mop it over with honey.
Over this lay slices of lemon
and allow this treatment to re-
main undisturbed for about a
half hour or even an hour. Then,
remove the lemond and sponge
the face off with very cold
water. You will find that the
pores have closed and the tex
ture Of the skin will be like satin
while the face will be one or two
shades fairer. This will make
the skin finer grained. For
quick magical facial treatment,
nothing surpasses this.

SIS Million School
Aid Before Congress

Congress today was consider
ing a $25.190,000 request from
President Truman to aid school
districts faced with supplying new
facilities resulting from Federal
expansion in their areas.
Maryland and Virginia would
share in this program, but not
the District. An exact breakdown
of the figures was not Immediately
available.
This supplemental request.
which the President yesterday
forwarded to Congress, includes
sails million to. construct the
most urgently needed facilities.
It also embraces SO million for
surveys Of school facilities by the
States and $500 900 for admins
tration Of the program.
Legislation authorizing the pro-
gram has passed both houses
and is expected to go to President
Truman Immediately for his sigma
ture.
Federal activities in certain sec
tions Of the Nation have caused
increased school enrollments,
casting a financial burden on the
local communities. To compen-
safe for this, President Truman
and Congress are urging that the
States be given financial aid to
assist in carrying the burden.
The President wants the funds
appropriated before Congress ad-
journs.

Israel Confirms Seizure
OF Disputed Territory
By the Asseeintad Press

TEL AVN. Israel, Sept. 13.-An
Israeli army spokesman said today
that his country had taken control
of disputed territory along the
Jordan River at the northern
boundary between the Hashemite
kingdom of Jordan and what was
formerly Palestine. He said Jews
already had begun to pillow up the
land in the area a week ago.
This confirmed at least partially
earlier reports from neighboring
Arab countries that Israel had Gin
vaded" the land. But the army
spokesman said the territory had
been granted to Israel under terms
Of the Arab-Jewish armiStice.
King Abdullah's government has
complained to the United Nations
that Jewish armed forces in a
surprise action violated the north
ern frontiers on the Jordan" and
occupied territory near the Ruten-

have said that if Richard attends
Washington-Lee the State Con-
stitution will not be violated. Mr..
Ransom agrees with this view.
Section 140 of the Constitution
says: White and colored children
shall not be taught in the same
school,"
u. S. Constitution Cited.
Mr.. Ransom said Tennessee
had interpreted a similar provi-
sion to mean white and colored
children can not be taught in the
same building but that he be-
lieves the Interpretation should
be that they would not be taught
''at the same time"
He added quickly, however, that
he does not believe the Virginia
provision is in accord with the
Federal Constitution and to this
extent is unconstitutional In a
Federal sense"
THE Federal and State Con-
situations are in conflict because
segregation is discrimination. The
Federal Constitution prohibits
discrimination against any citizen
because Of his race"

University Women
Ask College Merger
For Teachers Here

Consolidation of Wilson Teach
ers College for white students and
Miner Teachers College for col
ored was Endorsed today by the
Washington branch of the Ameri-
can Association of University
Women.
The organization made the rec
concentration in a letter to the
Board of Education.
The proposal was made recent
ly by DR.. Walter Hager, president
Of the Wilson Teachers College.
It touched off a controversy which
has been growing as various ele-
ments of the community lined UP
on one side or the other.
The organization stated that it
felt one teachers college "effec-
lively organized and equipped,
fully stated with a distinguished
faculty" would provide superior
education for prospective teach
ers. 1t also said one college would
provide training in democracy
which is not available in segre-
gated school system.
The Washington branch of the
American Association of Univer-
Sity Women some time ago was
involved in a fight over the ad-
mittance Of qualified Negro wom-
en-. The national association held
that any one qualified should be
admitted, regardless of race.
Those who disagreed in the
Washington branch withdrew and
formed the University Women's
Club, which now is operating as
an independent organization.
