NEW YORK-(GlobaD-An an
nouncement that series of annual
awards will be sponsored by Global
News Syndicate for journalism and
public service, was made this week
by julius J. Adams, Executive Di-
rector of the Syndicate, following
Ia meeting of the Board of Direct
ors.
Tentative plans" Mr.. Adams
said, call for a gold medal and a
cash prize for the top writer, with
smaller cash prizes for runners up,
Also, there will be Certificates of
Merit to newspapers and to out
standing individuals for public ser
vice particularly in the field Of hui
man relations.
eve feel there. is a great need
for providing some kind of recog-
milton for writer's on the weekly
newspapers, who are hardly con
sidered for the awards and honors
that go annually to writer's on the
daily newspapers, Mr.. Adams said
The Syndicate head said he has
strongly supported the idea of a.
wards and deeply regretted the
failure of the sponsors of the Wen.
dell L. Willkie Award Committee
to make their program work.
"The plan is an excellent one,
Mr.. Adams said, "and will be draft
ed and managed so as to give rec
ignition to members of the journal
istic fraternity as a means of en-
couraging initiative, good writing
and public service.
Until recently" Mr.. Adam:
continued, eve haven't had mucl
really good writing on the Negro
newspapers and few had developed
really good reporters. This was
! due partly to the immaturity OF
the press itself and partly to the
inexperience Of the writer's. Today
that has changed greatly and is
getting better as time goes on
Not only has the writing in the
Negro newspapers improved, but
practically every weekly newspaper
in the country has several writers
that could properly be classed as
star reporters. Most Of them are
directed by well-trained and com
petent editors"
Mr.. Adams said he was not sure
that awards for 1851 would be made
this year, but said some of the Di-
rectors felt that if the program
could be completed in time, they
would be made, most likely, at

Committee IS
Urged TO Report
On Bias Bill

WASHINGTON, D. C. (NNPA)
The Senate Interstate and For
eign Commerce Committee was
urged last Thursday by Senator
Hubert H. Humphry, Democrat, of
Minnesota, to report favorably the
bill prohibiting racial discrimina-
ton and segregation against inter-
state passengers.
In letter to Senator Edwin c..
johnson, Colorado, chairman of the
Interstate and Foreign Commerce
Committee, which Senator Humph-
ry made public the Minnesotan. de-
clared that the proposed legisla-
ton sis perfectly consistent with
the declared and established pub
lie policy Of our country as repre-
sented by prior actions of the Con-
gress and decisions of the Supreme
Court"
Senator Humphrey also made
public a favorable report on the
bill from the Interior Department,
declaring that at is apparent that
the prompt and effective elimina-
ton of discrimination and segre-
cation on common carriers oper-
ating in interstate commerce re-
quires the enactment" of legis-
lation forbidding such practices.
In his letter to Senator Johnson,
Senator Humphrey wrote that the
ruling of the Supreme Court in
the case of Elmer w. Henderson,
director of the American Council
on Human Rights, twas a specific
step forward toward making clear
to the world that the ideals of our
nation for the establishment of
human dignity are being realized"
Senator Humphrey added:
"That decision, however, did not
explicitly deal with every phrase
of discrimination on interstate
railroads. Great progress has been
made in interstate transportation
but a number of railroads con-
tinued the evil of segregation.
"The most efficient way of meet
ing this problem is for Congress
to meet up to its responsibility and
enact our bill, S. 1886, so as to
eliminate discrimination and segre-
cation on common carriers once
and for ALL"
The bill would prohibit discrimi-
nation and segregation because OF
race, color, religion, or national
origin. directed at any persons
travelling on a common carrier on
gagged in interstate commerce. I'm
der the terms of the bill, any car
rier, or officer, agent or employee
of a carrier engaging in such prac.
tees would be subject to fine
of not more than 1000, and also
would be subject to a damage sui
by the injured person

News Syndicate Announces Awards
For journalism And Public Service

News Syndicate Awards will come
to have real meaning" Mr.. Adams
said. "This can be achieved only
if we get the full support of the
Press in our efforts. One of the
weaknesses of the Willike Awards
was that the winners were determ-
ined on too narrow a basis"
1t will be recalled that the first
winner of the sWillkie Award was
Miss Almoni Davis, of the Los An
geles Tribune for a piece about
the love-llte on negro men. There
were persons who thought second
prize winners-P. Bernard Young
of the Journal and Guide for his
reporting of the activities at the
United Nations conference in San
Francisco, and John H. Young for
his series on the South for the
Pittsburgh Courier = gave better
examples of present day journal
ism. This was not intended to inn
ply that Miss Davis piece was not
a well-written, delightful story
The Awards Committee was domi-
mated by whites and it was felt
that their choice of the Fighter
piece as best highlighted the atti-
tude many white people still have
regarding the seriousness of the
Negro Press in American journal.

states that the library will have
open house following the audi
forum program. Many organiza-
tons and Individual well-wishers
are sending flowers for the occas-
ion.
Mrs. Lyells states that it quite
unique in library lore to open
with a completely new set-up in
Guiding building, books, and furni-
ture-and even staff, she added.
While her first library job was at
the Auburn Branch in Atlanta, the
major part of her professional ex-
perience has been in the college
library. Miss Vivian Romans, libra
rian assistant at the College Park
Branch, is new in the library field.
Around a thousand adults and
children's books will be on the
shelves for the open house. New
books will be added at the rate of
100 volumes per month. The libra
ry is equipped all out with the
newest in library furniture. A
trend design desk of Northern
birch has cradle-type suspension
drawers to facilitate the librarians
working while seated. The tables
chairs, and shelving are also OF
birch. The light furniture forms
a pleasing contrast for the natur-
al-lighted room which is painted a
soft green.
1t is expected that Jackson citi-
zens who have long complained OF
the lack of library facilities vii
turn out in large numbers to vel
come this step forward by the
custodians of public funds.
