SENATOR
LEHMAN URGES
SUPPORT FOR
NAACP

Senator Herbert H.. Lehman
ID, N. " has issued the follow
ing endorsement Of the NAACP
Fighting Fund for Freedom"
The vigorous work of the Ma
tional Association for the. Ad-
vancement of Colored People to
eradicate discrimination and seq
gregation from American life is
a true service to the nation and
to the world.
We Americans are richly en-
dowed with a Constitution which
safe guards human freedom. Each
effort of the NAACP to apply
the high principles of our Con-
stitution to our everyday life
strengthens that document and
adds to its luster.
Whenever the NAACP's voice is
lifted in protest against injustice,
millions of Americans are inspir-
ed to support the simple demand
that fair play prevail for all our
citizens.
We are in sight of the goal OF
freedom and equal justice for all
of our people without regard to
race, color, religion or national
origin. All American citizens
should join, by every means pos
sible, including substantial sup
port of the Fighting Fund for
Freedom, to promote the objec-
tlves of the NAACP objec-
tives toward which America must
never cease TO strive.

Lack Of Financing
Barrier To Housing

World War II, when almost
100000 non-whites moved to
oev locations, mostly from the
farms to industrial areas. Now
representing 10 per cent of the
population, they are housed lin
less than 9 percent of the nations
occupied dwelling units, and over
crowding among them is four
times as bad as it is among White
families.
In addition to encouraging the
construction of new homes for
Negro families, Spiegel said the
builders association is actively
trying to improve their housing
standards through its nationwide
slum rehabilitation program and
through the new conditioning
of good older houses which can
be given many added years OF
useful life at moderate cost.

Parents, Teachers,
Students, Discuss
AbsenteeisTr1

All classroom teachers of Lib
erty Elementary School met with
the principal, Mrs. Gill, a num-
Der of interested parents, and
members of the Students Welfare
Group on Thursday, August q
for the purpose of discussing ways
and means of eliminating tardi-
ness and drastically reducing
sbSenteeism for this term.
Following an interesting dis
cusSion it was agreed that:
/. Hardness and abSenteeism
have both taken on vast proper
tons in recent years and are ma
tionally recognized as great evils
in all communities. These prob
lens can be handled only by the
whole hearted and effective CO.
operation of parents and guar
dianS.
2. Parents and guardians would
become as alarmed a. teachers
are if they realized the harm that
is being done to children by al
lowing them to form habits of
hardness and absenteeism.
3. In his nursery school and
kindergarten days the child was
taught by use of Mother Goose
Rhymes 1.-THE Ten O'clock
Scholar" and others to look with
disfavor upon boys and girls who
came into the classroom late.
Why has he changed his attitude
towards hardness?
4. It is equally as unfair to the
child to allow to stay out OF
school one, or more days, or even
a part Of a day, for minor, non
important, or trivial reasons,
causes or excuses.
5. Our children are now form
ing habits and building attitudes
which will greatly affect them in
after life, when they have become
men and women.
6. We should teach children to
budget their time. To do the prop
er thing at the right time, and
to get to school on time.
7. We should teach children that
every day counts. Not one day
can or shiuld be lost from the
classroom.
8. Teachers need more and bet
ter parental cooperation at all
times, but especially in their eff
forts to eliminate hardness, anC
reduce absenteeism from thu
classrooms of our schools. One
way to do this is to teach child
rem that lost time can never bt
regained.
Lost, somewhere between sun
set
Sixty golden minutes
Each studded with sixty diamond
seconds
No reward is offered
They are gone for evermore."

Philadelphia, Sept. "a build
ing industry leader said today that
lack of adequate financing is the
biggest existing barrier to the
production of good housing for
Americas 100000 Negroes.
In a speech prepared for de-
livery before the 1858 Conference
of the National Urban League,
Emanuel M. Spiegel, president o.
the National Association of Home
Builders, said the Negro housing
problem also has been aggravated
by racial misunderstanding and
the big population shifts Of the
past l3 years.
The New Jersey builder eau
toned that there is no quick and
easy solution" to the problem,
but he said much progress has
been made in the recent years and
even greater gains can be made
if the mortgage drought is
broken.
He said NAHB is actively en-
couraging its builder-members to
enter the non-white housing field,
not as philanthropic gesture but
as a matter of good, sound bust
ness" He urged the league te
stimulate greater activity in this
market by Negro builders and in
vestment groups, pointing out that
it represents a vast and practi-
cally-untapped market for de-
velopment.
Spiegel cited government sta
tiStics to show that the annual
earnings of the average Negro
family have tripled since 1910 and
that increasing numbers of them
have moved out of the low income
brackets into the great middle
income group which makes W
the mass market for the products
| Of American industry.
The demand for Negro housing
is broadest in the lower priced
field, but it is not confined to thai
area, he said. Experience in re-
cent years has proved conclusive
ly that Negro families want anc
can pay for good housing IN al
price ranges. In Washington, DC
for example, large, modern
apartment developments hav,
been built for Negro occupanc.

to more than $3.50 month. The.

The NAHB official said mort.
gage lenders now recognize thu
Negro as a first-class credit risl
and are increasingly willing t
cooperate with builders in pro-
viding housing for this large mi.
nority group.
