There are many dramatic e.

THE COMMODORE is an at
tractive book, interspersed with
appropriate illustrations by AL
bert Gold. It is the latest addition
to the Jacob r. Schiff Library of
Jewish Contributions to Ameri-
can Democracy. It was worthy
of inclusion in this series, for the
man whose story it tells contri-
buted unselfishly to his country.
His final act epitomized a lifetime
of service, and it is good that the
young American Jewish reader
know of it. For it was Commo-
dore Levy who presented a re-

the United States as a lasting
memorial to his ideal American,
Thomas Jefferson.

Efforts for Church

The directors Of the Washing

terday pledged themselves to a
vigorous effort to eliminate racial
and other distinctions in WASH
ington churches.
1.-THE churches are now con-
fronted with an unacceptable call
and that is more fully to prac-
tice what they have declared and
preached" said DR.. Frederick E.
Reissig, executive secretary, in .
statement which the board ap-
proved.
The statement declared that
much of the progress in break
ing down the walls of separation
between Gods children is due
to the teachings of the Christian
church. We must confess. how
ever, that the church has. in
many respects, Jagged behind
some of the So-called secular
groups and organizations i.
We make this confession with q
deep sense of shame and in the
spirit of penitence."
The board asked for "a new.
earnest and vigorous effort to
make our churches churches Of
j all people without distinction of
color, race, or economic or cul-
tural status"
The board directed its Com

Maryland U. May Lei
Negro Teachers Go
To Summer Glasses
BY the Asseeiated Press

BALTIMORE, June ia ma
jority of members of the Uni
versity of Maryland Board Of
Regents has agreed that Negro
teachers may be admitted for
summer school courses at the
College Park campus, it was re-
ported last night.
DR.. Louis L. Kaplan, head Of
a special committee named by
the board to study segregation.
made the announcement.
He said he had taken a tele-
graphic canvass of the regents
and that affirmative replies came
from seven of them. The other
four had not been heard from
yet. The board does not meet
again until June 25.
First Step to Ease Rules.
It was the university's first
concrete step to ease the rules
banning Negro undergraduates
from the university. However,
Negroes have been admitted since
1850 to the graduate schools.
The latest action would apply
to those Negro teachers who are
residents of the State.
It includes those who are
normal school graduates and are
working toward a bachelors de-
gree during the summer. and to
those who already have educa-
tional degrees but are taking
courses to renew their certif1-
Gates.
Negro teachers who fall in
those categories in the past have
been granted scholarships from
the State to study outside of
Maryland. Presumably they will
still have this privilege, DR..
Kaplan said. He added that Ne
groes who are not teachers and
those living outside Of Maryland
will not be admitted to summer
school.
Registration Set Monday.
Registration is set for Monday
with classes to begin Tuesday.
No Negroes have applied for
admission to the school of edu-
cation for summer studies, ac-
cording to G.. Watson Algire,
director of admissions.
DR.. Kaplan explained that his
four-member committee planned
to ask State Attorney General
Edward q. e. Rollins for q for
NAL ruling on the legal aspects
Of the segregation question. He
said there may be some delay In
this step.
The Supreme Court held re-
Gently that segregation in the
Nations public schools is un-
constitutional. Mr.. Rollins has
advised the State Department of
Education to continue segrega-
ton IN county schools and teach
ers' colleges until the high court
hands down final decision for
implementing the ruling.
