DR.. Abram Leon Sachar,
president Of Brandeis Uniyer-
sity, warned the B,nai Birth
Women, meeting here in a ma
tional convention, not to listen
to voices preaching danger
Gus ueo-isolationism.
He called this trend defeatist
and escapist. and urged the
women to raise their defenses
against the cynics. fiashy YER
balizers. and bankrupt admin
istrators who form the van
guard of this movement.
DR.. Sachar spoke yesterday
at o luncheon meeting Of the
B'nai Birth Women's Supreme
Council being held at the
Shoreham Hotel. The council
is the national governing body
for 10000 women through
out the United States and Can
ada. Earlier, the support Of
the B'nai Birth Women in the
campaign against polio was
hailed by Miss Elaine White
law, director of women's activ-
tiles for the National Founda-
ton for Infantile Paralysis.
Praised DIR. SaIk
She called the discovery by
DR.. Jonas Edward Salk of the
polio vaccine a planned mir
acle which was as much a tri-
umph of B'nai Birth Women
and other volunteer associa-
tiorfs as 1t was of science. The
mention of DR.. Salk was
greeted with a standing oya-
ton and q resolution express
ing the joy and relief felt by
parents everywhere that the
dread scourge of polio win soon
be lifted from the land" was
passed unanimously.
On a more somber note, the
B'nai Birth Women observed a
minute of silence to mark the
death of DR.. Albert Einstein.
Mrs. Ida Cook Farber, Of
Brooklyn, N. Y, a Past Presi-
dent of the B'nai Birth
Women's Supreme Council,
read q message from Philip M.
Klutznick, President of B'nai
Birth. which hailed DR.. Elm

and mankind everywhere"

WEDNESDAY, APRIL 20, 1866 L
Mrs. Griffiths Denounces
Home Economics Cutbacks

mittee Of the Senate Appro-
priations Committee:
1.-THE recent drastic change
in the research activities Of the
Department of Agriculture is a
threat to the happiness and
Well-being of every home in
the Nation.
1.-THE basic ingredients Of
our rising standard of living
are jeopardized by this re-
search change and I am happy
to speak out against a policy
which is so shortsighted and
so minded"
February Order
Mrs. Griffiths said she was
referring to the February IS
order Of DR.. Byron T. Shaw.
director of the Agricultural
Research Service of the Agri-
culture Department. which she
said, has virtually eliminated
home economics from the de-
partment's basic research pro-
gram"
Under DR.. Shaw's order, all
but $4,000, or Is per cent, Of
the departments $1.426. 900
fund for home economics and
food research will in the next
fiscal year be shifted to food
and nutrition studies. This is
a cutback from 1854, 900 being
spent on home economics re-
search in the current year.
Research, leading to infor-
nation bulletins, on home APP
planes like stoves, refrig-
orators and washing machines,
will cease completely under
the revised program. along
with research on clothing and
household textiles.
Particularly deploring the
latter, Mrs. Grifflths listed the
development of children's play
SunsuitS and snowSuits as
among the accomplishments of
the agency's clothing research
program. Recommendation Of
light, instead Of dark clothing
for children, as a safety meas
ure to make them more easily
seen by motorists, was another
achievement. she said. Still
another was development of
simple, basic work clothes for
women.
