James Av. N. Each OF the women
allege that the reason they were
not given full-time contracts was
on account Of race.
The Minneapolis School Board
refused TO participate officially in
the hearing because of an opinion
by its attorney Charles Howard,
that the school board and its ad-
nlinistration is not subject to the
city ordinance.
Two school board members were
present at the hearing, chairman
Gordon Mildxelson and Florence
Lehman along with Superfntend-
ent of Schools Rufus Putnam and

rector whose handling of the cases
of the three teachers is under

Douglas Hall, attorney and former
NAACP president.

The prime complaint made by
the three teachers Is that they
have been unable to obtain full
time teaching contracts in the Min
neapolis public schools because Of
their race. An three have done
substitute, teaching in Min City
schools.
In a detailed statement FEPC
executive director traced the edu-
cation, certafication experience and
reports Of school supervisors on the
work and competence Of the three
teachers. 81
He cited records he had secured
from school administration files
which Indicated white teachers or
applicants for teachers jobs OF
less education training and exper-
lence had been given full4time con-
tracts.

a discrimination has existed since

for Minneapolis schools, ''that
builds a double standard" in the
Rlz-ing Of teachers. -. Ei"
Erwin told the commission his
hong Investigation OF the charges

just and correct. .-r

ance has been violated by frequent
references 10 race In school per-
sonnel records.

Mrs. McWatt says that this
clause is important since often
during concfliation the property

No exceptions were written into
the proposed ordinance because
ITO exempt any property for free
