President Harry S. Truman was cited as the one person in the country who did more to combat prejudice in 1948, by the Irving Geist Foun dation awards committee, it was disclosed here last week by the Newspaper Guild of New York. The guild was announcing the 1948 winners among newspaper men who made outstanding con tributions in the fight against ra cial, religious or nationalistic prejudices. The awards committee was set up jointly by the foundation and the guild to annually select news material making an outstanding contribution to interfaith under standing or combatting prejudices. The citation on President Tru man credited him with originating the report of the Committee on Civil rights. First prize of $500 went to Ray Sprigle for his series of articles Sec’y of Labor Confers With AKA Directors in D.C, “Keep the wages of household workers high by encouraging the unionization of industrial work ers,” said Maurice J. Tobin, sec retary of labor in an interview with Mrs. Robbie Davis, well known Omaha matron, and four other directors of the Alpha Kap pa Alpha sorority held in the de partments building in Washing ton, D. C., recently. “The recent presidential elec tion has enhanced the position of the laborer in the affairs of gov ernment in our cities.” The for mer governor of Massachusetts, under whose administration a state FEPC was set up, told the group, “I wanted this law and told the legislative bodies of Mas sachusetts as much.” With this impetus, the bill had no difficulty in being passed by the Eastern lawmakers. FEP has been operat ing successfully in the Bay State for the past two years. Real knowledge, like every thing else of the highest value, is not to be obtained easily. It must be worked for—studied for— thought for—and, more than all, it must be prayed for.—Thomas Arnold. lan Cited for Rights Report on “In the Land of Jim Crow, originating in the Pittsburgh Post Dispatch and appearing in the New York Herald Tribune.

Law (Continued from Page 1) time. If opinions cannot be helped, at least overt acts can. “The proposed law does not force business to hire one person or an unfit person, it only insists that the selection or refusal of a person not be based on his race, color, religion or ancestry. “D i s c r imination abnormally lowers purchasing power of poorly paid groups and creates suffering and tension in a low standard of living. The state can not afford to carry whole classes of citizens in such conditions. It restricts productivity by basing employment on color, not ability. Races working side by side dur ing the war for the first time, found that employee resistance and customer refusals were not the result. Instead, a greater labor market seeks employment on the basis of merit.” _ ■■■■—" At Winierhliter’s —— Complete line of Wallpapers, Paints, Enamels, Varnishes, Brushes and decorating sup plies. j {INE DECORATIVE WAUPAffRS AND FAINT) Formerly Colombia Glast A Paint Co. 14th and P Streets Phone 2-7549 * »r,.« r 10c2Jc4Je Liaeola'a Favorito Potato Chip PHILCO Freezers—Radios Refrigerators FRIGID SERVICE, INC iat **o- st. *-»n I WAY'S FURNACE COMPANY All Kinds of Tin and Furnace Work GAS BURNERS AND FURNACES Home Insulation Furnace Blowers Phone 2-2744 2121-23 O Street Lincoln, Nebraska BEFORE YOU SPEND ANOTHER PENNY ON STORM WINDOWS INVESTIGATE • All Metal Ql ICAA Weather-stripped • Self Storing l\U9vU Amoring COMBINATION STORM WINDOW AND SCREEN - RUSCO WINDOW CO., , kl A II 2421 ° St*’ LIncolln’ Ncbr* Gentlemen: Please give me moTe in- • formation on Rusco. | THIS Name ...'. | I COUPON Address .1 I City.
