Baltimore, Md., Nov. 30—The
Negro teachers :n Anne Adundel

aairro salaries as white teach ns
doing the same work, it was
ruled here Novemlber 22 by Judge
W. Calvin Chestnut of the Unitad
States district court. Judge Ches
nut signed an injunction restrain
ing the Anne Arundel county ,
board of education from paying f
lower salaries to colored teachers
than to whites.
The decision represented a vic

pal of a five-teacher school at
Uamp Parole, Mjd., plaintiff in
tha case, who sought to have the
counity board of education res
trained from paying him a salary
less than white principals of the
same experience and doing the
same work, solely on the ground
of color. Mills’ salary is $1,050
pw year, while white principals
doing similar work receive $1,800
per year.
The decision means that Negro
teachers in Anne Arundel count}*
will receive approximately $45,
000 more in their pay envelopes
than they here heretofore. The
total amount *f the differential
wage still existing in Maryland
counties is more than $400,000. ,
Mills’ defense which was waged
by Thurgood Marshall, William
H. Hastie, Leon Ransom, and W.
A. C. Hughes, Jr., attorneys for
Advanc, I rent of Colored People,
th'j National Association for the
represented a victory for the j
Maryland Teachers Association, |
which ha« backed the fight to- j
gether with the NAACP and
other organizations.
In issuing the Injunction Judge
Chesnut said:
“As a* result of consideration of
this case I have reached the con
clusion that the plaintiff is en
titled to an injunction against
the County Board of Education
from discrimination in the fixing
of his salary to the extent that
it is bared solely on race or
color.”
At the same time the court
dismissed the cross complaints
against the State Board of Edu
cation and others and separately
against the County Gonvmi«sion- j
ers of Anne Arundel County.
In his d eision Judge Chesnut,
made it clear that he was in no j
way passing upon the right of
the county board of education to
sot a salary scale for individual
teachers, but merely passing upon
the right of an education board:
to discriminate solely on the
basis of race, in the payment of
such salaries. The decision con
tinued in pailt:
‘‘The Court is not Csterminin;;
what particular amounts of salar
ies irrust be paid in Anne Arundel
County either to -white or colored
toacher-. individually, nor is the
board in any way to be prohibited
by the injunction in this case
from exercising its judgment as
to the respective amounts to bo
raid to individual teachers based
on their individual qualifications,
capacities and abilities. It is on
ly enjoined from discrimination

in salaries on account or race or
color.”
The NAAGP ha* already won
more than $100,000 in salary in-!
creases for Negro in nine Mary
land counties, all of whose edu
cation boards equalized Negro
and white teacher salary scales '
in settlements obtained without
court action.
A|t leash one member of the
school board, George T. Cromwell
expressed himself as being eppos-;
ed to the salary discrimination.
Cromwell was quoted bp a Bal- j
timorc paper as saying:
•‘Salary differences ought to
bo eliminated and will inevitably
bo eliminat'd. The practice of
flaying white teachers more than
colored persons for doing the j
same type of work is absurd. It
shows a lack of progress. I 'he- |
lieve that each teacher should i
be paid whatever his services are
worth regardless of his color.
Meanwhile, I am doing all in my
power to abolish these pay differ
ences with a minimum if strain
on the county's finances.”
Whether the Anne Arundel
County board of education would
appeal the court’s dici«ion, was
not disclosed. George Fox coun
ty superintendent, who wa8 de- 1
fendant in the case, was quoted
as saying, after he learned of the
decision:
“The question of expense for
further litigation will bu influen
tial in the 'board’s decision.”
In a telegram sent to the Vir
ginia State Teachers Association
Thursday, Novemlber 23, Walter
White, executive secretary of
the NAACP said: “What has been
done in Maryland is an example '
of what can be done in every
southern and border state where
these inequalities exist.”
The decision of Judge Chesnuo !
was hailed by the NAACP as a
victory tof far-reaching signifi
cance in that it provides a stan
dard of measurement for public
employment and directs that
salary scale may not be based
upon race and color. Judge Ches
nut's opinion is .expected to affect
not only the State of Maryland,
but to have an important bearing
upon the whole system of racial
salary differentials now in force
throughout the southern states
having separate schools.
At the same time, the NAACP
officers warn thait there is grave
danger that the association will
have to curtail its activities for
equalization b cause of lack of
funds.
“The Public imust know,” said
Walter White, NAACP secretary
“that these legal campaigns are
costly. The association has been
assisted 'by tfye state teachers’
as; ociations in the states where
legal action- is being undertaken,
but in order to secure the widest
benefit of tfyfue decisions, the as
sociation must have the financial
and moral support of the public
at large.
“\\ hat is being done in Mary
land can be done in other states
if we secure the money to carry
on.”

A Prominent Business
Woman Praises Mme.C J.
Walker’s Preparations
j "I use Mme. C. J. Walker’a
preparations exclusively be
cause I get results from them
that I am unable to get from any
other preparation,” stated a well
known business woman the
other day.
The secret of the remarkable
success of Mme. C. J. Walker’s
preparations is in the fact that
they were blended by the late
Madam C. J. Walker to reach
certain definite conditions of the
hair, skin and scalp, and today,
after over thirty-five years on
the market, they are growing
increasingly popular, and not
withstanding the fact that the
Company has always refused to
reduce the price on these goods,
they are still in demand every
where.
Mme. C. J. Walker’s Glossine,
although more than thirty-five
years on the market, is still the
leader in its field. The reason
for this is because it not only
serves as a scalp oil, but it gives <
the hair that silky sheen and
natural gloss that is the delight
of every woman.
Mme. C. J. Walker’s Brown
Face Powder is not just another
Face Powder, but is the result of
years of experimenting to pro
duce the perfect blend to impart
a velvetlike softness and at the
same time cooling and refresh
ing. Just the thing for these hot
days.
The Mme. C. J. Walker’s won
derful preparations are sold by
Walker Beauticians and Drug
Stores everywhere, ®r you can

Mfg. Company, direct. Address:

apolis, Indiana.
