State Superintendent
Declares DCT
Meets Need of
Students
Thomas D. Bailey states, “It
seems to me the only genuine
evaluation of any school program
are the answers to the questions:
‘How well does it meet the needs
of the pupils?†and ‘How well
does it prepare our youth for
Life.
“For, after all, meeting the
individual needs of the youth of
our State is the primary purpose
of our educational system.
“All your actions, all our pro programs,
grams, programs, should be designed to
meet these needs and to better
prepare our youth for those things
which we believe they will be re required
quired required to know after they leave
school. If we fail to meet these
needs, we fail as educators.
“The Diversified Cooperative

instrumental in preparing youth
for life.

needs of boys and girls and of offering

Miami Life for May 26 publishes the following article
for which we think the editor deserves a big hand and no
further comment by us is necessary.
QUIT CONDEMNING NEGROES AS RACE
All Negroes should not be condemned because one
has attacked a White woman —any more than all males
should be condemned because a glandularly diseased per pervert
vert pervert ravishes a 4-year-old child.
There’s too much irresponsible talk about these
things. ti . .
The record proves that Negroes don t make a rule of
attacking White, women. Tt shows that in this field there
* are many more White males than colored guilty of doing
the attacking.
In child molestation cases, Whites dominate.
But do we look askance at all White males?
Negroes deplore such actions, a good deal more than
any one else. They know that as a minority people they
are most hurt by them.
In all fairness and justice, we should immediately
stop all who heedlessly condemn the race because some
members of it get out of line.

The ‘BITTER-ENDER’
South Carolina is faced with having her jimcrow
school system challenged in federal court next week, and
should the court rule in favor of petitioners, with having
to unify its school system, or face contempt of court.
The court action is brought by one group of citizens
whose taxes help operate both of the systems, and who
contend that the section allocated to them is grossly in inferior,
ferior, inferior, and that they are entitled to use of facilities set
aside for the other section, that is, to use all these facili facilities
ties facilities jointly.
The courts have not yet decided, but the State of
South Carolina has conceded defeat. And in defeat, it has
taken the position of starting the Civil War all over again
rather than follow the sensible course, which in the end
it may have to follow should its hunch be correct.
South Carolina talks about closing down its public
schools, of selling them and of doing a lot of other things
it cannot do unless the constitution is amended. And what
faces those who now attempt legislative changes to assail
the Negro is a block of 100,000 or more Negro votes, too
powerful to tamper with.
A special committee of preparedness on the issue has
been set up —at public expense —to devise “getting
around schemes†—in the name of all the citizens. There is
absolutely no effort being made to adjust the state to what
it political leadership, by word and action, to what it
shall have to adjust itself to.
We are not speaking from the angle of race; rather
from that of a lay citizen concerned with public expendi expenditures

South Carolina has already made the mistake of
waiting until the horse was gone before it looked at the
stable door. Now, it is trying desperately to lock the doors
while somebody else rides the horse.
There is talk encouraged by Governor Byrnes’ ra radio
dio radio announcement that a handful of Negroes will be
called into work with the state’s beaten before —it
starts plan to beat the courts. If such is undertaken it will
make matters worse. The only Negroes who can carry any
weight in this and other civic matters are those who are
identified with the state civic program. We understand
that the public White officials are so clothed in hatred as
not to want to talk with any of these.
Categorically, South Carolina takes the position of

it is a vehicle to convey you
into service, a utility to be used.
The Commencement speaker,
Dr. Buell G. Gallagher told the
1951 graduating class Monday,
May 28 that they must learn the
lesson of hope from history and
that ethical integrity must be
nurtured and maintained and
there must be no surrender to
expediency.
Dr. Gallagher likened what’s
happeing in our world today to
what happened in Sparta and
Athens long ago. Said he, “We
must learn from Athens and
Sparta before all of Greece is
lost.â€
He pointed out that Sparta had
the original iron curtain, that she
put all of her hopes in military
power and became a respected
adversary with few friends.
The consultant from the U. S.
office spoke of an “ethical dry
rot†and an “ascending of
greed†which characterized
Athenian democracy suggesting
that our form of democracy can cannot

The move was designed to prevent threatened Negro occupancy of part of the White apartment project bounded by NW 7th and 12th aves. and NW 67th and 71st sts. The city commission voted 3-2 against buying the development for White public housing. Commissioners Louie Bandel, Cecil Kirby and Mayor William Wolfarth opposed the issue. Favorable votes were cast by Commissioners Perrine Palmer and William Charles. Frederich called public housing “the only solution to a situation that threatens the whole area.*' Frederich must have feared losing a lot of White grocery customers when he said: “If one-third of that area goes colored, it will all go. There would be a great movement out of that area ... up to 7th ave.” pandel contended that public housing would not be a solution because federal laws ban segregation. “On the other hand, the Miami Housing Authority does enforce segregation,” Palmer replied. Palmer pointed out that the mayor appoints members of the housing authority. The board has maintained segregation through screening of applicants for public housing units. Frederich expressed his wish that the Miami Housing Authority keep that same policy in the future as it has in the past.

SATURDAY, JUNE 9, 1951 DCT Program Prepares Youth For Life First DCT Students Graduate From BTW The Diversified Cooperative' Training program at BTW is very proud of the first group of seniors to finish under the DCT program. This group started trainling little more than a year ago and the entire group has brought credit to themselves and to the school. They have performed remarkably well both in their related school work, and also in the training agencies to which they were assigned. Employers have been loud in their praise of these Cooperative students and in almost every instance these individuals will become elegible for full time employment in these businesses they were trained in or with money they have earned while training, they will attend some college in order to gain advanced training in the field they chose and received some training in, under the DCT program at BTW. Business men of this community are realizing too that such a program has advantages for their individual businesses. They know that under this plan they must agree to train one of these oungstert just as they would ike to have the youngster trained. ”n the final analysis they know hat they will get a much better mployee this way, since the f ’HMIv. • * , ’ ' w 2. wmm&.

Students are given vocational guidance and are then placed in a business where training can be obtained.. The photo at top shows Freddie Quinn, prospective DCT trainee being introduced to Mr. Sam Klinger, by Mr. Eddie B. Bunyan Jr. BTW DCT Coordinator. Lower photo shows Freddie in training as a salesman in the Flagler St. “Peter Kents Men’s Store.” He attends school from 8:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. and deceives training on the job for five hours each day. Freddie, like all trainees, are paid a reasonable amount of wages. school also teaches the student basic subjects that make the student more efficient in the training agency. State Superintendent Declares DCT Meets Need of Students Thomas D. Bailey states, “It seems to me the only genuine evaluation of any school program are the answers to the questions: ‘How well does it meet the needs of the pupils?” and ‘How well does it prepare our youth for Life. “For, after all, meeting the individual needs of the youth of our State is the primary purpose of our educational system. “All your actions, all our programs, should be designed to meet these needs and to better prepare our youth for those things which we believe they will be required to know after they leave school. If we fail to meet these needs, we fail as educators. “The Diversified Cooperative Training Program has been very instrumental in preparing youth for life. “The DCT program, .well designed to meet the individual needs of boys and girls and offering the proper balance between formalized education and vocational training, meets the criteria for a practical school proram. “It approaches the problem of building aspirations and understandings and baseline of practicality. It has been developed with the needs of children uppermost in the thinking and planning of its sponsors with emphasis on teaching good work habits through actual experience. “All Florida should be proud that the DCT program is meeting some of the fundamental needs of Florida youth.” Local Office Mgr. Os Florida State Employment Service Evaluates DCT Mr. Melvin Jackson is thoroughly convinced that DCT has many advantages. The following is his statement. 1. For the young man and woman desiring to begin early to prepare for his life’s work. Diversified Cooperative Training while in high school has been one of the answers. Through the cooperative efforts of employers, parents, and school officials, the student is given the opportunity to receive both theoretical and practical training under actual employment conditions, the ideal training situation. The student receives those experiences of getting a job, working with others, understanding his responsibilities as a worker and a citizen, understanding his employer’s problems, participation in club, social and civic activities, and generally receiving training and guidance in the many activities and responsibilities of becoming a useful, employed citizen of his community. In the past months I have had the opportunity to observe Miami DCT students in action-on the job, in classroom, and in their club activities. In attending these activities I have been impressed by the enthusiasm of the entire group, I have heard the fine comments of employers and civic officials regarding the high quality work and citizenship demonstrated by these students. DRIVE CAREFULLY Imßß| i B jp¦ Jlf fPBBHp -/fIMWB l m I ’'Mr'tti *Jr . Good employees are always well groomed. The DCT program encourages its students to practice good grooming daily.

QUIT CONDEMNING NEGROES AS RACE All Negroes should not be condemned because one has attacked a White woman —any more than all males should be condemned because a glandularly diseased pervert ravishes a 4-year-old child. There’s too much irresponsible talk about these things. ti . . The record proves that Negroes don t make a rule of attacking White, women. Tt shows that in this field there * are many more White males than colored guilty of doing the attacking. In child molestation cases, Whites dominate. But do we look askance at all White males? Negroes deplore such actions, a good deal more than any one else. They know that as a minority people they are most hurt by them. In all fairness and justice, we should immediately stop all who heedlessly condemn the race because some members of it get out of line. COMMENCEMENT Our High Schools closed this week. Sunday was baccalaureate day. Closing exercises for Washington were held at the Dade County Auditorium on Thursday evening. Closing exercises for Carver high were held on Thursday afternoon at the Ace Theatre while Dorsey high school held theirs Wednesday evening at Liberty City Elementary Cafetorium.

Homestead, received a $l5O scholarship, Norma Stirrup, 9242 Charles Ave., Coconut Grove received the SIOO scholarship -and Catherine Daniels, 4020 Woodrige Road, received a SSO scholarship. School ends this week as far as students are concerned, but teachers will work post-planning through the 22nd. % The ‘BITTER-ENDER’ South Carolina is faced with having her jimcrow school system challenged in federal court next week, and should the court rule in favor of petitioners, with having to unify its school system, or face contempt of court. The court action is brought by one group of citizens whose taxes help operate both of the systems, and who contend that the section allocated to them is grossly inferior, and that they are entitled to use of facilities set aside for the other section, that is, to use all these facilities jointly. The courts have not yet decided, but the State of South Carolina has conceded defeat. And in defeat, it has taken the position of starting the Civil War all over again rather than follow the sensible course, which in the end it may have to follow should its hunch be correct. South Carolina talks about closing down its public schools, of selling them and of doing a lot of other things it cannot do unless the constitution is amended. And what faces those who now attempt legislative changes to assail the Negro is a block of 100,000 or more Negro votes, too powerful to tamper with. A special committee of preparedness on the issue has been set up —at public expense —to devise “getting around schemes” —in the name of all the citizens. There is absolutely no effort being made to adjust the state to what it political leadership, by word and action, to what it shall have to adjust itself to. We are not speaking from the angle of race; rather from that of a lay citizen concerned with public expenditures and the money which has to be raised to meet these JUST BROWSIN’ By Paul R. Henry Robert Tillman, 445 NW 19th st. who was charged with the killing of Andrew Vickers last January was tried and acquitted in Criminal Court on Wednesday. Tillman said Vickers struck him with a piece of board before he stabbed him. expenditures. South Carolina has already made the mistake of waiting until the horse was gone before it looked at the stable door. Now, it is trying desperately to lock the doors while somebody else rides the horse. There is talk encouraged by Governor Byrnes’ radio announcement that a handful of Negroes will be called into work with the state’s beaten before —it starts plan to beat the courts. If such is undertaken it will make matters worse. The only Negroes who can carry any weight in this and other civic matters are those who are identified with the state civic program. We understand that the public White officials are so clothed in hatred as not to want to talk with any of these. Categorically, South Carolina takes the position of the “Bitter—Ender” Dr. Ralph J.

There is talk of peace for the Korean war, but so far, just talk! Koreans are still killing Americans by the hundreds and Americans killing Koreans by the thousands. Meanwhile thousands of poor innocent people have been run out of their home and made to suffer. It is war; but where is the sense of it? Just think what good could be done for poor people in this country and other countries too, with the millions of dollars being spent to kill people.

Famcee Graduates 196; 4 Get Masters TALLAHASSEE Commencement 1951 at Florida A and M. College carried with it unusual pomp and ceremony. 196 graduates including tour who received the masters degree and two were given commissions in the U. S. Army were honored many times during the week. Speaking from the subject “The Call of Destiny”, Bishop Frank Madison Reid of the AME Church in delivering the Baccalaureate sermon Sunday, May 27, told the members of the class that they were stepping into a world of action, and he admonished them to keep their appointment with destiny for it is granted by the favor of God. “You are moving into a world of unusual darkness and you must accept the challenge as fearless adventurers,” the bishop declared. The class was told that education is not a luxury to be enjoyed it is a vehicle to convey you into service, a utility to be used. The Commencement speaker, Dr. Buell G. Gallagher told the 1951 graduating class Monday, May 28 that they must learn the lesson of hope from history and that ethical integrity must be nurtured and maintained and there must be no surrender to expediency. Dr. Gallagher likened what’s happeing in our world today to what happened in Sparta and Athens long ago. Said he, “We must learn from Athens and Sparta before all of Greece is lost.” He pointed out that Sparta had the original iron curtain, that she put all of her hopes in military power and became a respected adversary with few friends. The consultant from the U. S. office spoke of an “ethical dry rot” and an “ascending of greed” which characterized Athenian democracy suggesting that our form of democracy cannot maintain its integrity without the right morality. “Once again,” he said, “Sparta *inds itself reflected in Russiar imperialism and the Russian bear does not listen to sweet reason.” SUMMER SCHOOL OPENS JUNE 15 TALLAHASSEE The Summer school session at Florida A and M College will open June 15 and run for a nine week period ending August 15. A few courses, mostly graduate, will also be offered in two terms which will run concurrently with the nine week session.

GORE SPEAKS TO FOUR HIGH SCHOOLS Dr. George W. Gore, Jr. will deliver commencement addresses at Douglass High School, Thomasville, Ga., May 31; Euclid High School, Deland, June 6; Booker Washington High, Pensacola, June 4 and at Middleton High, Tampa, June 14. Nuns Refuse To Fire Negro Nurses; White Nurses Resign CHARLESTON, W. Va. Special Six Catholic nuns were flown here from other hospitals to replace the staff nurses of St. Frances hospital who resigned in protest over the appointment of Negro nurses. The nurses decided to sever their connection with the hospital following a conference with Sister Helen Clare, hospital supintendent, who refused to accede to their demand that three Negro nurses hired by the hospital be dismissed. Also attending the conference were Mother Perpetua, superior of the Sisterhood in Wheeling, and Paul Cameletti, attorney for the order. The action of the Sisters was hailed by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, through the organization’s board of directors. In a telegram, signed by Walter White, the NAACP commended the hospital’s refusal “to bow to the un-Christian attitude” of the 23 White nurses, and stated: “In a period of world tension . . we can no longer afford the expensive luxury of racial or religious bigotry. Your refusal to surrender to such intolerance will do much towards negating the harm . . . done in providing enemies of democracy with material to discredit America in all parts of the world.” ADVERTISE LOTS FOR SALE Carver Ranches West Carver Ranches (2 Miles West of Hallandale) SIO.OO DOWN SB.OO PER MONTH HIGH AND DRY LAND BROWARD COUNTY PUBLIC SCHOOL large lots ELECTRIC SERVICE ESTABLISHED BUSINESS DISTRICT 4#Q FAMILIES LIVING IN CHURCHES C.

THE MIAMI TIMES SATURDAY, JUNE 9, 1951 Fla. NAACP Branches To Meet In Winter Park Mrs. Ruby Hurely, NAACP co-ordinator for the Southeastern States, will hold an important conference with representatives of Florida branches at the Recreation Center in Winter Park, Sunday, June 10 at 2:00 p.m. Plans will be made to accelerate the 1951 membership drive. At 3:30 p.m. Mrs. Hurley will speak at a public mass meeting in the same building. It is expected that a large audience from Winter Park, Orlando, Eatonville, Altamonte Springs, Oviedo, Sanford, and other neighboring communities will be present to hear this veteran NAACP worker. Florida branches are rallying for 25,000 NAACP members this year. This call for a greatly increased membership was issued by the State Conference a few weeks ago, immediately following the U. S. Supreme! Court’s reversal of the death sentences of Walter Irvin and Samuel Shepherd, two of the Groveland Boys. In letters mailed recently to NAACP branches, churches, fraternities, clubs, and other organizations throughout the state, an appeal was made for 25,000 Florida Negroes to join the NAACP this year as a token of appreciation for what the Association has done to save these poor Florida boys from the electric chair. The State Conference has mailed out special forms to be used in making appeals for 25,000 votes of appreciation to the NAACP for saving the Groveland Boys. All, organizations in the state both civic and religious —are being urged to support this special membership effort of the organization that has saved at least 10 Florida Negroes from the electric chair during the past 11 years. The Florida Conference also is sending out special instructions on how to get local units of the NAACP organized in communities where they do not now exist It is pointed out in these instructions that every community in Florida can afford a unit of the NAACP, since it takes only 17 members to get a local chapter started. Interested persons are asked to write Harry T. Moore, NAACP state • secretary, Mims, Fla.

Miss Annie L. Mann, council assistant, is exhausting all energies in an effort to make this a banner year for the camp. One of the main features of the preparation is to stimulate interest on the part of groups and individuals to sponsor camperships for girl scouts who would be deprived of the rich experience because of financial reasons. Thus far the response to the campership appeal has been favorable. However, many of the scouts who have applied for them were unable to receive because of the lack of campership not being available. A campership cost only five dollars. Have you or your organization made a contribution? If you are desirable of sponsoring a camper, please call Miss Mann at 2-4762 or come by the branch office located at 340 NW 13th st. Virginia Key Beach will be the site for the camp this year. A special bus will transport the campers to the beach. The girls will be supervised by a trained staff. Activities will include: Trail blazing, compass reading, cooking, singing, folkdancing and campers’ craft. A well planned program of activities has been designed to meet the needs of Dade County scouts. Advertise! It Pays FOR FRIENDLY SERVICE AT COMMON SENSE PRICES—VISIT . . .

Mr. White recalled that although the general had presidential authorization to break' up segregation and had been urged by the NAACP official to. do so in 1945 and again in 1949, no effective steps were taken in that direction.

Thousands of the young folk are “marching” out of high school. and other thousands, armed with their sheep skins, are treking from the colleges and universities. Congratulations to all of them! After school days, what? That has always been the head aching question that has pestered every “crop” of graduates ever since mass education came into vogue. Years ago when only the favored few could go to institutions of higher learning juicy positions were ripe and ready for the lucky guys. But the times have changed and every thing has changed with them. However don’t cry. There are more opportunities for more people than ever. But you have to get the know-how. mixed with pluck, honesty, hard work and thrift. Then!! Take this from Ralph W. Emerson: “Make thyself a necessity to the world, and it will give thee bread.” “How I Can Make My Life Most Useful to My Country.” is the title of the National Scholastic Essay contest sponsored recently by Lincoln University School of Journalism. Carole Sue Fuller, junior of Elkhorn high school, Elkhorn, W. Va., won second prize. Good! But at this distance what interests us is what Miss Fuller wrote. Look: “Just as I train for the physical game of life, so must I train for the mental crusade. My mind cannot command unless I have trained it to obey. I am not a genius. I haven't the capacity to be a great scientist or author; but I must recognize the danger as well as the disgrace of a halfused mind. I must be alert. My mental life must not slow down after school days are over, because I know that stagnant minds are the greatest obstacles to progress. So I can serve my country best with a wholesome, welltrained mind. When I think of the big things of life, I will not overlook the small ones. Further more, I will not forget that every time T come in contact with another person or everytime I meet or become affiliated with another organization, my job is to lead to a higher plane. Thus I can become a good citizen by developing a personality that will help and inspire others.” Think of that!
