Rev. Shaeffer objected to the testing procedures. He said any system of examinations will be in¬ terpreted as an attempt to discrim¬ inate against Negroes. He asked that Negroes be included on coun¬ ty, city, and state education boards. , Negro and white delegates were not segregated at the meeting held at the Hinds county chancery courtiAoni. * Renting to the case of Gladys Noel IRntcs now pending in court, colored teachers said they would fight in court until they received equal pry with white teachers.
