May Moines 27, inghtenPage 16 Support For Child Welfare Groups Asked Co-ordination of efforts by public and private child adoption agencies to avoid overlapping and duplication of services was urged here Friday by John Dula, New York, N. Y. Dula, consultant for the Child Welfare League of America, addressed the state board of directors of the Iowa Children's Home DULA, society at luncheon meeting at Hotel Savery. He emphasized the need for the society, together with other agencies in Iowa, to extend the safeguards of standard adoption practices to all children for whom placement in adoptive homes is a sound plan. Urges Support.

Dula also urged support of public agencies in developing foster family placement profor children requiring care outside their own homes. "Without a floor of basic child welfare services under public auspices, private agencies are impeded in fulfilling their responsibility for offering specialized serv- ice to children with difficult problems of behavior or in need of adoption." said Dula. "Major Operation." Dula termed adoptions the "most specialized child welfare and foresaw the need for service." agencies to carry this program for many years to come. "Adoption is a major operation involving the amputation of child from one family tree and grafting the child onto another family tree," he said. "In agricultural Iowa, especially, the importance of such grafting operation should certainly be recognized." Agencies providing adoption services need to be supported adequately, both financially and morally, if children now placed independently are to be protected and safeguarded, said Dula.

Minister Should Help. Ministers, lawyers, doctors and others should co-operate in referring unmarried mothers for adoptive planning to authorized agencies instead of undertaking to make adoptive plans themselves, no matter how well intentioned, he added. Forty men and women from all over lows attended the sion as members of the board of the Iowa Children's Home society. Both this society and the Iowa Lutheran Welfare are members of the society, League of America, voluntary national federation of 250 United States agencies meeting high standards of child welfare. U.

A committee on intergroup relations was established at Iowa State college Friday evening, to investigate discrimination because of race, religion or creed. The meeting at which the group was formed came about as a result of an honorary ciety's inability, because of a racial restrictive clause to take a qualified Japanese-American into membership.

The meeting was not called solely to investigate this occurrence, but in an "attempt to remove: from the campus organizations in which there is discrimination," according to Lee Harris, Ames, chairman of the meeting. Barred by Frat. The incident which prompted the meeting was the barring from membership in Alpha Zeta, tional honorary agricultural fraternity, of Burton Endo, Philadelphia, native- born American citizen of Japanese descent. Those at the Friday night's meeting emphasized they were not condemning the local chapter, bat rather were trying to think of ways in which 1 they could help it and other chapters of organization fight to have the racial, restrictive clause taken out of the national constitution of the organization. Marvin Clark, chancellor of the I.S.C.

Alpha Zeta chapter, told the group many persons had criticized the chapter for its stand and suggested that it disaffiliate from the national group.

don't get out of the organization, but you stand up and fight." One of the immediate objectives of the group is to ask that the college amend its student rules so that honorary and professional societies which have racial restrictive clauses could not be 10- cated at I.S.C. The committee also rested asking college officials to remove the spaces for color, race and religion facts from the college admission blanks. The committee also decided to contact church and faculty groups to ask them to join in the UNUSUAL SHOW AT ART CENTER By George Shane. (The Register's Art Critic.) An artist's method of working usually is best seen in his draw(ings--the small, quick, on-thespot sketches which he uses for reference in later studio painting. This kind of view of an artist's work is provided in an exhibit of 46 drawings 1 by James Hunt, Des Moines Art Center painting and drawing instruc- HUNT.

tor, showing at the Art center until June 18. Here is a refreshing show. With pen or brush and ink, Hunt has caught with spirit the drama of commonplace objects and scenes. It is not portrayal in a literary or documentary sense. Rather, he has brought together with an unerring sense of validity, the basic harmony of trees, hills and sky.

There are a number of portraits in ink; several monotypes and colored drawings. In all of these there ceptive expression of character, harmony and mood-and in several, rare bits of humor. The work here is one individual's way of viewing nature, and the concepts are not developed within the confines of any prevailing formula or fashion. Hunt received his training, (with the exception of one brief period at the University of Florence after World War II), at the State University of Iowa. His drawings--frank, spontaneous statements--are forceful examples which help prove that today's university art department gives thorough training in workmanship, and at the same time encourages the artist's creativeness.

As draftsman, Hunt highly versatile, and one of the singular things about the exhibit is his extreme flexibility in technique. Hunt's sensitive line is able to whatever problem the subs ject presents. Whether it calls for bold treatment of the brush, or a fine line from a delicate pen, Hunt instinctively adapts his tools and skill to the esthetic problem involved. The result is group of drawings of notably high quality, comprising one of the outstanding shows of the Art center's exhibition program for this year. DES MOINES WEATHER DATA.
