NEW YORK-(ANP)- The New York State Commission Against Discrimination in its annual report, submitted last week to Gov. Thomas E. Dewey and to the state legislature, stressed the following three phases of its 1951 activities:
1 The impact of the SCAD on past patterns of employment discrimination based on race, creed, color or national origin;
2 The emphasis in the Commission's educational program on the need for encouraging adults and young people to train and apply for jobs according to their interests, aptitudes and skills, regardless of the past patterns or recurring incidents of job discrimination. and:
3 The support which the law and its administration have received, not only from erstwhile opponents, but also from labor, management and the general public.
The report, presented by the Commission's chairman, Edward W. Edwards, while pointing out that substantial progress had been made in eliminating job discrimination, noted that "deeply embedded practices of job discrimination are not readily and permanently changed, requiring constant vigilance and repeated educational efforts to ensure lasting results".
