THE BALTIMORE URBAN LEAGUE

521 McMechen Street Madison 8478
John R, Cary, President

R. Maurice Moss, Executive Secretary

The Urban League has for its mission the improvement of conditions among
the Negroes of Baltimore and the creation of a better understanding between the
white and the colored races. Its officers, who include both whites and negroes,
are occupied with the problems of life in the colored neighborhoods.

The Urban League is especially active in seeking to improve the economic
status of the Negro and to aid an increasing number of them to find their way to
better paid jobs. This is done in the belief that better pay leads to better hous-
ing, better training, better recreation, better health—to better citizenship.

OBJECT

The Maryland Association for the Colored Blind was organized October 15,
1913, for the purpose of advancing the moral, religious, social, and industrial
development of the colored adult blind and to extend to them sympathy and
brotherhood.

It was later reorganized to include the care of the deaf, dumb, blind, crippled
and feeble minded of Maryland and became the Association for the Handicapped.
Some of the most prominent white citizens of Maryland have identified them-
selves with this organization.
