[D-NY-19] NY D R000053 5 Provides that an organization which discriminates on the basis of race or color shall not be exempt from tax under any provision of the Internal Revenue Code and that no deduction shall be allowed under any provision of such Code for any contribution to (or for the use of) such an organization.
