formed In six Southern states and
five Northern states.
For instance, IN Ohio, besides q
state advisory committee, there are
local advisory committees in twelve
of the principal towns that have a
considerable negro population. In
Virginia committees have been
formed, in forty-six counties. Co.
operative white persons serve on
these committees or Jointly with
them, representing the councils of
defense, the chambers of commerce
and the representatives of organized
labor. These affiliations vary, of
course, with local conditions.
Competent negro men who have
had experience dealing with negro
wage-earners have been appointed
as supervisors of negro economies in
nine states to direct the work of

Step Forward For

sydney, y. $. w. - The attorney

Parliament bill entitled the Wo-
mems Legal Status Bill, which has
been greeted with approval by pro-
sressive women in Australia as il pro-
poses to remove Il number of restric-
tions from the women of the Mother
state" some of which have already
been removed from the women of
other states. If the bill is successful
it Will mean that a woman will be en-
abled:
(a) TO be elected or appointed as
a member of either of the Houses of
Parliament;
(b) To be elected as Lord Mayor
or alderman of the Municipal Council
OF Sydney; as mayor. president, alder
man. or councillor of any municipality
or shire under the laws relating TO
local government;
(c) To be appointed special mag
istrate having jurisdiction only in
children's courts, or justice of the
peace;
Id To be admitted and to prac-
tice as harrister or solicitor of the
Supreme Court of New South Wales.
or to practice as n conveyancer, any
law or usage to the contrary notwith-
standing.
The bill is a notable step forward.
but If 1t passes. the last stronghold
of prejudice will still have to be
taken, as New South Wales women

There are three facts which have
been kept in mind in the efforts to
increase the morale and efficiency
of negro labor for winning the war.
First, that the negro wage-earners
are ready to shoulder some of the
responsibility for the arduous work
on the farm and in the factory, and
when given q fair chance and sym-
pathetic guidance in making the
labor program they will respond en-
Enthusiastically; second. virtually all
employers of negro labor are white
employers, and many fellow-work-
men are white workmen. Out of
the second fact develops racial mis-
understandings, prejudice, antag-
onisms, fears and suspicious. This
Is the third fact of the situation.
ITO meet these conditions the De-
partment of Labor has held a num-
Der of state conferences with repre-
sentatives of negro wage-earners, of
white employers and, wherever pos
sible. of white workmen. At these
conference the problems of better
adjustment have been discussed and
plans of cooperative effort of white
and colored citizens for 100 per cent.
labor efficiency in war production
have been made. AS result, during
the last five months, negro workers

wide, by counties and in towns and

NEGRO HELPED

WashingtOn.-What the negro has
done on the .battlefields of France to
win the war for America has been
told in many heroic stories from the
front. What he is doing in the
shipyards and cotton fields at

spectacular, but none the less effec-

DIR. George f. Haynes, director
of negro economics, Department of

that are being made to pro-
mote better relations between the
races in the Southern states, thereby
promoting the morale of the negro:
