The Northwest enterprise. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1931-1952, 1932-12-22

If you want TO know how much
community has developed in the
past twenty-five years pick up and
compare its newspaper files of 1907
and 1882.
Many a newspaper, certainly the
Northwest Enterprise is not inter
ested in the praise or blame of
English critics. What the home folks
think is far more serious and i'm
portant.
The Northwest enterprise. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1931-1952, 1932-12-22

Mr.. D. j. Howard arrived last week
from Mason City, Iowa, to spend the
holidays with his family.

Another enemy is the flair to be
white and to disparage everything
not white
This condition prevails at Hamp-
ton Institute where Mr.. Taylor now
resides. Hampton feels that after
seventy-fiye years of operation it
has produced no Negro capable of
becoming its principal. Dixie Hos
pital, with jim crow waiting rooms,
doctors, and nurses on Hampton's
campus is another evidence OF
Hamptons flair to decry Negro abil-
lily and achievement

Mr.. Taylor's survey for readers
Interest showed that, out of 800
persons auizzed, 262 read colored
weeklies. The ss who do not, rep
resent the proper proportion of Vir-
psginia illiterates. Thirty claimed
that they hadn't time to read-five
said they preferred the radio to
newspapers.
Mr. Taylor found rs out of 35
college students who read colored
week.-Mrs.. ''--'-
Consider the great growth in
newspaper circulation in the past
twenty-five years and it becomes
evident that the Negro weekly's
worst enemy is illiteracy.

WORK PROTECTION
POLICY IS URGED
Council Tells Engineers of
Country to Avoid Discharge
of Employees.
Engineers throughout the country are

Engineers throughout the country are
urged by the American Engineering
Council to work for adoption of sound,
practicable and equitable employment,
policies" which, although personal
sacrifices are involved, will result In
protecting American workers from the
humiliation Of being subjects OF
charity"
In q statement sent to engineer en-
ployment committees in 48 States the
administrative board OF the council,
representing 100000 professional engi-
neers. outlines methods by which,
through the sharing of Jobs, it believes
the further discharge Of employees can
be averted.
Apportionment of Work.
"In those cases where the available
work REQUIRES a lessened schedule Of
employment" the board points out,
work should be apportioned among the
employees now engaged by reducing the
number Of working hours Of as many
employees as possible. Consideration
should be given to family response
bilities.
I'm those extreme circumstances
where further reduction Of working time
can De dVOlQeu Ollly ny hl duJuotliCIlG
in compensation, then such adjustment
should be recognized as a temporary
expedient and adopted as a proper
measure to prevent the discharge of
workers.
when the available work increases,
thought should be given to employing
the capable unemployed before increas-
ing the working time allotted to those
already employed. This practice will
hasten the day of normal employment.
Cases Of Work Increase.
Employment may be increased in
those cases where the work available
justifles full-time schedules and a full
quota of men by reducing the number
Of hours per shift or the number of
hours worked per week so that larger
number may be employed.
TN the present situation fear born
Of sense of insecurity is causing large
numbers of those employed not to make
normal expenditures. Each employer
could remove large element of the
sense Of insecurity by assuring each
employe of continued employment and
Of earnings for at least a specified time.
Engineers are urged to use their influ-
ence in getting employers to do this"

COUNTY SCHOOL
SUPERVISORS
NEED SHOWN
Prince Georges Superintend.
ent Explains in Letter to
Taxpayers Group

Necessity of supervisors in
Prince Georges county public
schools was explained today to
the County Taxpayers Asso-
citation by Nicholas Orem, su-
perintendent of schools, in a
letter to Jahn NJ. Bowie, of
the associations s committee on
county expenses.
The taxpayers association, re-
Gently formed, has been endeavor.
ing to clip county expenditures to
a minimum, and had asked to
be permitted to survey the school
budget before it was accepted
by the county commissioners.
This budget was agreed upon
at the last meeting Of the county
commissioners with the school
board and two representatives
Of the association in attendance.
In his letter to Mr.. Bowie, Mr..
Orem declared that a similar dis
cussion in a Western State had
resulted in a survey made in one
county.
Half of the schools were pro-
vided with supervisors, Mr.. Orem
stated, while the balance was left
to the ideas of the teachers. At
the end Of the term, Mr.. Orem
explained, progress in the super
vised schools far exceeded the
others.
It was pointed out that the
cost per pupil for supervisors in
Prince Georges county during
1880 was 80 cents, the second
lowest per pupil cost in the entire
State,
