Items Of Interest From
Seattle Urban League
Achievement Program-A Race
Relation Project

HeaaAions AfroJect
An educational program planned
to acquaint Seattle citizens with the
outstanding Negro achievements,
has been arranged for a weekly
broadcast over Station K0L. The
hour will be every Sunday afternoon
4:45 to 500 y. M, beginning Octo-
Der %. The fifteen minute program
will center around a three-minute
speaker who will relate facts con-
corning the Negroes contribution,
and a twelve minute musical made
up of some of the best talent avail
able. 1t affords a splendid oppor-
tunity for the education of the pub
lie in interesting and informative
material about Negroes.
Employment Problems
A young man interested to work
as laundry driver came into the
office for help. The manager of
one of the companies contracted by
him had seemed favorable, but saw
the difficulty of getting the Union
to accept any new man when many
union men were already out of work.
Through the assistance of the Ur-
ban League this difficulty was over
come. However. after several days
more of conferences, the manager
reasoned that as the Negro popula-
ton was small, Negroes had probab-
ly suffered proportionately with 9th
ers from wage and salary cuts, and
that with reduced incomes they
would send out less laundry than
before. With the union difficulty
out of the way the young man is
working harder to prove that enough
customers can be had to build up
steady route which will mean an
opening for him.
Much attention has been given to
the Board of Public Works. Few
public works contracts have been let
during the recent periods. Some
contractors were dealt with directly
One gave employment to Negro
over period until he was dismissed
in the general layoff. Results will
probably be had from another now
being contacted. At least one small
employment relief job is about to be
begun by the city. The contract was
let to the employer with the under
standing that he would hire men
from the list registered with the City
Registration Bureau. The employ.
er will need at least Is men, or if
double shifts of 6 hours each are
employed, 80 men. These men must
come from the certified list of class
A men containing 200 names. There
are Negroes on the list and it is
promised that at least two of them
will be employed.
In our efforts to place workers
in the fraternity houses this fall il
was revealed that at least three
houses will not reopen. The Others
that have opened have cut down their
help to the minimum and are not
hiring anyone else. The few left arc
old employees.
Boy Scouts
Troop No. 23 has started off with
a lot of enthusiasm for their fall &C
tivities. While the V. F. W. com
mittee is the active sponsor, this is
mentioned because our office
brought the Scouts and the Veterans
together. Our first interest has beer
followed up and help and encour

support and close cooperation is hat
from the scout headquarters.

YESTERDAY by the National Prohibition
Board of Strategy, which refused to in
dorse any presidential candidate and
merely cited the record Of each, laying
the principal stress on fights within the
congressional districts to maintain suf-
hcient strength at the Capitol to defeat
repeal or modification Of the eighteenth
amendment.
While the Methodist board was d.
recting this message to its friends, the
Anti-Saloon League of America dis
patched to its State superintendents
copies of yesterdays pronouncement by
the national dry board OF strategy. With
respect to the quotations given to snow
the records of the two major presiden-
tiaI candidates on prohibition the Anti
Saloon League told Its state groups IN
effect. these are the facts" and left its
individual supporters to formulate their
own stand in the election.
That dry sword is still hanging over
the heads of the presidential candidates
was indicated by DR.. F. Scott Mcbride,
national Superintendent of the Anti-Sa-
loon League, who disclosed that Fri
day's decision by the board of strategy
did not shut the door to concerted ac-
tion later. In the first week OF Septem-
ber he said, the Executive Committee
of the league will meet to consider all
pertinent matters including the presi-
Dental campaign. Declarations and &C
tions by the candidates in the interval
NAV determine new action by the dry
groups. President Hoover's address ac-
cepting the Republican denomination
will be particularly watched in this con-
nection.
