JOBS FOR NEGROES
AT BOULDER DAM

Las Vegas New. Under the
pressure OF the Department Of III,
Interior, jobs for colored men az
Boulder dam are slowly opening
up. Secretary Harold l.. Ickes and
his assistants have assured local
colored people that opportunities
are being made for them.
In a letter to the contracting
companies here recently Secretary
Ickes stated there must be no dis
elimination against applicants for
employment because of race or
color.
>COlored Admitted
Steps are being taken by the IN
terror department to open un
Boulder City to colorei residents.
Up TO this time Negroes have not
been allowed to live in this govern
ment-owned and government
built town near the dam
At the present time there arc
accommodations for translcnts
here provided by the Federal
Transient Relief Bureau so tina,
colored workers who DO rome here
looking for work will have place
TO stay until they are employed.
The number Of qualified colored
workers who could be employed on
the dam is very low here now and
the government thus has good OK
cuse to say il is not employing
Negroes because no good colorei
workers are here.

NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 2I.-Sen-
ator Huey P. Long today fought
against disintegration Of his po-
. itical machine which in four years
placed him in control Of all Of the
states important Offices, including
the governorship and the two SEN
ate seats.
While revolt against the machine
fared in all parts of the state, the
dominant New Orleans Democratic
organization. which had worked
hand in glove with Senator Long
for three years, set about to syste-
matlcally destroy every vestige of
the alliance.
Many competent observers be
lieved that without the aid of the
city organization, Senator Longs
power would be lost. Others thought
the next election would find the
two machines working together
again.
Long Directs Defense
Senator Long himself directed the
defense while New Orleans police
arrested henchmen attempting to
place the senator's cause before the
voters by means of hand bills Seven

REGISTRATION DISCUSSED IN
CIVIC LEAGUE

The NeGro Civic League in its meet
ing this week, discussed at length, the
question of registration. A large num-
Ter was present and heard a forceful
address delivered by MIR. c. T. Butler.
The members of the League seem TO
think that there is an organized effort
that is being used that is purely me-
thod of discrimination with reference
TO our group in registering as citizens.
Negroes are expected to pay taxes,
both county and city Negroes pay
their share of taxes in cur municipality
and in our county. We spend our
money with the white man in Meridian
and Lauderdale county. AS a group
we have never proven ourselves trail
tors. How can Christian Meridian
stand by, see and know that Negroes
are absolutely being Disseminated a
gainst in the matter of registration.
Pray tell me, how many county and
city jobs do Negroes hold? Will times
get better in the final analysis? My
answere is: not until men decide within
their hearts to deal fair and mete out
justice to all groups.

A MAN IN THE RACE
Dear Editor:

Please allow me space through the
columns of the Weekly Echo to COM
ment on a letter written by Prof. C.
M. Reese, relative to Rev. R. L. Young
asriring for the Bishopric From the con
tents of Prof Reese's letter, he was
somewhat surprised, but he didn't
know Rev Young as l do have
known him from his childhood. He
always has been master of big things
1t takes my mind back to his childhood
days when he had little Ratchet, he
would not hack on little tree, but you
would find him hacking on a biz oak
Knowing him as l do, l am forced to
say that there is no better character
for the position for which he aspires,
than he. He has always been ambi-
tious and doing something for the Mas
ter and his people.
No one should have been surprised
when he threw his hat in the ring for
when he threw it, mans hat was in.

REPORT JIM-CROW POLICIES OF
SEARS ROEBUCK STORES
(To Chicago NJ A. A. c. P Branch)

Chicago ILL.,, June 18th (ANP) Foil
the report of four distinct and
separate cases of segregation and dis
elimination against colored people by
salespersons and managers of the Sears
Roebuck stores in this city, A. c.
MacNeal, president of the Chicago
Branch, NJ A. A. c. P. has entered into
correspondence with high officials of
the company to determine whether
these jim-crow tactics are part of the
business policy of this concern, and
whether it indicates that the Sears
Roebuck Company no longer desires
the business of colored buyers through
out the country, both for the mail-order
department as well as in the local stor-
es.
Mrs. Susie Myers, 5616 Michigan Ave,
Mrs Hazel hurry, $685. State ST, and
Mrs. Ouida Smith, 5045 Michigan Ave.
were all refused service at separate
times in the front part Of the shoe de-
partment at the Sears-Roebuck State
Street store. They were told to 80 to
the rear row, which is partly hidden by
display cases, to have their shoes fitted,
they report When they complained,
they were told that that section had
been prepared "for your people" and
that if they did not sit in that section
they would not be served. Mrs. Myers
complained to the manager, who told
her that she could not buy shoes ex-
cept in the back row even if she paid
500 for them"
These cases were called to the atten-
ton of Alfred x. Stern, son-in-law Of
the late Juliue Rosenwald, director
of the Rosenwald Fund, and an official
in the Sears Roebuck Company, who
replied that the matter had been in
vestigated by General Woods, president
off the Sears Roetuck Company, who
assured that it would not happen again.
Never the-less, Mrs. Oneida Cockrell,
a resident of the Rosenwald Flats at
47th and Michigan, was similarly dis
eliminated against at the Sears store,
and complained to Robt. R. Taylor, re-
sident manager of the Rosenwald build
ing, who likewise took up the matter
with Alfred K. Stern.
