COMMUNIST PAPER SCORES
MOTIONS BID FOR LOWER
WAGES FOR NEGROES

BIRMINGHAM. Ala. ~ (CNA)-
Following reports in the Alabama
lynch press that DR. Robert R Mot
on, head Of Tuskegee Institute, had
requested General Hugh s. Johnson
to set different wage standards for
white and Negro workers, the "South
ern Worker" Communist newspaper
published in the South, sent the fol
lowing open letter to DR. Motion:
The Southern Worker
Box 572, Birmingham, Ala.
DR.. Robert r. Motion,
Principal, Tuskegee Institute,
Tuskegee, Alabama.
The Montgomery Advertiser Of
July % carries on its front page a
story to the effect that Montgomery
businessmen are Encouraged" over
the report that DR. r R Motion re-
questd Hugh S. Johnson, national
administratI Of the N / R A. adj
mi~nistration that it would be to the
disadvantage of Negro labor to have
a S14.O0 minimum wage.
The Southern Worker, which is the
paper Of the white and Negro work
ers and toiling farmers of the South,
is addressing this letter to you to
discover whether or not the state
ments attributed to you are correct,
and, if so, in what way you justify
such action.
CODES ALREADY DISCRIMINATE
The actual fact is that the indus
trial codes being adopted by the N.
r. A. do dif~ferentiate in practice be-
tween white and Negro labor by ex-
cepting the lowest-grade jobs from
the minimum wage provisions. These
lowest grade jobs are those which are
forced upon the Negro workers by the
employers and by the discriminatory
practices of the A. F. of L. unions.
The textile code specifically ex-
empts outside workers and cleaners
from the minimum wage provisions.
Practically all Negroes in the South
ern Textile industry come under
these classifications, as it is a well
established practice in the South to
employ nc Negroes on skilled or
semi-skilled jobs.
LOWER PAY FOR SOUTHERN
LABOR
The lumber industry is another case
in point. The difference between the
minimum for Southern labor and the
minimum for Northern labor is great
er in the proposed lumber code SO
far considered. Under the code, labor
in Southern saw and planning mills
will work at 22h cents an hour, while
the same labor in the Northern mills
will bring 40 cents an hour. This is a
much greater difference than exists
in the textile code. The explanation
is that labor in the lumber industry
OF the South is predominantly Negro,
whereas in the North and West it is
predominantly white.

CHICAGO, November 21.-The Chi
cago Tribune said today that unless
some unforeseen developments arise to
prevent it. the University of Chicago

A committee, the newspaper said. has

man. president Of the University of
Minnesota, were named as the members
of the COMMITTEES, which has not yet

The Tribune said that President Rob-
ert Maynard Hutchins of the UDiver-
sity of Chicago has admitted that the
plan was being studied, but said the
facts concerning it would not be made
public until after the FIRST of the year.
President walter Dill Scott Of North

CHAIRMAN DEFENDS
HOME LOAN WORK
Fahey Says Work of Clearing
Cases Is Cause of Slow
Settlements.

John H. Fahey, chairman of the
Home Loan Bank Board, yesterday de-
Tended the speed with which his or
ganization is meeting demands of APP
plicants for aid in keeping their homes
through loans advanced by the Home
Owners Loan Corporation.
He was asked to explain why so few
mortgage loans comparatively had been
made out of the 500, 900 or more ap-
plications received and why only about
$5,000,000 has been advanced to home
owners from the 5000, 100000 authorized
by Congress
without citing figures, Mr.. Fahey said
that private institutions, insurance
houses and building and loan associa-
tons, fully equipped with capital and
trained personnel, could not do the
volume of business in year that the
Home Owners Loan Coronation has
been called upon to do. Furthermore
he said, the corporation still is an in
complete organization, even now seek
ing to employ competent appraisers and
title examiners throughout the country
50 that the work Of granting relief loans
may be fastened.
Says Purposes Crossed.
A misunderstanding of the purposes
OF the corporation, he added, has also
tended to slow up its operation. -
Every APPLICANTS story must be
heard" he said. They can not be
thrust aside with wave of the hand"
Mr.. F'ahey explained that the mis-
understanding retarding the work most
lie <rr-f - - ~,
to improve their mortgage contracts by
obtaining longtime financing and a
more favorable rate of interest. These
people, he said, are not entitled to re-
lief; because they are not about to lose
their homes and no real emergency ac-
tually exists
The chairman also said that reports
are being made now by State managers
on needed expansion In the several
branch offices scattered over the coun-
try. The additions, he said, are chiefly
attorneys with experience in examining
titles and expert property appraisers.
As for other changes In personnel, in
Guiding the headquarters Offices here,
Mr.. Fahey said the board has not vet
decided on any changes for the present.
Check IA States.
The work of checking home mort
cages in closed or restricted banks, he
announced, has now been completed in
IA States, four more having been COM
pleted during the past week. These are
Texas, Kentucky, Tennessee and West
Virginia. After the checking process is
completed, he said, the boards plan to
take over the mortgages to free the as
sets of the banks will be worked out.
In Ohio this is already being done.
the banks In the District Of
Columbia viii also receive the attention
Of the boards representatives.

THE boys clubs are located In the

90 per cent of all the juvenile court

Mr.. Burger quoted Right Rev. Will
liam Lawrence, Bishop OF Massachu-
sets, as having said: "The club Is con-
structive. It is a means of building
up the boys intelligence and character.
IN their recreation they are gaining
knowledge of avocations and experience
in vacations, and in the mingling of
the boys under the right leadership
they are becoming American citizens.
The fact that this mingling Is voluntary,
not compulsory as in school, and that
the boys pay part Of the expense adds
to the effectiveness OF the club, as
compared with the public school,"
The average boy, Mr.. Burger insisted.

boy who cannot pay is shut out. On
the contrary, no boy is too poor to be-
long. If there Is no other way, some
kind of light and agreeable work Is
found for him In the building What

he would spend on the street II he
were running wild"
Mr.. Burger Is the author Of q scien-
tific sociological study OF the boy situa-
ton in Washington. "On the strength
OF my findings" he explained, 81 know
that these two club buildings are badly
needed. I do not believe that Wash

with the words: 1.-THE proof Of the pud-
