What Other Editors Say
NEGROES on RELIEF ROLLS

Some OF the daily papers are
playing up the fact that Negroes
here form IS per cent Of those on
relief rolls.
From personal investigation The
Tribune has found that this large
number OF relief rolls are caused
| by the fact that whites are given
Jobs and Negroes are given relief
when they apply at stations here.
Every attempt was made To g.,
colored persons work unoer the
old c. W. A. but in nearly every in-
stance the effort failed Even col
ored mechanics were refused work
on the strictly colOred" Banneker
Community Recreation Center ou
/ Georgia Avenue. Although this
building and grounds are being
/ erected for colored. not a single
colored brick-layer or skilled me
chanic was employed on the job.
This fact was brought to the at
tention of c. w. A. officials and
the District commissioners. Moth
ing has been done relative 10 II.
The plan here is to give jobs to
whites and make Negroes accept
| charity. The head OF the District
Repair Shops was relieved OF his
position and sent to another post
when il was brought TO the atten-
ton of the commissioners that he
told delegation Of colored per-
sons that 'Niggers were no good
as mechanics"
Hundreds OF disheartened color
ed persons have been to relief sta
lions seeking work and turned
away because every effort is made
to give all available jobs to whites.
Forester Il. Washington director
OF Negro Work in the F.. +. X. A.
! explains the situation in the fol-
lowing speech at Kansas City last
Thursday:
This is due largely to factors
which can be controlled, but which
are not In the control of the Ne
gro; for instance. in the South
many plantation owners have de-
I liberately placed the Negro on re-
lief rolls during the 'lay off" sea-
son when blowing. chopping and
| cotting picking was over. and in
the North manufacturing concerns
are beginning to force him on re-
lief rolls by instituting color bars,
either in the open or under cover
when they think public opinion is
! opposed TO the employment OF Ne
i gro labor. while white men are
out of work. Thus. the United
States Government has beome q

Moreover. organized white labor,
directly or indirectly, because of its
insistance upon and relative sue

ed the fact that the issue under
consideration is more Jobs for Ne

Ii was also pointed out that there
are no segregated public schools
for other acial groups in Detroit,
and that to establish such schools
for Negroes here would not be in
keeping with the Board of Educa-
tons avowed policy of racial i'm
Partially and fair play.
Applicants Qualified
Inspector Frank Gormon, who
opposed the segregated school at
the meeting two weeks ago, re-
stated his attitude Tuesday. Touch
ng his previous assertion that col
ored applicants were unqualified
to the positions sought. the COM
mittee submitte the names and
high scholastic averages of several
qualified Negro applicants. They
also called attention TO the fact that
not one OF the hundreds of steno-
graphic and clerical jobs in the
school system. is filled by color
.ed peson. They also argued that
the scores OF colored stenographers
and office clerks annually gradual
ed from the local public schools
must surely he qualified. or some
thing is radically wrong with the
school system which directs their
training.
During the meeting. Superinten-
dent Cody did not make definite
pledge to the committee, to give
the desired jobs. As compromise,
however, a motion was made by a
board member recommending that
Mr. Cody place additional colored
teachers and educational en-
ployees In the system. as soon as
economic conditions become more
favorable. The motion was duly
seconded and adopted by the Board
Of Education.
