$50 COlored Buddies Present At
National Meeting

C. Fisher for ANP)-A resolution,

practiced against ex-service men OF
our race by white posts of the
American Legion in several south
ern states, was among the 736 bills
of legislation to be considered by
Legion convention committees as
1886, 900 World War veterans, here
for their seventeenth annual con-
clave, swung into their regular
business session last Wednesday

These resolutions were previous
ly adopted by various posts and
later approved by the eastern
states at their conventions.
New Jersey has gone on record
as one of the state departments to
request action by the National Le-
gion organization at it's convention
in st. Louis to force discriminate
ing states to repeal such laws that
deprive any veteran of rights and
privileges that all veterans should
enjoy. The resolution was pre-
sented by H. A. Brown, commander
of Kenneth Hawkins Post No. 81
of Atlantic City, and the only
member of his race to be affiliated
with the post.

day, numbering 1907, had an i'm

members of any racial group by
any state or nation" This was in

Latiner Promises
Investigation In
Waters Case

Protest against the recent dis
missal of Miss Helen Waters, Min
neapolis woman, from the police
department after a five months
probationary period, was voiced
by citizens of all classes this week.
Protest To Mayor
Following protests lodged with
Chief of Police Frank Forestal, a
committee of leading citizens rep
resenting various organizations
held a conference with Mayor
Thos. E. Latimer.
Attitude Of Blanche Jones
Attacked
Miss Waters dismissal was the
result of an adverse report filed
against her by her superior off
Ger, Lieutenant Blanche Jones.
This report stated Miss Waters had
not shown by her five months rec
ord in the women's bureau that
she was qualified for policewoman
duty. On the basis of this report,
Superintendent Forestal did not
give her permanent appointment,
despite the protest of the organi-
cations which were responsible for
her appointment.
Claim Mrs. Jones Is Biased
When Miss Waters appointment
was made by the Civil Service
Commission five months ago, it was
known that Mrs. Jones did not
favor her appointment. In fact,
it has been asserted that Mrs.
Jones did not want colored off
Ger in her bureau. Citizens who
know conditions surrounding the
Negro children and women had
urged the appointment.
Miss Waters filled the vacancy
left by Mrs. Ethel Ray Williams,
another colored officer, who had
left the service because of physi-
cal disability. Mrs. Williams went
into the department through the
interest of colored organizations
and Mayor George E. Leach.
It was apparent to spokesmen
for the protesting group that Mrs.
Jones chief objection to Miss Wat
ers was based on the fact that she
was not consulted about the APP
pointment.
Mayor Promises Fair Settlement
At the close of the conference
Tuesday evening, Mayor Latimer
told the committee he would in
vestigate the matter thoroughly
and that he would make a fair and
just decision.
