DEEDS EXECUTED

New schools for Milford and Re
hOboth Beach are principal items in
a milliOn-dOllar State school build
ing program which is being planned
for presentation to the State Legis-
lature at its next session.
Sketching the projected building
program, Or. H. V. Holloway, State
Superintendent of Schools, last Fri
day listed also as important items a
number Of additions to present
schools.
The additions sought are for the
William Penn School at New Castle,
the Middletown School and the Do
yer school. These are all up-to-date
schools of modern construction but
are not large enough to meet the
present problem in these districts.
DR.. Holloway said the projects
represent the points in Delaware at
which the need for additional build
ing facilities Is most pressing.
About S1,00O,O 900 should cover the
program, DR.. Holloway said. In
view of the fact that the board
must wait until the next session Of
the Legislature before making It's
concrete plans, 4 is not possible to
figure now on assistance from Fed
eral funds. DR.. Holloway pointed
out.
The most urgent need, he said, is
for a building at Rehoboth Beach
to include a high school. The pres
ent school there Is felt to be made
Quate in almost all respects. Resi-

tsrmined fight inside the A. F. L.
to force the leaders to take de-
eisive action to clean up the situa-
ton. Many OF the rank and file
members have fought against the
A. ?. L. leaders and their itm-crev
and discriminatory policy and win
continue to do so. This shows the
tremendous possibility Of convinc-
ing the white members to fight for
the rights Of Negro workers.
In spite of the situation in the
A. =. L. trade unions Negro work
ers are joining because they feel
that with the help Of militant rank
and file white workers as strong al
lies they will be able TO break down
Systematically every barrier and
create real basic unity.
However, the only real basis for
unity and mass influx of Negro
workers into the A. F. of L. can
only be the result of a serious and
determined struggle against every
Jim Grow barrier. every diserimins-
tory practice against Negro work
ers; the taking of all Negro work
ers into the various National and
International Uniens on the basis OF
absolute equality with the white
members and the waging of a ex-
tensive and intensive campaign for
the rights of Negro workers.
Coupled with this must be the
creation of real trade union demoe-
raey, the lowering of inistion fees,
so as to guarantee the possibility
for Negro workers to Join with full
membership privileges and Joint
struggle against the bosses for het-
ter conditions. Through the carry
ing out of the above simple but very
important steps can be realized the
growth of mass unions among the
Negro masses.
