Negro Congress

lub0r for Roce

veland Federation of Labor at it's
last meeting appointed a commi-
tee of sixteen to organize Negro
workers into trade unions. T h e
Federation had previously endor
sed the resolution calling for alb
olition of all jim-crow bars in A.
F. of l.. unions which was offered
by A. Phillip Randolph, president
of the Brotherhood of Sleeping
Car Porters, at the last conven-
ton of the A. F. of L.
Both the endorsement Of the
Randolph resolution and the pre-
sent move by the Cleveland Fed
Grafton to organize the Negro
workers are due to the persistent
work of the Labor Committee of
the Cleveland Council of the Nat
ional Negro Congress.
Since the formation OF the Con-
gress, members of the Labor Com
mittee and the secretary, Maude
White, herself a delegate to the
Cleveland Federation Of Labor,

ders convincing them of the nee
essity of extending the bentfits of
trade union organization to the
race.

Gun Handling Gives
 Cops Here Headaches
Parents Asked to Curb Children From Using Danger
 Ous Weapons Authorities POwerless to Act

An increasing number of acicdentS due to the careless handling of guns eliminating yesterday in serious in jury to an eight year old boy acci- dentally shot when 9 calibre rifle with which his older brother was tinkering discharged, led police au- thorities today to appeal directly to parents to curb the use of dang erous weapons by children.
 Hampered by the lack of legal re- StrictionS on the sale and use ot air rifles and guns, authorities have no other recourse than to issue time ly warning on the obvious danger of allowing youngsters to handle the weapons, according to. Superinten- dent of Police William J. Roach.
 Superintendent Roach pointed out that the accident which occurred here yesterday was only one of sev- eral reported within the past week in several cities in the state. In Hartford, he said, another boy had been critically wounded under sim liar circumstances and in Meriden recently shot from 8 powerful ai1 rifle resulted in an eye injury which may impair the vision of another youngster permanently.
 Within the past few months, he said, police have been swamped with complaints from citizens regarding the use of air rifles by Waterbury youngsters. Unless serious damage results, or the boys are proved nui- sances in their respective neighbor- hoods, authorities are powerless to take action. .
 With the organization of the po- lice school in the near future an ed- ucational campaign which is expec- ted to effectively prevent the growth of this type of accident will be launched by police, Superintendent Roach said.
 A department member will be se- lected to act as a sort of adviser and guardian to thousands of youngsters in the city's schools. It will be the duty of this officer to investigate in- cidents such as yesterdays accident and to encourage school children in the pursuit of less dangerous pas- times than playing with lethal wea- ponS.
 In an accident similar to yester- days a 10 year old Waterbury lost his life early last spring.

WORK DEMANDED
 |OF CCC YOUTHS
State Meetings Arranged to Describe Camp Life
 to Future Applicants

In order to impress younger boys who will register for the new eco enrolment in october that they are going on vacation there will be series of eight meetings conducted throughout the state by B. H. Van Buren, state selecting agent, prior to the opening of the new enroll ment. The Waterbury meeting, which will be attended also by boys from neighboring towns, will take place in the aldermanlc chambers on September 15.
 Must Work
 In recent months 8 large num- Der of boys about IT and 18 years of age have enrolled for CCC camp work under the impression that there was no work to be done. There has not been much of this but the state agent wishes to impress the newcomers that they are expected to do days work for a days pay when they are registered at any eco camp.
 About 1,600 boys will attend the meetings in all parts of the state. During the past two months there ,, have been great number of ad- ministrative discharges, the most frequent of these being the result of boys being absent without leave. Many have also been discharged because of unwillingness to work. These discharges have left many openings which will be taken care of during the coming registration period.
 Select Speakers
 At the Waterbury meeting, which will be held at two o'clock in the afternoon, several speakers will ex- plain the CCCesetup to those intend ing to register. Camp command CTS will select the most representa- tive boys from several camps and these young men will give their inl- pressions of the life in the camps There will also be speakers who will impress the boys with the fact that the eco is not charitable or ganization and one which expects a days work for days pay.
