Bad for Children

Hartford, Conn. School
lunches that are too big are
bad for the children's health.
This is the warning of Miss
Elizabeth c. Nichols, director of

Lunch periods are usually
short, she says, and children gulp
their food and then wash it down
with liquid.

FORMER FAsCINISTs

In Montgomery county, Major
E. Brooke Lee, of Silver Spring
has suddenly become a personal
issue. Dem ocratic independents
think they see in recent county
maneuVerings a purpose to domi-
nate organization decisions as a
prelude to a new emergence as
county boss.
There appeared to be a real
threat that the organization slate
for local and State offices will be
opposed by a substantial minority
bloc, with a third group, as yet
unorganized, milling around in the
county corral, unbranded by either
side and kicking up a lot of dust
on their own account. AL obServ,
ers agree that the slide of some
fOrIner FusioniSts back into the
old party camps has not ended the

S. Employment
Continued from Page u

domestic and personal service, 10
per cent in agriculture, and CD per
cent in manufacturing.
The most favorable plaeemen
rate for Negroes was in agrlcul-
ture where 81 per cent Of the men
and 81 per cent of the women we're
colored. The ratio of placements
was high also in construction and
manufacturing. In most of the other
industrial group, including domes-
tic and personal service, the pro
portion of colored placements was
less than their proportion Of ap'
Dlieants.
In the South where placements
we're concentrated in the laborlng
occupations, the proportion Of Ne
groes placed was SO tremendous as
to make placements of coloreo
workers more numerous than place
ments of whites, In the North, on
the other hand, where there was
need for skilled workers, the place
ment opportunities for Negroes
was limited. More colored women
were placed in the North than mep
because of the large number OF
openings in domestic and personal
service. which accounted for nearly
four-fifths of applications and
placements among colored.
Placements of COlored Applicant
as Compared with Whites
The industrial distribution of
placements of Negroes varied from
whites. Of colored men placed, 81
per cent were in bul ding and con
struetion, compared to % per cent
white men. % per cent as compar-
ed to AZ per cent white men were
on relief projects. Only 6 per cent
of white men were placed in agri-
culture compared to 20 per cent
colored men-65 per cent of whom
we're in Texas and California, and
more than 85 per cent only tenn
poraily. In domestic and personal
service, there were 7 per cent col
ored men compared to 5 per cent
white. Manufacturing, in which s
per cent white men we're placed, in
Guided only 6 per cent of colored
male applicants.
More than IS per cent of all col
ored women and only 56 per cent
of white women were placed in
domestic and personal service. Elk
aetly 10 per cent of colored women
but less than 2 per cent of white
women were in agriculture. Place
ment of colored women in manu-
featuring industries was 65 per
cent of the total compared to Is
per cent for white women, and was
almost exclusively in the food, tex
tile, and miscellaneous industries.
The processing of tobacco products
was one of the largest industries,
and the most likely TO absorb large
numbers of Negroes.
1t is evident then, that Negroes
were placed in less lucrative and
mare temporary jobs. For the most
mt. those jobs which carried with
them s@me degree of permanency
were filled by WHITES.

 "YOu're A Sweetheart
Bv Bill Porter

Current attractions concluding their engagements tonight after a successful run at Warner Brothers cozy and comfortable Strand the ater include: "Tovarich" co-starring Claudette Colbert and Charles Boyer; also Anna May Wong in Daughter of Shanghai.
 Make a date to see the outstand- ing twin feature program which opens a three day engagement at the Strand starting Sunday. The feature attraction is that smart filmusical You're A Sweetheart with Alice Faye in the leading role accompanied by such screen per- sonalities as George Murphy, Ken Murray and Oswald, Andy Devine and many othes.
 Seen in a dancing role for the first time on the screen, Alice Faye and George Murphy form new team of dancing stars, backed by a chorus of pretty girls, that will lit- erally take ones breath away as they spin, whirl and glide to the newest song creation1 of Jimmy McHugh and Harold Adamson.
 The action starts when Ken Mur- ray, as the producer of an elaborate musical comedy, finds that his opening is doomed to failure be- cause of strong counter attractions
 He can not postpone the event, SC he listens to George Murphy, who suggests that he hire someone tc impersonate a fabulous Oklahoma millionaire, in love with the shows star, Alice Faye, who buys out the entire house for a week in order to
