National Youth Administration

One of the most distressing consequences
of economic depressions is the c~ollapsing of
opportunities for those whose immaturity
makes them dependent upon others. 1t is in
those plastic years that occur the best oppor-
tunities for physical growth and the develop
ment of basic work habits. The recent de-
preston took from so many boys and girls
and young persons the birthright of free per-
sons that their problem was included in our
national relief program. Through no fault
of theirs, children we're unable to continue
at grade school because their fathers had no
jobs and their families no incomes; older
boys and girls had no funds to continue
through high school or college. Not to pro-
vide relief meant to permit a great scar to
develop in the lives of those who must be
our citizens and who must do the Nations
work in thes future. AS a matter Of justice
to the young, the National Youth Admins
tration was authorized by Executive Order
under the WPA. Now in its third year this
agency has a remarkable record of work to
its credit with many boys and girls helped
over a difficult period and enabled to move
along a constructive way of life.
With the money allotted to it by the Presi-
dent, highly decentralized administrative
procedure has been set up, allotting funds to
the various states, taking into consideration
population and needs with the provision that
negroes and whites should share equally. To
the states was left responsibility for using the
funds for the education of students through
work projects. A flexible, experimental atti-
tude toward this new youth service permit
ted the funds to follow educational need
student aid was provided for the part-time
employment of needy students to permit
them to continue their education; for youths
out of school but without jobs work projects
with related education were provided; guild
ance and placement divisions have been de-
veloped within publ: employment offices in
n cities in 80 states. The placing of persons
without work experience requires methods
different from those used for adults who have
held jobs. All work projects must meet the
test of being socially useful so that both the
work and the related instruction have edu-
cational value to the persons employed and
the results Of their work have permanent
value to the community.
The vocational training is adapted to the
needs and interests of the individual and di-
rected toward migrating him as a member
of society. Individual capacity and develop

Education in the South

Statistics cited at a recent forum discus
sion by Jess Barnett, Commonwealth student
and former teacher in the Arkansas public
schools, throw some light on the deplorable
condition of education in the South. Of the
3,1O1 white school districts in Arkansas,
Barnett said, 1888 have five teachers or less.
There are 2,679 ~one-teacher schools in the
state. Only 80 per cent of the white pupils
attend school for the full nine months; 81 per
cent have seven months schooling, while Is
per cent have six months or less; $4,000
children get less than ninety days. These
figures do not include the Negro schools,
which would Of course lower the averages
greatly.
The average salary of a white school
teacher in the South, according to Barnett,
is $45 a month; for a Negro teacher the figure
is $35. In many cases these salaries are paid
in warrants rather than in cash, so that they
are subject to a further discount averaging
ten per cent.

Bombing Civilians in Wartime

The wholesale bombing of Barcelona by
the forces of Francisco Franco, commander
in chief of the insurgents in Spain against
the loyalist government, has brought forth
condemnation from many sources. Accord
ing to reliable reports at least 872 persons
in Barcelona were killed during 48 hours of
raids by General Frances bombers, most of
the planes in the ruthless attack upon the
civilian population, it is said, being operated
by m~ercenaries from Hitler's Nazi satellites
in Germany and Mussolinis Fascists in Italy,
both of these dictatorial governments having
supported General Franco because of his ex
pressed determination to impose upon the
Spanish people the same form of totalitarian
terrorism and lack of liberty that Hitler and
Mussolini have applied to the masses in Ger
many and Italy.
Joining with Pope Plus and Secretary of
State Cordell Hull in expressing a sense of
horror at the slaughter of civilian popula-
ton in Barcelona, President William Green
of the American Federation of Labor, made
the following statement regarding the bomb
ing of noncombatants in Spain:
'"The American Federation of Labor pro-
tested with one voice at its last convention
against the cruel bombing of Chinese civil
ians by japanese airplanes. l am certain
that I voice the unanimous feeling of the
members of the Federation now in urging
the leaders of the Spanish revolution to
abandon such inhuman, %uncivilized and
hateful methods Of warfare
American labor is Mortified by the in
defensible slaughter of innocent women and
children in air raids in Spain. No justifca-
ton can be found for the murderous bomb
ing of civilians in Barcelona.
1t is to be hoped that the numerous pro-
tests from all parts of the civilized world
will persuade General Franco to refrain
from further murder of civilians in his war
to conquer the Spanish people.

Industrial Strife at Forrest City

An example of how the inroads of indus
trialization into the South divide a commune
ty against itself and bring about enmity be-
tween n~eighbors is afforded by the situation
in Forrest City, Ark, where %unionization Of
a small garment shop has given rise to con-
siderable ill-feeling.
The shop opened about two years ago, m
ploying some $50 girls. Although Forrest
City is located in the heart of the plantation
district and attempts at share-cropper organi-
cation in the vicinity had met with merciless
repression, the International Ladies Garment
Workers Union determined to fight the
sweatshop conditions, and succeeded in or
ganizing the workers. The National Labor
Relations Board ordered the company to
recognize and deal with the union, where
upon the shop closed its doors.
That happened eight months ago. Now
twenty-nine church, municipal, and civic
organizations, not realizing that decent wages
and working conditions are essential to the
well-being of the community, have petitioned
the Labor Board to reverse its action. The
Labor Board will of course do no such thing.
The union is still standing firm, and chances
are that the company will eventually reopen
as a union shop. Meanwhile, however, the
girls report that old friends have refused to
speak to them on the street, and well-inten-
toned citizens of Forrest City have wasted
much indignation denouncing the union agi-
tators' instead of turning their anger against
the sweatshop employer and the competitive
system behind him.

A~nti-Lynching Bill Killed


The an~ti-lynching bill is dead, killed by the
flibustering voices of Southern Senators.
Says the Nation in requiem: ct has become
clear that the fight against the bill had an
economic base. 1t was a fight on the part of
reactionaries in the South not only to con-
tinue the right of terrorizing Negroes
through lynching, but also to continue the
right of terrorizing whites as we'll as Negroes
and keep them from organizing for decent
wages and for political and educational OPP
%portunities. The fight against the bill has
done much to complete the process of bring
ing the Negroes to political consciousness. 1t
has become clear to them who their enemies
are, and clear also that their enemies are the
enemies of civil liberties and economic prog
ress.''

Georgia Chain Gang Ended

Word comes that the Georgia chain gang
system, long a byword for brutality and ter
ror, has been wiped out by legislative action.
With the chain gang, presumably, go the in
human practices of the shackles, the lash
and the sweat-box. The gangs are to be
replaced by work camps. The thought occurs,
however, that the work camps had best be
watched closely; for unless the entire penal
system has been cleaned up, the old abuses
are bound to creep back.

ment are the primary considerations while
work and personal habits are disciplined by
the interests growing out of work.
The National Youth Administration de-
tached from educational control and with a
flexible program, has achieved educational
results that are a challenge to schools and to
institutional rightly. The teachers of voca-
tional education could well profit by studying
how the results were obtained-American

he was welcome to it. II I hadn't made
that bargain with you I probably
would have shot him, but when I saw
him catch that Rat was glad OF the

himself to Rats I would be glad to
have him around"

Evidence" repeated Farmer Browns
Boy. An Owl always spits out the
evidence to prove what he has been
eating. I've brought over the evidence
from three kinds of Owls, to prove
that they are more useful than HARM

be protected"
