The Hutch Question

When Fred Hutchinson was the
sensation OF the Pacific Coast lea
que rs a pitcher with the Seattle
Rainiers, he was touted as "tht
pitcher with ice water in his veins.
In fact his No. ! weapon was his
ability to fire the baseball past bat
tiers when the chips were on the
line. His No. 2 weapon was control
Freddie seldom walked batter and
he seldom gave a batter a good ball
10 hit.
SO, in studying Freddie perfor-
nance against Washington the
other day, We wonder what has
happened to Seattles boy wonder.
Hutch walked seven batters, was
free with base hits when men were
on the sacks. and was saved on
many occasions by alright fielding.
Is it nervousness in big league
company? Or is it jrst that Hutch
is one of those hurlers who will al
ways be successful in the minors
and failure in the big leagues?
There have been several of those
kinds of pitchers in baseball's his
tory.
In any event. the answer will be
forthcoming within the next few
weeks, because the Seattle hurler
will be given every chance TO make
a 90 OF it with Detroit.

MEMS COUNCIL HEARS
OFFICIAL

Addressing the Mems Council at
Halle Q. Brown House Thursday
evening, John F. Thomas, NYA
official, urged full participation of
adult groups in the attempt to
alleviate some of the problems con-
fronting youth. Mr.. Thomas ex-
planned the set-up of the National
Youth Administration and its place
in the vocational guidance and
placement fields.
Apparently there is a definite
need for skilled workers in certain
endeavors but these workers have
to be carefully selected for train
ing purposes. In many instances
the placement problem becomes one
in which the whole community is
involved. In such cases, adult
groups can be of great service. The
NYA< is still anxious to place
Negro boys at the Shakopee train
ing project. Five youths have al
ready made out their applications.

Diner Employees
Want Roads to
Sign Contracts
DINING CAR MEN ASK FOR
NATIONAL PACT

Chicago, Oct. = (Harold Preece
for CNA)-Negro dining car en-
ployees who cook and serve the
meals for the travelling public are
out to get a signed contract from
the country's major railroads.
Determined cooks, walters, and
lounge porters on the big coaches
gathered with one thought in mind
at a session here of the ALL
Joint Council of Dining Car En-
ployees-the contract. The pro-
posed agreement, which will be
submitted in preliminary form to
the National Railroad Mediation
Board by October Is, demands
that:
1. Working hours be reduced
from 240 to 191 per month.
$50 we can spend some time with
our own families" declared Ish-
mael P. Flory, secretary-tr treasurer
of the body which includes all din
ing car locals of the ALL Hotel
and Restaurant Workers Interna-
tional Alliance.
2. Paid vacations be granted.
8. Payment of time and one-half
be made for overtime.
4. That eight hours be allowed
for any job assigned.
"Under the present set up"
Flory explained, 'tmen are often
assigned to jobs requiring only two
hours to perform and paid accord
ingly even though the workers are
always at the beck and call of the
carriers"
The delegates, assembled from
coast to coast, urged appointment
of A. Philip Randolph, president of
the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car
Porters, to the Railroad Industry
Committee of the Department of
Labor's Wage-Hour Division. They
called upon all Negro and progress
sive white workers and organiza-
tons to send kilograms to Elmer
r. Andrews, wage-hour administra-
tor, in Washington, supporting the
candidacy of Randolph.
The contract and negotiating
committee of, the Council is headed
by George E. Brown, of New York,
international vice-president of the
Hotel and Restaurant Workers rep
resenting the Council. Support by
the international union was pledged
by General President Edward
Flory.

LEGION HEADS BAR ANTI
BIAS MOTION

Chicago, Oct.-(CNA)-A rank
and file move to amend the consti-
tuition of the American Legion to
ban segregation of Negro veterans
was blocked by the top leaders of
the Legion, at the organizations
convention here.
Documented evidence of the bar
ring of Negroes in Georgia, was
presented to the Constitution Com
mittee with a proposed amendment
to ban segregation. The committee
claimed the change was "improp-
erly worded." The same excuse was
used to refer to permanent COM
mittee a resolution calling for
Legion neutrality in strikes.
The Massachusetts, W. E. Carter
Post of Boston gave the committee
a letter sent out by Stanley Jones,
Georgia Department Adjutant,
which said:
eve in Georgia do not recognize
colored veterans in the Legion in
any way. There are no posts for
them in the state and they are not
admitted to membership whatso-
ever"
