Tain't So About
Public Housing;
RumOrS ScOffed

PHILADELPHIA,-(ANP) -,
Since Philadelphia has refused 19
million dollars for slum clearance,
it seems that white people here
are trying their best to get into
the James Weldon Johnson hous-
es in place Of the 535 Negro fam
lies who would otherwise be ac'
commodated.
To frighten Negroes away from
the houses, all kinds of rumors
have been set afloat. They run
something like this:
1. Young women cent enter
tain male guests without a chape-
rome.
2. Tenants won't be allowed to
have radios.
3. Tenants won't be allowed to
do any laundry.
4. That tenants must get IN
before II p. m. each night.
All these runors, of course, are
untrue but it seems that large
interest in the houses.

WORKERS TO HOLD JUBILEE
CONVENTION IN CINCINNATI

Cincinnati, Ohio. 0LNS).-Edward
Flore, president of the Hotel and Res
taurant Employees International Ali
ance and Bartenders' International
League Of America announces that the
3Cth general convention of the organ
ization-the golden jubilee convention
will be held beginning Monday,
April p, 1941 in Cincinnati instead
of Toledo.
President Flore said that the gen.
eral executive board found it neces
sary, because suitable hotel accomoda
tions could not be found in Toledo to
move the golden jubilee convention to
another city and that after careful
thought the board decided that the
most logical city would be the city in
which the international headquarters
are located, Cincinnati.
The convention will be held in the
Hall of Mirrors, Netherland Plaza Ho-
tel. Convention headquarters will be
in the unions general headquarters,
permitting the delegates to choose
their hotel Accommodations from any of
the Cincinnati hotels.

ment, affecting more than 6,0C0 en-
ployes, would cost the two companies

provides for general wage increases
of 81 to So weekly, a closed shop, re-
employment of clerk -draftees without
loss of seniority tfEck benets, time
anda-half for overtime to be paid ir
cash rather than time off, the right
of the union to provide all new help
