l. The admittance of Negro
tra1nees in pipefitting, welding,
sheet metal and electrical defense
courses at Philadelphia for antici-
pated employment at the Cramp
Shlpbuilding Company yards.
2. The conclusion of an agree
ment with West Coast unions and
shipbuilders for the transfer of
Negro building trades workers to
the shipbuilding yards for imme-
date construction employment.
Plans for the doubling of the Ne
gro personnel at the Sun Ship
building Company were outlined
TO field representative of DR..
Weaver'S office by G. r. Burke,
Vice President of the shipbutlding
firm.
Earlier, John G. Pew, President,
had informed OPM that Negroes
already constituted 10 percent of
Suns employees, and that they
were integrated into the forge
and blacksmith shops, foundry,
pipefitting department. boiling
and roaming, riveting, storeroom,
yard maintenance, bending shop,
garage and janitor service.
Mr.. Burke revealed that an ad-
d1tional $50 Negro workers would
be hired in these departments when
the employment peak is reached.
and that many of the present
workers would be promoted to
foreman and supervisory positions.
At the Cramp Shipbuilding Com
pany, DR.. G. r. Pendleton, Director
OF Training, accepted a suggestion
OF the OPM representative that
100 Negroes be referred immedi-
ately from the Pennsylvania State
employment Service for examina-
tlon and defense training in ship
building operations at the Mast
baum Vocational School Annex.
DR.. Pendleton has already referr-
ed four Negro trainees to Mast
baum for training in pipefitting.
Welding, sheet metal and electrical
work Since peak employment is
not expected at Cramps before
1912, a sizeable number of Negro
workers will have an opportunity
to secure the necessary training.
The West Coast agreement for
the transfer of Negro building
construction workers to shipbuild-
ing construction work in Pacific
Coast yards was instituted by DR..
Weaver on recent field trip to
that area. The agreement result
ed from conferences between union
and Shipbuilding officials and DR.

What is the Democratic policy
Of our Government Is it justice
freedom and liberty? Our Consti-
tuition provides for equal rights
and special privileges to all, re-
gardless of Race, Creed, Color or
serVitude. The Constitution is the
foundation of our Government and
no government can be any bet
ter than the foundation upon which
it stands. The policies of our gov
eminent that are now being prac-
ticed are for from being true de-
mocracy. The Constitution doesn't
mean a thing So far as the Negro
is concerned, We are not governed
by the laws upon which our gov
ernment is built, but we are forced
to be guided b y a policy or a prac-
tice. which is usually filled with
prejudice, discrimination, segrega-
tion and lynchihg; such policies
are reflection upon our govern
nlent.
President Roosevelt made a
progressive step towards civiliza-

and is willing to risk his life in
the air or at the bottom of the
sea to defend his country: no ma
tionality in the world has more
courage, but his chances have
been abridged by unfair policies
We are hoping that the banding
Of discrimination in connection
with the defense program will be
step towards crushing such poll
cies as a whole. Someone has mis-
construed the meaning Of De-
mocracy. If Hitlerism is aimed at
destroying freedom, liberty aud
just rights, then I say to XXX
with it, but if Democracy stands
for the principles that records to
every man! and woman the rights
end privileges that is due them,
then I say let's fight and die like
heroes of the past, Saying, Give
me liberty or give me death Not
