Curley then indicated that support of
President Roosevelt's foreign policies
would be one of his campaign planks.
'If Hitlerism means the destruction of
religion, if Hitlerism means the return
of people to serfdom, there is no place
on the sidelines for anyone who calls
himself an American, he declared, ex-
tolling Roosevelt as "far seeing and
courageous.
Curley said he had almost gone broke
fighting for the preservation Of a prin-
ciple-the rift of trial by a jury of
ones peers. He said he was entitled to
it, had been fighting for it for four
years, and he intended to win this right,
not only for the sake of himself and his
family but also for the sake Of every
man and woman in the Commonwealth.

He said he was the victim of "a de-
hberate and dastardlv frameup of the
monOyed powers" and asserted that his
libel suit for $5OO,OOO damages against
Boston newspaper called for trial in
30 days after long postponement, would
vindicate him.
Apologizing for referring to his per-
sonal affairs, the former Governor paid
an eloquent tribute to the courage and
resistance of the patriots at Bunker
Hill. Turning to the present conflict,
he said the question before the nation
was not one of saving England or of
saving France, but of preserving and
protecting America against Hitlerism.

because of race, religion or national ori-
gin. It is said that at time when labor
stringencies are appearing in many
areas, fully qualified workers are being
turned from the gates of industry on
specifications entirely unrelated to eff
cheney and productivity. Also that dis
elimination against colored workers has
been nationwide, and other minority
racial, national and religious groups
have felt its effects in many localities.
This situation is a matter of grave ma
tional Importance, and immediate steps
must be taken to deal with it effectively.
I note with satisfaction that the
Office of Production Management has
recognized the seriousness of this situa-
ton, and that on April IL, 1941, it ad-
dressed a letter on the subject to all
holders of defense contracts. AS Chief
Executive of the Nation I place the
full support of my Office behind your
statement to the effect that, "All hold
ers Of defense contracts are urged to
examine their employment and training
policies at once to determine whether or
not these policies make ample provision
for the full utilization of available and
competent colored workers. Every
available source of labor capable of
producing defense materials must be
tapped in the present emergency"
No nation combating the increasing
threat of totalitarianism can afford ar
bitrarily to exclude large segments of
its population from its defense indus
tries. Even more important is it for
us to strengthen our unity and morale

RACE DISCRIMINATION
The plight of the colored performers
is deplorable e.. they are kept out of
employment by rank discrimination be-
cause of their color 1t is charged
that American proprietors of the night
spots in particular have made colored
entertainment taboo in the gay spots
in the Broadway sector, especially the
Eastside; foreigners are the only cafe
owners who will give colored person
employment. For instance, the Rain
bow Room atop Radio City has denied
our people any consideration, as is the
case of other similar resorts. Many
Of our most talented singers, musi-
clans, have worked in the most fasti-
dous spots in Europe, one in particu-
lar who sings in eleven different Ian
guages but all are refused; the only
opportunity they get is at private par

pleasant situation are Carol Boyd, Ro-
