country over that hire Negro help.
The porter is a vital factor in the
sale of service, he informed the
students, and this is really what
the Company exists to sell. Al
though we have professional men
and business men, the masses of
Negroes for a long time to come
will be workers, and if the busin-
ess man is to be successful, he OBJ
served, it will be because he does
business with successful workers.
Since the working people r the
foundation of the Negro race, we
cannot make much progress unless
this foundation is built on a solid
rock, he said. The Brotherhood
of Sleeping Car Porters has open
ed up a way to show Negroes what
can be done, the speaker conclud-
ed, with a result that workers
have definite hours with pay for
overtime, and now the Negro can
get proper recognition regardless
of whether he is located in the
North or South.

THREE COUNTIES ADD APRIL

The examination of our highway

three counties added April fatalit-

previous months of 1941. Doug

after a mo death" month during
March.
However, Nebraskans must be
grateful for the second successive

NAACP. ASKS
TO PREVENT SLASH IN
IN WPA. FUNDS

New York-President Roosevelt
was notified Thursday, May 8
that the Negro people of the coun-
try will suffer seriously if i'm
pending slashes in WPA funds be-
come a reality.
Those who argue for the cut
state that because of the defense
program there is less need for the
WPA. since workers will be &C.
ing into private employment.
In a letter to the President, Wal
ter White, secretary of the Nation
al Association for the Advance
ment of Colored People, made it
clear that there is notorious dis
elimination on the part of en-
ployers, some labor unions and
some officials in national defense
work. This fact alone means that
Negroes will constitute, through
no fault of their own, an ~increas-
ingly large proportion of the WPA
rolls.
In addition, the President was
reminded, there are comparatively
few defense industries in the
South where the largest number
of people on WPA are Negroes,
and even now hundreds are wait
ing assignment to the lists, but
lack of funds keeps them off.
If WPA is d~rastically reduced,
it vas pointed out, Negro and
white workers who are denied OPP
portunities in private employment
will be thrown on local charity
which, because of increased taxes,
may not be able to support them.
1--WE contend that it is not un-
reasonable to ask" the letter con-
cludes, "that until such time as
the barriers to employment in pri-
vate industry which face Negroes
are broken down that they should
not be deprived of WPA employ
ment. Negroes don't want to stay
on WPA, but conditions beyond
their control cause most of them
to face the choice of either remain
ing on WPA or starving"

SELECTEES ALLOWED TEN
DAYS TO ADJUST PERSONAL
AFFAIRS BEFORE INDUC-
TION INTO ARMY LIFE

Seeking to prevent undue hard
ship in registrants selected for
military training, Selective Serv-
ice Regulations have been amend
ed to allow s~electees at least ten
days 10 adjust their personal af-
fairs after an order to report for
induction has been received, Brig
adler General Guy N. Henninger,
State Director of Selective Service
announced today. And this ter
day adjustment period, he stated,
ian be extended by local boards up
to 60 or more days if need is prov
en-.
Previously, General Henninger
pointed out, at least five days bad
to elapse between the time a reg
istrant r. eeived his order to report
and the actual date of induction.
The amendment extending the per-
iod to ter days and authorizing To-
cal boards to increase it to sixty
or more Gays when they deem such
extensions justified, states:
1.-THE time specified for report
ing shall be at least ten days af-
ter the date the order is mailed:
provided, in any case where unus-
ual Individual hardship will oth-
e;wise result, the local board may,
whether or not the order to report
for induction has been mailed,
postpone the time when such reg
istrant shall so report for a period
of not to exceed sixty days frorl
the date of such postponemsnt,
subject, however to further post
ponement upon good cause thefa-
for being shown"
The new amendment, General
H%enninger said, gives local boatds
full! authority to afford individual
:ogistrants an opportunity to make
ADJUSTMENTS in their business sf-
fairs, take examinations required
of certain profess ions by state
laws, and otherwise make salts
factory arrangements in their r-i-
vate lives before entering the mil
itary establishment.

PHILLIP RANDOLPH PREDICTS DRASTIC
CHANGES IN ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL LIFE

Atlanta, Ga, May lin one of
the most dynamic addresses eve
delivered from the rostrum Of Sale
Hall Chapel, Mr.. A. Phillip Ran
dolph, president of the Brother
hood of Sleeping Car Porters, pre-
dicted to come in this generation
"some of the most profound trans
formations in our economic and
social life that have even been
witnessed in the modern world.
Changes are taking place that are
so vast the students were told,
that unless we are able to adapt
ourselves to them, Capitalization
will set in that will prevent us
from ever taking our place in the
new economy
mo longer can the Negro de-
pend on outside agencies, the
speaker declared, as philantropic
foundations are drying up and the
good people who were concerned
about humanity are not existing
as they once did," A great chal-
lenge to the young Negro of today
as described by Mr.. Randolph is
in the organization of the power
of the masses. "Get tools of in
formation and learn how to an
alyze problems, he told the stud
ents, "develope power, intelligence
courage, and the will to do, and
go out into the masses and place
your genius into industry. Or
ganize c~ooperatives upon the
farms, consumer ~cooperatives in
cities, tradeu Mons, tenant farm
er organizations, develope mass
movements in order to place pow
er Where it might be of greatest
advantage to the group, for in this
area is the new craftsmanship a
mong Negro people" Rewards
might not come in terms of money,
Mr.. Randolph said, but in the high
er terms of service to the race and
the nation.
The Speaker is a former lectur-
err at the Rand School of Social
Sciences in New York. He is one
of the most able leaders in labor
circles today, and was in Atlanta
this week to hold conferences with
members of organized labor. He
is the editor of 1.-THE Black Work
err, a labor journal and author of
"Terms of Peace and Darker Rae
es" and the "Truth About Lynch
ing".
Accompanying Mr.. Randolph to

Webster, first vice president of the
Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Por-
ters and Chairman of its internal

challengingly to the Morehouse
students about the work of the
Brotherhood, stating that the eff

progress can be made on the indus

At his morning service, Moth
ers' Day, Rev. T. A. Sears, Pastor
of the st. John AME. Church,
prophetically announced that he
had felt called to perform a spec
ial task. 1t seems obvious that
the completion of st. John is a
part of that task. The plans
which Rev. Sears outlined to his
audiences unday, placed him def
initely in the ranks of those lead
ers who not only dream dreams,
but who possess great executive
ability and tact.
Materials for the new church
auditorium will be placed on the
ground this week. With much
faith in future possibilities for St.
John Church, Rev. Sears predict
ed that the expense for the new
auditorium would be completely
done away with in a Second Mort

place on Monday after the first
Sunday in May in 1947.
