his engagement have been rife, but
the tall, smiling young bronzed
man says no, and shakes his head.

On State Jobs
Bill Passes

For four years VIM. H. CASTOR,
retired st. Paul police officer who
lives at 1872 Eaton Ave-, has been
carrying on a one-man lobby to
strike at race and religious dis
elimination on state jobs. Mr..
CASTOR sought the passage of law

islature but failed to get it out of
committee.
This year with the cooperation of
Representative John Drexler his
bill was favorably reported by the
labor committee and passed the
House by comfortable majority.
One of the main provisions of
the law is that: "No contractor,
material supplier, or vendor, shall
in any manner, discriminate
against, or intimidate or prevent
the employment of any such per-
son or persons, or on being hired,
prevent, or conspire to prevent, any
such person or persons from per-
Torrance Of work under contract
on account of race, creed or color"
The bill will now be sent to the
Senate for consideration.
