Leaders of the Kelsey Hayes
division of Local TIA, UAW-CIO,
are again attempting TO gain
autonomy for their division.
Led by Chester tMoont Mullins
the move is aimed at clipping the
political wings of three prominent
UAW-CIO men. They are Michael
Manning. president of ia; Victor
e.. Reuther, trustee, and George
Edwards, city councilman.
All three come from the Kelsey
division and represent the con-
trolling faction in TIA. the largest
amalgamated local in the JAW.
If the Kelsey division was
granted a separate charter they
then would be ineligible to hold
office or openly WELD their infu-
ence in Local TIA.
Mullins and his followers feel
that they have enough support to
prevent any one of the three from
securing a key position in the

On The Presidency Of Alcorn College

FOR A CONSIDERABLE TIME interested and intel-

the office OF the Agricultural Extension Service from Jack

On such important public question: especially where
much interest had been aroused and in keeping with the
proper function of the Newspaper expressed ourselves
edoriay in which took the side of the question where

of those affected by the work of these offices.
We have been unable our minds to attach any harm
to the fact that the matter aroused such interest and that
there developed two groups opinions on issue In fact
we take the position that such differences of opinion when
considered the merits the question at issue is dis
tncty healthy sign among the Negro citizens of the state

who like ourselves opposed to the office going to AL
cor have attempted to epose upon the issue thus raised
the question of the presidency OF Aon College Pres

To that President Bell not interested in the
