BraWley residents recently heard
a peppering Ca their roofs. Was it

hail, Not bombs. But rice. Was it
poisoned rice scattered by our Nip

No. Just rice scattered from a

On the Closing of the Negro Wards at the
Mississippi Tuberculosis Sanitoriurn

Last week, Dr. Henry Boswell,
Supt., of the Mississippi State
Tubercular Sanitarium announced
that the Negro Wards of the insti-
tuition would be closed at the end
of the current month because all of
the Negro nurses at the institution
were quitting at that time, with
most of them going into the nurses
service of the United States Army
Announcing the closing of the
wards, DR. Boswell said:
I regret more than l can say that
this step has to be taken Our
place for the colored is entirely too
small, but it has been don a Won
derful piece of work for them and
it seems to me a really disgraceful
state of affairs when / am unable
to secure colored nurses to take care
of their own race, and this is espe-
cially true when the cOlored nurses
are paid the same salary as the
white nurses doing the same type
of work Consequently, there can
be no dissatisfaction on the part
of any Of the colored nurses from
the salary standpoint, no more than
we have in the white nursing pro-
fession, and it does seem to me that
some members Of the race would
have interest enough in their sick
to help us out when we are trying
to do so much or them, but this
has not occurred and it is with deep
regret that I close this part of the
institution within the next week"
Recognizing the inadequacy OF
the wards as compared to the needs
of the Negro victims of the dread
ed in Mississippi, approaching the
work that had been done, and was
being done for Negroes, there ex-

out that there is very considerable
scepticism among not only Negroes

circumstances as the insistences of

of the Committee on Fair EN-
ton giving rise to apprehension is
the fact that only Northern or Dor
der cities are included in those

elimination the NAACP said. Since
the majority of Negroes live in the
South, it is there that discrimina-
ton, particularly with respect to
the use of Negroes in skilled and
semi-skilled capacities, as we'll as
in the matter of training and up
grading, is most deep-rooted and
widespread. The NAACP expressed
its hope that the brazen revolt of

listed more in the symbol than in
fact. Certainly every right think
ing citizen of the state will join
with DR.. Boswell in regretting the
close of the wards; but upon the
minds of the Negro citizens of the
state there is an added tragic, and
heavy burden.
With the closing of the wards as
announced, it must assumed, in the
light of DR. BoswellS statement THAI
the Negro patients now at the. in
stitution will be sent back to their
home to be cared for by their
families, or to seek disqualification
in the private Negro hospitals of
the state where no such facilities
exist.
Writing on tuberculosis in a re-
cent issue Of Liberty Magazine, Mr.
Morris Marley, after citing the de-
crease in the mortality rate due to
the disease, said: But mark these
facts we'll: tuberculosis is still first
J on the list of infectious or COM
municable diseases. With Mr..
! Markey's statement in mind, the
closing Of the Negro Wards, with
the known susceptibility of the Ne
gro to the disease, and its preva-
lance among the Negroes of the
state should not only be a cause of
regret, but should also be matter
Of the deepest concern to every citi-
zen of the state, white and Negro,
alike.
Reading DR.. BosWell's statement,
one is likely to reach the imme-
date conclusion of condemning
the Negro Nurses now leaving the
institution for their lack of a spiri;
of altruism and sacrifice, and OF
conservation to the service of theft

high calling However, before reach
ing a conclusion it is we'll to con-
slider reports regarding the operat-
ton of the Negro Wards where the
practical nurses receive a salary Of
twenty dollars per month, ano
graduate nurses a salary of twenty
five dollars per month At the same
time being required to perform
duties made the more exacting be-
cause of the location of the Negro
Wards with respects to the main
buildings where the Negro patients
receive everything except housing
and food
In viewing the situation, both
with respects to the present and
the future, there arises again the
questions of all persons employed
by the state being paid a salary
comparable to their training and
| ability, and to the standards fixed
for such occupations; as we'll as
the need for the enlargement of
the opportunities for training Ne
gro Nurses in the State.
Finally, every citizen will agree
With DR.. Boswell that the situation
presents a disgraceful state of af-
fairs-and it will become increasing
ly disgraceful unless something is
done to correct the conditions that
have made such state of affairs
possible, but, with the finger of
disgrace pointing directly to the
state Of Mississippi.

technical ability and training" u.
S. Maritime Commissioner Emory
S. Land has refused to seriously
consider pleas of the union on
questions of discrimination, union
officials emphasize.
Chronicling the past years
events, the NMU recalled an in
cident which occurred just a few
days after the President banned
discrimination in the maritime
industry, at the Moore McC ormack
shipbuilding company The report
stated:
Just few days after the Presi-
dents order to the union sent
four Negro brothers over to Nor
macport where the men were told
they were mot wanted The ships
crow held meeting, however, and
voted not to sail unless the color
ed men were hired" This move
defeated the company's pretense
that it was willing to hire the
men, but that the crew objected to
them, the union pointed out. Com
mander Lee of Moore McC ormack
gave as his reason for failure to
hire the Negroes: "They were all
communists"
The report continues: This red
batting nonsense can now be seen
as the desire of shipowner to
continue a destructive and dis
ruptive policy which benefited him,
not the men or the war effort"
National Maritime Union Presi-
dent Curran tells of victories on
other ships and high point reach
ed in May when operating mana
gers of the Moore Nc orrnick and
Matson lines in San Francisco as
Sured the Bag Area Council Against
Discrimination that they would
no longer determine their hiring
policies 'by color considerations.
Another remarkable victory was
won against the Grace line in
June Of last year, the union de-
clareS, that line being one of the
last and strongest holdouts against
employing Negroes. The union sent
four colored requirements to the
Grace line Santa Cruz on June
"a and three other Negroes to
MS Courageous. The company re-
fused to hire them saying: These
are white ships" The company
yielded, however, after crew mem

CITE RESOLUTION
The Santa Cruz deck department
adopted a resolution at this time
saying, I'VE go down the line 1OC
percent in unfolding the policy of
the National Maritime union and
the rotary hiring system" At a New
York membership meeting in June
l941, $500 members had gone on
record for full, unconditional
rotary shipping" A resolution al
this meeting read:
we will set the example for al
others by completely abolishing lin
crow aboard ship. pledging to work
i've and fight alongside all those
devoted to the destruction Of
fasclsm." In taking this pledge
they affirmed their complete sup
port for President Roosevelt de-
clared policy of wiping out al
discrimination against race, Greco
or color
The long and uphill fight of the
union against discrimination which
Gates back to the beginning of the
NMU and the constitutional pro-
vision against discrimination in
regard to membership, was crowned
by glorious victory in Septem-
Der, with the granting of a com
mand to Capt. Hugh Mulzac, the
only Negro holding a masters
license, the union declares.

 He said he was pleased with the way the schools are proceeding in spite of the fact that many instruc- tors have been lost because of the big differential in salaries offered by the schools and elsewhere. En- lollment in the three schools, he said, has dropped but little.
 Dr. Ryan said that the chief worry of the various school boards is whether enough teachers will be available next year and whether any arrangement can be worked out to increase salaries. The 1887 Ter ritorial Legislature provided that an $500 a year minimum be es- abolished and maintined Any pres ent increases, it ws pointed out, must come from the municipalities
