WASHINGTON. D. C.-(SNS)--
An agreement that Negro union
carpenters will receive the first rs
of an estimate 200 new carpentry
jobs in the construction Of the
Volunteer Ordnance Works in
Tennessee was announced today
by DR.. Robert G. Weaver, chief of
the Negro Employment and Train
ing Branch. Labor Division, WPB.
This agreement was reached on
March 1G, 1912, by representatives
of DR.. Weaver's office and the
Presidents Committee on Fair
Employment Practice IN con-
ference with representatives OF
Negro and white carpenters locals
in Chattanooga, the contractors,
the War Department and the

the federal government, through
local representatives OF its varied
agencies, has become a party TO
the plot. AT first the movement TO
block black Georgians from the
good paying industrial pursuits was
subtle. Now the forces, which would
again enslave Negroes have, under
the guise of national defense
come out in the open.
MOVEMENT DANGEROUS
Like an ugly spider carefully
weaving web OF sticky entang1e-
ment about the feet Of an unsus-
pecting fly has been this under
ground movement to Illustrate the
ambition and aspiration of the
black worker to take his place be-
side those of other races on the
assembly lines of the states indus
trial plants.
When one realizes that the labor
pattern for the next fifty or seven
ty-fiye years is being fixed now,
the dangers in the present deter
mined effort to push the already
low level of the Negro worker still
lower, can be better visioned.
Because the tradition Of the
South has always been to depend
upon black men for all kinds Of
labor, skilled and unskilled, those
who would prevent them from re-
ceiving the currently high wages

not only to thwart this tradition,
but to sidestep the stated policy of
the national administration that
there would be no discrimination
based on race.
VICIOUS CIRCLE FORMED
A vicious circle has been formed
around the Negro worker who
either seeks to learn a defense
trade or would improve his old
skill as a worker.
This circle is formed with such
malicious intent that it leaves the
Negro worker but one avenue of
escape. He either must take the
mental. the dirty, the unwanted
and despised occupations i'm in
dustry, or accept the miserable lot
of a peonage-like existence as
farm laborer in Georgia. or
Starye.
In Georgia, the circle is formed
by four angles. One. the state di-
rector of vocational defense train
ing handles federal money appro-
priated by Congress for the train
ing of defense workers.
The other three angles include
the various local advisory councils,
the local school boards and the
u. S. Employment Offices, which
under the management of local
persons, have become a party to
the plot.
INTENTION is CLEAR
The ramifications of this setup
are myriad, but the intention is
crystal clear. No black men in
Georgia will be given training in
the higher paying defense skills.
If sufficient pressure is brought
upon the state director to authorize
defense course for Negroes, the
local advisory council gets the
wink and turns it down, or the
u. S. Employment Office contends
there are not enough Negroes regis
tered or there is no demand for
this particular training, or the
school board says there is just
not enough floor space to add
more courses. Sometimes the circle
works this way, at other times it
reverSeS itself.
The result is that the ruling Of
fair minded Congress that there
should be no racial discrimination
in the expenditure of these federal
funds for defense training is per-
niciouSly nullified.

housing because of the need for
housing in his native Ecuador.
DR.. Mortensen indicated that he

referred to the way in which
Greenbelt had it's residential
areas, shopping center, and recre-

He expressed himself as pleased
