There is an equal obligation upon
management to support this agree
ment. That obligation requires that
management should be and remain
above suspicion in its handling of
all grievances. No room should be
left for the thought in the minds of
the workers that the management at
any particular plant is attempting to
take advantage of the fact that the
workers have bound themselves not
to strike. Loyal managers will exert
every effort to settle all grievances
promptly, going beyond the ordinary

Young EnroIIee
Wants To Be With
Negro Soldiers
Unrestricted
Volunteer Division
Given Praise

NEW YORK. CITY-(SNS)- Ger-
aid White, young white New York
er indicted last Thursday into the
United States Marine Corps, has re-
auested that he be put into the pro-
posed volunteer division OF the
Army which would include men OF
any race, color, creed, or nationah-
ty, the NAACP announced this
week
In addition, it was learned that
Frank P. Graham, president OF the
University of North Carolina and
newly appointed to the War Labor
Board, and Mark Ethridge, editor
Of Louisville Courier-Journal, and
chairman of the Committee on Fair
Employment Practice, have enthusi-
astically endorsed the idea.
Gerald Whites request went We'd
nesday, January IA, to President
Roosevelt, Secretary of War Henry
L. Stimson and Secretary OF the
Navy Frank Knox. The request Is
short and to the point. It was made
after White noted stories about the
proposed volunteer division in the
daily papers.
'He said, Tomorrow, January Is,
I am to be indicted into the U. S.
M. G. which, I learned after I had
enlisted, restricts its membership to
members of the white race. This
does not satisfy me as being a
bright, shining example of the de-
mocracy for which we are alleged
ly fighting.
Therefore, in the event such a
volunteer body is created, I should
like to be transferred to that body.
May further say that /, and others
like me, would be more enthusiastic
toward the war effort if there were
no discrimination on account OF
race, creed or color"
Mr.. Ethridge said: ST think your
idea about special volunteer divi-
sion is SWELL
Another Soutnerner who gave his
wholehearted support TO the idea
is Howard Kester, general secretary
of the Fellowship of Southern
Churchmen, with headquarters in
Black Mountain, North Carolina,
the NAACP said.
Mr.. Hester states, "As white
Southerner, I am positive that you
are correct in saying that such a
move would be warmly received by
many Southerners."

He stopped again and placed

eyes looked pleadingly. Bigger was
not satisfied; he felt his muscles
tightening again.
Get up! amt going TO ask you

Slowly, Gus stood. Bigger held
the open blade an inch from Gus
lips
Lick it, Bigger said, his body
tingling with elation.
Gus eyes filled with tears.
Lick it, I said! You think I'm
playing?"
Gus looked around the room
without moving his head, just roll
ing his eyes in a mute appeal for
help. But no one moved. Bigger's
lett list was slowly lifting to strike.
Gus lips moved toward the knife:
he stuck out his tongue and touch
ed the blade. Gus lips quivered and
tears streamed down his cheeks.
Hahahahas!" Doc laughed.
"Aw, leave i'm alone" Jack called
Bigger watched Gus with lips
twisted in crooked smile.
SAY, Bigger, amt you scared i'm
enough?" Doc asked.
