Racial Gains Will

CothoIic Leader Speoks
At Celebration of
Howard U. Anniversary

Some of the economic gains Of the
Negro during this war may be lost
later, but the greater. part will re-
main. Msgr. John A. Ryan, director
of the National Catholic Welfare
Conference. declared today during
the observance OF charter day and
the 9th anniversary Of the founding
OF Howard University in its chapel.
During the ceremonies three grad
yates of the university received
alumni awards for achievements in
the fields of medicine, literature and
public service. These were 1t. Col
Campbell c. johnson, executive as
sistant to the director of selective
service: Fora Neale Hurston, author.
and DR.. Orville L. Ballard, medical
authority on tuberculosis among
Negroes.
The welfare director. in discuss
ing the Negro problem in this coun-
try, declared that the war has
broadened the field Of Negro employ
ment.
Deny Common Rights.
Msgr. Ryan declared the most i'm
portant and fundamental ratio of
determinations were in the eco
nomic field. They are the most i'm
portant because they hinder his
progress in every other province of
his life, religious. educational, social
and cultural. They are the most
fundamental because they deny to
the Negro a primary moral right,
which inheres in all Gods children,
namely, the right Of access on rea-
sonable terms to Gods common
bounty, the goods and opportunities
of the earth.
I'm the existing form of industrial
society," the wage Garner can enjoy
this right only through a reason
able wage contract. If the Negro
laborer is prevented from making
any contract at all for employment
in a considerable number and va
riety of occupations. this funda-
mental right is flagrantly violated.
Happily, the American Negro to-
day Is making considerable progress
in this field. through the Fair EN-
ployment Practice Committee, set
up by President Roosevelt to pre-
vent discrimination in the war in
dustries," he added.

Insists All Agencies

Under Job Measure

Senator Mcclellan, Democrat, Of
Tennessee served notice today he
viii fight move to exempt Ten
nessee Valley Authority officials
from provisions Of his bill to require
Senate confirmation OF Federal en-
ployes with salaries of more than
$4,500 annually.
Senator Hatch, Democrat, of New
Mexico introduced an amendment
yesterday which would prevent the
McKeuar bill from affecting IVA,
which has 388 employees receiving
more than $4,000.
When Senator McKellar was asked
today whether he will oppose the
amendment he exclaimed:
III fight it till the last day. Why
should we accept that? Can you
tell me any reason why we should
accept exemption of one Govern
ment agency and not another?"
Senator Hill. Democrat, of Ala
bama, in a letter made public yes
terday, maintained that IVA is not
like other Government agencies and
that Congress, in creating IVA,
specifically directed the iva di-
rectors to choose personnel solely
on the basis of merit and efficiency.
without regard to political qualifica-
tions.
Senator Hill urged exemption OF
IVA from the McKellar bill, which
he said would destroy Twas merit
system and hamper its operations
His letter was addressed to Chair
man Van Nuys Of the Senate judi
ciary Committee.
OMahoney Substitute Ready.
Senator O'Mahoney, Democrat. Of
Wyoming, meanwhile, made public
the draft Of substitute he will offer
IN the Judiciary Committee today
In place Of the McKellar bill.
The new OMahoney proposal cuts
out the salary yard-stick entirely,
and seeks to require instead con-
firmation Of all those officials who
formulate Government policies, re-
gardless of salary. This, he contends.
will avoid having the Senate pass on
hundreds Of civil service employees
who have nothing to do with policy,
but whose technical skill places them
at or above the $4,500 salary level.
It also would exclude from con-
firmation persons who entered the
civil service and acquired CLASH
Ned status through competitive ex-
aminations.
Senator OMahoney's new defini-
ton OF policymaking jobs would
make the following groups subject to
confirmation:
"(a) The heads, assistant heads
and head attorneys Of the several
departments and agencies OF the
Government dncluding members Of
the boards of directors and ofIlcers
OF Government-owned corporations)

Thursday regardless of the commit
