People More Concerned Over

it is reliably reported, were so bit
ter in their opposition to a housing
project for Negroes that they even
went to Federal housing officials.

that his agency had no authority

Negro & Jewish
Prisoners Not Used
on NaI Farms

NcBTOeS OF American and
other nationalities are among
the prisoners incarcerated in
Germany and Japan. There
were approximately 5000
American prisoners alone in
Germany in June. 1t is estimated
that thousands of colonial Negroes
captured in North Africa and
France are also behind barbed
wires there.
Prisoners are divided into three
groups: civilians, informed when we
engaged in hOstilities; fiers,
brought down over enemy terri
tory, and the infantrymen captured
in Tunisia.
Negroes are housed indiscrimi-
nately with other prisoners in Ger
many, it was learned from DR..
Tracy Strong, world director of
War Prisoners Aid, Y. M. C. A., one
Of the participating services in
cluded in the overall National War
Fund, which begins its nationwide
drive for funds in October.
There is at least one method of
treatment accorded Negro and Jew
lsh prisoners in Germany that diff
fers from that of white prisoners
it was learned; that is: they are
not farmed out for agricultural
work, as are white infantry prison.
ers, but are housed in the prison
camps at all times.
This is done apparently to keep
them from mixing with the Aryan
population, which Hitler holds out
as the master race. Prisoners who
work on farms are frequently
housed on the farms where they
work.
Under terms of the Geneva Con-
ference, fiiers and internes (civilian
prisoners) are not permitted to
work on the land.
Prison camps are already well
organized, according to interna-
tional regulations, with Red Cross
parcels, clothing and supplies from
the Y. NJ. c. A. already filtering in
regularly through neutral channels.
DR.. Benjamin Mays, president of
Morehouse College, is a member of
the board of directors of the War
Prisoners Aid, Y. NJ. C. A. This
agency is one of the participating
services in the National War Fund.
1t conducts recreational, educa-
tional and religious activities for
the men behind the barbed wire,
who, although comparatively COM
Portable, live bleak and barren lives
at best.
The War Prisoners Aid cooper
ates with the Red Cross, which sup
plies material relief, information to
families and works for the improve
ment of prison camp life. The ser
vice is extended to prisoners with
out regard to color or race. OBJ
servers from neutral countries
make regular visits to the Axis
camps, talking with prisoners and
commandments, looking into their
needs and treatment.
Wherever possible the War Pris-
oners Aid provides the prisoners
with games played in their home
lands, handicraft equipment, hobby
material, books, music and musical
instruments, and other things.

Baltimore's 2O% Negro Group
Restricted to 20 of Housing

Washington, D. CA dele
cation led by the Baltimore
branches of the NAACP and
the Urban League held con-
ferences this week with Jona-
than Daniels, Administrative
Assistant to the President and
Herbert Emmerich, Commissioner
of the Federal Public Housing Au-
thority, to protest the failure of
the Federal government to erect a
housing project for Negro workers
who have migrated to the city to
work in vital war industries.
The group told Daniels that Ne
gro war workers have moved into
Baltimore at the rate of 1000 a
month for the past year. It was
pointed out that while Negroes
constitute 20 per cent of the city's
population, they are crowded into
less than Z per cent Of it's living
space.
"The Federal government" the
delegation declared, "has the mani
fest duty, and power, to erect the
necessary war housing to relieve a
situation which seriously threatens
the health, welfare and morale of
the community, notwithstanding
opposition to the project by certain
local financial and political inter
ests that are anti-Negro."
The National Housing Agency
had approved a 1000 unit housing
program for Negro occupancy last
February. Opposition by anti
Negro forces had frustrated all eff
forts to select a suitable site. In
July a delegation representing 80
Negro and white church, civic and
labor organizations met with John
B. Blandford, Administrator of the
National Housing Agency, and
Commissioner Emmerich. At that
time the officials had announced
their determination to construct a
project, for permanent housing on
a site known as Herring Run. The
Baltimore City Council opposed the

Mr.. Newman GAS a Friend"
The guests were thrilled with the
commendatory remarks of these
outstanding citizens in their vari-
GUS topics on the life of this news
paper man, citizen, leader, and
friend.
Mr.. Horn Speaks
Charles L. Horn, President of the
Federal Cartridge Corporation,
Twin Cities Ordnance Plant, in his
unique way stated briefly how much
Mr.. Newman had meant to the Ne
groes in particular in their fight for
equal opportunities. He made a
sympathetic plea to the Negroes
to exert more far-seeing outlook
in upholding and supporting their
leaders. Mr.. Horn cited the many
years of continuous friendship that
had existed between him and Mr..
Newman, and paid a fitting tribute
to the uncompromising stand he
had consistently taken as a news
paper man and citizen.

Wife Present
Clarence M. Mitchell, Jr., and

Mitchell as the principal speaker
for the Testimonial. Mr.. Mitchell
related his admiration and respect
for Mr.. Newman and cited the
many problems he had met in his
constructive criticisms of many Of
the organizations who had failed
in the specific job assigned to them.
Mr.. Mitchell expressed his deep re-
spect for Mr.. Newman's sterling
qualities of being unable to be pur-
chased irrespective of circum-
stance. He further cited how much
courage it must have taken to have
established the Minneapolis Spokes-
man and the st. Paul Recorder, in
these cold, isolated and sparsely
settled communities of the Twin
Cities. He said, however, he real
lied that it was Mr.. Newman's
vision to serve not only the Negroes
