RACES WORK.

At 0PA BOARD.
Civic Groups Watch With

Despite hate strikes and Demon
STATIONS OF whites in protest against
working with Negroes even in this
war period, there are many fine
examples Of democracy function
ing smoothly in places where Ne
groes and whites work side by side
in the city of Detroit.
One Of the most noteworthy ex-
amples of interracial harmony on
the job can be seen at the Central
Mileage Rationing board. at Con-
vention Hall where twenty-si&
colored and thirty-three white
clerks, typists and stenographers
are helping to keep war workers
rolling by processing tire and gaso-
line applications.
Some time ago the manufacturers
hit upon the idea of having the ap-
plications of their war workers pro-
cessed through central board
which would speed the process and
reduce the red tape. The companies
subsidized the central office until
this summer when the Office OF
Price Administration decided to
take il over.
AT first only one colored employe,
Mss Anna Simpson, was in the
office but when the OPA took over
more democratic hiring policy was
adopted. Today Miss Simpson is SUI
perviSor in the Office in charge OF
entry and mailing and twenty-five
other colored girls have been added
to the staff to take care OF the
mounting volume OF applications.
The workers are not segregated
according to race and no friction
between the workers has developed.
On the contrary. the morale of the
workers is reported as very high
and a fine relationship. has resulted
between many Of the workers OF
different races.
The various civic organizations in
the Negro community have follow
ed with great interest the employ
ment policy Of the Office of Price
Administrator and the Central
Mileage board is regarded as an ex-
ample of the kind of worker-rela.
tionship which should be encour-
aged throughout industry.
