Labor Groups to
Seek Permanent
F.E.P.C Committee
(From N. Y. Times)

Oct. %. - Representatives
of 100 trade unions met yes
terday afternoon in Freedom
House, 80 East Fifty-first ST.,
and advocated permanence for
the President Fair Employ
ment Practice Committee and legis-
lation to make any discrimination
on account of race or creed illegal.
Such bill will be introduced soon
in Congress, it was announced.
The labor conference voted to
raise fund of $4,000 to promote
this aim and elected a committee
to cooperate with an organization
working for permanent FEPC.
Samuel Wolchok, president Of
the United Retail, Wholesale and
Department Store Employees of the
Congress of Industrial Organiza-
tons, was elected chairman Of the
committee, with David Dubinsky,
president of the International La
dies Garment Workers Union Of
the American Federation of Labor,
as treasurer and A. Philip Ram
dolph, president of the Brotherhood
Of Sleeping Car Porters, AFL, as
secretary. Mr.. Dubinsky an
nounced a contribution of $1,000 to
the $4,000 fund, while Mr.. VOL
chok pledged $1,000 and Mr.. Ran
dolph, $500. Other union represen-
tatives announced that their organ
izations also would contribute.
Postwar Instrument
Mr.. Dubinsky, Mr.. Randolph and
other speakers said a permanent
FEPC was needed as an instru-
ment of postwar reconstruction
and for fulfillment of American
ideals of democracy in social, politi-
cal and economic life. Support
ing the proposal were Rabbi Sidney
E. Goldstein and Laurence Hosie,
head Of the Presbyterian Labor
Temple and chairman of the Work
ers' Defense League.
The union representatives sent
to President Roosevelt a telegram
asking that he free Sgt. Alton
Levy and restore him to his rank
lin the interests Of true American
ism and in further vindication of
the principles for which we are to-
day engaged in crucial struggle"
Levy, who was attached to q
training group at the Army Air
Base at Lincoln, Neb., was charged
with violation Of the Ninety-sixth
Article of War. He was convicted
by a court-martial on Aug. 16 and
sentenced to four months confne-
ment, fined $1s a month in pay and
reduced to private. Before in
duction into the Army he was an
organizer for the IGWU.
Charges in Telegram
The telegram charged that Levy
had been convicted because of his
pronounced opposition to illegal
discrimination against Negroes in
the Army" and because of his for
mer record as a labor organizer.
"The Levy case certainly smells
bad and we have a right to suspect
that way was found to convict
the man." Mr.. Dubinsky said.
The conference also dedicated
itself to fighting the case of Win,
fred Lynn of Jamaica, Queens, who
was indicted into the Army under
the Selective Service Act in what
he contended was violation of his
rights under the act, which for
bids racial discrimination. Lynn,
who has had a habeas corpus &C
ton brought in his behalf, charged
that he was selected with a group
of Negro draftees in a segregated
Jim Grow" quota.

Common Courtesy
How About
It, Boys?
Bv GRACE MARTIN

Are YOU one of those men who
have a lot to say about women in
business? If so, you might be in
terested in the comments of the
other sex. For instance:
Do you chew gum at your desk
with rhythmic chawing motion
that recalls the bovine mastica-
tons seen on dairy farms?
Are you one of the boys who
can't conduct even a small con-
ference without lot of noisy talk
that makes all the listeners Won
der who started the legend that
women are chatter-boXes?
Do you belong to the convention
hat meets in the middle of every
morning and afternoon to guffaW
over bawdy jokes?
Are you, by chance, one of the
boys who follow every skirt that
passes with your eye, making
CONNECTS about ankles?
Are you among the men who
declare IF a woman insists or
going into business, she should be
treated just like a mainland then
insist on recalling her sex with
every word and glance?

Delinquency Is Linked With Lack
Of Able Teachers, SAYS Millett

girls is to learn to get along with
each other-to learr to work and
play together. maintaining respect
for each other as individuals.
1t would seem that rather than
being made more conscious of
their sex, as segregation would
tend to do, they need to be made
less conscious of it.
ManpOwer Shortage
But the judge is undoubtedly
right in maintaining that boys need
men teachers. But, then, so do
girls. And both boys and girls
need women teachers.
However, the number of men
teaching in grade schools and high
schools is pitifully small. The ma
jority of men who like teaching
set into college and university
work as soon as they have the
necessary degrees, because the
pay is better.
And that condition will exist sc
long as teachers, as a group, are
so poorly paid.
But that is still another prob
lem. However, it is one we had
better get to work on, because
the shortage of qualified teachers
willing to stay in the teaching
profession is becoming alarming.

Sometimes you see woman who
would be beauty if it weren't
for the shape of her mouth. Maybe
it has pinched look. Possibly it
is much too large. Or again, it
may have no shape at all.
There have been times when this
could have ruined the career of a
stage or motion picture aspirant,
if they hadn't been taken in hand
by a makeup expert who Sliced"
off bit of mouth or added" a
bit to it.
Dolores Moran, beautiful blonde
Hollywood newcomer, told me of
a few tricks her studio makeup
man showed her which she thinks
may be helpful to you.
If, for instance, your lips are
too thin, you can make them look
fuller and more appealing by ap-
plying your lipstick just a little
outside the true contour.
Or, should your mouth be bit
too full, then powder it well and

Sought To Aid
Housing Boom

ions of a postwar housing boom
come true it is likely there will be
a battle over local building regu-
lations.
At present, 1000 municipalities
have codes about it. Some of these
codes have interfered with the
progress of pre-fabricated hous-
ing. Others have demanded over
costly plumbing for low-cost
houses.
After the war there will be
thousands of demountable houses
tc be sold and distributed about
the country. Local building codes
may hinder their erection.
The National Bureau of Stand
ards has been making studies and
tests on low cost housing. It's
findings have been applied to gov
eminent housing projects. Bath
room expenses has been cut down,
fireproofing has been improved.
After the bureau has worked out a
complete set of standards 1t may
form the basis for new, uniform
code.
