NAACP Doubts
FDR's Plan on
Will Work

Washington, D. C.-Doubt as to
the value of a meeting such as pro-
posed this week by President
Roosevelt in his request that War
Manpower Commissioner Paul V.
McNutt call a conference of lead
ers of groups opposing employ
ment discrimination was expressed
this week by the National Associa-
ton for the Advancement of Col
ored People.
The N. A. A. C. P. indicated its
approval of President Roosevelt's
wish that the Fair Employment
Practice Committee have more
power and larger personnel but in
a telegram to the White House
said:
at is not clear, however, why a
conference of organizations, such
as you propose Mr.. McNutt should
call, is necessary to accomplish
these ends. The NAACP and other
organizations have already stated
their position to you. The war is
not waiting for conferences. Work
ers are needed in industry now. The
NAACP therefore urges you as
president to give the Fair Employ
ment Practice Committee without
further delay such powers and per-
sonnet as are necessary for the &C
complishment of its vital task. The
minimum program which would
make the committee effective is
first, immediate re-scheduling of
railroad hearings; second, estab-
lishment of committee in indepen-
dent office Of president and its re-
moval from War Manpower Com
mission or any other subsidiary
governmental body; third, sane
tions for committee in form of pub
lie hearings; power to impose
money and other penalties and all
additional authority necessary to
accomplish the gargantuan task of
eliminating discrimination in gov
eminent and war industries; fourth,
selection of a committee strong
enough to resist anti-Negro, anti
Semitic, sectional or other political
pressures; fifth, adequate staff and
budget for committee"

Communists
to Hold Lincoln
Douglass Rally

According to its sponsors a Lin
coln-Douglass rally Of the Young
Communist League on Sunday,
Feb. IA, will be a demonstration
for the complete defeat of the Axis
and for the full Indignation of the
Negro people in the war effort. It
will also protest the position of
Major Gen. J. A. Uio, Adjutant
General who has stated that the
intermingling of Negro and white
soldiers is obstructive to morale
and detrimental to the war effort. I"
The above statement Of the Ad-
jutant General was contained in a
letter to Harold Schachter, State
Secretary of the Young Communist
League, in a War Department &C
acknowledgement of petitions demand
ing the immediate creation of a
mixed regiment of Negro and white
soldiers. These petitions contained
the names of over 300 Negro and
white residents of the Twin Cities
and were circulated by the Young
Communist League.
In releasing the above informa-
ton Mr.. Schachter stated that,
"every experience has proven con-
clusively that the Negro people are
loyalty supporting the war effort
in full understanding that Hit
Ter victory will destroy any hopes
of moving toward complete free
dom. Together with millions of
white citizens they are only against
those policies which are obstacles
to victory. Such an obstacle is our
national shame-discrimination and
jim-crowism. The heroic deeds of
Dorie Miller and Charles French
are an inspiration to all liberty low
ing Negro and white Americans
The creation of a mixed regiment
would be greeted as a contribution
to national unity and to the unity
of the United Nations. It would
not be detrimental to the war effort
on the contrary, it would helI
greatly"
The rally on Feb. IA will feature
as speakers the Rev. Robert W
Kelly of the Border Methodist
Church, Sam Swanson, labor organ
izer and Mr.. Schachter. Newest
Office of War Information movie:
will be shown. One film is "Henry
Brown, a story of a Negro people
in the war effort" and another film

Tracy.

Ford Motor Wages Hit by HawIey
Persons who heard the broadcast
also say Hawley boosted that he
paid his welders more than the
Ford Motor Co. which remarks
could be construed as an attack on
a rival concern.
Radio Head Refused to Give Press
Statement
Stanley Hubbard, president of
KSTP, was sorry the thing hap
pened but would not give the press
statement on the Hawley 'fboner."
Gives Apology On Air
He did finally consent to have a
station official broadcast Wednes-
day night the following statement:
During a war bond rally last
Thursday one of the speakers used
the term n-rs. KSTP has al
ways refrained from using the
word "n-grs as being Of
fensive to a group of its citizens.
The management sincerely regrets
this incident"
o. W. /. Disguised
The local Office of War IRforma-
ton knew about HawIey's remarks
before local Negro leaders called
them. Officials appeared disguised
that such remarks should have been
made by a war plant operator and
of all places at a patriotic war
bond rally.
o. w. /. spends considerable
money and brains trying to build
up the morale of the Negro popu-
latiOn and such incidents destroy
the hard work the o. w. /. at
tempts.
Hawley's Record On Negro Bad
The Northern Pump Co. with an
approximate payroll of 1900 work
ers has only three Negroes en-
ployed in the entire plant. Local
Negroes have been resentful of the
evident discrimination at this
plant.
Thursday nights incident only
heightened this resentment against
a man whose firm, built by tax
payers money for war efforts, has
almost completely failed as a war
plant operator to give Negroes an
opportunity to work at the plant
in violation of his contract and
presidential order $500.
Nelson Calls Remarks Great
Disservice
Rev. C. T. R. Nelson, pastor of
Camphor Methodist Church and
president of the St. Paul Branch of
the N. A. A. C. P, said:
"Mr. Hawley as president of a
large war production plant has
done a great disservice to the
morale of many people in using a
term which is resented by many
American citizens, white as well as
Negro. Mr.. Hawley's use of the
term during February, the month
of Lincoln, and when so many race
relations and brotherhood pro-
grams are being held is most I'M
timely"
