SHERIFF CALLAHAN
SEEKS CIVIC AID

Sheriff Harlan S. Callahan this
week completed a seven-month
countrywide sepaking campaign
in which he appealed to hundreds
of church, club and civic groups
for cooperation in a three-point
program for juvenile crime pre-
vention:
l. Deeper interest by parents
in the activities and associations
of their children. More careful
parental supervision. "Some par
ents," Callahan said, scarcely
know their young sons and
daughters"
2. Extension of the bfg-brother
movement by service clubs and
churches.
8. Creation ON more supervis-
ed playfields.
Outbreaks of juvenile gang
warfare in the county and scores
of crimes and misdemeanors by
youths 8 to 16 years of age, the
Sheriff said, evidence the need
for an extensive preventive pro-
gram.
Providing children with means
of wholesome outdoor play in
daytime, and seeing that they
use their nights for sleep, he
said, will reduce property loss,
keep the jails from filling with
boys and girls, and insure a gem
GRAFTON of good instead of bad
Americans.
Lions Clubs and some other
mems service organizations are
performing a truly beneficial
work in big-brotherhood," Gala
han declared. More such clubs
and churches should take up this
worthwhile service"

Million Men Rejected by
Army For Illiteracy

Washington, Aug. 1S.-Almost
100000 men have been rejected
because of illiteracy, according
to a report made recently by a
Senate Education and Labor sub
committee.
Citing figures of the Army In
duction Board, the report of the
Senate group stated that 20 out
of every 1000 men called up for
induction were rejected because
they had not attained a fourth
grade education. Otherwise they
were qualified for military SER
vice.
The rate of rejection per 900
men ran from zero in Wyoming
to 1862 in Georgia. The rate for
Whites ran as high as 107.11 in
Tennessee, and for Negroes as
high as 256.29 in Georgia.

In Washington, d. C. Negroes

which, in the stern face of a gov
eminent order issued at the close
of 1912, stands obdurate in it's
refusal to solicit the employ of
Negro bus and street car opera
tors along these industrial war
vital lines. Meanwhile, Gin a SER
les of open hearings guided by
the four remaining members of
the committee,) FEPC plans to
present the staunch record of re-
fusal to hire Negroes by Capital
Transit.
At the same time, treading on
grounds heretofore untouched by
Negro men and women, are num-
bers of motormen, conductors.
bus and street car operators and
mechanical workers now employ
ed by war-plants and transporta-
ton lines all over the country. In
Cleveland, Negro women stepped
quietly into the jobs of motormen
and conductors in the Cleveland
Transit system during the latter
part of March.
In Los Angeles, the California
Shipbuilding Corporation increas-
ed its number of Negro employees
from a mere 400 to a total of
1892. At Douglass Aircraft, fig

$1S 5OO.OO0.OO0 total OF nonbank
subscriptions.
The Importance of increasing
the proportion of individual pur-
chases in the September loan
drive lies in the fact that institu-
tional buying of Bonds does not
have the same anti-inflationary
effect as purchases by individuals
out of current funds that might
otherwise be spent and thus in
crease pressure on prices.
The foregoing figures do not
accurately present the individu-
ais share in helping to meet the
governments financial needs, for
they do not make allowance for
the approximately $1,O00,0O0, 900
a month that individuals are in
vesting in savings bonds through
payroll deductions and regular
purchases.
However, there is an immense
amount of excess individual in
come that can be invested In
War Bonds without undue sacri-
fee, and the reasons why this
money should be so invested are
In the first place.
Uncle Sam needs the money to
carry on to victory. That is rea-
son enough why every individual
should buy Bonds to his capacity.
In addition, and as a matter of
vital self-interest, the putting OF
individual surplus purchasing
power in War Bonds is the best
defense against the danger of a
initiation.

DISCRIMINATION

SACRAMENTO. - The Inter
nation Woodworkers of America
in convention here went on rec
ord August 10 as condemning ra-
cial discrimination and the Smith
Connally Act outlawing strikes
in war industries.
A resolution adopted by the
convention on racial discrimina-
ton declared:
Millions of men and women
all over the world fight against
Hitler an his ideas of race su-
perior to all other races.
Discrimination Knocked
In America We have men with
Hitler's idea toward the Negro
and we cannot accept this and
Iemain true believer In democ-
racy. If we are going to prove 10
our Allies that we are really and
truthfully lighting for a true
democracy, discrimination in any
form must be stopped"
The Smith-Connally Act was
branded in another resolution as
vicious and anti-labor and not
accomplishing its purpose, the
stopping of strikes, for which 1t
originally was intended"
A resolution asking for the
opening of an immediate second
front in Europe was voted down
when Claude Ballard, Portland
Or, delegate, argued the armed
forces "are led by exceptionally
competent men and we are not in
possession of the strategic infor-
nation to know whether a sec
ond front ia advisable Or not"
The convention also asked that
social security payments start at
55 pears of age instead of the
present IS.
