with 127,184 colored workers
holding jobs in various units.
Thousands of additional Negroes
were included in the 74,406 en-
ployees hired between March and
May 1, 1913, and more have been
employed in recent months.
These Negro workers, including
approximately 10000 in the Ord
nance Departme nt's plants
throughout the country, are max
ing direct contribution to the war
effort, Mr.. Amacker pointed out,
since the Army Service Forces
feeds, fuels, clothes, houses and
equips the Army. 1t devises and
produces many of the weapons of
war. 1t transports the Army and
its supplies all over the globe and
operates its communications. It
builds the camps, environments,
munitions factories, bases, roads
and military installations and
maintains and repairs all camp
utilities.
In addition, the Army Service
Forces manufactures the gases for
chemical warfare, pays the Army,
provides for it's medical needs,
supervises the religious observ-
ances, carries the mail, keeps books
and maintains records, furnishes
recreations and performs the other
innumerable tasks designed to
make the U. S. Army the best
equipped and serviced in the world.
About 95 per cent of all civilian
employees of the Army Service
Forces are located outside metro
politan Washington. These work
ers are employed at more than
5000 different stations throughout
the continental United States and
abroad. But in Washington, large
headquarters force keeps and re-
cords, issues the orders, and makes
the plans which keep the organ
ization functioning. A large part
of the Pentagon Building is given
over as headquarters for the Army
Service Forces. Here 1900 Negroes
are employed in the Publication
Section, where orders are mimeo-
graphed, charts and records of all
kinds are manufactured. Here also
is located the Army Post Office
from which mail may be forwarded
to any man in the Army. This of
flee also has a large Negro staff in
it's civilian personnel.
Negro girls also form a large
part of the clerical staff-as typ
lists, stenographers, file clerks and
card punch machine operators.
Their welfare is directed by Mrs.
Captolia Dent Newbern, former
community worker in the Exten-
sion Service of Talladega College.
A graduate Of Talladega and the
New York School of Social Work,
Mrs. Newbern has been an assist
ant employee relations counsellor
for the War Department since Oc-
tober, 1912.
Personnel records indicate that
Negro manpower has been utilized
to greater extent by the Army
Service Forces than in many other
branches of the government and
war industries. AS of March /,
1913, Negroes comprised 1877 per
cent of all civilian employees in
Army Service Forces, with 28,56S
in ordnance plants alone. The larg-

week and Head Coach Porter and
Assistant Coach Melvin Goss are
rather optimistic as they had over

The Juniors also started their

the city and they are expected to
give a good account of themselves
this year. Fellows in uniform were
Donald Wilson, Melvin Goss, Milton
Combs, Eugene White, Ted McDade
and several others from last years

Jack-Hi White is one of the most
promising newcomers on the Midget
team-he is fast and shifty and
gives tacklers a lot of trouble.
The new lounge will soon be open
for the teen age group and it is
creating a lot of interest and per-

The home canning drive is on,
and IL is a major war activity.
We have an army Of some 25
million home Gamers serviced
by 20 million Victory Gardens.
But a hidden danger lies in
home canning unless done under
scientific conditions The en-
envy is the bacillus botulinus, a
spore with a Pearl Harbor mind.
This bacillus is present in the
soil and is transferred from the
soil 10 food products. 1t germi-
mates only in the absence Of air,
therefore the airless interior of
a sealed can or glass jar is the
ideal condition for IFS growth
and production of toxins IN the
food
However. the spores can be
destroyed by sustained high
temperature. Housewives who
can use steam pressure cookers
can can with safety.
MOST CASES FATAL
DR.. X. F Meyer, Hooper
Foundation, University of Cal
ifornia. noted in the field, re-
ports that from 1899 TO 1912
there we're 367 cases of botulism
in the United States The fatal
ity rate, according TO his fig
ures, was 65 per cent.
There were IS outbreaks from
home canned food in 194l and
1912, resulting in 26 deaths, ac-
c1rding 10 the Journal of the
American Medical Association.
II warns that the increased incl
dence Of botluiSm must be re-
garded as an active possibility
with increased home canning in
1943.
DR.. Fred w. Tanner, Depart
ment of Bacteriology, Unlver-
sity of Illinois, a recognized au-
thority, insists that the recur-
ring outbreaks of botulism caus-
ed by home canning products
calls for more general use by
housewives of the results OF BAG
THEOLOGICAL research. CONNER
cial Gamers faced this situation
squarely, he adds, ard spent
hundreds of thousands Of dollars
to learn the proper methods OF
processing.
He concludes that home eco
nomists, extension workers and
others responsible for teaching
home makers how to can this
years Victory Garden crops
should insist, without compro'
mise, that there is only one safe
method for canning non acic
foods-the steam pressure meth
cd.
Although the T. S Depart
ment Of Agriculture says tina
for such acid foods as fruits ant
tomatoes, rhubarb and picked
beets, the boiling water batl
method Of canning is safe,
