Northern Pump
Claims 1t Will
Hire Negroes

w. NJ. Cordner, assistant to John
Hawley of Northern Pump Co.,
told Harry Gibson of Chicago, ex-
aminer for the Presidents Commit
tee of Fair Employment Practices,
here Wednesday that his firm will
Immediately begin to hire Negroes
for semi-skilled jobs.
Mr.. Gibson came to Minneapolis
this week from Chicago where a
complaint had been lodged against
Northern Pump by local citizens.
This firm has consistently refused
to employ Negroes.
In 1941, after C. W. Washington
of the Minneapolis Urban League
had protested the Northern Pump
practices to Washington, three Ne
groes were employed in unskilled
mental jobs. Three months ago
Cecil Adair, who had been en-
ployed there for a year, was dis
charged when he requested upgrad-
ing.
Hawley is a Texan and has
earned huge profits on the gun
mount which he manufactures for
the Navy. He startled this area
several months ago when he re-
ferred to French Senegalese troops
as over the radio.
1t is understood that the Urban
League office in Minneapolis will
refer the applicants to the plant. A
previous promise to employ Ne
groes by Cordner to a committee
from the Minneapolis Urban
League was not kept.
Mr.. Washington asked this news
paper to announce that he will be
glad to job applicants to Northern
Pump. The Minneapolis Urban
League is located at 240 South
Fourth st.

Owens Elected
Social Workers
Region Chairman

s. Vincent wens, Executive
Secretary of the st. Paul Urban
League, was elected chairman Of
Region 10 of the State Conference
of Social Workers at the annual
regional business meeting held
Tuesday evening, Nov. 16, at the
Volunteers of America Bldg. There
are about 400 under Mr.. Owens
supervision.
The speaker at the meeting, Fri
Hubert of the Chicago Office of the
Federal Housing Administration,
told the social workers there is an
excellent opportunity here in the
upper middle west to demonstrate
to the rest Of the country an eff
fective program of race relation
ships; that citizens must declare
where they stand, either against
discrimination or for it, and must
do something about it.
He said citizens must also take
steps to counteract statements
holding Negroes or any other mi
nority group up to ridicule. "The
Negro of today is not the type re-
leased from slavery but intelligent
and capable of holding jobs tn a t
any other citizens can hold"
Mr.. Hubert said that in all Fed
eral Housing Projects throughout
the country Negroes are the best
tenants. They pay more promptly,
keep their lawns in better condi-
ton and very often do interior dec
Grating at their own expense in or
der to keep their homes up to a
certain standard. He praised Ne
groes living in Sumner Field,
Minneapolis, for taking the initia-
tive in organizing a cooperative
store. They lead the field nation
ally in such an interracial project
in Federal Housing homes.
The Housing executive further
stated that American citizens just
don't think but with the Jewish
pogroms in Boston, the gang fights
in Chicago and riots in Detroit,
something must be done in a much
less haphazard manner than hereto
fore. He said the Negro problem
is no longer national but one of
international significance tied up
with problems of other darker
races.
He stated, 'If the courage of our
convictions is strong enough to
die for on the battlefront, we
should have the courage to fight for
them at home"

Chest Job

Among the many teams that did

Woman Stricken
Discovered After
48 Hours Alone

Mabel Craft, 1851 Bryant Ave.
N, Minneapolis, is showing much
improvement in the Minneapolis
General Hospital where she was
taken Sunday night after being
found in her apartment suffering
from a stroke,
Mrs. Craft had been to the gro
Gerry store in the basement of the
apartment building shortly before
Z p. m. Saturday. She had not been
seen again until Sunday night be-
tween 9 and 10 o'clock when a
leighbor, Mrs. Irene Harvey, be-
anne alarmed. After receiving no
response from within and unable
o get in she called a maintenance
nan to open the door. Mrs. Har-
,ey had noticed that the Crafts
Sunday paper had not been taken
n and had been told by a neigh
Dor across the street that the
lights in the Craft apartment had
burned all night Saturday. They
we're still on at that time.
When the door was opened Mrs.
Harvey and Mrs. Blanche Mason
entered the apartment and found
Mrs. Craft in the bath tub where
she had apparently fallen after be-
ing stricken. There were signs of
her having been nauseated and
leading to the belief that in her
weakened condition she had sat on
the side of the tub, sliding into it
after the stroke seized her.
Though she had been unable to
talk since she was found, Mrs.
Craft laughed aloud Wednesday
during a visit from her husband,
Monwell, who arrived in the city
Tuesday night after being notified
of his wife's illness which occurred
while he, a railroad employee, was
out of the city.
Mrs. Elizabeth Robinson and
Mrs. Hattie McLinn of Parsons,
Kans., sisters of Mrs. Craft, have
arrived in Minneapolis and they
and Mr.. Craft are very hopeful
of complete recovery.

It was a case of too much Nc
Moore, who scored two of the win
ner's touchdowns and threw a 81
yard pass into the waiting arms of
Rem Nord, his running mate, who
was standing in the end zone in the
last second Of the game.
Outplayed completely by the st.
Paul team in the first half the Mill
City champions came to life in the
early part of the third period, when
McMoore faxed beautifully to Rem
Nord and cut through the middle
of the Pilots line to race 81 yards
for touchdown without a hand be-
ing laid on him. Murray came back
and scored on a beautiful 33-yard
pass from Ray Christesen to Dick
Marscha.. Taking the ensuing
kickoff the Tigers scored their sec
ond touchdown in the last five sec
onds of the third period when Nc
Moore took Wigdahls pass and
travelled 48 yards down the side
lines to pay dirt, getting help on
Ron Larges' vicious block, which
injured Paul Kauff, Murray's CEN
ter.
Richard Howell, right-end for
the Minneapolis team, who was the
second Negro player on the field,
played a good game both defensive
Iy and Extensively.
Several of the press box OBJ
servers rate McMoore one Of the
best backs ever turned out in the
Mill City. His passing and open
field running leaves little to be de-
sired, they point out. McMoore is
the Northwest Golden Gloves mid
dleweight champion and last year
went to the semi-fnals in the Chi
cago championships. He also is the
Minneapolis high school 220 hurdle
champ, and an outstanding basket
ball star. McMoore made 62 yards
in 10 tries at rushing.
