Negro Riveters

One day the Baltimore Sun reported
that the Bethlehen,-Sparrows Point Ship
yard, employing 5000 men, was closed
down by dispute because IS Negroes
had enrolled in training class for rivet-
ers. Two days later New York news
papers told how five persons had been
killed and 400 injured in spontaneous
Harlem disorders, which appeared to be
under control after $500 peace officers
had been sent in.
The connection between the two is
indirect The Harlem disorders were not
in protest about the Baltimore incident
They sprang from interference by Negro
soldier, on leave, with the arrest of
woman. But Harlem would not have
begun seething over so minor an affair
if, scarcely beneath the surface, most
Negro communities were not already jt-
terry. Their filters rest upon long his
tory of poverty, overcrowding and eco
nomic discrimination. The situation is
particularly bad now because, all over
the country, Negroes feel that they are
not being permitted to share in war pros
perity, though they are not refused the
privilege of being drafted into uniform.
The Baltimore strike, immobilizing an
important ship-buildinG facility is just
one case in point.
This situation is in no way sectional
Some northerners appear to think that
the south, and only the south, discrim-
mates against Negroes. But refusal to
permit Negroes to do relatively skilled
war work is common north OF Mason
Dixon as we'll as south of it-and, for
whatever bearing the fact may have, it
springs for the most part from workers
and sometimes their unions, rather than
from employers. In the south, where the
social implications of "the Negro prob
LEM are predominant, at least some
plants have found it possible to upgrade
Negroes into skilled jobs by setting aside
facilities where members of the two races
need not work side by side.
This is not an ideal solution, but it is
infinitely preferable to the shutting down
of a whole shipyard merely because Is
Negroes seek to learn how to rivet. That
happened in Baltimore. 1t is preferable
to the banning of Negroes from unions
which have closed shop contracts with
shipyards. That happened in California
and Oregon, which are not in the south.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1943-08-07
Less Noise, Please

We seem to have entered upon an era
of noise. Careless humanity goes about
it's way in no quiet fashion. It is the
trend of the times There is no soft
pedaling on the home front in war time,
it would seem. Or is it just matter of
jaded nerves and an imagined noise.
At any rate the noise is pretty general.
Children who were in normal times given
to moderately exuberant spirits have ar
rived at stage where they test their
lungs to the extreme. Those who drive
to work tear through the streets at a
forbidden rate of speed at all hours OF
the day and night, gears grinding, and
horns blowing as they slow up to pick up
a fellow worker This is especially so
late at night and early in the morning
when workers are evidently off for their
respective factories.
Certain thoreughfares in our city that
have now become more or less major
arteries, but that were formally termed
"residential', are tormented by the noise.
There is no kick coming because car
drivers use these streets as short cuts
out of town; the objection is that they
proceed at such a rate OF speed, posi-
lively prohibitive, and that they blast
their horns for no particular reason. We
might say right here that there should
be law against persistent horn blowers.
So there's the complaint of many who
enjoy bit of quiet. Too much noise on
the home front.

Give Him an Inch

Joseph Curran, far left leader of the
National Maritime Union, has new idea.
He wants the government to take up the
working papers of seamen who have been
suspended by the NMU for what the
union may decide constitutes mis-con-
duct.
Already, by force of strikes, the union
has forced many captains to back water
on their own disciplinary actions. Al
ready, by suspending union member,
Mr. Curran can deprive him of working
rights whenever the NMU has contracts.
Now Curran who was against this war
until Russia was attacked-wants to set
ashore everywhere any seaman whose
conduct offends Mr.. Curran.

Britains Mean Business

1t could happen here, but so far as we
remember it hasn't. The British fined a
world-famous woman member OF Parlia-
nent, Lady Aston, $24O for violation of
rationing regulations. The virginia-born
peerless merely asked friend to bring
her back some clothing when he returned
from the United States by plane.
1t goes without saying that our most
vocal woman member of Congress, Mrs.
Claire Luce, would not knowingly offend
against rationing rules. Oady Astor
didn't understand, either.) But if Mrs.
Luce were, by conceded error, to break a
rule or two, would we fine her 5000 and
costs?

Petroleum Shortage

From time to time somebody mentions
a petroleum shortage - not just bottle
neck in high-octane aviation gasoline
arising from refinery inadequacies, and
not merely a shortage on the eastern sea-
board attributable to transportational diff
ficulties, but an absolute, overall def
cheney in crude petroleum resources. To
the layman this seems perculiar. He
knows that oil wells still are operating
far below capacity, under quota restric-
tons which are rigidly imposed from
Washington. If there is a shortage, why
don't they take the caps off the wells
and let the oil gush forth? The answer,
given by petroleum experts, indicates that
the shortage is an artificial matter which
probably can be remedied quite quickly,
at any time we choose, but which, never
theless, is likely to result in irrecoverable
waste of one of our great natural re-
sources. When war broke out there
were 20 billion barrels of oil Gin sight"
ready for exploitation. Because OF re-
strictions, however, development of new
discoveries to replenish this supply fell
off. In normal times, when this happens
the price of crude oil is showed up bit,
which encourages WildcatterS to 60 out
and find new sources of oil. But the OPA
won't permit that traditional approach
So first year discoveries have fallen off
alarmingly.
AS result, we seem to be approaching
a point where the United States may not
be able to supply all demands made up
on us by the United Nations without
waste. That is, we may be forced to
open up all our wells, old and new, and
speed their production. This shoots out
put up and provides oil Immediately. But
In the long run each well gives less oil
than if the flow we're kept under scientific
control.
SO the petroleum shortage comes down
to this: There is plenty of oil now. We
can get plenty of oil for the probable dur
alton of the war, out of currently available
sources. New resources can be discovered
whenever incentive is provided for those
who gamble in validating. But unless
that Incentive is made available soon, in
all probability we shall be driven to
wasteful use of our wells which, in the
end, will hasten exhaustion of the
nations petroleum reserve.

BY THE LIGHT OF THE MOON
New York Herald-Tribune)

1t would be interesting to know
just how many Victory gardeners
planted their rows in accordance
with an old theory mentioned in
Sir James Frazer's Golden Bough".
Says that voluminous and delight
full work: THE principle generally
followed is that whatever Is done to
increase anything should be done
while the moon is waxing; whatever
is done to diminish anything should
be done while the moon is waning"
Here Is simple law easily followed.
Who knows if 1t be only moonshine?
Anyway, hard-headed farmers who
never read the Golden Bough,"
have been following the moon me-
thod Of planting for years, with a
further extension of the principle
SO that whatever ripens below the
ground-potatoes and other root
crops-is planted when the moon
Is waning; while above-the-ground
vegetables, like peas, beans, and
corn, are tsarted of in their leafy
career when the moon is waxing.
Now that so many gardens are in
full swing Of sun, moon and hoe
handles, 1t might be well to gather
reports from moon gardeners" Let

The time draws near for country fairs.
There will be less of them this summer
and fall, we expect. The Goshen Comm
fair is one Of the first around this section
but we do not recall reading anything
concerning it's annual showing. We note
that the Brockton (Mass) fair that has
missed just one in the last sixty-eight
wears, will not be featured this Septem-
Der due to manpower shortage and trans
portation. The Brockton Fairs last miss
was during the influenza epidemic OF
1918. Fairs are happy, healthy recrea-

that here in this country Of ours
