CHICAGO, Oct. l2.-MrS. Frank
lin D. Roosevelt asserted yesterday
in an article written for the October
issue Of Negro Digest that:
If ] were a Negro today, I think
l would have moments of great bit
tclncSs. 1t would be hard for me
to sustain my faith in democracy
and to build up a sense Of good will
toward men of other races.
Il think, however, that I would
realize that if my ancestors had
never left Africa. We would be worse
of as natives today under the rule
OF any other country than I am in
this country where my people were
brought up as slaves.
In a comparatively short period
Of time the slaves have become free
men-free men. that is. as far as a
proclamation can make them so.
There now remains much work to
be done to see that freedom be-
comes a fact and not just a promise
for my people
Il know, however, that I am not
the only group that has to make a
similar fight. Even women Of the
white race still suffer INEQUALITIES

Racial Discrimination
BULLETIN.

BOSTON R,.-The Ameri-

race discrimination in unions
after an extensive debate pro-
voked by a colored delegates

BOSTON, Oct IA colored dele
gates challenge of the democracy of
some trade unions plunged the AFL
convention today into controversy
over the issue of racial discrimina-
ton.
A. Philip Randolph of the Brother
hood of Sleeping Car Porters opened
the debate yesterday with a state
ment that the race problem 'is the
No / problem of America today
and a plea for the abolition of aux
iliary unions based on race. He
singled out for particular criticism
the Boilermakers and the Brother
hood of Railway Clerks. Adjourn
ment cut off immediate replies some
delegates were prepared to make.
The problem. Mr.. Randolph said,
"must be solved for the sake of the
American Federation itself to square
its practices with its professions
hi hn
AFL will forfeit the confidence of
the enlightened and liberal people
OF the world.
The colored delegate cited the
AFLs demands for voice in writ
ing the world peace, and asked,
What about the Negro? Don't YOU
think the Negroes are concerned
about democracy, too?'
Mr.. Randolph said he appreciated
the sincerity" of the officers Of the
Resolutions Committee, but had to
disagree about the scope of their
report. Mr.. Randolph had urged
criticism and condemnation Of spe-
cific practices by specific unions.

Order
IS NOW NECESSARY

Milk and milk products have tremendous
job to do in this war.
They are needed on the battle fronts and
in training camps-to help keep our boys in
fighting trim.
They are needed by all of us on the Home
Front to help keep our war effort going at full
speed.
Today, the demand for milk has reached an
all time peak and this demand is increasing
faster than production, despite heroic efforts
on the part of American farmers to meet it,
The recent drought the labor shortage on
farms the high cost of feed. .. all these have
contributed to the growing shortage of milk.
That's why the War Food Administration
has ordered the distribution of milk and milk
products to be placed on quota basis
Under this order, Chestnut Farms and other dairy
companies are permitted to distribute in October
ONLY as much fluid milk as Distributed last June.
Evening star., 1943-10-12
IMPORTANT

The cooperation of our customers in
this milk-conservation order is necessary
for its success. Here's how you can help:
FIRST: Order only as much milk as YOU
actually need-and no more.
SECOND: Don't Waste single drob. Use
any small lef-oper quantities in SOUPS,
grapies or cooked dishes.
