Carl Franzen's appointment to the responsible position of Shipbuild- ing Manager at the Electric Boat Company came as a bit of a sur- prise to many, but was welcomed by the men in the Yard as another gesture by the management of try ing to strike up equitable and friendly relationships with the workers in the Yard and their Union which represents them. This promotion of MT. Franzen pleases the SMEU (AFL very much as it has always looked with discour- agement upon the Company's ear- Her policy of bringing in outside men to take positions of importance left vacant by deaths or resigna- tionS. The Unions attitude has al- ways been, that a man who has grown up within the company, who has risen from the ranks, and has seniority of service, should fill these key positions.
 The employees of this yard could not have picked a better man them selves to fill this position. A la- bor man himself, he was the only one of the ''big shots" of the com pany as superintendent of installa- ton who would go along with the Union on many of it's suggestions. He never has turned a deaf ear to progress If he had any difference of opinion with Union men he nev- CT used the arts of deception to cover his opinions, he always frankly explained his position and gave his reasons. Yes, Carl Fran zen came up, from Labor the hard way. Worked his way to earn his education in country teeming with educational opportunities. He

officers, who were discharged, from the date of their discharge until Saturday. The Company proposed to calculate the amount of lost pay jointly involved with the Union and to turn over a single check for the entire amount to the Union so that individual checks could be distributed to the men concerned either by the Region Director of the National Labor Relations Board or by the Union.
 pr. A. Howard Myers indicated that he would approve such set clement only if the three discharged men were to notify him individual ly in writing that they would re- fuse unemployment by the Com pany even if the Company were directed to reemploy the men by the NLRB after 8 formal hearing on the charges. He indicated that this position was being taken be- cause under the National Labor Relations Act, if any employees arc wrongfully discharged be- cause of union activities, then they are entitled to full reinstatement as we'll as all back pay.
 The Union representatives in at tendance reported to Dr. Myers that the three discharged men: viz. Arthur c. Ward, president, George Richard, vice president, and C. Rowland Bishop, clerk, had been previously contacted and had in- formed the Union that they would refuse unemployment if offered. They also reported that the Pres ident, Arthur C. Ward has per- manently moved to Lewiston, Me, and has no intention of coming back to this locality. George Rich ard, vice president of the Union is now permanently employed at Babcock's at job which will con- tinue after the duration of the war, and C. Rowland Bishop is now employed in an executive capacity at the local A. F. of I. offices.
 The Company also signified it's consent to the posting of notices to all employees upon bulletin boards in the plant, setting forth a stipulation by the Company that it would not discourage member ship or holding of any kind of off, flee in the AZ of L Union or by discriminating against any em- ployees who will become members or officers in the AZ of L Union. The notices to be posted on bulle- tin boards will also disclose to Electric Boat Company workers the promises and agreement by the Company ''that it will not, in any manner, interfere with, restrain or coerce any employees in the exer- else of their rights to form, join, or assist this Union in order to bargail collectively and engage in other activities for the mutual aid and protection of Union members"
 The Union is ready to sign written agreement which will set forth the understanding reached in Boston Saturday as soon as it has determined the amount of money which will be necessary for full reimbursement, and this amount is written into the draft of the agree ment which the Company has pre- pared and also as soon as Dr. A. Howard Myers gives his written approval to the agreement and a withdrawal of the charges against the Company.

Women in Club
For Roosevelt

Fifty Negro women joined forces,
last week, with several hundred
women of all nationalities in a
Women for Roosevelt Club for the
reelection of President Roosevelt
for a fourth term, with offices at
900 Andrus Building, Minneapolis.
These women joined together as
independent voters to stimulate
nonpartisan discussion of the basic
questions of war and peace and to
make known the facts on which we,
as women from all political parties,
base our contention that the re-
election of President Roosevelt is
the greatest assurance America can
give to the world this year that we
propose to join with all peace-loving
nations in a cooperative effort to
end war"
Mrs. Thomas Mohn of Red Wing,
former member of the Republican
State committee, is chairman. Mrs.
Lloyd Johnson of Duluth, co-chair-
man, who sought the Republican
nomination for Congress in the

ming of the war and the establish
ment of a lasting peace are issues

Bertha and Edward
Williams Remains
Here for Burial

The bodies of Bertha Williams,
who died in Philadelphia, Oct. 25,
and her father, Edward J. Williams,
who died about 10 years ago in
Philadelphia, were brought to St,
Paul, this week, for burial at Oak
land cemetery, Wednesday, Oct. 81.
Brief services were held at the
graveside with Rev. B. N. Moore,
pastor of St. James A. NJ. E.
Church, officiating. ]. E. Johnson,
526 St. Anthony, an old friend of
the Williams family, was notified to
take care of arrangements in St.
Paul.
Miss Williams and her father
were well known to old settlers in
st. Paul. For a number of years
Mr.. Williams was Pullman porter,
running from st. Paul to Canada
and is thought by some to have been
at one time engaged in the real es-
tate business. Another daughter,
Anna, was brought here and buried
several years ago. They had pur-
chased family lot at Oakland dur
ing their residence here.
Former friends of the family who
attended the services Wednesday
morning were Mr.. and Mrs. J. E.
Johnson, Mrs. Andrew Bell, Mrs,
Grace Ferguson, Mrs. John Kelly
and Mrs. Thomas Neal. No known
living relatives survive.
Brooks Funeral Home was in
charge.

MAXWELL LEO BOHANON
1t was announced last week that
Maxwell Leo Bohanon, director of
Social Service of the Minneapolis
Department of Public Relief, has
been appointed to the overseas
staff of the United Nations Relief
and Rehabilitation Administration
as an administrative assistant at
$4,000 per year.
Bohanon's Minneapolis position
was the only one of its kind held by
Negro in the United States. A
native of Indiana, his early educa-
ton was in that state. He came to
Minneapolis in 1927 serving for
several years on the Phyllis Wheat
ley Settlement House staff as boys
worker. He graduated from the
University of Minnesota in 1884,
and in that same year joined the
Minneapolis Relief department
staff, working his way up the lad
der to his present position.
At the peak of the relief load,
Bohanon supervised the work of
$50 persons, a group which included
only three Negroes.
Six Negroes have now been ap-
pointed to the overseas staff of the
United Nations Relief and Rehabili-
tation Administration, at salaries
of $500 each, according to a re-
cent announcement of the agency
naming three additional admins
trative assistants.
The last appointees are A. L..
Kidd, of Tallahassee, Fla, former
registrar at Florida A. & NJ. Col
lege; Julius Jerome Robinson, until
recently the race relations adviser
of the Farm Security Administra-
ton, and Mr.. Bohanon.
Previous appointments included
Malcolm Jackson, former member
of the council in the Virgin Islands;
]. P. Bond, a Red Cross club di-
rector in Australia, and Earl Pruitt,
who was manager of Louisville's
largest public housing project for
Negroes.
All of these appointees receive
orientation training at the Univer-
sity of Maryland, and are expected
to sail for their overseas assign
ments within about eight weeks.
They will be engaged in various OPP
irrational and organizational jobs
with no connection with minority
race problems.

Carey Predicts
Dewey Victory

In an interview with Talmage B.
Carey, in charge of the Republican
Campaign in Hennepin County, he
predicted Governor Dewey will be
elected president on November 7th.
"The American electorate" says
Carey, "has found in the pronounce
ment of Governor Dewey, heart
ening trend for the future of our
nation. His honest conviction on
the issues of the hour backed by a
splendid record of achievements
rings true to the American way of
life.
"Mr. Dewey's pledge on matters
directly affecting the future of Ne
groes is fortnight and honest.
Most Negroes are not willing to
trust their future to political ma
chine where control is in the hands
of the Connelly's, Rankins, and
Billbos.
"As the campaign goes down the
last stretch, it is very obvious that
the voters are Analysing the pledges
of the party platforms and the
fortnight Interpretation of the re-
spective candidates.
"The trend toward Governor
Dewey is gathering momentum,
and with his election the future Of
the American way of life is as
sured," Carey declared.
