CarOlinians Lose
In Seat Fight
at Demo Meet

CHICAGO, July II (By Wire)-
Despite being rebuffed in their eff
fort to be seated as the accredited
delegates from South Carolina. the
group of eighteen Negroes from
that State, headed by John McCray,
has pledged its support to President
Roosevelt. This was announced in
an executive session of the Ma
tional Democratic committee today
by Oscar Ewing, vice chairman of
the National committee, following
hearings held on the South Carolina
seating contest.
Ewing told the committee that a
subcommittee had held hearings
and that both groups of delegates
made a fair presentatin of their
claims, but no challenge had been
made of the proper election of the
regular delegates. He then recon-
mended that the regular delegation
be seated. In the hearing, the Negro
group told the subcommittee that
it considered itself representative
citizens of the State of South Caro-
lima who are DESTROYS of participant
ing in the political activities of
their State as members of the
Democratic party. They reported
that they had asked the Democratic
party of their State to allow them
to participate in the party's affairs.
They used every process and ex-
hausted every avenue to gain par
ticipation within the party's frame
work. When they were refused,
they had to organize their own
Democratic party.
Maybank Contests
Senator Maybank of South Caro-
lima also appeared before the COM
mittee to contest the desire of the
Negroes to be seated. Before en-
tering the hearing, during an hour
wait to be called (which show the
Importance he attached to hearing
being heard), he told reporters that
he considered the Constitution su-
preme and that the question of Ne
groes voting in South Carolina pri-
maries had never been brought be-
fore the courts. That there likely
will be no further contest on the
part of the South Carolina Negro
delegation before the Credentials
committee for seating was indi-
Gated by the fact that some of them
obtained reservations to leave Chi
cago Immediately after the deci-
sion of the executive session of the
National committee.

Johnson Quits
One u. S. Post
Warns On Jobs

WASHINGTON, D. c. (NNPA)
Clarence Johnson, one of the most
highly respected and effective men
in labor circles and in the field of
race relations in the government,
has resigned his position as field
representative for the War Man
power Commission on the West
Coast to accept the position of Re-
gional Race Relations advisor with
the Federal Public Housing Author
ity, the NNEA learned this week.
Although the reason given for the
change being made by Mr.. johnson
is that he and his wife are anxious
to move back to the East, it is
known that he was entirely out OF
sympathy with the anti-social at
titudes in the VINO, particularly
as exemplified by the United States
Employment Service.
Mr.. johnson will fill the position
formerly held by Henry Moon, now
active on the staff of the CIO Po-
litical Action Committee. He will
assume the position on July "a.
Offered Viewers Job
He was called to Washington re-
Gently and offered the job as head
of the Minorities Group Service in
the WMC-the position vacated by
DR.. Robert Weaver who left IN
Illustration to accept the executive
dictatorship of the Mayors Inter
racial Committee of Chicago.
The VINO cooled off" on Mr..
Johnson when he informed the OF
ficials that he would consider the
lob only on condition that the MI
norities section be moved out Of the
Placement Bureau of VINO into the
administrative office where it could
do an overall functioning job. Inns
was the complaint of DR.. Weaver
whose efforts were made Intellectual
bv the submersion of the section IN
a subordinate bureau.
Mr.. johnson is known to have
felt that despite the fact the USES
was set up to do a job for all the
people, it's philosophy has been to
keep rapport with employers and
the employer who pays the wage
must have the decision as to who
he takes on the rolls"
Critical of Employment Service
He felt that the Employment Ser
vice was permitting the taxpayers
funds to be used to widen dis
elimination. On several occasions,
he and others were disturbed over
the fact they had to fight with peo-
ple- inside the service as well as
with people outside of it.
Mr.. Johnson. believes that with the
return of the veterans and with
industrial cutbacks now starting,
that dislocations are coming in the
whole labor market. 1--WE ought
therefore, begin to be concerned
with shaping attitudes and habits"
he says, "to see that Negroes do
not fall back into the same places
they were before the war-into ser
vice, unskilled and mental work"
