children when school is out are now
being worked out on a city-wide
basis by the Leisure-time Commit
tee of the Council of Social Agen-
cies, composed of Community Chest
and public welfare agencies.
The delinquency report shows
that 729 cases reached juvenile
court in 1913, compared with 469
in 1912, and 455 in 1941. Boys
cases increased so per cent in the
year, and girls cases increased 98.2
per cent. Almost SO per cent of the
cases came from "broken homes"
The report urges parents to give
closer supervision to their children,
to ma,-s adequate plans for their
care when they are away at work,
and to see that they stay in school
as long as they can. 1t questions
the value of wartime earnings at
the expense of child's health and
behavior.
The report also points out the
difficulty of educating young peo-
pie to observe laws when adults
openly flaunt them. 1t cites black
marketing, illegal employment of
under-age children and the INSULT
cient punishment of adults wrongly
influencing children, as a few of the
contributing factors to the situa-
ton.

Races Equal
Speaker Tells
Three Meetings

DR.. W. NJ. Krogman, information
ally known University of Chicago
anthropologist, declared Tuesday in
Minneapolis that all races are bio
logically equal.
DR.. Krogman, brought to Mime
apois by the Round Table of Chris
tians and Jews for the principal
address before the annual meeting
of that organization, also addressed
the Minneapolis Kiwanis Club, the
Minneapolis Teachers League and
the Life Insurance Agency Cashiers
association at the Minneapolis Ath-
letic Club.
Race Problem Is Dynamite
DR.. Krogman told the Round
Table meeting at the bennington
Hotel Tuesday night, "The race
problem in this country packs po-
tential dynamite, and the sooner
we get working at it the better"
He described his years of study
of the human anatomy searching
for differences.
''Biologically these so-called "a
cial distinctions have no significance
whatsoever. In the case of Ger
many, the talk of a super-race is
just so much political propaganda.
Actually, Germany is as hetero-
geneous as any nation today, and
just as much of a melting pot as
the United States"
Granted there is biological
equality, the next step is social
equality, he declared, and that
is a matter of education.
"Our prejudices are just excuses
to bar certain competition from
our midst"
In Detroit, the race riots were
not in areas where whites and
Negroes had lived side by side for
years, but in the districts where
the contact was new and the two
races knew nothing of each other,
DR.. Krogman said.
Judge Paul Carroll, Protestant
member of the Round Table, pre-
sided at the bennington meeting.
Among those at the speakers table
were: Ben W. Palmer, Father Louis
Forrey, Gerald J. Patsey, Father

man, Judge Edward Waite, DR.. C.

Los Angeles Street Railway
Operates at 500 Capacity,
Refuses to Use Negro Labor
Failure to Employ Negroes
flinders War Effort in
Los Angeles

New York City, N. Y, March
10. (U.L.S.) The Los Angeles
Railway Company is operating
slightly more than 80 per cent of
its equipment in the face of un-
precedented demands for more eff
ficient transportation service, it was
reported by Reginald A. Johnson,
Field Secretary of the National
Urban League. Completing a two
months survey of conditions in
West Coast industrial centers,
johnson explained that the per-
sistent refusal of the Railway Com
pany to employ and upgrade Negro
and Mexican workers was entirely
responsible for the transportation
bottleneck in the California me-
tropolis.
The company's policy in this re-
spect remains unaltered despite ac-
ton of the FEPC and several re-
sponsible public and private organ
izations whose chief concern is i'm
proving the company's inadequate
service to thousands of war work
ers in the area.
For number of years, according
to johnson, Negroes have sought
jobs as operators, platform workers,
and bus drivers with the Los
Angeles company. Officials of the
company have always taken the
position that the public and their
white employees were unwilling to
accept Negroes as platform work
ers, although it was we'll known that
in Detroit, Cleveland and New York,
Negroes were successfully en-
ployed in this capacity. Early in
1943, it was said, the transportation
problem became extremely acute.
At one time it was reliably stated
that the company's manpower
shortage was upwards of 600 work
ers in the operating department
alone. More than so street cars
and many of the buses operated by
the company remained idle daily.
Meanwhile, the company hired and
upgraded green and inexperienced
white mechanics and operators and
refused to promote Negroes be-
yond the grades of laborers and
helpers.
Situation Very Acute
Frequent shifts of company en-
ployees to more profitable jobs in
local war industries has produced
a critical situation, johnson re-
ported. Current estimates show that
the company now needs some 1900
workers to meet minimum transit
requirements. Even before gas ra-
tioning and the heavy increase of
defense workers, the Los Angeles
Railway is reported to have OPP
Grated 700 cars and large feet of
buses daily. Less than 6 months
ago, only 500 cars were in operation
daily and bus operations had been
seriously curtailed. The company
owns 1000 street cars, and it is
estimated that an additional 400
should be acquired if minimum
transportation needs are to be met.
Civic organizations, government Of
ficials, and representatives of Los
Angeles war industries have in
sisted that the company improve its
service, and it is expected that the
Mayor of the city will take steps
to solve the problem.

of War Henry L. Stimson, to con-
vert some Negro combat troops into
labor battalions. He reported that
two Field Artillery Battalions, the
930th and the 931st, have been
transformed into a force of "com-
bat engineers" These troops,
though labor units, are also pre-
pared to fight if necessary.
Stimson has been under fire for
a statement published in the Con-
gressional Record Feb. BIRD, which,
according to the virtually unani-
nous opinion of the Negro press,
falsely impugns the Negroes eff
cheney.
Stimson, explaining what Rep.
Dawson calls a mo combat" policy,
in answer to an inquiry from Rep.
Ham Fish (R., N. ", made this
statement:
at so happens that a relatively
large percentage of the Negroes
indicted into the Army have fallen
within the lower educational CLASH
ications, and many of the Negro
units accordingly have been un-
able to master efficiently the tech
nique of modern warfare"
Later, when Stimson was asked
as it the position of the War Dept.
that colored American troops, on
the whole, cannot be made into
combat units because of their al
legedly low educational classical
TONS" he replied that it was not.
He added:
"The number of troops now in
combat and being prepared for ac-
tual combat is a clear indication of
our policy"
Dawson, the only Negro in Con-
gress, said that the issue had grown
beyond the merits or dement's of
Stimson's statement.
"The repercussions of the Incl
dent have served to bring into the
open the ~aCls vita. iSsde Of the
War Dept.'s segregation policy"
he said. 81 can say that the ques-
ton of the Negroes second-class po-
sition in the armed services has
reached a stage where it can and
will result in decisive changes"
He said he was in close touch
with the War Dept. and that the
whole question of the segregation
policy was under discussion.
Dawson blames the Confederate"
elements in the War Dept. with re-
sponsibility for creating and per-
the Jim Crow system in
affairs, and said the whole
Department was ''honey-combed
with professional Southern military
career men," President Roosevelt
inherited that situation, Dawson
explained, he did not create it.
Dawson, himself veteran of World
War l, said that Southern officers
and their "confederates" in the War
Dept. were especially fearful of the
development of any very large
group of Negro officers.
The influential Baltimore Afro
American, widely read along the
East Coast, said editorially:
"Our own views are that the Sec
rotary of Wars statement on edu-
cational qualifications of colored
troops is stupid half-truth, an in
excuse for not doing his
duty"
The Harlem newspapers, the Am
sterdam News and the Peoples
Voice, said the controversy revealed
the real reason why Negro combat
battalions have not been sent into
service in war theaters. They point
ed out that the only Negro combat
units which have seen action are
the 99th Pursuit Squadron and the
450th Anti-Aircraft Battalion.

Corp. Norbert Peltier, of the
U. S. Marine Corps, after 26
months service in the Pacific
theatre of war, has brought
home his foreign-born bride
at least he is here and she is
safely enroute.
But, while the conquest of
June Mallow's heart, in Victoria,
Australia, is to him the most
important victory achieved by
the young Mount Clemens ma
rine, he has also played true
leatherneck's role in savage bat
ties against the Japanese at
Guadalcanal, Tulagi and in New
Guinea. -
The beginning of the story
dates back to August Is, 1910,
when Corp. Peltier took the Ma
rine oath.
At that time Nippon's back
stabbers had not reached Pearl
Harbor, but apparently they
had the idea in mind.

, Subsequent to the history
making attack upon U. S. Ha-
waiian possessions, Cpl. Peltier
was sent in May of 1912 to the
Pacific theatre of war.
DARK DAYS
When the Marines invaded
Guadalcanal and dark days en-
sued, Cpl. Peltier was in the
thick of the fighting. But
| GuadaIcanal was only the first
in a series of hops that took him
to a dozen key backgrounds.
He is naturally reticent about
his part of the action, and
coupling that with strict censor
ship rules covering furlough
absences, one can only guess at
the details of his grim exper-
fences.
For 26 months Peltier saw
intermittent action, but in all
that time he never once was laid
up because of wounds or the
numerous ailments that beSet
jungle fighters. 1t was between
hops in this series of island
jumps that his division was sent
to a rest camp in Australia. The
rest Of the story you can guess.
But don't.
1t was in Victoria on the con.
tinent down UNDER that he met
the then June MalloW and he
lost his first battle TO Dan Cup
id. They were married, and as
they were separated by the
fortunes of war, vowed they
would meet again in the United
States. This vow is being kept,
for Mrs. Peltier and their four
months-old son, Barry Norbert,
are now enroute to their new
home.
EXPECTED SOON
Passage was booked upon
steamer plying between the two
continents and Mrs. Peltier's ar
rival is expected daily. While
in Mount Clemens the Peltiers
will make their home with MIR.
and Mrs. Paul Geffert, SIS Ken
drick, who have been father
and mother to Cpl. Peltier since
he was a child.
Following the expiration of a
30-day furlough Corp Peltier
will return to the Marine Base
at New River, N. Carolina for
future assignment.
Norbert has a brother Ulysses,
who is following in his footsteps,
and who now is a Marine sta
toned in Pearl Harbor. An
other brother, Joseph, lives at
home with Mr.. and Mrs. Gef-
fert.
