ment takes the responsibility of curbing any protest
demonstrations which may result.
Although powerless to enforce its directives the
FEPC under its present set-up has demonstrated
in small way what can be done to insure fair en-
ployment practices The FEPC staff in Philadelphia
are given credit for standing firm on the question
of hiring Negroes after the strike came and man.
agement would have yielded.
The need for a permanent FEPC is great. AS
the committee stands, its only weapon is publicity
and the force of public opinion certainly none too
strong for giving the Negro fair deal in employ
ment. At recent hearings in st. Louis four out of
plants cited for discrimination against coored
workers refused to accept the FEPC's ruling and
change their policies. If legislation were passed set
ting up a permanent Fair Employment Practices de-
partment with power to enforce it's drectves, such
plants would be compelled to give Negro Americans
employment on the same basis as whites. Until the
day when Americans begin to practice the equality
of which they speak so gliby, some agency like the
FEPC will be necessary to safeguard the rights of
Negroes to jobs according to their abilities

"FREEDOM ROAD"

Freedom Road a mastery book on the recon-
struction period by Howard Fast has just been pub
lshed historical novel built around the character
of Gideon Jackson South Carolina freedman the
book meets the issues of Negro rights squarey Today
when we are facing similar crucial period in our
history, Freedom Road has an important lesson
for us. Mr. Fast tells of the deal that was made
between the North and South at the time of the cleo
ton of Rutherford Hayes to the presidency - deal
by which the North washed its hands of the South
leaving its problems to the former rulers - the plan
tation class Had the federal government not with
drawn and left the South to its devices, including
the Khan and the disfranchisement of the Negro,
our history from 1876 to the present might have
been far different. Cooperation between the poor
Southern whites and the freed slaves might have
become reality. Today many argue that the South
must solve its own problems its own way without
Northern interference" No better answer to this
contention has been made than Freedom Road"
