For the past several months
there has been an acute short
age of housing accommodations
in Toledo, and its immediate en-
virons. This shortage is vividly
portrayed by the following stat
istical facts which were supplied
by the United States Empoly-
ment Service and the War Hous-
ing Center.
For the period August l 20
September l immigrant traffic
was 215 PEI sons. This figure
represents individual interviews
at the U. S. E. S. Outmigration
totaled AZ or about 20T. The
principal reason given for leav-
ing the area is lack of housing
The Office of War Housing
Center has the following data:
During the past six months Ne
groes made 676 applications for
private housing. OF this num-
Der 465 were declared eligible
for war housing.
ALLEGATIONS have heretofore
been made of priorities for the
construction of dwelling units
in this vicinity, but it is a fact
causing some concern that, al
| though to a certain extent these
priorities have been used for
the construction of housing ac-
commodations for Whites, none
have been made available for
Negroes. In view of the fact that
the housing shortage is serious
ly affecting the welfare of Nc
groes living in the City of To-
ledo and its vicinity, and as a
consequence thereof is affect
ing the welfare of the entire
community, it is the consensus
of this committee that definite
steps must be taken to make
available in and around the City
of Toledo reasonable housing ac-
comodations and facilities for
Negroes so that the preesnt over
crowded, unsanitary, unsatisfac-
tory housing conditions among
Negroes so that the present over
AS a means of accomplishing
this desired end, and after con-
sidered thought, it is the sug-
gestion of this committee that
the following course of conduct
and action should be executed.
l. Reasonably adequate pri-
vate housing facilities for Ne
groes in the City of Toledo
should be made available by the
use of local private capital.
2. Should the above be i'm
possible or impracticabe, then
private housing facilities for Ne
groes in the City of Toledo
should be made available by the
use of private capital obtained
outside of the City of Toledo.
3. If neither of the ends
mentioned in Nos. l and 2 here
inabove is attainable within a
reasonable period of time, then
it is recommended that public
housing facilities be made avail
able for Negroes in the City of
Toledo through the Federal
Housing Administration, and
that steps to procure such pub
lie housing be Immediately
taken.
In making the above recon-
mendations, an attempt has been
made to set forth those things

THIS HAS
WITNESSED GREAT ACTS

The greatest military event III the his
tory of the world and probably one which
will never be witnessed again in such
magnitude occurred Tuesday morning,
June 6, when the invasion Of Continental
Europe took place from England. 1t is
almost impossible to imagine the huge
concentration of ships, airplanes, para
chutes and other equipment which were
needed to make the crusade successful.
The people of this generation have seen
events in the life of man that will never
again be packed with such emotion, such
sorrow, such achievements in as short a
space of time. We have not only parti-
cipated in two world wars, but also saw
the development Of airplanes, radios,
automobiles, and many other scientific
instruments and discoveries.
The world has been in suspense for
months waiting for the time. Confidence
was the predominating emotion, yet there
was a trace Of apprehension and uncer-
tainty. Expectations are held that en-
shaved people of Europe will rise up and
overthrow their German masters. Stimuli
taneously it was announced that Russia
had started another giant offensive.
Perhaps the feelings of people will
never again be under such a strain as they
have in the past several weeks and will be

THE VOTE

News dispatches from the little country
Of Iceland relate that a republican form
of government was adopted by a vote Of
So per cent Of the people this week, and
that all former governmental control by
Denmark has been voted out.
The vote by 90 per cent of the voters is
an impressive feature, particularly when
considered in connection with their vote
for a republican form Of government. 1t
augurs well for a sound form Of peoples
government with such, almost universal,
active participation.
We wish, if not too hopefully, that here
in Montana we could have a vote Of 90 per
cent of the electorate this year. We are
optimistic enough to believe that if We
could have that, we would not have the
slightest cause for uneasiness about the
results Of the election. We are sure that
the most progressive, liberal and socially
conscious candidates would be chosen if
that percentage of Montana voters cast
their ballots. We believe implicitly that
an overwhelmingly large percentage Of the
voters in our state are liberal, independ-
ent and progressive in their views on pub
lie affairs. Unfortunately, it has been
true in the past on many an election day,
too many of the voters have failed to go to
the polls. 1t is also an unfortunate fact
that we have in this state a large, %influen-
tial and highly organized group of sup
porters of powerful special interests OPP
posed to social legislation for the common
good Of all of the people of the state and
concerned only with protecting their own
selfish purposes and exploitation. And
tins group and all those theycan Influence
are sure to go to the polls. They always
vote and too often win by organized effort.
We hope that all Of the people Of the
state this year will realize that they owe
it to themselves and to society to go to the
polls and discharge their responsibility as
intelligent citizens Peoples Voice.

Standard Treatment
The standard treatment for syphilis
requires one or two injections a week of
an arsenical drug and bismuth, given in
a series, for a period of a year or 10
months. These injections do not inter
fere with continuance at work. After
2 or 8 treatments, most patients become
nominations, and are no longer dan
gers to their families and close asso-
ciates provided they remain under treat
ment.
The danger at this point is that pa
tients will not continue treatments until
they are completely cured, or at least
permanently nominations.
New rapid treatments for syphilis and
g%onorrhhea give promise Of much speed
Ter cures. A proportion Of early cases of
Montana labor news., 1944-06-08

early symptoms are not always easily
discovered. A hard sore on the parts Of
the body exposed to infection is usually
the first sign. Even without treatment,
the sore disappears, But the syphilis
germ has not gone away. Later on, a
rash appears on the body. That, too,
goes away after a while. But the dis
ease is still present.
Found early and treated thoroughly
by qualified doctors, most syphilis can
be cured. Untreated syphilis often dam
ages the blood vessels, brain, nerves,
liver, eyes or other parts of the body.
The results are tragic.
Where does syphilis come from, and
what's the treatment for it?
Syphilis is a widespread contagious
disease caused by a germ known as a
spirochete. The germ is carried from
person to person. One catches syphilis
by getting some of these germs into his
or her body. This happens most often
through sexual relations with an infected

syphilis, it is now believed, can be cured
in Is days or less. But the new rapid
treatment methods are not without dan
ger. They require special hospital IA
%cilities, which are not now generally
available. only expert physicians with
special training can safely guide treat
ment and tell whether the patient is
cured.
Needless Suffering
So much needless suffering, so many
wrecked marriages and broken homes, so
many disabling illnesses, SO many man
days lost to production could be avoided
if syphilis and gonorrhea were discoy-
cred early and treated. We know how
to be rid of these venereal diseases if
we think it important enough.
This series of articles is a call to ac-
ton. Armed with the facts in the case
against venereal disease, and fired with
a determination to get up in arms
against it, organized labor can be n Of
the major forces in a successful on
slaught that will stamp it out.
The fight against venereal diseases
must be waged on 2 fronts-preventing
infection and treating all those infected.
Diphtheria was once a serious cpl
demic disease. But it has been
brought under effective control. The
same things holds true for smallpox,
cholera and other contagious diseases.
We can-and should-register the same
success in the drive against syphilis and
gonorrhea.

with their CWn education were sew

1t took war to lift the ban-but
once it has been lifted there, and
possibly in other cities, it should
stay lifted.
Because the girl who marries
When young needs an education
Just as badly as do single girls her
age. She needs to be educated SO
that she will be a better mother if
she has children. She needs an edu-
cation as pers onal insurance against
the time when she might have to
earn her own living, She needs an
education in order to have a richer
fuller life of her own.

And-aS is brought out in the case
of the student married to a lieu

may need an education in order
to be able to keep pace with her
husbands position in life.
If girl is kicked out of a public

on the responsibilities of woman

chance to make a success of her

Such girls ought to be encouraged
to go to school, and to specialize in
