CIO Asks Army
DISCHARGES

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2-IPA)
Hundreds of thousands of sol
diers could have speedier dis
charges in the next few months
if a CIO proposal is accepted by
the War Department.
Discharges by mail was the
idea suggested to the War Dept.
by Clinton S. Golden, chairman
of the CIO Veterans Committee.
With increasing bottlenecks in
Army Separation Centers, mail
discharges would work for fast
er releases, Golden told Maj.
Gen. S. G. Henry, who has
charge of the Army's discharge
system.
The CIO official explained his
proposal for the veteran as fol-
lows: THE Army could give him
his travel pay-it would have to
figure that out anyway for a
transfer - and impress his fin
gerprint and obtain his sigma
ture on a discharge blank. He
could then be sent home on ter
minal leave, technically remain
ing in the service until the pa
per processing shall have been
completed, when the discharge
the Army Separation
Qualification Record, his final
pay and allowances, and any
thing else could be mailed to
him.
Soldier Has Option
"Some of this, such as the
last two installments of the
out pay is mailed un-
Ter the present system, and the
soldier has the option of having
Ill his money sent by check and
nail. The same thing can be
lone from the camp as well as
rom the separation center"
Pointing to the fact that |
Centers are only
facilities to be dis
ontinued January 1, 1916, |
Golden continued: Our propo-
al would make it possible to
ed home every G. I. almost as
oon as his services can be dis
'ensed with. And the faster the
urplus soldiers can be dis
harged, the higher the morale
nd the efficiency of those who

said Philip Murray, CIO presi-
dent, in a statement issued last
week following the adoption by
the Senate of a modified unem-
ployment bill.
The CIO president called the
emergency unemployment COM
penSation bill voted by the Sen
ate "a travesty of the measure
recommended by President Tru-
man in his message to Congress
last week." and called upon the
House of Representatives to re-
pudiate it and "to restore the
provisions for a genuine emer-
gency unemployment compensa-
ton bill as included in the Kill
gore-F -Forand measure"
Murray's statement carried a
warning of political action
against the senators who, he
said, "have rendered a grave dis
service to their country in this
crucial reconversion period. ,"
Many of them," he said, "are
apparently unaware that there
is only year until the national
elections of 1916. The working
people of this country will re-
their refusal to assure a
basis for full employment by
providing adequate purchasing
power during the reconversion
period

Deo+h Threats
Made BY Mayor
In AIubomo

NEW YORK (LPA) = Atty
Gen. Tom Clark, was asked las
week to investigate death threats
made to union organizer by
an Alabama mayor. The Work
erS Defense League reported to
Clark that the mayor of Reform.
Ala, made the threat at a hear
ing following the arrest OF
Hayes McCraery, local presi-
dent of the Southern Tenant
Farmers Union.
According to an affidavit
signed by J. F. Hynds, execu-
tive council member of the ST
Flu who attended the hearing:
"The mayor replied Ito the un-
ion attorney that they were
not going to permit a union TO
operate in or near Reform and
that someone would be found
dead if it was not broken up at
once"
Hynds' affidavit goes on to
say: THE chief of police, John
Taylor, stated that the union
was going to be disbanded if he
had to take the law into his own
hands and do the job himself,
In his letter to the attorney
general, Aron Gilmartin, WDL
said, You doubtless
agree that the action of these
own officials is in violation of
civil rights guaranteed under
he constitution. / therefore re-
quest that you act promptly to
,estore civil liberties in Reform

Herriot, three times Premier of

collaboration policies, has been
liberated by the Russians, the Soviet

No details We're given of the
liberation of the 72-year -old French
man who was serving as President
OF the Chamber of Deputies at the
time it was dissolved by the Vichy
government. His blunt protest at
that decree by Pierre Laval was fol-
lowed by announcement of his ar
rest.
Three times he was reported dead
once by the German news agency
DNB-and each time back came
other reports that the sturdy head
OF the French Radical-SocialiSts
survived.
Exact location of the camp from
which he was liberated was not
given, the Russian communioue say
ing only that west of Berlin troops
of the lst Ukrainian front freed
from German captivity the former
Prime Minister of the French Re-
public Herriot."
Son of poor policeman, Herriot
was elected Mayor of the important
industrial city of Lyons at 33 and
has held the post continuously since
being last reelected in absentia in
September. 1914
He first became Premier of
France in 1924. He again held the

MRS. BETHUNE ADVISES
WOMEN ON UNITY

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Sept. II
(ANP)-The necessity for Amer

and then stand solidly behind
chosen leaders," was the point
brought out by DR.. Mary Mcleod
Bethune, educator and w hit e
House consultant on Negro affairs,
as she addressed the grand temple
auxiliary of the IBPOEW at the
Metropolitan Opera house, during
the 43rd annual meet of the Elks.
Plans were also announced by
the organization for each Elks
lodge and temple to set up housing
bureaus to aid colored war work
ers losing their source Of income
through the reconversion program
The grand temple elections were
somewhat upset when Mrs. Pender
Miller Brown, of Wheatley Temple
No. 81, contested the reelection of
Elizabeth Kimball, of New York
City, as grand treasurer. Mrs.
Brown withdrew, however, when
partial returns indicated her de-
feat.
Other temple officers reelected
were: grand daughter ruler, Eliza
beth Gordon, of Washington, D. c.;
grand vice daughter ruler, Maggie
Hill, Ashbury Park, N. j.; and
grand secretary, Buena Kelly, of
Norfolk, Va.

Most commonly cited as Dixie's
failures in its handling of the Ne
gro problem was the lack Of voting
rights and equal education for Ne
groes below the Mason and Dixon
line. The Jim crow system of So
called separate but equal facilities
for Negroes was deemed failure
by most of those who felt the north
far ahead of the south in its fair
ness to Negroes.
Many of those polled believed
that the north was not all it should
be in its approach to the Negro
problem but all these expressed the
feeling that the south was far be-
hind the north.

Canvassed in the Negro Digest poll

the population felt that Dixie falls
behind the northern states of
America in it's treatment of col

this view.
Replying to the query, "Is the
North or South Fairer to the Ne

Oliver Denies Fight
with Bell Listed

Dixie Oliver, the clown prince of
local heavyweights, today an
nounced that he isn't fighting
Jimmy Bell or any one else Mon
day night in Griffith Stadium. This
Oliver communique is embarrassing
to Promoter Joe Turner, whose
press agent has been beating the
drums for the bout.
Oliver, who isn't at all disconcert-
ed by the fact that he has lost
three bouts in row, is holding out
for more money and if any one
has signed him up to fight Bell, 1t
is news to him, he declared. This
probably will bring the wrath of
the District Boxing Commission to
bear on him again. He used the
same tactics before he fought Joe
Baksi here and the commission
raped him across the knuckles
before Baksi knocked him out.
The Turner board of strategy is
planning a conference with the
transplanted Florida banana boat
loader to clear up the misunder-
standing, but meanwhile Oliver is
holding firm. His statement: when
they give me something I can use

CLEVELAND, Aug. %. - Dusky
Jimmy Bivins' three-year unbeaten
streak was intact today after the
slugging Cleveland heavyweight per-
formed the weird feat of kayoing
Archie Moore of st. Louis twice in
q wild battle.
Bivins, who weighed 1862 to
Moores 1853, battered the reeling
Missourian to the canvas four times
and knocked him out in the second
and sixth rounds last night as he
snapped Archie's string OF 27
straight victories. 1'r
Moore was fiattened officially in
80 seconds of the sixth round, but
most of the fireworks exploded in an
uproarious second round.
Bivins landed piston-like blows to
Moore's midriff at the start of the
second round and uncorked steam
ing right to the head to send the
slender scrapper to the floor. When
Moore staggered to his feet. Bivins
threw another right to the chin and
Archie's knees hit the canvas.
At the count of one, Bivins
brought up vicious uppercut to the
dazed battler's chin that knocked
him cold.
Referee Jackie Davis counted
Moore out, but the judges and box

Cofall, ruled that the fight should
