Louis Area Central Jurisdiction,
Methodist Church, will be the
Guest Speaker at Mckinley Metho-
dist Church, Fifth and Hawthorne,

U. ). NEGRO WIVES OF
west INDIAN WORKERS
BEING LEFT BEHIND


turns the thousands of Negro West
Indian workers to their homes in
Jamaica, Barbados and other West
Indian areas, score of American
Negro women whom the West In
dians had married find themselves
in a pretty desperate situation.
The work contracts of their hus-
bands have been suddenly cancelled
as the result of the ending of the
war and mounting unemployment.
In most cases the West Indians are
given only five days notice in which
to arrange their affairs before
leaving the country. The hurried
separation of these workers from
their wives only to- sweat it out in
an overcrowded assembly depot at
Camp Murphy in Florida, was a
major cause of serious riot at
that camp few days ago.
This riot marred an otherwise
excellent record for courtesy, re-
straint, and gentlemanly conduct.
Throughout the country the West
Indians enjoyed the reputation of
being intelligent and self-respect-
| ing workers. Their demand that
they be accorded reasonable and re-
spectful treatment often irritated
people who drew improper conclu-
sions. On the whole the West In
dians merged easily with the Amer
ican Negro population and got
along in America without much
trouble, though to many of them
the American white ''men" is crude
and uncivilized.
Many American Negro women,
like prominent Negro labor lead
er found the West Indians to be
"just like we are" If this be true,
the immigration authorities are 60
ing to have pretty tough time
catching up with the several hun
dred West Indians who have
jumped their contracts and disap-
peared in the general Negro popu-
lation.
When the West Indians first be-
gan to discover the attractiveness
Of American Negro women, they
sought advice on their freedom to
marry in the United States. They
were told that the government was
obligated to provide transportation
back to the islands only for each
workers luggage and himself.
Apparently the West Indians
did not expect the war to end SO
suddenly. Few of them have made
arrangements to take their wives
home with them. Husbands and
wives spend their five days dash
ing from place to place trying tc
make last minute arrangements.

Kelly Takes Charge
OF Surplus Office
As Bradley Resigns

James L. Kelly, associate director
of the Office of Surplus Property,
took over the reins of the Commerce
Department agency today following
the resignation Of William s. Brad
ley who leveled blast yesterday at
the Surplus Property Administra-
ton policy-making board headed by
w. Stuart Symington.
An announcement Is expected
Monday from the Reconstruction
Finance Corp. on the new organiza-
ton in which OSP will be taken
over by the RFC.
Mr.. Bradley announced his resig-
nation at a luncheon meeting of
business paper editors in the Ra-
leigh Hotel, and at the same time
criticized the Surplus Property Ad-
ministration on the recent revised
regulation dealing with surplus
property for veterans. The retiring
Official also hit at the scrambled
pricing policies" enunciated by Mr.,
Symington's Office.
Symington Is Silent.
:. Mr.. Symington declined comment
on the charges.
"The new Surplus Property Ad-
ministration, within 10 days Of its
inception, and without carefully
thinking through the problems in
volved, issued the revised veterans
regulation over the positive protest
of the Department of Commerce,
Mr.. Bradley declared. He added
that the regulation placed the vet
eran "just below the eleemosynary
institution and voluntary fire de-
partment as priority claimant"
He pointed out that it had been
the policy of OSP to sell surplus
property ''at one price only" to each
level of trade and to allow normal
trade discounts. Under the Surplus
Property Administration, however,
different prices are established for
various buyers, Mr.. Bradley said.
Could Not Agree.
The Oflce of Surplus Property
could not agree with this policy, not
only on the ground that it is COM
mercially unsound, but also because
in my opinion it. violated a number
Of the provisions of the Surplus |
Property Act Of 1941, and is in direct
violation of the Price Control Act,
Mr.. Bradley continued.
MFR. Bradley was on leave as presi-
dent of the General Mortgage Co. of
Dallas, Tex, and was appointed to
his OSP post last June II. He has
served in the War Food Administra-
ton, the Office of Price Administra-
tion and the Federal Housing Ad-
ministration.
