FEPC TOttering
AS War Contracts
Are Cancelled

WASHINGTON, D. C. (NNPA)
Wholesale cancellation of war
contracts by the Army and Navy is
stripping the FEPC of its authority
over determinations in hiring and
working conditions.
Under the Executive Order of
the President, the agency has had
jurisdiction over complaints against
all agencies of the federal govern
ment, over complaints against all
employers and the unions of their
employees having contractual rela-
tons with the federal government
which expressly or by implication
contain a nondiscrimination clause,
and over complaints against en-
ployers and unions of their en-
ployes engaged in industries essen
tial to the war effort, whether or
not they have contractural rela-
lions with the government.
Except for a few contract hold
ers, the FEPC will be limited now
to handling complaints against
agencies of the federal government.
This is happening at a time when
determinations in layoffs and hir-
ing and rehiring are likely to in
crease. There is nothing the pres
ent FEPC can do, however, until
Congress passes legislation making
the agency permanent and giving
it jurisdiction over industries in
volved in interstate commerce.

Minneapolis Boy
Saves Youth
From Drowning

Bernard Wilkinson, 10 years old,
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Bernard ].
Wilkinson, 1858 Xerxes Avenue
North, saved the life of an uniden-
titled boy at Crystal Lake, on Au-
gust 10, it was revealed this week
by his parents.
According to Mrs. Wilkinson,
there is step-off about fifteen feet
from shore, but Bernard and his
playmates who go to the lake fire.
quently to wade and fish, are
familiar with the drop and avoid it.
The unidentified boy apparently
didn't know about the danger, and
walked off into deep water.
Threw Him Pole
Bernard saw him struggling and
crying for help, but at first thought
he was playing. 1t wasn't until he
saw him ready to sink for a third
time that young Wilkinson realized
the lad was drowning, and threw
him a pole which the latter grabbed
and held onto until Bernard pulled
him to shore.
Mrs. Wilkinson, who arrived on
the scene few minutes later, had
no knowledge of the rescue until
Bernard said, Mother, 1 just saved
this boys life" The rescued youth,
afraid to go home and tell his par
ents of the near-fatal mishap, in
sisted on remaining at the lake to
play.

Recalling advice given him by

says that the only hope of success
in this fight lies in generating
enough pressure in the locals and
local councils to get favorable
action.
Many Are Progressive
Today, "the ALL has a number

Lewis says. at is our job to seek
them out and with them overcome
discriminatory practices which
have been carried on throughout

"Negro members must learn to

councils" he adds. He also urges
Negroes to pay their dues, attend
meetings and take an active part in
union programs.

Unemployment compensation
benefits are administered through
the offices of the USES. Already,
signs are appearing that this
Cushion" for unemployment which
is bound to develop during the
change over from war production
to peacetime activity is being used
as a hammer over the heads of
some groups rather than as bene-
fit to them. With return of the
local employment service offices to
the states, the problem is expected
to become even more acute.
Reports are coming in that
war workers who are losing
their jobs because of the can
collation. of Army and Navy
war contracts are being offered
jobs at lesser pay and below
their acquired skills. When
they refuse the jobs, the en-
plOyment service interviewers
cut off their unemployment
compensation benefits by de-
claring them ineligible.
This practice is seen as a
particularly dangerous weapon.
1t is one which may be used
whOlesalely in the South to get
Negroes back into the kitchens
and other mental jobs at sub
standard wages.
A protest has been sent to the
War Manpower Commission by the
CLIO concerning the alleged prac-
tice. In many cases, the CLIO de-
clared, skilled workers who have
been receiving 81 or more an hour
are being referred to unskilled jobs
paying 80 cents an hour, and upon
refusal to accept this "vicious wage
cut" are denied unemployment
compensation benefits.
