FEp( REPORT SAYS
NEGRO IS NATIONS
NO. / BIAS VICTIM

WASHINGTON, June % (ANP)
The Negro is the nations number
one victim Of race prejudice, ac-
cording to an FEPC report to Presi-
dent Truman.
The report, covering the first 18
months of it's existence through De-
cember, 1914, told the President
that the FEPC's immediate prob
lem is to guard against discrimin-
alton Of race, creed, color or ma
tional origin in the syphoning Of
workers from outback plants into
new war work and civilian goods
production.
The 13 million Negroes in this
country comprise the minority
group Disseminated against most,
the committee said. At least 81 per
cent of the cases docketed by it in
the last fiscal year involved COM
plants from nonwhites Of whom
Negroes constituted 96 per cent.
Jewish complaints, with a scatter
ing of other creeds, constituted
about nine per cent. The remaining
10 per cent concerned foreign or
igins, with Mexican Americans
comprising the majority.
"Private industry was charged
with discrimination in 69.4 per cent
of the cases, federal agencies in 24.5
per cent and labor unions in 6.1 per
cent" the report continued. "The
discriminatory practices faced by
minority group workers have i'm
portance in this order: refusal to
hire, unwarranted dismissal, refusal
to upgrade, discriminatory working
conditions and refusal to refer quail
flied workers for employment"
While asserting Nazi hopes to in
feet this country with religious ha-
tired has been forestalled, the re-
port said:
"The margin of our victory over
religious intolerance has been mar
row. Hoodlums have attacked Jews
in some of our wartime cities. The
dangerous undercurrent is there. In
war industries and government
service citizens Of the Jewish faith
have been denied opportunity to
serve their country.
"Yet it may still be said that such
cases, however symtomatic, have
been relatively few in number"
The seven-man committee was
created by the late President Roose-
welt May 27, 1943. It is about to
pass out of existence June 20 un.
less congress gives it more money
or makes it a permanent body.

UN(I0 CONFERENCE
is successful
By Mason Robertson

SAN FRANCISCO, June %
(ANP)-The United Nations con-
ference closed the book this week
on what is undoubtedly the greatest
single effort successfully made by
man to set up system of laws
whereby all the peoples on the globe
may live together in peace and mu-
tual cooperation.
Previous similar attempts at the
formation of a world league lacked
the essential core Of unit of all those
nations on earth individually strong
enough to wage a major war. This
Conference has that essential core
strained, it is true, by attempts on
the part Of individuals and groups to
break it-but despite their efforts
remaining intact.
The. foes on this new-formed
world league, if their plans had car
ried forward to their logacal con-
clusion, would have succeeded in
destroying that unity of the Big
Five, the heart and core Of this
world organization. They failed in
this and their failure was marked
in the face of>the UNCIO itself.
Here for the first time in all the
millions of years of mans history
we have Constitution of the world.
True, it is little more than an out
line-and a warped one at that-of
the one that is needed. It's little
more than a shaky framework on
which to build a stronger world or
ganization. But it is that. And that
marks one of the greatest steps for
ward mankind has ever achieved.
At last, man has set up force
greater than the god Of war. At
last we have the machinery with
which we may wipe out hunger and
sickness and slavery from the face
of the earth. The long, long ride Of
the Four Horseman Of the Apocal-
lypse end at last.
There are men here-and I've
talked to many of then-who feel
that the UNCIO accomplished little
if anything. They point out the
many weaknesses Of the charter.
They point out that the colonial
system, that horror and disgrace to
all civilization, was not touched.
They point out that fascism found
ready admittance to a "peace" or
ganization, proved in the presence
of Argentina. They point out the
situation in India and Greece and
Syria and Trieste as evidence that
the conference is impotent. And
they can point to hundred other
weaknesses.
But l think they neglect to give
proper weight to some of the pos
tive factors in the case. They fail
to note that Big Five unity is backed
by the passionate support of near

AIRFORCES AGAIN ON OFFENSIVE

LONDON, Feb. g -(AP)--At least 20 freight yards were blasted by 1900 American planes in the gigantic offensive to knock out the German transport system which feeds both the eastern and western front.
 A force of more than 1200fort- resses and liberators escorted by $50 fighters followed the same pattern yesterday. Widespread targets were smashed from low attitudes of 5000 to 12,000 feet.
 More than 10000 planes have been thrown against the Reich in the past three days by seven allied air commands.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 23,-CAP)- The Army announc4i that it was ready to close dow he Canadian Oil Development project and write it off. $34,000,000 have been sunk into this strategic war expenditure.

BILL TO
 MAKE FISH ESSENTIAL

WASHINGTON, Feb 23. --(AP) Lack of unity in the policy of drafting commercial fishermen is seriously endangering the in- dustry Senator Magnuson declar- ed as he introduced a bill to put these workers on a par with farm labor in the essential production of food.
 He said, the Draft Boards take fish-boat captains and engineers and the result is that a whole crew is out of production.
