 MANAGEMENT BATTLES ITSELF
 Few people know it, but the Labor-M a g m ent Conference came within a hairs breadth of making some progress before it broke up. The big fight took place at a secret management caucus which lasted until 2 a. m.
 Eric Johnston Of vs.s U. s. Cham Der of Commerce, David Sarnoff of the Radio Corporation of America, and Herman A. Steinkraus, Presl- dent of Bridgeport Brass, pleaded with their management colleagues to soften a bitterly anti-labor resolution on collective bargaining. The resolution not only required performance bonds from labor for violation of contracts, but also went so far as to demand antitrust laws for unions. abrogation of the Wagner Act, the repeal of the Norris-LaG Guardia Act which pre- vents injunctions against strikes.
 On the other side of the fence were John 4. Stephens Of U. s Steel and Alnon [. Roth, repre- senting West Coast shipping in terests. At 1 a. m., Roth anc Stephens finally yielded slightly They arreed to soften the Ian guage of their resolution by no mentioning the Wagner Act or thu is-LaGuardia Act by name but their substitute draft mean almost the same thing. Sarnoff ant Johnston, who knew that labo leaders could never afford to agret to the Stephens-Ross proposal without slitting their own throats begged their management col leagues to reconsider. Finally a 2 D. m, the meeting recessed.
 Early the next morning, John ston called Judge Stacy, the con ference chairman, and asked tha the days meetings be postpone' from 10 a. m. to 3:30 p. m. in tn hope that management could reacl an acceptable compromise in tn interim
 However, the conservative man agement clique still refused to yiel further. When the meetings wer resumed. the CIO and AFL of fered to accept the entire manage ment proposal if the four anti-labo points were eliminated This sen management back into caucu again. However, Stephens, Rotl and John Clement, President 0 the. Pennsylvania Railroad, stil refused to go along, so under tn rule of unaninity. the conferenc blew up.

A Word from 'Is Lordship

Lord Byron Nelson's amazing string of golf victories has led a number of the country's top ana lysts to predict that the unbeatable Umbrella Man will reign supreme for a decade or more. 'Is Lordship, however, has different ideas. Says he:
 q don't kid myself for a minute about my own position because I expect to get knocked off by the kids coming out of the service. I've seen couple already in Army camps that made me blink. If the PGA can put up all the golf courses we'd like to right next to those hospitals, you'll see the hottest golf this game has ever known much better than. I expect to play. |"

good crop has arisen. These men, with the advantage of continu- ous activity, all stand a fairly good chance of annexing the crowns they may soon be fight ing for. -
 Gus Lesnivich has two good men like: Melio Bettina and Archie Moore to worry about. Tony Zale, Worlds Middleweight Champion, has a good crop of men to wade through. Ray Robinson, although a natural welter, may decide to try the heavier class, for he slashed through his own division and lacks competition there, Jake LaMotta is going to be a tough nut to crack, and Jose Basora, although badly beaten by LaMotta recently, should mt be discounted. Either of these men may be the next worlds mid dleweight champ.
 In the welterweight class, we have Freddie Cochrane, at best only a clever semi -finalist who will probably be defeated the first time out. Freddie, at 32, was discharged from the Navy re- gently and was knocked out in his first important bout by an in-and-outer, Rocky Graziano. What would happen should Fred die tangle with Robinson, is best not discussed.
 The lightweight class is, as al ways, a muddle. There are more title claimants in this division thar in the wrestling game. The boys in the foreground, however, are fair ly good crop. Willy Joyce, Bob Montgomery, Beau Jack, Ike Will Hams, etc., are all main event ma- terial, and one of these may emerge undisputed champion.
 The featherweight class, like the heavyweight, is fairly we'll sealed up, with Willy Pep Stand- ing out like a sore thumb. His only apparent competition is 17 year old Bernard Docusen, the New Orleans sensation who is an unknown substance outside of his own hOme-state. His record, however, is studded with deci- siOns over men like Phil Terra nova and Lulu Constantine. He is due to for his New York un- yelling soon.
 The bantamweight class is also fairly secure in the capable hands of Manuel Ortiz, the Mexican who is at present serving in the Army. But the big question is not the aspiring professionals and veter-

A man who won a title in gigantic journeys like the Stars and Stripes, the Inter- Allied and Mediterranean cham pionships, must be better than average mauler. Their schooling was tough, but thorough. They may, if they decide to turn pro, be forced to start at the bottom of the ladder with prelims and semi-final spots, but it is almost
 a pre-destined factor that even tually the chosen few will be showing their stuff before packed houses. How many champions their number will produce is question, but one that promoters will do we'll to investigate and encourage.

With the end of the War sports moguls all over the country begin looking forward to an era which they hope will be comparable to the Golden Age of Boxing" which made famous such personalities as Jack Dempsey, Babe Ruth, Bobby Jones and other immortal satellites.
 The first World War brought forth such famous boxers as Au- gie Rather, Capt. Bob Roper, and of course, Gene Tunney. None of the above mentioned trio had done much more than engage in preliminaries in their own back yard prior to entering the Armed
 Forces. They emerged to gain world fame.
 Of the present world champions. Joe Louis, Gus Lesnivich, Tony Zale and Manuel Ortiz are in uni form. Their titles have been froz- en for the duration, and while these men were fighting the "real main event" over there, youngsters and rejuvenated veterans have risen to the fore in the boxing spotlight. Mike Jacobs, who holds the desti- nies of most of the better boys in his hands is assured of at least one bout to rival the second Dempsey Tunney in gate receipts. That his toric event, although it drew more than $2,65O,OOO at the turnstiles, may be overshadowed by the com ing Louis Conn affair.
 Louis, supposedly, has passed
 the best fighting age of cham
 pion. Conn is slightly younger
 and at least 25 pounds heavier
 than he was for his first meet
 ing with Louis. The big point, however, is that neither man has engaged in any bout of conse- quence during their long service.
 It is this inactivity, more than
 the age, which may prove their
 biggest handicap.
 The war has produced many heavyweights, who, because of the recent lack of talent, have pulled down terrific gates and fought to top houses in the leading clubs over the country. Of this group, Jimmy R;vonS Toe Raksi. Tami MauriellO and Lee Oma stand out. Normally, these men would have been good semi-final material, but none of them, even collectively should cause Louis any undue worry. His title, if no other, is as safe as the day he stored it in camphor to fight for Promoter Uncle Sam.

MOP At CAMDEN
OFFERS CITY-LIkE
ATMOSPHERE TO
ALL employees

For the first time since work
began at the Naval Ordnance
Plant at Camden the full in
tegration of Negro workers seems
brighter than at any time before.
With a community established to
house the workers of the plant,
consisting of all the urban sur
roundings, with every facility
found in any community available
to the choice of anyone's desires
supervised entirely by Negroes
loffers a picture to the workers
that has only hereto existed in
ones mind in the deep south
land where federal projects
are controlled by community ira
ditions.
Thru untiring efforts of E. D.
Peoples of Pine Bluff, aided by
several white liberals who are
in authority, conditions that are
prevalent in most communities
where government work is car
ried on, RELOCATING the Negroes
to places of work and habitation
that have kept the South at the
bottom of the ladder in every
field of endeavor, have disap-
peared. And rising in their stead
are decent Jobs and decent dwell
/ lings, surrounded with sanitation
recreational facilities Of all kinds,
| places for religious worship. All
these are provided along with
every other necessity of life on
government property, eliminat-
ing the needs of having to 60 into
communities that may not offer
the hand of welcome. Whether the
present Fair Employment Prac-
tice Committee, had hand in
this is very doubtful, but it is a
fact that the spirit of that COM
mittee is embedded in minds of
those in authority to such an
extent that the practice is a
reality.

JEWISH OFFICER
BRAVES WRATH
OF u. S. ARMY TO
FIGHT jim CROW

NEW YORK CITY (WDL)-
Reminiscent of the stand of Sgt.
Alton Levy in 1913, is the story
of a Major in the Army who stood
successfully against the segrega-
ton Of soldier-patients at a hos
pital in the South Pacific area.
The Majors story was told in
the May, l945 issue of The Crisis
Magazine, published by NAACP.
Like Levy, the Major was a Jew.
AT a meeting of the staff the
Commanding Officer instructed
the officers that the information
IN the order to follow was secret.
Then he told them that two weeks
from that date, colored soldiers
at the hospital were to be segre-
gated from the whites. They
would be given separate wards,
would be seated in a roped-off
section at movies, would eat at
separate tables or attend mess at
a different time, would have
separate sports activities. Then.
the c. 0. asked for questions One
or two officers asked questions
concerning the mechanics of
carrying out the order.
The Major was surprised at
this, since there had been no dis
play of racial feeling among the
men. Yet he hesitated to be the
first to protest. However when
it appeared that the meeting
would be adjourned without a
single protest, he rose. On ques-
tioning the CO he found that
the order was official, though
verbal which meant that he must
obey or face courtmartial; nor
could he even write about it in
a letter. These facts did not dis
courage him, however.
Granting these things he said,
Il shall make every determined
effort to convey this outrage to
the States by every means avail
able, also wish to remind you
that patients and friends of mine
are returning shortly to the
States. | shall make it my bust
ness to report it to every liberal
newspaper and magazine in the
States. Furthermore, ! shall i'm
mediately ask for transfer to a
zone of operations where such
prejudice does not exist" He
sat down in a dead silence, boil
ing within. None among his col
leagues gave him support by ges-
ture of words. Like Levy, he
stood alone.
