FEPC BLOODY
BUT UNB0WED

The work of the Fair Employment
Practices Committee has been con-
tinued by congress, but with only half
as much money appropriated for its
use as last year
The present appropriation was Sc
cured only after a magnificent battle
by the agency's supporters who were
able to keep in suspense funds for
all other agencies covered by the ap-
preparations bill until the FEPC mat
ter was settled. Congressman Cliff
ton Woodrum, D, Va, said he voted
for the FEPC appropriation because
he saw no other way to get funds to
the other agencies.)
FEPC will be seriously crippled,
however, by the cut in funds and has
been compelled to reduce its staff.
Several proposed plans are under con-
sideration for the continuation of
work including the possibility of
spending the money appropriated in
less than one year or using volunteer
workers.
Even though the agency has been
seriously weakened, the fact that it
received any appropriation in face of
the bitter opposition of a congression-
al minority demonstrated its great
majority support.
Many members of the Southern
Tenant Farmers Union were among
those who wired and wrote their SEN
ators asking support for FEPC.
Following the present house recess
an effort will be made by proponents
to secure adoption of the Norton bill
to create permanent FEPC, and con-
tinued and increased support will be
needed at that time. Already 131 sig
natures have been secured to a petit
ton to bring the Norton bill out of
committee.

FIGHT FOR
ANNUAL WAGE
ON in SOUTH

A demand for an annual income 0
1925 year for all farm labor in tn,
cotton producing South has beef
raised by the Southern Tenant Farm
ers Union with headquarters in Mem
phis.
H. L. Mitchell president of tht
Southern Tenant Farmers Union an
nounced today that the plan for al
annual wage for farm labor was
worked out in a conference in Mem
phis July 18th and 18th and approved
also revealed that 10000 printed cir
culars are being distributed by the
union throughout the Delta regions
along the Mississippi river.
AS outlined in the circular, the pro
posed annual wage for farm labor is
based on a rate of pay of not less
than $500 per 10 hour day and shall
include wage hands, sharecroppers,
tenants, and working farm owners,
who it is stated, are employed on an
average of 125 days a year. producing
and harvesting cotton. Cotton pick
ing wages of $3.50 per 100 lbs. is also
called for in the handful.
The proposed annual wage will give
each farm family an income of SLIP
day, 965 days year or 43c day
for each person in a family of four,
to purchase food, clothing, and shell
ter. The American standard of living
calls for an income of not less than
$4,000 for an average family. The pro-
posal for farm labor is one fourth of
this amount.
Contracts guaranteeing each share
cropper and tenant an average large
enough to produce cash income of
1928 a year is also advocated.
Small farm owners are urged to
unite with the wage hands and share
troopers in supporting the demand for
an annual income and to recognize
that they are competing against low
wage rates and selling their products
in a market controlled by the big farm
operators.
Mitchell said that his organization
was seeking a bottom on farm wages
in the south and at the same time,
organizations of planters were calling
upon the War Food Administration
to set a ceiling on farm wages in the
Delta plantation area. The Arkansas
Agricultural Council and the Delta
Council of Mississippi have petitioned
VIA to set a ceiling wage.
According to Mitchell, group of
planters in Louisiana is reported to be
forming a combination to place a
ceiling of $1.OO per day on wages paid
farm labor in that state,
Mitchell said that he believed the
plantation owners were very short
sighted in their policy of keeping
wages low and that they had lost
thousands of workers and that others
will leave the plantations too if they
are not guaranteed a wage the year
round which will provide bare living. |

done SO.
In the meantime the strike is at
tanning a real impact ON the entire
American labor movement, as unions
everywhere recognize more and more
clearly that this seemingly small labor
dispute in Hollywood is a challenge
from big business to the democratic
bargaining rights of all organized
labor.
Members of unions not involved in
the strike are appearing in masses
on studio and theatre picket lines.
Thousands of CLIO members have
joined the ALL picket lines to de-
fend labor's basic gains.
Throughout the nation pictures from
the following studios are labeled hot

mocracy for all of American labor:
