records that Negro workers made

trial establishments In which they
were employed will be highly i'm
portant factor during the period Of
layoffs and reconversion.
Postwar cutbacks will be felt most
severely by the shipbuilding and
munitions industries, including air
craft, explosives and chemicals, and
automotive equipment. After re-
conversion, however, many of these
workers will be rehired in the auto
mobile trades. The consumer goods
industry will require little reconver-
sion, and will have great expansion.
Those nonwhite workers who were
fortunate enough to find employ
ment in the consumer goods in
dustries will undoubtedly hold their
jobs. BY far, the vast majority OF
Negro workers, however, have beer
employed in the producers goods
industries, which include raw ma
terials, like coal, iron, steel anc
tools and machinery. There will be

ployment in this industry, but not
nearly as much as in munitions
Negro workers need be thankful fol
that.
A nation geared to war production
suddenly finds itself confronted with
changed economy. From a labor
shortage We move toward a labor
surplus. After severe shortage Of
consumer goods for nearly foul
years, we are now promised ar
abundance of the necessities ane
luxuries of high standard of liv
ing. The production of these good
and services will require manpower
and lots Of it.
Negro workers have acquired many
skllls during the war years, both il
the armed services as well as on tn,
fproduction line. These skills com
prise national asset. American in.
dustry will not pass up the opportu
nifty to avail itself of their use
THESE skills are as valuable to in
dustry as iron ore in the fields O
Pennsylvania or coal in the noun
talns OF West Virginia. There will
be, OF course, period OF reconver
sion unemployment confronting mil
lions of workers, white as well a
colored. After that, however, tn
Negro worker can look for a full
utilization of his acquired skills.

The facilities of the USES have
also been adjusted to care for the

afford them every opportunity for
Job openings. From January /, 1915

The War Manpower Commission
and the United States Employment
Service are vitality concerned with
postwar employment opportunities
for Negro workers. Many studies
have been instituted for the purpose
OF securing information on employ
ment prospects during the period
OF reconversion. Preliminary reports
from region indicate that most
Arrangements have been satisfied
with the performance of nonwhite
workers employed during the war
years. The majority of employers
plan to continue these workers in
postwar jobs where seniority rules
and production demands will per-
init. Management is planning to lay
off workers in accordance with es-
tablished seniority provisions. Labor
unions, generally, accept this policy.
It may result, however, In a dispro-
portionate layoff of Negro workers,
since in many industrial establish
ments the colored employees were
the last ones hired, and therefore
hold less seniority than white
workers
Good Record to Influence.
These studies further disclose that
in many industrial plants where
Negro workers have made good pro-
duction records, where absenteeism
was low and turnover rates were
negligible, employers will ind some
avenue by which these workers will
be retained. Generally, speaking,
employers do not discharge salts
factory workers and retain in their
service unsatisfactory ones. The

day.: there were approximately So
$50, 000, 900 worth of goods either in
shipping pipelines" at depots or in
process Of manufacture. The United
States asked each of the govern
ments with whom we have lease
lend agreements to notify us within
30 days whether they wish to receive

raised several billion dollars above
the $31 1868, 909, 900 which the Presi-
dent reported had been exported
through July /, 1915.
Although Congress, when renew

year, provided that 1t should not be
used for postwar relief, postwar re-

act provides that lease-lend goods

expected that stable amounts of

sumption goods still may be sent
to our Allies under satisfactory ar
rangements for payment. The
French already have concluded such

More specifically, Chairman Nav

ing immediate program:
Give the corporation the same
wide power to make loans to small
business as is possessed by the Re.
construction Finance Corp. in max
ing loans to big business.
Enact legislation to enable small
business to obtain its fair share o.
materials and machinery during thu

tive Of the discontinuance of tota

assistance to small concerns wher
ALLEGATIONS or similar controls ar,
discontinued.
OF long-range importance, Nav
erick states, are the following steps
Give the corporation power Il

ance to be extended to banks max
ing loans to small business, compar'
able to the Federal Housing Admin

Extend to the corporation the au
thority to accept basic contracts of

sistance, and including the limited

SWPC As Lending Agency Opposed.
Mavericks proposal that tn,
SWPC be extended In peacetim'
as q small business lending agenc!
was vigorously opposed before thu
Senate Banking and Currency Com
mittee by the American Bankers
Association. Harold Stonier, execu
tive manager of the association, salt
that the banks had a plan which
would take care of small business
all right" This plan was formed
after adoption of a resolution by tn
ABA in September. 1913, which con
demned Government loans or tn
guarantee of loans" for Commercial
enterprise after the war As 'actuall
contrary to sound financial polio,
and the best interests of the Amer
lean economy"
The bankers said they were pre-
| pared, as an alternative, to extern
term loans to small concerns, t
create small business loan depart
ments in every major bank, to ex
tend specialized services to smalle
correspondent banks so that they II
turn might lend funds to small bust
nessmen, and to form credit group
or pools to minimize credit risk
which a single bank might hesitat
/ to assume. More than "a of sucl
bank credit pools already have beel
organized.

pressed the view that the chief diff
f1culties of small business have bee

private groups provide special aid to
small business, abuses are less likely
to develop If such aid is made avail

Der declared.
An opposite position is taken by
the Committee for Economic De-
velopment, which believes that OBJ
stacles must be removed which i'm
pede the establishment OF new busi-
ness and the growth of small, indie
pendent concerns. The committee
supports strict enforcement of anti
trust legislation, fair treatment of
small business in production quotas
for civilian goods during reconver-
sion, and preferential treatment for
tax relief. AS an alternative to Fed
eral financial aid and technical adj
visory services, the CED suggests
action by Its 1900 local committees
to provide capital, to establish re-
search institutions and to use ex-
listing educational facilities for in
struction of small businessmen ir
commercial subjects.
The outlook for small business Il
not painted in dark strokes by al
Government spokesman by any
means. Experts like Howard Bower
of the Department OF Commerce
(Which Is expected to absorb the
SWPC) foresee postwar resurgence
of small business with the remova
of wartime obstacles to the starting
of new Arms. with the return of pc.
tential businessmen from the armed
services and war jobs, and with thu
restoration of civilian economy
There is abundant evidence, say!
Brown, that small business is ar
institution of great vitality"
Notwithstanding this evidence,
Maury Maverick and other top adj
ministration figures are determined
to help smooth the road ahead fol
