states, in six there is an active pub
lie opinion which is pressing for
some type of action. The NAACP is
active in both Wisconsin and Mas
sachusetts, whereas in Michigan
the Detroit Metropolitan council is
spearheading the move for intro
duction of a bill.
The National Council for a Per-
manent FEPC, with offices here,
has drafted a model bill for which
sponsor is being sought in New
Mexico where 40 per cent of the
states population is Mexican or of
Latin origin. In Minnesota and
Maryland Little FEPC" is just in
the talk phase.
In addition to the one prepared
by the National Council, a model
bill has been drafted also by the
American Jewish Congress.
Regarding the other forms of leg
islation attacking discrimination in
job hire, the survey reveals that no
state has a comprehensive measure,
the New York statute having the
widest scope. The statutes of Cali
fornia, Connecticut, Michigan, and
Wisconsin apply only to civil serv-
ants. Discrimination by the trade
unions is forbidden in Kansas, Ne
braska, New York and Pennsyl-
vania.
Interesting features of these laws
are the application of the New
York act to public utilities the pro-
hibition in the California law of any
notation of civil service appli-
cant's race, color, or religion; the
provision for reinstatement and re-
endorsement of aggieved employees

Is States CONSIDER
LITTLE FEp('5'

WASHINGTON, Jan. Is. =
(ANP)-Legislatures and public
opinion in at least sixteen states are
giving serious consideration to the
enactment of little FEPCs," a
comprehensive survey made by the
Associated Negro Press discloses.
Apart from this 13 states have in
the last II year enacted legislation
forbidding discrimination in en-
ployment because Of race, color,
creed, or national origin. These acts
are applicable to state civil service,
home or work relief, public work
contractors, war contractors, or
trade unions.
In no less than six states, bills
have been introduced or are in the
drafting stage. New York is prob
ably the furtherest advanced of the
group, the survey shows. The tenn
porary committee appointed last
year by Governor Thomas E. Dewey
is due to report by February l. In
his message to the legislature two
weeks ago Governor Dewey called
for enactment of such legislation.
His committee has already held pub
lie hearings on proposed measure.
In Pennsylvania where the State
Temporary Commission on the Con-
dition Of the Urban Colored Popu-
lation has been at work, a bill is now
being drafted. Lawrence Foster is
the executive director Of this group
In California, Leon Washington
and the Los Angeles Sentinel are
giving leadership to assure enact
ment Of a bill already introduced
there. Both Kansas and Colorado
are understood to have bills pend
ing, whereas in Illinois, Governor
Green is repeatedly drafting a meas

latures in four states Connecticut

The House bill is the tougher OF
