RACES join TO START
RE(REATI0NAL CENTER

BATON ROUGE, La, Aug. %
(ANP)-Both Negro and white
committees have joined in an effort
to raise fund of 100000 for the
purpose of constructing a recrea-
tional center in this city for Negro
boys and girls. The center, which
will contain swimming pool and
other recreational features, will be
located in the heart of South Baton
Rouge, opposite the Reddy Street
public school.
w. K. Brooks, originator of the
idea and employe of Standard Oil
as advisor in safety and recreation,
has been chosen as the president of
the United Negro Recreational as
sociation, which is sponsoring the
project. Joseph "Everready" Hen
derson, prominent hotel man, has
been chosen director of the drive.
Both are Negroes. Funds are being
sought by popular subscription
from public spirited citizens.

new SINGER TRIUMpH5 IN
MEXICO city DEBUT

MEXICO CITY, Aug. 28 (ANP)
Miss Ella Belle Davis, from New
Rochelle, N. Y, became the third
Negro singer to triumph at the
Palacis de Bellas Artos (Palace of
Fine Arts) here.
She took her place alongside of
Roland Hayes and Marian Ander-
son when she thrilled 5000 music
lovers with her first number, 'Lun-
gi Dal Caro- Bene." She received
spontaneous applause during every
number and ended her program
with "Swing Low Sweet Chariot" :"
Altogether, there were five curtain
calls after her first intermission.
There were only about four or
five Negroes in the large audience
to witness the thrilling success of a
relatively new star who came here
unheralded and unsung. | can nev-
er forget the picture of that little
brown-skinned girl in the center of
that magnificent stage and how
that glorious voice thrilled her lis
teners almost to madness.
The Palacis de Bellas Artes is a
marble structure of dazzling white

said.
The employment outlook for the
non-white iron and steel worker in
Pittsburgh appears satisfactory,
reports Felix K. Gobble, VINO min
critics representative No exact fig
ure on the number of Negro work
ers made idle since VI day was
available, he said, but the closing of
two shipyards alone threw 25,49O
workers, of which 1906 were Ne
groes, out of work. Reconversion
in 76 steel mills, where 1857 Ne
gro workers were employed, plus
other industries will greatly in
crease the number of unemployed
since the end of the war in the Pa
cific.
In six southeastern states, $4,000
Negro workers face layoffs.
'Most of the layoffs will occur in
ordnance, chemicals, iron and steel,
ships, aircraft, nOn-ferrous metals,
government, and for the most part
in all plants which will close after
the war;" said billiard B. Lasseter,
Atlanta, Regional VINO director.
"In such industries as iron and
steel, there will be a shift in the
type of work done"
He said it is expected that "the
demand for Negro labor will con-
tinue and will expand in peacetime
industries to approximately 170,-
900. Taking into consideration the
layoff Of $4,000 plus returning vet
Grams, there should be an approx
mately balanced labor market stu
alton unless there is a large migra-
tion back to this region after the
war"

NEGRO WORKERS HIT IN
CUTBACkS But JOB
OPPORTUNITIES BETTER
Than BEFORE WAR

DETROIT, Aug. 81 (ANP)-
War Manpower commission reports
from five major labor areas reveal
that Negro workers have been Wit
tally affected by job cutbacks since
the sudden capitulation of Japan
but that future employment oppor-
tunities loom brighter now than be-
fore the war.
Reports from this area, Cincin-
natl, Louisville, Atlanta and Pitts
burgh, reveal that over 100000 Ne
gro workers are temporarily idle.
Local VINO officials admit that
events since VI day have moved so
rapidly that an accurate picture of
the situation is not available.
Twenty thousand unemployment
claims have been filed, represent
ing about 35 or 40 per cent of the
total number laid off, revealed Ed
ward L. Cushman, local VINO di-
rector. local Urban League re-
ports reveal 22,500 are jobless in
this area).
In Cincinnati $500 Negro work
ers have been affected by the VI
day lay-offs, said John NJ. Bunder,
VINO area director. These included
both skilled and unskilled workers,
he said, then added that most of
them will be re-employed as soon as
the plants have been reconverted to
civilian production. The only ex-
ception will be the Wright Aero
nautical Corporation, which en-
ployed 27,071 workers, of which
1850 were Negroes, before VI day.
All workers employed by this firm
white as well as Negroes, will have
to be absorbed by other industries.
At least $4,000 war workers will
be affected in the Louisville area
within the next four months, said
w. H. Fraysure, state VINO di-
rector. He admitted inability to es-
innate the number of Negro work
ers involved. Negroes represented
10.4 per cent of the workers en-
ployed by 100 major employers in
Louisville that are engaged in con-
struction, manufacturing, trans
portation, communication and 9TH
er public utilities and government.
"We do not believe that there is
any question of the fact that Ne
gro workers will be employed in in
dustries in a larger ratio than dur

New York, March s. CUP)- Stocks broke
! 10 points Thursday when announce
ment was made OF the American First
armys crossing Of the Rhine into the
heart OF Germany.
Trading increased to such volume that
the tekers ran four minutes behind. This
was the latest the tape has been since
mid-May. 1910.
The favorable war news caught the
stock market off balance and il crumpled
easily.
Before the announcement, the market
had been under the influence OF fears of
further margin restrictions. Mariner s.
Eccles. chairman of the federal reserve
board. had told the senate finance COM
mittee that the board was studying mar
gins and indicated they might be elimi-
mated.
Market operators also were worried over

war news. II conjured up the difficulties
Of reconversion that have so often in the
past chilled market sentiment
War stocks were dumped and buyers

sharply. The leaders had losses running
