FEpC Steps In
To Remove Race
Employment Bar
Find Negroes
First To Be
Given Layoffs

ST. LOUISIANA - A cease
discrimination order was given the
United States Cartridge company
here last week by the Presidents
Fair Employment Practice COM
mittee according to an announce
ment by Malcolm Ross, FEPC
chairman.
The FEPC order was the result
of seven specific complaints grow
ing out of charges Of racial and
employment discrimination against
Negro workers. While four COM
plants were dismissed, the FEPC
ordered the company to hire one
Negro worker who had been refus-
ed employment and to reinState
two other Negro workers.
FIRED FIRST
Examinations of cutbacks occur
ring last spring showed that the
use of different seniority systems,
one for Negro and one for white
workers, resulted on one occasion
in more Negroes. being discharged
than would have been under the
single seniority system provided in
the IabOr-management contract
with the United Electrical, Radio
and Machine Workers of America,
CLIO, and that during two subse-
quent cutbacks, the white workers
suffered a dispr0pOrtiOnate number
Of discharges under the dual sem
lority system. -. -. -. -.
The FEPC rulings follows public
hearings held here last. summer
against the United. States Cart
ridge company when William Sem
ter, general president of the
CLIO United Electrical, Radio and
Machine Workers of America, tcs-
titled that it was impossible to ap-
ply equitably the principle of sem
iority when there. are segregated
, units within a plant. -. ...:.
CONDEMN SYSTEM
The racial quota system "is
equally as mischevious when used
to select employees for lay-offs as
when applied with regard to their
hire" the FEPC declared. Argu-
nents by company officials that
Negroes have benefited under the
quota system were held as indie
feasible by the FEPC since ''the
executive order forbids discrinina-
ton against white as well as
against colored employees

GETTING READY
All port stated this week that
the "the number of assaults ano

number. On the other hand, un-
reported incidents, the spread OF

cial libel, and the existenc of in
sulting remarks, all indicate that
Boston should be prepared against
outbreaks that may occur if posi-
war conditions fan the flames o1

guilty Of the murder OF Mrs. Mar
tina Virginia James, who was a
passenger on the Southern Pacific
West Coast Limited, has up to this
day maintained his innocence for
the crime which the finger of guilt
has, according to the count records,
been pointed in other directions.
SUSPECT MARINE
Convicted by a jury on which
there was not single Negro, 1t is
the concensus of most. Negro lead
ers throughout the country that
the young dining car cook is VIC
tim of circumstantial evidence
which even in his case were not
sufficient TO warrant the death
penalty.
From the records of the court
it is the opinion of Negroes that
the marine who played an active
part in and out Of the Lower Is
compartment that Inflated night
in January, 1943, was more than a
mere material" witness in the
case.
If 1t were not for mass pressure,
the committee feels that the true
facts in the Scottsboro and Sleepy
Lagoon cases would never have
come to light. The committee, in
behalf of American justice to all,
regardless of their racial back
ground, has issued a nationwide
appeal to the American people to
request Gov. Smell to commute the
doomed mans sentence, thereby
giving him fighting chance to
live with hopes of gaining his free
dom for the crime which he main
tains he did not commit.
CITE MOONEY CASE
The committee calls to the at
tention of the nation of the cele-
brated case of Tom Mooney, who
was sentenced to die for a crime
which he did not commit. If Moon
ey's sentence were not committed
he would not have lived to con-

Hunting Season Opens In
County With A Big Bang

The squirrel season opened
last Saturday with more hunters
in the woods than ever known
before. Old timers say they new
er heard as much shooting be-
fore. One citizen on a ridge near
Freezing says that he counted
over 100 shots within less than
an hour. Hunters were in every
hollow and on every ridge.
Therefore, squirrels must have
been more plentiful than for
several years. Much preseason
hunting was reported in all coun
ties in this end of the state and
the game warden and a few help
ers were kept busy for three
weeks before the season opened.
Many persons have had no
shotgun shells for a year, while
others in some unexplained man
ner accumulated a good supply.
The two hardware stores here
received supply of shells some
time before the beginning of the
hunting season and both announc
ed that shells would be sold the
day before the season opened.
Friday morning found the town
crowded with would-be-buyers
from here, there and everywhere.
Best estimates placed the crowd
at over one thousand. They stood
in line as the stores opened and
as long as the shells lasted each
person was ollowed ten T h e
shells were exhausted before all

DRAYTON MUSICK DIES AT

Drayton Musick, rs promin-

zen, passed away after a short
illness at his home near Haysi
on Monday. His death was attri-
buted to heart trouble from which
he had been suffering for several
years.
He came to the county many
years ago and married a daugh-
ter of the late Andrew Willis. He
started in the mercantile business
shortly after coming to the coun-
ty and continued in this for the
remainder of his life.
His wife and only daughter
passed away several years ago.
Funeral services were held at

crowd of relatives and friends.
Burial was in the family ceme-

the last day of this month and
will open again November 18th,
