Survey Show. Industry Determined
To Provide Jobs for War Veterans
BY consrsssmon Frances P. Bolton -

Of the first Roosevelt braintrusters.
Since then he has had various jobs,
one Of which was as aide to Mr..
Byrnes in the Office of War Mobi-
lization and Reconversion.
Another OWMR man named O.
an assistant is Walter Brown. As
his previous work was press rela-
tions it is expected that he will
be given a high post in the in
formation section of the State
Department. A third assistants
job in the legal field has gone to
Donald S. Russell, also of OWMR.
Prominent at the White House
ceremony when Mr.. Byrnes was
sworn in was Bernard Baruch. 1t
will be interesting to see whether
his influence will be felt. You
recall that he advocated stripping
Germany of the industrial capacity
to make war and that he wanted
full and prompt publicity given all
agreements with other nations.
THE Apprentice-Training Service
L of the War Manpower Commits
sion has established a nationwide
program for the training Of skilled
electricians. Standards have been
set up by the National Joint Ap-
premiership Committee for the
electrical industry, assisted by
ATS and duly approved. Represen-
tatives Of the National Electrical
Contractors Association and the
International Brotherhood Of Elec-
trical Workers constitute the elec-
tricians joint committee.
The training program calls for
on-the-job training, with specified
wages and related classroom in
struction. 1t also makes provisions
for the transfer, if necessary, Of
apprentices from one employer to
another to provide all-round train
ing and steady employment, inso-
far as this is possible.
THE resignation of Justice Rob-
L erts from the Supreme Court
upon the attainment Of his 10th
year came as both a surprise and
shock to all Washington. Few
members Of the Court have oc-
cupied such a position Of confi-
dence, few men have been more
respected or more beloved. His
place on the Court will be difficult
to fill, the choice will be momen-
tous.
Justice Roberts has a place in
the hearts of all who have been
privileged to know him, one which
no other personality can fill. Not
only the Capital but the country
will lose much in his leaving the
bench he has so eminently occupied.
Washington will miss him as it
will miss his delightfully."- friendly,
outspoken, gay wife. Mrs. Roberts
! is as irreplaceable as her husband

quiry has been wholehearted and
wonderfully encouraging.
In spite of many perplexing and
troublesome limitations due to such
factors as price and labor ceilings,
job seniority rights and material
restrictions, our businessmen are
sincerely determined to see that
the men and women who have been
in uniform are given jobs-some-
times their old jobs, sometimes
better jobs utilizing new skills
learned in service, and sometimes
jobs especially suited to those who
have been partially disabled.
Much credit is due the heads
of firms in the Cleveland area for
their thorough and farsighted
plans to absorb discharged veter-
ans in such a way as to satisfy
their job needs and keep the wheels
Of our industries turning through
the concentrated campaign in the
Pacific and on into the period of
peacetime production.
CHANGES in Departments will
~ probably be first-line activities
during the coming months. Secre-
tary of Agriculture Anderson's
new Under Secretary is to serve
as general manager, and General
Eisenhower's brother, Milto o n,
heads a committee whose duties
are to reorganize the Department.
The Labor Department is getting
itself set for many changes, one
Of which may be taking over all
activities having to do with the re-
employment of veterans now being
handled by the Veterans Admins
tration.
Vital changes in the State De-
partment are not in the present
imelight in view of the absence of
the newly appointed Secretary, but
it will be of interest to know some
Of the immediate appointments to
the inner circle of influence. Best
known Of the appointees of special
assistants is Benjamin v. Cohen,

JIM-CR0W SCHOOL BLOCKS
EQUAL RACE OPPORTUNITIES

RICHMOND, Va, Mar. 81 (ANP)
"A necessary precondition to equal
educational opportunity in the south
is the elimination Of separate school
systems, declared DR.. Charles H.
Thompson, dean of the graduate
school of Howard university here.
The disparity of educational op-
portunities afforded whites and
Negroes was pointed out by DR..
Thompson. He said that if the rate
of progress in educational oppor-
tunities for Negroes since 1880
continues, it will take about 200
years to make educational opportu-
mites for both races equal in the
south.
DR.. Thompson urged friends Of
the Negro to push for more federal
aid in education as a means of
bringing about as much equality as
possible under a bi-racial educa-
tional system. This should be done,
he said, so that the south will be able
to educate the whole population, to
seek opportunity in political spheres
by increased use of the ballot and to
educate those in power that equal
educational opportunities for Ne
groes is essential to the public well
fare.
The effectiveness of race rela-
tions in the labor movement is
shown in the fact that organized

Of the poll tax and abolition of the
white primary, said Miss Lucy Ran
dolph Mason, CIO public relations
director, Atlanta. She said that the
labor movements in the south has
done much for education in race re-
lations by union meetings in fac
tories and plants where whites and
Negroes work together, and by sup
porting two schools of education for
union members, with emphasis on
race relation education.

international bOILERmAkERS
union agree TO take NEGROES

WASHINGTON, Mar. 21 (ANP)
In step with the recent trend to
curb job discrimination is an act
by the international Brotherhood of
Boilermakers, Iron Shipbuilders
and Helpers, faction of the AFL
that is known for its bias practices.
The order which is $4,000 men,
bers strong, last week voted to ele-
vate it's Negro members to full
union status. Up until now the COM
parative handful of Negroes have
been members of the 35 or 40 sec
ond-class auxiliary locals.
The agreement climaxes long
fight on the part of union members
and although it does not now wipe
out jimcrowism it grants Negroes
complete autonomy which makes
them available to become officers of
the international.
Official announcement was made
by Nelson Cruik, AFL director OF
social insurance activities, in an ad
dress at Times hall, New York.
