0PEN LETTER TO MIR. c. J. FRANCIS
REGARDING MACFARLANE ISSUE

by individuals of our
society, who have community inter-
est at heart and who do not of neces-
sity have to have an "axe to grind"
in order to give unselfishly and
without remuneration, their time
and energies for a just cause.
So Mr.. Francis, you would sug-
gest that as long as the fight for
democracy does not tread on the
toes of your friends, you are with
us, but when it does, you forsake
us. Is this honesty?
And because you ask it, may l
state that the Citizens Committee
is just as much interested in demo-
cratic practices at Roosevelt High
School as it is about those at Dun
bar, and when we get to this prob
lem, as we hope to do, we will call
on you again.

URGES IMMEDIATE ACTION TO
Save LIVES OF JAMAICAN
WORKERS IN CHICAGO

CHICAGO, Mar. 3 (ANP)-Im-
mediate action to save the lives of
500 Jamaican workers here was
urged as 81 of their number lie
stricken by disease.
The demand for action rather
than investigation came from Mi
chael Mann, secretary of the Chi
cago CIO Industrial Union coun-
Gil, following an investigation into
the causes of wholesale illness
among the workers who are said
to be victim Of mumps, pneumonia,
FLU and meningitis.
The men complained that in
spite of the fact they had come
from a tropical climate they were
not given sufficient warm cloth
ing to withstand the icy blasts of
zero they encountered in the Unit
States, Mann said. They told OF
shivering with cold going to ano
from their work. (The Jamaicans

building. Of this number, close to
10000 are Negroes. Some 1000
Negroes have been more or less
steadily employed in stable, or non
war industries. The belief of Port
lands pre-war residents that the
war workers will go back to their
original homes is refuted by sur
veys which reveal that IS percent
of all immigrants plan to stay
where they are after the war. Com
plicating the picture is the fact
that $4,000 out of Portland's 20,
900 Negroes live in the temporary
war-housing project Of Vanport.
Portland is also the only west
coast community in which anti
Catholic feeling has developed to
serious proportions. So-called
mantle Clubs" were formed
among city and school employees
to prevent Catholics-and Jews
from obtaining city jobs or pro-
motions.
The community is doing little or
nothing to face these problems, al
though the prospect of avoiding
racial clashes bred by such inse.
curity is obviously not the prospect
of avoiding racial clashes bred by
such insecurity is obviously not
favorable. Against this ominous
overall picture is a small group OF
citizens, representing industry, la.
Dor and local organizations, who
are attempting to arouse the com.
munity to tackle the problem con
structively.
The daily bulletin. [volume] (Dayton, Ohio) 1942-1946, 1945-03-05

The survey, conducted on the
west coast by Mr.. Liveright and
in the midwest by DR.. Robert C.
Weaver, community services direc-
tor, reveals that actual plans to
fight race tensions have not devel-
oped beyond those existing in
World War l when there followed
a wave of race riots. However,
there is more interest today among
all sections of the population, in
cluding government, but definite
plans need to be formulated, it was
pointed out.
Present efforts to achieve bet
ter racial and religious relations
will prove futile, warned Liveright
and Weaver, unless employment
levels are maintained at rate
much higher than before the war.
They point to the fact that the
employment patterns developed
during the war have tended to con-
centrate minority groups, and es-
pecially Negroes, in those plants
most likely to be drastically cut
back; in occupations offering the
least opportunity for learning mar
keting skills; and in geographical
areas most likely to be seriously af-
fected by reconversion lags or the
absence of sizeable peace-time in
dustry.
Citing Portland, Ore, as an ex-
ample, Liveright explained that
$4,000 to 10000 persons, or more
than so percent of the pre-war
working population, will be laid
off as result of cut-backs in ship

The daily bulletin. [volume] (Dayton, Ohio) 1942-1946, 1945-03-05

Although the Portland situation
is the most serious in proportion to
its pre-war population, it is not
unique. A similar problem exists
in Seattle and Bremerton, where
the Negro population has increased
from 3,789 in 1910 to an estimated
$4,000 to 10000. In Seattle, how
ever, an attempt is being made to
meet the problem through an Of
ficial Seattle Civic Unity commit
tee appointed by Mayor William
T. Devin.
San Francisco and Los Angeles
also face major problems with re-
spect to reconversion and it's effect
on race relations. In both COM
munities Negro workers are con-
cehtrated in the purely war IN
dustries; ship-building in San
Francisco and aircraft and ship
building in Los Angeles. Although
the mayors of both communities
have taken cognizance of the prob
lem and although citizens groups
have been formed to develop pro-
grams for bringing about more eff
fective unity, blueprints for wide
spread postwar employment are
lacking in both areas. Problems in
California are complicated by the
severe tension and friction already
apparent in the smaller commun-
tiles surrounding San Francisco
and Los Angeles in which the ma
jority of the war workers are
housed. Vallejo and Richmond pre-
sent the most Immediately explo-
sive prospects. In rural areas the
problem is complicated by growing
organized opposition to relocation
of the japanese.
Not only is the insecurity of both
white and Negro workers and their
fears for the future not being al

Dear Mr.. Francis: 1t is with some
degree of surprise that | have read
your open letter in the Bulletin sug-
gesting that the Citizens Commit
tee has erred in laying at the door of
Principal MacFarlane the respon-
sibility for segregation in the city
of Dayton. This we have not done.
What we do say is that we deplore
and resent the fact that Dayton has
a leader so short sighted as not to
see that his theory of voluntary seq
regation is disastrous to the per-
petuation of democracy in our
community. We contend that this
philosophy Of Garveyism is detri-
mental and outmoded and that it
is his philosophy, indoctrinated in
the minds of youth, that is causing
hatred and suspicion instead of CO.
operation and understanding.
We admit the presence of segre-
cation in our city, state, nation, and
in fact throughout the world, but is
that any reason why we should ac-
cept it as our only alternative to
solution to the problem? 1t is you,
Mr.. Francis, who have been in the
vanguard of liberalism and progress
sive action in the city ever since l
met you It is you whom have seen
at meetings time and time again,
speaking for the cause of democ-
racy, urging integration in indus
try, giving of your time and energy
to fight reaction wherever you have
found it, and now you raise the cry
of persecution in defense of the
greatest exponent of segregation it
has been my misfortune to know.
l ask you, is this LOGIC?
And now, Mr.. Francis, as one citi-
zen to another, interested in social
issues affecting minorities and
Negroes, particularly how can you
Justify our stand? | am sure you
are too sincere in your convictions
to let personal friendship becloud
this all important issue. Which is
of more concern to you, the philoso-
ply of the N.A.A.CP., which you
have so courageously supported, or
our personal loyalty to Mr.. MacFar-
lane who rejects it?
In regard to the democratic right
of parents and students to have
whom they want as principal, we
agree, but to intimate that parents
and students at Dunbar are 100 per
cent in agreement that he should
be retained, we disagree, and shall
offer the evidence in due time to
prove that he does not have the
unity of their support.
Must every citizen Of Dayton in
terested in the employment of Ne
groes in industry have relatives
seeking jobs? Must ever citizen in
terested in institutions of correc-
ton, have children of their own in
carcerated there? No, l think you
will agree that in many instances
