F1ays N0rtherners For
Stand On Race Equality

SANDERSVILLE, GA, Jan. 19
(ANP)-Northern propagandists
were accused of stirring up the
race issue in the south by John R.
Irwin, an 80-year-old lawyer and
author. Irwin has just published
his book, Racial Problems Dis
cussed."

my book for nearly SO years and
only during the past few months
have | had time to carry out my de-
sire," Irwin said Having lived in
Georgia all my life, defended and
prosecuted thousands Of cases in
court, and made study of the Ne
gro race, l am today all the more
firmly convinced that the white
and black races in the south never
have and never will want racial
equality.
Gail the agitation has come from
northern people who are not fam
iliar with conditions in the south, +"
the .8O-year-old lawyer continued.
"God saw fit to segregate and sep
arate the different races by placing
each in different lands, to keep
them pure. History tells us that
mixed races are the least civilized

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10 CAMP
The Capital Transit company was
publicly charged with pursuing
discriminatory practices in it's hir-
ing of platform men and conduc-
tors when the FEPC formally
opened it's two-day hearing amid
the austerity of the court of ap-
peals. Six of the seven committee
members were present, and about
120 spectators filled the court
room.
In his opening statement Chair
man Malcolm Ross delared that "it
is one thing to deplore prejudice
in an arm chair and quite another
to attempt to remove it." He added
that the FEPC has had consider
able success in removing discrim-
ination from actual war plants, and
equal success in the field Of local
transit systems. He said that the
committee was there 'to examine
the facts as they exist on the tran
sit lines," in Washington, and ulti-
mately to take appropriate steps,
to eliminate any discrimination
found to exist there.
Counsel for FEPC was Mrs. Eve
lyn Cooper, committee staff mem.

counsel and assistant law profess
sor at Howard university. The
company was represented by Ed
mund l.. Jones. Since the union was
not a party to the charges, it was
not officially represented although
several union men were observed
in the courtroom.
Seven points were listed in the
charges of discrimination After
reciting the steps which had been
taken over a two-year period by
FEPC to bring about compliance
on the part Of the company, Mrs.
Cooper proceeded to lay the ground
for establishing the existence of a
real manpower shortage in Wash
ington. Anticipating a plea that
company employees would strike if
Negroes were hired, she declared,
1--WE can't believe this to be true,''
but asserted that the company, if
this is contended, is obligated tc
support it through testimony OF
the operators themselves"
Stating it's position, the company's
counsel insisted that there had al
ways been willingness to comply

PROPOSE HIGHER
EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES
FOR ALABAMA NEGROES

MONTGOMERY, ALA, Jan. 10
(ANP)-A plan offering far
reaching professional training op-
portunities for Negro citizens in
Alabama was submitted to the
state interim committee on consti-
tuition and legislative procedure by
DR.. E. B. Norton, state superin-
tendent of education.
Under DR.. Norton's plan, Ne
groes will have the opportunity to
become doctors, lawyers, engineers
and to enter other special fields.
While no immediate action has been
taken on his proposal, he expressed
hope that some day it will be work
ed out.
DR.. Norton's plan is outlined on
a cooperative system among a reg
ional group of states that have sep
arate educational units, whereby
Negro students would be inter-
changeable among the states
schools of higher learning, with
each state having a college profes-
sional training in one or more
fields. An Alabama student would
be permitted to take postgraduate
work in a regional state and vice
versa under this plan, the educator
pointed out.
For immediate action, Nortor
suggested plan whereby student
who enrolls in a Negro state teach
er's college could attend an out-of
school for postgraduate work no
provided for in the Alabama edu
cational system. Students woul(
receive degrees from the teachers
college and from the out-of-stat'
school, with the state appropriat
ing funds to meet the difference i
would cost the individual to attent
an out-of-state schools.

the result was work stoppage at
the particular training center. 'The
company has no prejudices what
soever against hiring Negroes for
platform service" Jones said in his
opening statement. He declared
that there are now $40 Negroes on
the payroll in other categories.
1t would do us no good if for
every Negro we employed we lost
the opportunity Of getting two
white employees" James stated.
"The company regrets that this sit
uation exists, but it is entirely be-
yond it's control"
A statement in behalf of the citi-
zens committee on race relations
was entered into the records by it's
vice chairman, DR.. Fred Roissing,
in which he said that "any limita-
tion of the use of qualified avail
able workers is an obstruction to
the provision of mere adequate
transportation service" This, he
added, is Inconsistent with the
great responsibility carried in this
community for the full prosecution
of the war"
