MANY VETS LEAVE JOBS,
BRADLEY Tells CONGRESS

WASHINGTON, Mar. 26- One of
every five discharged servicemen
work at their first civilian jobs only
a few weeks and then quit.
Veterans Administrator Gen.
Omar Bradley told this to congress
today in arguing for continued fed
eral supervision of the U. S. En-
ployment Service.
He told senate labor subcom-
mittee that employment of veterans
is the "chief question of the mo-
ment, not only in their own lives
but in the national employment
picture" He said that to return the
employment service to state control
June 80, as suggested, might "throw
the whole system into confusion"
'The labor force at the present
time and for months to come will
be extremely mobile" he said. "It

TRAIN FOR SPECIAL
Duties, SAYS lANIER

WASHINGTON, Mar. 26 (ANP).
R. O'Hara Lanier, newly appoint
ed minister plenipotentiary to Lii
IBERIA, was the guest speaker at the
Capitol Press Club luncheon.
Mr.. Lanier did not talk on his
new assignment, but rather left
with newsmen the message that it
was their duty to educate Negroes
to take more interest in special
areas which would provide greater
fields for employment to stress the
unusual jobs Negroes hold to serve
as an inspiration for others and to
impress upon young Negroes the
fact that the greatest demand to-
day is for persons with some skills.
He told his listeners that people
of foreign lands were eager for
trained people and would accept
Negroes if they were trained with
out reservation. This was especially
true in countries like Yugoslavia,
Czechoslovakia, and Poland.
Discussing the change in the
south's agricultural economy, DR..
Lanier told of the Importance of
Negroes acquiring skills in agricul-
tural machinery operation. He said
that when the Chinese sought help
in rehabilitating their country S
agriculture, the Chinese were will
ing and ready to accept Negroes,
but the administration could find
none qualified. This was true in
other employment situations.
Negroes vocational lacks also
were discussed and Importance OF
paying attention to work, absentee
ism and attitudes were listed as i'm
portant details to be considered.

WAR CORRESPONDENT
BEGINS CR055-(0UNTRY TOUR

CHICAGO, Mar. 27 (ANP)-|
Enoc P. Waters, whose war report
ing dispatched some of the most in
formative stories from the South
Pacific, left here last week on a tour
which will take him to 81 communi-
ties in 27 states. Travelling for his
paper to gain first hand knowledge
on conditions of minority groups,
especially Negroes, throughout the
country, Waters will write a series
Of articles to be published concur
rently with his trip.
Recently returned from 80
months overseas as war CORES
pondent in Australia, New Guinea,
the Philippines, Japan, Okinawa,
and other places, Waters new tour
is similar to one he made through
the south in 1943. Articles written
at that time won wide praise includ-
ing recognition by Thomas Sane
ton, editor of The New Republic.
On his new survey, Waters will
seek to learn how the war affected
Negroes economically, socially and
politically, how they are adjusting
to the confused and uncertain days
of reconversion, and what various
authorities think about the future

certainties and inefficiences at
tendant upon the transfer (of
USES) ;. be postponed until the
emergency placement of recently
demobilized veterans is passed"
Bradley quoted recent war de-
partment survey to show that 20
per cent of an estimated II, 100000
discharged servicemen quit after
working a few weeks on their first
peacetime jobs, and he described
their unemployment as an "acute
emergency"
Bradley did not explain this quick
turnover in veteran employment,
but VA spokesman suggested that
many servicep'en take certain jobs
temporarily to tide them over until
they have made up their minds
what they want to do.
Bradley also recommended that
Cd the federal government con-
tinue indefinitely employment aid

ployment offices, and (2) treason

states handling unemployment be-
fore they become eligible for federal
funds.

Our present attitude Is unas-

the conditions which entitle us
to all the rights, privileges and

In order, however, that In the
national interest the Nation may
retain full control of it's Capital
we waive those rights and powers
which are inconsistent with that
control. And we petition Con-
gress to empower itself to grant
to us when we are fit such of
those rights and powers of the
citizens of a State as are con-
sistent with national control of

Questions and Answers
On
National Representation
For the District of Columbia
(Sepenth of a SeriesJ
Why Not Demand State Of Columbia?

Question: If you are entitled
to full statehood, tohy do you not
ask for admission as full
fedged State?
Answer: Because there is not
the slightest possibility of secur-
ing it. Because it is not for the
welfare either of the District or
the Nation to propose it, unless
national representation for the
District cannot be obtained in
any other way.
The mere suggestion of state
hood for the District and sur
render by the Nation Of munich
pal and State control of its
Capital brings upon us threats
of Reputation by the Nation OF
financial equity in dealing with
a self-governing Capital and
even of removal from Washing
ton of the seat of Government.
We assume that national con-
=
troll of the Capital through
Congress will not be surrendered,
and as long as this control is
retained the District cannot be
a sovereign State. We do not
seek to wrest control Of the
Capital from Congress or to re-
duce the powers of Congress In
any particular. We ask only to
be made a small fractional part
of the National Government
which represents the whole Ma
ton, the District included, In
exercising power Of exclusive
Legislation over the 10 miles
square.
