LOCATION OF VET SCHOOL

on the need for such school.

Vigorously opposing the location
of the school near his home at

board at open hearing that he
opposed the establishment Of a
commercial enterprise in his neigh
borhood and that the presence OF
80 or 40 disabled veterans attend

turbance.'
The case came before the zon-
ing Board when Mr.. Gresham, a
radio engineer and manager Of the
Hilltop Radio Electric Service, at
tempted to lease the 18th ST., prop
erty and open radio elec.ronics
school to teach veterans radio un
der the CT bill or rights and Pub
lie Law Is which provides for train

Mr.. Gresham told the board that
he had already been approved to
rain veterans by the Federal APP
prentice Trades but that his pres
ent shop at 1926 18th St., north
west. did not have adequate facil-
tiles and since colored veterans
were not permitted to enroll in
white radio schools here, his school
would offer a service to the COM
munity which otherwise would not
be rendered.

which these leaders when they
were children hated their fathers
or formed r-hxations, that is,
they were mamas baby boys.
These hates growing out of NAL
adjusted homes are channelized by
demagogues and turned against
uch groups as Negroes and Jews.
The prosecuted minorities them
selves often take out their aggres-
sions on each other; thus, the color
conflict and the over-indulgence in
religion within the Negro group.

National Office
On Unfair Share

WASHINGTON, D. C. (NNPA)
Decentralization of authority by
the Federal Public Housing Agency
in order to expedite the housing
program brings into greater inn
portance the work Of race relations
advisers in five regions.
The advisers are Clarence R.
Johnson of New York City, George
B. Nesbitt Of Chicago, Albert L.
Thompson of Atlanta, Macco Smith
of Dallas, Texas, and DeHart Hub
bard of Cleveland.
These men serve in regions l to
S, inclusive, and their job is to see
that fair and equitable distribu-
ton of housing units allocated to
their regions are made available
to minority groups.
Advice On Needs
When regional directors of FIJI
PA meet to determine the alloca-
tion of housing units, the race rela-
tions advisers are called upon to
advise on the needs of colored peo-
pie in their regions and make the
necessary recommendations which
will give them a fair and equitable
share of the housing allocated.
If the race relations adviser
feels that colored people are not
getting an equitable share of pub
lie housing in a particular region,
he files a protest with the regional
director and if a satisfactory ad-
justment is not made at the region
al level, his protest is forwarded
to FPHA headquarters here.
How we'll these five men have
done their jobs cannot be deter
mined until the FHPA discloses
how many of the 100000 temper
airy emergency housing units re-
Gently made available are occupied
by colored persons.
Frank Horne, racial relations
adviser to the Federal Public
Housing Agency and member of
the commissioners staff, said that
his office has not yet received
figures on how many units colored
people will get but that he expects
to get these figures soon from the
regional racial relations advisers.
