Mr.. Ellis stated that he was an

would conduct his campaign on

had no place in political cam

He did not refer directly to

Dear Joe
By JAMES L. HICKS

Dear Joe:
Are you a member of the 1920
club?
It's not an exclusive organiZa-
ton by any means and a lot Of
the boys who are members don't
like to admit it but, if the truth
must be told, Joe, the club is be-
coming more and more popular
every day and, strange as it may
seem, most of the guys who are
joining it have no desire for mem
bership.
You see, Joe, you don't have to
get voted into the 1920 club. It's
a lot easier than that.
All you have to do is look for
a job for 81 weeks and pray you
don't find one while you collect
the 20 bucks a week unemployment
insurance which the government
allows US vets.
A lot Of people are complaining
because the 1920 club is becoming
so popular. They say veterans are
turning down good jobs and riding
the government payrolls as long as
they can draw the 500 per.
That's not true, Joe, and here
are official figures to prove it's not.
At the end of February, 1,131,-
1914 veterans were drawing unem-
ployment checks, but only 10000
Of them had been on the unemploy-
ment payroll for the entire 81
weeks.
Although about one in every four
of the 10,6l0,000 men discharged
as of March IL had at one time
or another drawn unemployment
compensation, official figures show
that they only drew the 20 bucks
for about six weeks and then went
to work.
Figures don't lie, Joe, but the
people who are accusing veterans
Of riding the government payrolls
are doing a lot of cockeyed figur-
ing to arrive at such conclusion.
Any man who has been overseas
for two years or more will tell you
that it takes a veteran almost six
weeks to get acquainted with his
family all over again to say moth
ing of going out and finding a job
on the veterans merry-go-rOund.
Some Of the people who complain
about the 1920 club are the very
ones who are causing the member
ship of the club to swell. They are
the guys who offer a veteran
twenty-five bucks a week and ex-
pect him to jump for joy.
There was a time, Joe, when 20
bucks week looked mighty good

compulsory provisions regarding
Government employment. He be-
lieves the Government should set
the example by eliminating dis
elimination in its employment prac-
tees, which it is requesting pri-
vate employers to do.
Incidentally, Senator Walter F.
George, Democrat, of Georgia, con-
cedes that there should be no dis
elimination in the employment
practices of firms working on Gov
eminent contracts as well as in
the employment practices Of the
Federal Government itself.
A. Philip Randolph, co-chairman
of the National Council for a Per-
manent FEPC, saw Senator Taft
the other day and disabused his
mind of the belief that the Chavez
bill-that's the measure which the
recent tilibuster prevented from
coming to a vote-would require
hiring on a quota basis. Ran
dolph is marshalling his forces for
another drive for passage Of the
FEPC bill, but he believes that the
Calendar Wednesday" strategy is
fantastic"
The Republican and Democratic
nations committees recently filed
with the Clerk of the House state
mentS of receipts and disburse-
ments, as required by law. Two
items in each statement are in
triguing. One of the Republican
items was payment on September
% of $1,000 covering expenses of
Ernest T. Weir, Pennsylvania mag
nate. The other was repayment to
Weir of $4,000 advance. Weir
is the reputed angel of the Ma
tional Council of Negro Republi-
cans, which Joe Baker, of Phila-
delphia, heads. Is he or isn't heH
One of the intriguing items in
the Democratic statement, which
covers the period from January l
to December 81, l945, was a con-
tribution of 1888 made on October

The other was a disbursement on

period from October 8 to November
Enoc Waters, the Chicago De-
fender war correspondent, is the

posed on interracial recreation.
There were white and colored
American soldiers and White Wacs
in the Philippines. The white Wacs
were comparatively few in number
But there were plenty Of Filipino
women
Filipinos are Malayans, who are
considered offshoots of the Mon
golian race and not Aryans within
Hitler's definition.
So, the Army solved the problem
by having dances for white sol
diers on one night and for the col
Ored soldiers on the next night. The
white soldiers would take the Flip
inc girls to their dance, and the
next night the colored soldiers
would take the same girls.
When it came to use Of the swim
ming pool, the white soldiers used
it one day and the colOred soldiers
the next. The pool was then emp
tied, cleaned and refilled, and was
used by the Wacs the next day.
On Sundays there was a mixed
splash-party-for white soldiers
and Filipino girls.
Ian Ross MacFarlane, a radio
commentator over local station
WWDC, the other night said:
Zone million Negroes were quail
flied la by their draft board; but
when they came back home with

they're not la; they're not 4-F;
they're not 5-F; they're just N. G.;

Yes, that's the unfortunate man.
ner in which some of these honor
ably discharged veterans are re-
garded by employers. Now, that
just isn't playing the game on the
level, and we hope that due to the
focusing of national attention on
this fact this week that many po-
tential employers Of these men will
see in them the opportunity to en-
ploy as fine a type Of American
as Uncle Sam found that he was in
the war effort"
St. Paul recorder. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1946-03-29

may still look good today, but
if you are living in one Of the larger

That's a rugged way to talk
about our American way of life,
and a lot Of people will say that
you should take the job anyway
because it is permanent, but here
is an argument for them on that
score.
Right now the Supreme court has
before it a case which contests the
right of a veteran to stay on his
old job over the seniority Of a nom
veteran. The Justice Department
is contending that a veteran has
the right to get his old job back
and stay on it at least a year before
he is laid of, but the CLIO say it
amt so.
When you sailed away, Joe,
everybody said your Job would be
waiting with no strings attached,
but now that you are back we have
to call on the Supreme Court to
interpret what everybody meant
when they said that. All that kind
of stuff helps to swell the rolls Of
the 1920 club.
The veteran is well on his way
to becoming the forgotten man
and if he is to be forgotten, he
might just as well join the 1920
club and have 500 a week to re-
member the world by.
Don't take my word for his be-
ing the forgotten man, Joe. Take
the word Of Major General G. B.
Erskine, administrator Of the Re-
training and Unemployment Admin
istration, who said last Tuesday at
Oklahoma City:
THE advisory center is so i'm
portant, if properly operated it will
solve a majority Of veteran and
community problems. You may
realize the seriousness of these re-
marks if | tell you that of some
$4,000 communities in America
only about 1000 have established
advisory and information centers
for veterans"
Maybe the other 1000 communi-
ties forgot they needed a center.
Don't join the 1920 club unless
you have to, Joe, but if it is forced
on you be a good member, pal.
Yours in the service,
JIM.
