DELEGATES ASK FOR
EQUAL TREATMENT
FOR MINORITY VETS

Eighty delegates from fifty IA.
tlonal organizations. at the Ma.
tlonal Action Conference on Min,
orlty Veterans Problems Friday
July II, unanimously endorsed the
Joint proposal Of five veterans
groups delegation lay before Pre-.
sident Truman charges of discri-
m1nation under the CT Bill OF
rights and to demand the protec-
ton Of the Department Of Justice
for minority CTS.
The veterans groups who COM
prise the delegation are: Catholic
War Veterans. Jewish War Vet
Grams, American Veterans Commit
tee. Veterans League Of America,
and United Negro and Allied We
terans Of America.
The nomination of the veterans
delegation at the conference that
was called by the American Coun-
Gil on Race Relations, came after
reports were heard from represen-
tatives of the Veterans Admin
stration, the US Employment Ser
vice. and the National Housing
Agency. These reports were i'll the
form Of progress reports on the
recommendations made to these
agencies by the National Emergen-
cy Conference on Minority Vet
Grams Problems held mere April
5 last.

groups, which was adopted unan-
imously by the Conference today,
declared that the reports indicate
little progress in eliminating treat
ment of minority veterans.
Charles H. Houston, conference
Chairman, prominent Washington
attorney and vice-president Of the
American Council on Race Rela-
tions, declared in a special address
at the luncheon meeting of the
conference: Reports we have heard
this morning convince me that in
the main the federal agencies re-
sponsible for the administration Of
the G Bill of rights are not fac
ing up to the task of aggressively
combating discrimination against
Negro, Japanese American, Mex
ican, Jewish and other minority
group veterans. The federal agen-
cies appear to be concerned chief
ly with telling us why they can
not effectively fight dissemination,
rather than going out and fight
ing it. What is needed obviously
is popular pressure on government.
The national organizations here re-
presented should urge their local
branches to put the same kind of
pressure on local offices of the fe-
deral agencies that the Conference
is applying at the national level.
Dissatisfied with the reports of
the Washington agencies, the con-
ference took steps to set UP a con-
tinuing joint council on minority
veterans problems with the parti-
cipation of the so national organ
izations attending the conference.
The American Council on Race
Relations was asked by the con-
ference to act as a clearing house
for the Joint Council.
A resolution passed by the Con-
ference condemned the numero is
attacks on the civil liberties of the
larly in the south, as in the ex-
treme case of Columbia, Tenn. The
veterans delegation to President
Truman was instructed to call on
General and urge the re-
opening and review of the Colum- |
bia case, and prompt action to in
woke the full powers Of the law
against such violations.
