US. Employment
Service To
Continue Policy

Washington, d. G. - (NNPA)-
The United States Employment
Service will continue to service
discriminatory hiring practices, it
was revelaed last Friday when the
Labor Department made public a
memorandum to all regional di-
rectors of the USES concerning
policy and procedures for hand
ling orders which discriminate a.
gainst minority froups.
Robert G. Goodwin, director of
USES, who signed the memoran-
dunn, simply reiterated policy en-
unciated by Secretary of Labor
Lewis B. Schwellenbach several
months ago.
According to this memorandum
discriminatory hiring orders will
not be rejected, but the employer
will be informed that the best
qualified workers will be selected
and referred to him. Applicants
are to be selected without regard
to race or color. If the applicant
is a member of a prescribed race
or religious group, the interviewer
responsible for filling the order
is instructed to call the employer
and seek an interview for the ap-
plicant.
If the employer refused to a
mend his specifications, the mem
orandum states, ''it should be ex-
planned that in carrying out our
policy of promoting equitable en-
ployment opportunities for all
workers we cannot, as public
agency, refuse to refer any quail
fed worker who wishes to be re-
ferred."
The interviewer is instructed to
explain to the applicant the action
taken in his behalf with the I'M
derstanding that if the applicant
wished to be referred, a referral
card will be given.
The memorandum outlined GER
tain means of persuading employ
ers to eliminate discrimination in
their orders for personal and call
ed on all employers to report
cases of discrimination against
any one group.
Regional and state directors
were ordered to assiin one or
more individuals the responsible
ity for providing technical assist
ance in carrying out the new
program and state directors were
ordered to take immediate steps
to set UP a training program in
local offices to implement the pro,
gram.
Mr.. Goodwin ordered all state
directors to promptly issue the
new field instruction without
change to all local offices under
their jurisdiction, Except in those
States where state laws do not
permit acceptance of discrimina-
tory orders"

Still Grand Exalted
RULER of EIks

Buffalo, N. Y. - j. Finley Will
son was reelected grand exalted
ruler of the Elks for the 25th
consecutive year, by reclamation,
as the 47th annual Grand Lodge
conclave came to an end here last
week. The herd of $4,000 Elks
had taken the city by storm, turn
ing out in a mile long prade,
resplendent with color, pretty
drum majoretts, and bands. Mrs.
Elizabeth Gordon was reelected
grand daughter ruler. In their
business sessions the Elks turned
their minds to the serious prob
lens of today. A resolution in
troduced by Perry w. Howard of
Washington, grand legal advisor,
and unanimo usly passed, called
upon Congress to deny seats in
that body to Senator Theodore
Bilbo and Representative John
Rankin, both of Mississippi.
We're tired of hearing Bilbo
bray and Rankin rant, but we
have got to do something more
than be tired. We've got to put
them out of public life and we
can do it with ballot if We learn
as we fight" declared J. Finley
Wilson about the Mississippi pair.
EDUCATION
Under the slogan, EVERY Elk
Literate," 100000 members of
the Improved Benevolent and
Protective Order of Elks of the
World will tackle the job of bring
ing the benefits of adult education
to the orders membership thr-
oughout the country, particularly
in the Southern states.
The campaign was announced
by William G. Hueston, grand
commissioner Of education, at
meeting of $50 Elk state and reg
tonal directors of education and
their staff members in the audi
forum of Frontier lodge here last
Friday two days before the open
ing of the orders 47th grand
lodge convention.
Announcement of the campaign
followed a full days discussion by
the Elks leaders, who listened to
Dr.. Ambrose Caliver, senior spc-
cialist in the United States Of
flee of education, explaining that
National Negro organization can
lead the way in helping to bring
the U. S. Governments adult ed.
ucation program to millions.
Lieutenant Governor Joe R.
Hanley, spoke in Kleinhans Music
Hall at an Irrational contest spon-
sored by the Elks last Monday
night which was won by Delored
Parker of New Haven, Conn.

presented Hanley cards signifying
the situations of himself and Gov
ernor Thomas E. Dewey as hon
orary vice-grand commissioner of

spectively, in the IBPOEW.

Six characters meet untimely
but well-deserved ends, one of
hem charged directly to Bogart.
The others, who die merely for
story purposes, include Theodore
Won Eltz, Louis Jean Heydt, Dan
Wallace, Elisha Cook, Jr., and
John Ridgely.
Life and death, like light and
shadow, alternate in "The Big
Sleep" as in most of Bogart's
earlier pictures, wherein he was
frequently slain. He used to COM
plain, unofficially, that he was
too often pumped full of lead and
made to die instantly, whereas
other Williams, Edward G. Robin
son in particular, always had time
to talk themselves to glory before
the final fadeout.
But Bogart has come a long
way in his career since those days
and now is scarcely ever required
to be killed at all. He lived and
loved through "To Have and Have
Not" with Lauren Bacall and
winds up "The Big Sleep" very
much alive with the same girl
in his conquering arms. She is
his co-star in the film and also
his missus in private life.

Raoul Walsh, the director, has
been kicking his career around
the film capital since Mary Pick
ford was the Biograph Girl,
which, according to the more re-
liable memories hereabout, was in
1912. Very, very ancient fans
may recall that Walsh portrayed
