Through braille, he was able to
complete a high school education.
After graduating he sold magazines,
going from door to door, and then
worked in a box factory in North
Carolina during the war.
His friends in the shop, where he
has been working for about month,
report that with the aid of cane
he walks very well, rarely hesitating.
He lives at 234 Evans lane, Alex

DR.. C.L. Barnes
Heads Drive For
johnson Center

DR.. C. L. Barnes, prominent
local dentist, churchman and civic
leader has accepted the leadership
of the drive for funds to carry on
the 1947 work of the William
Johnson Bethlehem Center.
Commenting on the drive, DR..
Barnes said:
In a recent meeting Of the Off
Gals and friends of the William
Johnson Bethlehem Center, at sos
North Parish Street, / accepted
the offer to act as chairman and
direct the effort to raise the
money for the 1946-1947 budget
which has been set up for carry
ing on the program of this insti-
tuition. Perhaps most people in
Jackson now know something of
the work and usefulness of this
center as it relates itself to the
vital social, moral, religious and
economic needs of Negro children
who more or less live on the
underprivileged side of life. But
permit me to give briefly the OBJ
jectives set up as the work of
the William Johnson Bethlehem
Center by those who are best fit
ted to know the friends and inter-
ested people of the community as
a whole.
According to the record. the
first influence brought to bear for
definite action to meet the growing
perils of juvenile delinquency
came from the city officials who
made particular reference to con-
ditions in north central Jackson.
Several meetings were held be-
tween members of the Galloway
Memorial Methodist Church and
Christian people of the colored
race to determine what might be
done to curb the growing delin-
quency. AS result of these
meetings plans were made to es-
tablish a community center for
the Negroes of Jackson.
In 1887, the 10Th of March, the
operation of the center with one
full time worker became a fact,
under the supervision of a Board
of Directors, composed of men
Jackson advocate. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1939-current, 1946-10-05

and women of white and colored
races.
There is not time nor space
for more of the history of this
institution but on the question of
the vital needs of the services it
is rendering daily, under the train
ed supervision of Miss Lena Mae
Rust, who is serving very effici
emily under the authority of the
Woman's Division of the Board
of Missions of the Methodist
Church, it is worth knowing that
the work has grown to greater
proportions by the year until it
is now serving we'll above three
thousand children and young peo-
pie in the various departments
and the present quarters are in
adequate and many are turned
away daily.
AS you are hereby requested
and urged to support the cause of
the William Johnson Community
Center through the authorized
agents who will call on you for
at least, the same support you
have given in the last year and
more if possible, remember that
we are living in a new day and
new spirit in which men every
where of all walks of life might
we'll ask themselves, what can |
do, what must / do with my life
to make it count for the most?
This new spirit places human wei
fare above personal advantage
and makes the physical and spirit
ual well-being of the entire COM
munity a public responsibility and
challenges the individual to meet
the need of sacrifice fearlessly in
order that we may have a better
social order. If someone does not
call upon you, your contributions
may be sent to the center, sos N.
Parish.

Thomas, industrial relations Sec
rotary of the National Urban Lea
que, how entry Of colored workers
into the building trades could be
stimulated.
"We've urged the national ALL
building trades to accept as many
Negro apprentices as possible, and
they have promised cooperation"
said Wyatt, "but apparently this
is a local matter for the local
unions to handle"
The recent war did more to ad-
vance the economic position OF
colored people than any other
event in the history of the nation.
Leroy w. Jeffries, assistant dir
ector of the department of indus
trial relations of the National Ur-
ban League, said here last Thurs
day.
Speaking at a seminar Thurs
day afternoon on "The Negro
Worker One Year After VI Day,
Jeffries asserted that colored
workers were employed in a great
er variety of occupations than
ever before = particularly in man
ufacturing, white collar, technical
and professional occupations.
Since VI day the high level of
national employment has kept the
colored workers position relative
ly stable, but any substantial de-
crease in the country's economy
might have severe repercussions
and "black out any and all employ
ment gains made during the past
six years." the speaker continued.
Colored people stand a good
chance of maintaining and increas-
ing their present employment sta
tus, Jeffries said, if high level
of national employment is main
tanned, if federal fair employment
legislation is enacted, if the pro-
gressive forces of labor, manage
ment, government and the public
are marshaled into a unified force
for industrial peace and eff we be-
come realistic about employment
of Negroes to certain job strait
fications and employ them solely
! on the basis of their ability to do
the job"
In a symposium last Thursday
morning on "Mobilizing the Com
munity to Meet its Housing
Needs, Frank S Horne, adbiser
to Mr.. Wyatt, declared that the
problem of urban housing for col
ored people throughout the nation
is that of "too many people with
too little money crowded into too
few houses and not enough living
space"
Describing the activities Of
Wyatt's office in attempting to
solve the nations housing problem,
Horne pointed out that, while sur
veys had revealed that the average
Jackson advocate. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1939-current, 1946-10-05

veteran could not afford more
than $43 a month for rent or
$500 for a new home, the aver
age colored veteran would be able
to afford even less.
"In fact" Horne went on, zone
might roughly estimate that of
the approximately one million Ne
gro veterans who served in the
armed forces, scarcely 10 per cent,
or 100000 Of them would be in the
market for houses built at present
COSTS"
The housing problem of colored
people at the problem of poverty
and space restrictions growing out
of traditional racial discrimina-
tion," Horne asserted. cit is the
problem of the racial restrictive
covenant and the resultant ghetto.
1t is the problem of spreading
blight and slum living which be-
come associated with race instead
of the underlying economic and
social causes"
The indictment against those
who create and maintain the racial
housing ghetto is "long and in
eliminating" Horne declared. The
blight on buildings in these areas
is reflected in breakdown of the
fiber of the people; these slum
islands "bedevil and thwart the
city planner intent on urban de-
velopment," he said.
Among basic considerations in
solving the problem, he continued,
were: Clear definition of needs;
housing for minority groups COM
parable to that for other groups
in the community; avoidance in
reduction Of land area for colored
housing; equitable use of colored
labor in housing construction, and
marshaling of the full resources
of the racial minority community
in support of both national and
local programs.
Jackson advocate. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1939-current, 1946-10-05

directives are needed to solve this
housing problem of minority
groups.
sympathy and understanding
on the part of every member OF
every community in this country
are needed. There must be de-
termined effort to see that minor
ity members gets very simple
thing a fair break.
"And a fair break doesn't come
just from an edict from Wash
ington. 1t requires something
more than to issue a proclama-
ton which says that henceforth
everyone will get a decent break.
1t can't be accomplished by cele-
brating National Fair Break
Week" with luncheon meetings,
radio talks and advertisements in
the newspapers. The only place
a real fair break for minority
veterans canbe achieved is in the
local community.
"The Veterans Emergency Hous-
ing Program places squarely upon
the shoulders of local commune
ties the job of solving local prob
lens. 1t is the job of cities and
towns to eliminate local bottle
necks, to see that housing needs
of all groups in the community
are met, to see that new homes
are built on we'll planned sites.
"The core of the housing prob
lem facing Negroes is, as has
often been pointed out, more liv-
ing space. The G. 1. Bill of
Rights, and it's government guar
antee on loans to veterans will
mean little to the Negro veteran
unless he can find a site for a
home he wants to build. Finding
this site for him is a serious prob
lem, and a real challenge to every
community.
''This does not mean that the
federal government is unconcerned
about such matters. 1t offers all
of its resources to help private
enterprise and local government
and local groups in solving these
difficulties, but the National
Housing Agency has no intention
of usurping the rights or duties
of private business or local gov
eminent.
at is not hard to say that all
racial and religious groups, that
those of low income and of high
income, should all get a fair
break in housing. But it is not
easy to make these professions of
good intentions become a reality.
| That calls for the ending of the
deeds of omission as well as the
deeds of commission that have led
to discrimination in such basic
/ things as the chance to have a
decent place to live. 1t requires
| persons and groups Of persons who
are willing to undertake unpopu-
lar jobs.
at calls for new thinking, for
throwing off old habits and pre-
JUDGES to make way for new
! ideas"
