Vets Employment
Service Opens Up
Policy Making Jobs

(NNPA)-Employment Of colOred
people on policy-making levels
within the Veterans Employment
Service Of the United States EN-.
ployment Service was disclosed by
Perry Faulkner, YES chief, in a
recent conference here with Ma
tional Urban League officials.
Faulkner announced a plan for
hiring additional colored person
mel under an expanded YES pro-
gram which authorizes assistant
and field assistant employment rep
resentatives working in coordina-
ton with State USES offices but
responsible to the YES in Wash
ington.
In a subsequent letter to Leroy
W. Jeffries, the Leagues assistant
industrial relations director, Faux
ner stated that a cOlored assistant
veterans employment representa-
tive was already working in the
District Of Columbia, while other
field assistants are on stats in
Ohio, Michigan, and New York.
He said also that as soon as it is
Cea "ihle, under present and pro-
posed budgets, I'VE should like to
have in those states where it is
deemed necessary Negro assistant
veterans employment representa-
tives" to serve on state veterans
employment stats.
In a re-statement Of the Veter-
ans Employment Service non-dis-
elimination policy, Faulkner said,
"A veteran is defined for US by
law and we do not have any inclina-
ton to look at it in any other light.
A veteran is n veteran, be he White,
Negro, or Of any other race"
Under the present YES plan,
there is one veterans representative
in each state, which is broken down
into areas, with assistants and
field assistants allocated to the
state according to veteran popula-
tion. These assistants are respon-
sible for making contacts with en-
ployers in the interest Of veterans,
and maintaining regular contact
with employers and veterans or
CARNATIONS with a view to keeping
them advised Of veterans available
for employment and the veterans
advised Of opportunities for en-
Nlovment.
The work of the colored staff
members is integrated with that
Of the offices with which they are
attached. Appointment to the jobs
is made through Civil Service.

Canada Lee POrtrays White Role Successfully in Play

Boston, Sept. 26 - (UP) - The first attempt of Negro to portray white character on the American stage was hailed as a success today by critics who witnessed Canada Lees debut in ''The Duchess of Malfi."
 Lee, wearing special white makeup, took over the role of the villain, Daniel de BQsola, in yester- days matinee and impersonated a white man in a near perfect man. ner.
 Because Lee took over the part on short notice when Mckay Morris dropped out of the show last week, critic Cyrus Durgin of the Boston Globe made no attempt to analyze his performance other than to say his voice and makeup offered no clue to his Negro origin.
 Elliot Norton of the Boston Post found Lee played the part well, though not perfectly.
 Except for the shape of his nose, which is flat and broad" Norton said, there was nothing in his ap- pearance to suggest his race and nothing in his performance. He proved that 8 colored man can ef- fectively impersonate a white on the stage just as whites have been im- personating colored for centuries"
 Lee himself was jubilant over his success and said the experiment opened wide new fields to the Negro actor. T hope this has been long step toward my being known as &C., tor Canada Lee - not Canada Lee, Negro actor" he said.
 Tn the past Negroes have been relegated to funny roles Roles that
