|Hilll1lall's Last
 Message To Negroes

Chicago-The late Sidney Hill man, head of the CLOS Political Action Committee until his untime- ly death in July, has left a last message to all Negroes in his art icle Labor Is Fairer Than Busi- ness To Negroes" which he wrote for the September issue of Negro Digest.
 "The CIO recognizes that the problem of Negro workers is iden- tical with the problem of all work CTS, of whatever race," states the article which was prepared by Hillman shortly before his sudden passing.
 "The CIO does not think on terms of fairness" the article continues. Fairness carries with it a patronizing connotation.
 "The CIO thinks in terms of equality"
 Mir. Hillman's militant message forms part of the round table dis cussion of the subject "Is Business Or Labor Fairer To The Negro" in which Phil Hanna, Chicago business columnist states the case for Business.
 MT. Philip Murray, CIO Presi- dent, is the other Labor proponent.
 "There are no Jim Crow laws in CIO unions," MT. Hillman's posthumously published message declares. "Because the CIO consti- tuition asserts that it was organ ized to bring about the effective organization of the working men and women of America regardless of race, creed, color or national ity.
