Housing Units MdY
Be Completed
II Funds Allowed

The authorization for a $685.
100000 deficiency appropria-
ton for the governments vet
Grams emergency housing pro-
gram, recently approved in
congress by both the house and
the senate, means that the
Federal Public Housing auth
ority probably will be able to
complete most Of the projects
in this region which were cut
back last November because of
lack of funds, Jesse Epstein,
regional FPHA director, said
in Seattle recently.
Before FPHA can move ahead
on the incompleted projects,
however, both the house and
senate must approve a bill for
the actual appropriation of the
funds, Epstein pointed out
FPHA anticipates that ap-
preparation of the $35, 500, 900
will assure completion of all
projects which were at least 10
per cent complete at the time
the cuts were made, according
to Epstein. The original request
was for $50,000,0 900 to permit
completion of all projects ma
tionally.
I'VE can't be sure yet just
what competitions the recon-
mended appropriation will per-
nit, but we are hopeful that
The Hardin tribune-herald. [volume] (Hardin, Mont.) 1925-1973, 1947-06-19

it will enable us to fulfill most
of our commitments with col
legeS and cities in this region.
since most of the projects were
underway at the time the cuts
were made, he explained.
Rising construction costs
and the necessity of keeping
within the funds appropriated
by the last congress forced the
cuts. Fortunately there weren't
too many of them-only 1000
units were cut back( as against
10,980 units completed in this
region-but it was hard on the
communities where the cuts had
to be made"
Units which were cut back
and which may be restored il
the appropriation goes through
include:
Coulee City, Washington, ID
units cut back out of a total OF
AZ.
Oregon: Garabaldi, "a units
cut out of a total of 48; Wheel

UNIVERSITY RADIO GUILD
A letter commencing the Uni

scribed program, "Crossfade, War
and Peace" a contribution to the
UNESCO inter-cultural exhibit held
in Paris last November, was re-
ceived this week by Ruth Swanson,
KUOM production director.
The transcription was submitted
as an example of the type of pro-
gram broadcast by U. S. education
al radio stations.
Written by Mel Bolster, Radio
Guild member, "Crossfade, War

LABOR

BR. 1895 - Ell. 1871

In the telephone strike there are
25 Twin City Negro workers q.
most are members of the North
western Union of Telephone Work
ers. The main issue is wages.
Wonder how many are active
on the picket line, how many are
union stewards.
Harry Brown, Hector Vassar,
Nellie Stone, Brutus Cassius and
Mert Ewing just came back from
the Hotel & Restaurant interna-
tional convention which was held in
Milwaukee. Word is that we
had 269 Negro delegates out of
1900, and that our group put
through a resolution setting up an
FEPC in the hotel and restaurant
industry. Good work. E. But
the resolution will have no effect
unless the members put it into
action.
Incidentally, Ernestine Wright of
665 is a member of the FEPC COM
mittee within that local. Let's
give her plenty of support. q.
How about an FEPC committee in
the telephone unions?
James Kinney just Joined the
gang at General Mills one Of the
first in the mechanical division. .
The Minneapolis Urban League

Minneapolis Urban League, will be
the featured speaker at the May
Day celebration at the Northern
District committee of the Work
mems Circle at the Labor Lyceum
.. will talk on Negro workers and
their security in labor unions.
The affair is open to the public, will
start at 8 p. m. sharp. The
date: May 1st. We should have
a good showing.

and please believe me when | say
ruff. When he came back to his
corner and l splashed water on
and tried to tell him to keep up
the good work, all he could say
was hits hard, don't he?" The
rest of the fight was really one
sided, with STEEL beating the
other lad all the way.
MELVIN HAMMOND has turned
pro In the boxing world and is
really sticking to training. He
trains out at Potts and goes the
limit with all the pros down there.
You can almost bet that when his
first fight comes up he will really
be a drawing card, with fighting
brothers like Mat, David and Clar-
ence. OH l almost forgot the lit
tie fighter, Richard.
Phyllis Wheatley is now holding
its annual boxing show and all the
little gremlins are out to win, and
II | know 1t will be a mad show.
Why not come down and watch
them. All the fighters are little and
really a show, and for such
tiny fellows they can really go;
the gloves are so big that they
weigh their hands down, and some
Of the smaller fellows have to punch
each other around. But their spirit
is high and they're a reat bunch
of guys, that don't fear a bloody
nose, and have no use for cries.
It looks as II election is just
around the corner and the leaders
Of America will take the hmelight.
Yes, and along with the talk Of
election comes the talk of why
more Negroes do not vote. | just
wish some of the people that say
it's too hot, or feel little sleepy
could hear some Of the kids around
the ages from 16 to 20 talk of
elections. Many of the persons in
the voting age think that the cats
in the teen ages are nothing but
jitterbugs and social status crazy
imps, but l am sure that il more
older persons were as concerned
about voting as are some Of the
teen-agers, the voting polls would
be filed with votes. They would
vote for men who are more apt

is the next boxing date for Tony
Stecher. Harry 1.-THE fight
and wrestling ticket oficial)
Hirsch tells me that AcevedO Is
the best fighter our Jackie has
ever fought with the exception Of
Willie Pep. -. Hirsch has watched
Acevedo work out at Potts no lesi
than Ave times. He also gives
warning not to be surprised u
the unexpected happens tonight
Graves is still my choice
without any ifs or butts. VIII!
even Graves predicts that the fgh
won't go 10 rounds (2) -. Th'
two best guesses are that thu
house will gross about $4,000 AM
the house will be a near sell-out
Tip: Graves favOrite puncl
tonight will be a left hook.
Look for it to do the trick.
Il is our sincere wish that tonight
fights will be above average AM
that the fans will be pleased.
Otherwise the fans will say neve
again (until the next show 70
a month anyway. But Don
r Get Me Wrong-It's A Great Game
