Members of the Gu policy COM
mittee tabled a resolution that
would authorize work stoppage on
construction jobs if discrimination
against racial and religious min
critics is not eliminated by concili-
alton.
The resolution is one which is
being sponsored by the AFL Bust
ness Agents union and seeks to
utilize labor's influence to elimi-
nate discriminatory practices in
housing The resolution was pre-
pared following a recent incident
in which Jon Matsuo, a Japanese
American was veteran, was denied
participation in veterans housing
project by a real estate firm be-
cause of a racially restrictive COW
enant.
Awaits Outcome
George p. Phillips, Gu presi-
dent, said the motion was tabled
until we see what becomes of the
governors proposals and the mea-
sures in Washington"
Gov. Youngdahl, in outlining his
human relations Program, pro-
posed relief through the courts for
anyone who has suffered from
discrimination and who has ex-
haused all possibilities of concilia-
ton"
The Washington action centers
about proposals to withhold CT
housing aid for construction COW
cred by clauses banning minori-
ties.
The Minneapolis Building Trades
council, representing all AFL con-
struction workers, on Jan. 9. APP
pointed a committee to study the
resolution and recommend action
at the next meeting. The council
reaffirmed the no-discrimination
policy of the American Federation
of Labor and the Minnesota Fede-
ration of Labor.
Presses FEPC Plea
Meanwhile, a plea for enact
ment of a Minnesota fair employ
ment practices act was made Oh
Jan. IL by the governors inter
racial commission in its report to
Gov. Youngdahl.
The report had been drafted be-
fore Gov. Youngdahl came out in
his inaugural message for legisla'
ton designed to eliminate discrim-
ination in employment on racial
and religious grounds and for the
administration of the legislation.

Ceremony at Capitol
Marks Anniversary
OF Susan B. Anthony


The 127th anniversary of the birth
Of Susan B. Anthony, leader Of the
movement for women's suffrage, was
commemorated yesterday afternoon
with a ceremony at the statue in the
Capitol crypt honoring her and two
other suffrage leaders.
Several women's national organ
izations participated in the cere-
mony Honor guest was Mrs. Ade-
laide johnson, sculptor of the statue
which honors Miss Anthony, Lu-
cretta Mott and Elizabeth Cady
Stanton. Mrs. johnson, who admits
she is almost 100," placed a spray
of Gala lilies on the statue.
Representative Robson, RepubH-
can, of Kentucky, chief sponsor Of
the Equal Rights Amendment in the
House, told the approximately rs
women assembled that women today
must work for equal rights under
the law with the same zeal that
Susan B. Anthony worked for suf-
frage for women"
''We won't give up the fight for
equal rights until we win," he said,
because we are in the right and
right makes might
Susan B. Anthony was a pioneer
in the fight for woman suffrage in
this country. In day when women
had no part in the choice of elected
officials, she was one of leaders in
making speeches, organizing parades
and otherwise rousing public opinion
to giving women the vote. She died
in 1906 without living to see the
ratification of the 18th amendment
in 1920 which granted suffrage to
women.
Miss Lorita Dorr, student at
George Washington University and
granddaughter of Rheta Childe Dorr,
author of the biography Susan B.
Anthony, the Woman Who Changed
the Mind of a Nation" placed a
wreath on the statute on behalf
of her grandmother.
Among the organizations which
laid Wreaths on the statute were the

Yug)osIays Defeated
On Carinthia Claim
By the Associated Press

LONDON, Feb. 15.-The four
power Deputy Foreign Ministers
Council overrode Russian protests
today and voted three to one against
a Yugoslav claim for 1000 square
miles of Austrian Carinthia.
Conference circles did not rule
out the possibility that the deputies
might still reach unanimity on the
question.
Indications were, however, that
the Austrian treaty being drafted
by the deputies would not call for
any changes in the border, and
that Feodor T. Gousev, Russian
deputy, would express his disap-
proval of the frontier clause to the
Council of Foreign Ministers in Mos
COW next month.
Mr.. Gousev used two arguments
today in supporting the Yugoslav
claim for the Southern Austrian
cities of Klagenfurt and Villach and
surrounding territory. These were
that Yugoslavia should be rewarded
for her war record and that the
British, by requesting Yugoslavia in
May, 1945, to respect old borders un-
til adjustments were made at a
peace conference. had virtually
promised that the frontiers would
be changed.
Lord Hood, speaking for Britain
said no such promise was implied
or intended.

temporary and could be overcome.
If a man had suffered service
injury or combat fatigue, however,
Gen. Bradley added, the court
should know about it before judging
his case. !
AS for the mechanics of using war
records, he made these proposals:
The records should be studied first
by the court, the prosecutor and the
defense attorney in the judges
chambers to determine what facts
are pertinent. This would prevent
disclosure of information which
would not affect the case but which
would harm the veteran If made
public. Gen Bradley explained that
VA gets much information on the
understanding that it will be kept
confidential. Sources of informa-
tion might dry up If confidential In
formation were broadcast. !
When records are not available in
the city where the case is to be tried,
it would be quicker to request the
pertinent information by teletype
rather than send q large record
across the country.
Gen. Bradley pointed out that
some of the veterans who get into
trouble are wandering around and
it Is hard to keep up with them
Right now. he said, 100000 records
a month are being shipped around
the country. Were the court wants
the full record, he said, I'VE will
expedite them all we can"
AS for the services of VA psychi
artists, Gen. Bradley said that if
mans record indicated a mental
condition, the court could ask that
a VA psychiatrist examine him on
the grounds that he might need hos
pitalization.
The only practical way" of pro-
viding this service, he said, would be
for the psychiatrist to submit
written report which could accom-
pany the mans record. In the
absence of the record, it could be
sent to the court with a teletyped
summary of the mans background
If the psychiatrists had to spend
much time in court, Gen. Bradley
said, they would be "swamped" and
valuable time would be lost from
caring for veterans who come to
mental hygiene clinics for treat
ment.

an-African System
Is Sought by Smuts
BY The Assoeiated Press

CAPETOWN, South Africa, Feb.
l5.-Prime Minister Jan Christian
Smuts said In an interview today
that a United Africa would be one
of the greatest bulwarks of peace
and mainstays of western ciyiliza-
tion.
"a conflict has arisen between
western civilization and other
claimants to its high position, and
we want to preserve this part Of the
world in particular-young, uain-
hihited South Africa-for that civili-
zation," the veteran statesman said.
Visualizing a quite loose but
highly cooperative" pan-African
system, Mr.. Smuts said "consor-
tium of sovereign units on this con-
tinent would exercise profound In
fuence as an international stabi-
lizer."
"Our goal lies somewhere between"
the Federal system of the United
States and the grouping Of inde-
pendent republics In South America,
he said, in reference to his idea Of
pan-Africa-"a kind of federation
which leaves local administration
and state sovereignty to their tasks
