procedure for the discharge

personnel Is now in process.
Marcus Ray, civilian aide to
the Secretary Of War, Who recent
ly toured Army installations in
the European theater, reported
on his return here that so per
cent Of the personnel to be dis
charged will be Negro soldiers.
Under the procedure set up, per-

The move came after ETC had
sought advice from Civil Service
on how to "avoid" taking the Ne
gro OPA employees in the trans
fer and had been informed by the
Commission that there was no way
of getting around including some
Of them.
Faced with acceptance of the Ne
gro employees, the agency, in a
desperate effort to maintain it's lily
white status, last Tuesday issued
indefinite furloughs" to the entire
group of 10 employees, including
fifty-three veterans, thus violating
specific instructions from Civil Ser
vice. The OPA employees had
been ordered transferred to the
agency with their functions by
President Truman.
The United Public Workers Of
America (CIO), which scored a
clean cut victory over ETC in in
sisting that the letter Of the
executive order be followed and
Negroes included in the transfer,
said last Saturday that it is al
ready preparing to fight the lat
est move of ETC officials. Rep
resentatives of the union said
they felt certain that the fur
lOughs wouldn't stand" The
furlOughs are to take effect Jan.
IL.
1t was also learned that ETC Of
ficials are refusing to meet with
union representatives on the mat
ter on the grounds that there is
nothing to talk about"
The entire situation stems from
the fact that ETC does not want
to break its lily-white policy and
from the realization that some Of
the 10 former OPA employees may
bump" ETC war-service employees
in competition for retention in any
reduction-in.force that ETC may
effect. 1t is estimated that from
ten to twenty white employees may
lose their jobs in such competition.
Under the executive order, the
transfer Of the ITO former OPA
workers was effected Dee. IL.
The executive order provided for
the transfer Of the employees Of
the Financial Reporting Diyi-
sion Of OPA with their function.
1t was understood that the staff
would be cut to thirty or forty
employees by Jan. IL, but Civil
Service emphasized that in max
ing the cuts its lay-OH procedure
would have TO be followed. TeTmi-
nations would have to be based
on seniority, efficiency ratings
and veterans preference.
In order to avoid this ruling FTC

NEW PASTOR FOR
UNION BAPTIST

Rev. Marvin Gibson, recently
pastor of John Street Baptist
Church in Worcester, has ac-
cepted the call to the pastorate
of Union Baptist Church on Main
St., the pulpit of which was pre-
viously occupied by Rev. F. Havis
Davis. Rev. Jesse Harrell, it will
be remembered, was for many
years the pastor of this church
to which he endeared himself by
many years devotion, Rev. Gibson
was for 26 years in charge of the
Worcester Church and leaves

gregation. He is a graduate of
Howard University and also of
Yale Divinity School. He will
enter on his new duties at Unicn
Baptist on Jan. /, 1913. The IN
ion Baptist Church had been
without a regular pastor for
some time. For awhile, during
the summer, there was talk of a
merger with Massachusetts, Ave.
Baptist Church of which Rev. A.
Roger Williams is pastor. The two
churches actually went so far
as to held meetings on the pro-
posal and a committee from each
church was appointed to foymu-
late plans for the merger. After
considerable discussion by the
two committees, it seemed i'm
possible to reach an agreement
and the whole proposition was

Dyed singing and playing

often been called on to play the

Medford businessman who makes

I mighty fine hobby for any
businessman to possess. To sit

powers to help others as well as
