in Negroes Trades education un-
der the G l Bill.
In Mississippi these were some
$1,000 Negro Veterans of the
World War II. 1t is estimated,
that because of lack of facilities,
both public and private less than
5000 are now receiving Training
under the G I Bill.
In most of the schools, now in
operation, both public and pri-
vate, most of. the training avail
able for Negro Veterans is re-
garded unimportant in preparing
them for livelihood. In most
schools training is in Auto mech
anics, Auto Repairing, Cabinet
Making and Furniture finishing.
Schools attempting to offer train
ing in Carpentry, Brick Laying,
Plastering, Cement Finishing and
other building trades have been
denied approval, and. most of
those already such courses have
found it necessary to curtail or
discontinue all such courses.
While most school established
for the training of Negro Vet
Grams under the G I Bill have
been established by white peo-
pie. the school established or
attempted by Negro and White
people are being confronted with
identical condition In fact, some
whites who have already estab-
lished such schools for Negroes
have been told that they should
have established schools for white
Veterans and avoided difficulty.
The Dixie Trades School open
ed here last June. Founded by
DR.. Martin l.. Riley, who has long
been identified with the teaching
profession in the state and w. G.
Word we'll known former Sawmill
and Lumberman.
The school has a mixed faculty
including graduates from Tuske-
gee and Hampton Institute and
other outstanding Trades schools.

Closing Dixie

Local Negro Veterans protested
the interruption of training of
the last of more than 400 Negro
Veterans, by the local Veterans
Administration, and what amount
ed to the closing of Dixie Trades
Schol here last week.
The local chapter of the Amer
lean Veterans Committee, and the
Veterans Welfare Committee of
Dirie Trades School, made known
their protest, which called for
the immediate re-opening of the
school, and an investigation of
conditions affecting such instit-
ution for Negroes in the state in
kilograms to Gen. Omar Bradley,
Director of the Veterans Admin

Joining in the protest of the

Go Will N Of
File Affiduvifs
Till Convention

Pittsburgh-(LPA) - The CIO
will not file anti-Communist affi-
davits required under the Taft
Hartley law for union planning to
do business with the Natl Labor
Relations Board. At least, the affi-
davits will not be filed until after
the convention which opens in Bos-
ton on Oct. Is, meeting of the
vice-presidents decided here last
week.
This action may result in the
NLRB throwing out approximately
1900 pending CIO cases. In a
strongly worded statement the of
ficials charged that "Some employ
ers, encouraged by the (Taft-H Hart
ley) law have provoked industrial
strife"
ats complete uselessness is dem
onstrated by the fact that employ
ers and unions who desire to con-
tinue their sound industrial rela-
tionship have found it necessary
to expend time and energy in a
common effort to avoid the disas-
trous provisions of the law. In the
interests of peaceful industrial re-
lations and continued full produc-
tion and employment, it must be
clear that the sole remedy is the
repeal of this thoroughly reaction
ary legislation.
"Many of the international
unions," the vice-presidents pointed
out, "have already determined their
policy to be one of endeavoring to
settle their problems thru collective
bargaining, without becoming en-
meshed in the unavoidable machin-
cry of the act. This important is
sue, as well as other problems Gre
ated by the Taft Hartley Act, will
be the subject of continued dis
cussion and consideration at future
meetings of the executive board at
the forthcoming convention"

For Union Shop 20 To |

Madison, Wis. (LPA)-The TIL
boys thought they were smart when
they put in a provision that in
order to have a union shop, ma
iority of the workers must vote for
it in each plant. What they didn't
count on was the experience of
workers who have known both open
and union shops. For example look
at Wisconsin where members of the
Upholsterers international Union
AFL in IL shops voted 20 to / for
a union shop, in referendum votes
counted by the Wisconsin Employ
ment Relations Board since the
Taft Hartley Law was passed.

w Woodworkers
Vote Compliance
With TIL Rules

st. Louis-(LPA)-After several
hours of heated debate, the 18th
annual convention of the Init
Woodworkers of America last week
voted in favor of a resolution call
ing for compliance with the re-
quirements of the Taft Hartley
law which demand filing of "non-
Communist" affidavits by union Of
ficials with the NLRB.
However, delegates made it plain
that they believed the law should
be repealed, and voted an active
campaign to retire members of
Congress who favored the anti
labor law. The union indicated that
it would comply with the law in
order to utilize the services of the
Cancellation & Mediation Service
set up independent of the Labor
Dept.
j. f. Fading was nominated
without opposition for second
term as IVA international presi-
dent. Candidates for the post of
first vice president are: Ernest
Dalskog, from the British Colum-
bia District Council, and AL F. Har-
tung, regional director for Oregon
and former president of the Column
bia River District Council. The in
cumbent first vice-president, Karly
Larsen, did not run. Second vice.
president William Botkin is unop-
posed for another term.
For the office of secretary treas
urer, vacated by j. f. Laux who
is not running again, there are
two candidates: Walter Belka, sec
retary of the northern Washington
District Council, and Carl Winn, a
former vice president from Olym-
pia, Wash.
The convention voted to continue
its fight for a six-day week and
the elimination Of any method of
pay other than an hourly rate.
IVA delegates charged that the
frequency and severity of accidents
in the woodworking industry was
nothing "short of national dis
grace" and approved a plan for
all employer-paid special fund for
safety program, to be administer
ed jointly by the company and the
union.
