FIRST MILESTONE OF FEPC
In November our Commission
of FEPC shall have been fully
organized a year. What of the
harvest? Job discrimination is
on the wane, prejudiced ads have
practically ceased through the
remarkable cooperation of pub
fishers and the advertising man
ayers of the daily and weekly
newspapers of Mass. Many en-
ployers voluntarily are for the
first time giving qualified work
ers Of the minority groups a
chance to be hired. Commits
sioner ElWood S. McKenny has
combed the state telling the peo-
pie, especially of our group, what
the law is and what are their
rights under it. So far, so good.
The Commission has done well.
We thrill with pride as we see
our race in the large department
stores in white collar jobs.
The Commission is certainly
helping to teach the public to
do the right thing. While this
will go on I'm hoping to see the
Commission try to teach the pub
lie to enjoy the right thing. This,
know, lies beyond the boun-
diaries of their legal duties. All
Of us having to pay monthly the
gas, the electric, the telephone
bill are struck by the truth that
/ these public service corporations
that force their hands into our
| pockets monthly may toe the le-
1 gal chalk line, but are altogether
strangers to enjoying the right.
For primary righteousness would
demand they give jobs to those
from whom they take so much.
To begin to have a few faces,
the darker the better, in these
public Offices in the Dudley
Street area, and m the Western
Unon, and on the Elevated line
street cars and buses would be
a great boost for the work of the
Commission. Uptown l25th
Street business section of New
York hardly more than a decade
ago offered the black man moth
ing but the broom and mop.
| What change! Black folks

The human eye is the Big Gate
to the mind. Education by this

proportionate number of col
ored employees in the Dudley

vice agencies, would be a show
window of the excellent work be-

Every teacher has his method.
Variety is the spice of life. But
some of the methods are a cause
Of profound thought. I am n
Spired to say this by the infor-
nation given me by a student
that he is forbidden by his
teacher to pronounce any novels
as they are indicated in our die
tionaries, that the sung vowel
must not sound the same as the
spoken vowel. I am simple en-
ough to believe that singing is
adorned, sustained speech. My
purpose in singing is to set lyrics
before my audience so that they
may know what the song is
about. Most of the singers on
radio do that same thing. With
the exception of songs in for
eign language, I can understand
almost every word that is sung
on the radio. True, it is claimed
by some that our language is UNI
singable. To them l say - listen
to radio If our language is UNI
singable, accept the challenge
and make it singable. In view of
the hundreds who ARE singing
it every day, I cannot see the
sense in distortiug the novels.

also should be certain that the

well protected from native Hit

as Hitler succeeded in Europe.
But how long will our luck hold?
