WASHINGTON, d. c. (NN-
PA Requirements for enlist
ment Of Negroes and whites in

equal, it was learned last Mon
day
For some time the Army has
been requiring Negro enlistees
to make considerably higher
scores than whites. II said this
was necessary because it could
not use Negroes who lacked a
high school education.
Last July the Army stopped
enlisting Negroes, because Is or
II per cent of the monthly en-
liStments were colored, throw

portion prescribed by the Gillem
report regulating the status Of
Negroes.
In October court suit BY
Robert Kelly. a Washington high

TO accept his enlistment. Since
then the higher marks have
been required.
The differential has now been
reducedd. White applicants ac-
cepted If they make a score of

cants have been required to
make a score of 80, but this
has now been reduced TO "a. On

regarding the use Of the Senate

Ginnis had told Thomas S.

had previously eaten a sandwich
and coffee there over the OBJ

and had been reported TO Nc

In letter TO the Sergeant at
Arms, Leslie Perry wrote; Last
year the Congress appropriated
$4,000 of the taxpayers money
to subsidize Senate restaurants.
But that is only one of the rea-
sons why Negro citizens should
be free TO use every public and
semi-public facility in the Capt.

humiliation, intimidation, and
discrimination"

his sermon on Personal Respon-

deep going dissatisfaction of most
South Side leaders with the all
white machine ticket, hand picked
by the bosses of the two major
parties.
The protests against the ma
chimes jim crow slate, reaching
across party lines, have encour-
aged the most powerful influences
in the county's Negro communi-
ties to rally to the support of the
newlyformed Progressive Party.
Groundwork for a peoples po-
litical organization to enable pro-
gressive Chicagoans to break the
Superior Court color line and
place a Negro on the county's
highest court for the first time
was laid Monday night at a meet
ing in the Metropolitan Commu-
nifty Church, 400 South Park
way.
THE MEETING of nearly 300
prominent religious, labor, civic,
professional, business, and COM
leaders was called by
Thomas M. Clarke and Miss Ed
monia Swanson, co-chairman of
a South Side citizens committee.
Detailed plans for a solid pre-
cinct organization to smash the
Jim crow machine ticket were
drawn up. Many of the people at
the meeting were regular precinct
workers for the two old-line
parties.
Each person in attendance re-
ceived campaign manuals, pledge
