Workers filing UNEMPLOYMENT
compensation claims in the week
ended June II advanced slightly
to break the downward trend
that began in the week ended
May Is, State Director of Labor
Robert L. Gordon announced to-
day.
! ALTHOUGH S,O0S of the 80 OPT
claimants registered for the week
ended June 5 withdrew their
claims there were TIA others who
filed initial clamis, running the
weekly total for June II to 81 1913
persons filing for benefits under
! the Illinois Unemployment Com
pensation Act" Director Gordon
pointed out. '"This figure repre-
sents the first advance in the
number of claimants filing since
May Is when a similar down.
trend was checked. Except for
these two instances the number
of claimants have tapered off
gradually since the benefit year
began Opril l when benefits first
! became payable on 1947 wages.
CHICAGO CLAIMANTS
| INCREASE
"The upturn was traced almost
entirely to the Chicago area
| where 1858 persons filed initial
claims while 1885 job-seekers
discontinued their claims" Cor
don disclosed. "This left a net
increase of 933 claimants in the
Chicago area out Of the state
wide boost Of 1,166 persons on
the rolls for the week ended
June IL. Vacation layoffs in many
plants and seasonal shutdowns in
certain manufacturing industries
like the shoe, clothing, and con-
fectionery lines are tending to
steady the claims volume, a trend
that may be expected to continue
through the remaining summer
months.
although benefits are not
payable to workers while they
ar con paid vacations" Gordon
explained, "a worker who is not
entitled, by seniority or tenure
with his employer, to a paid va
cation may qualify for benefits
providing he files his claim i'm
mediately upon the beginning Of
his so-called vacation period per
iod and makes himself available
to accept any offer of suitable
work rendered him during such
vacation layoff."

"These props and bromides will
not stand up in 1948 against such
strong gales Of justices as the
civil rights bill, fair employment
practices act, anti-pall tax and
anti-lynching legislation.
1T must be apparent to the
Republican party that in an cleo
ton year the time when the Ne
gro voter is usually cultivated,
and political corn is knee deep
that such props as a story on Mr.
Lincoln and a review Of what
Republican party did for the Me-
gro IS years ago are too frail to
lean on now.
Empty Political Speeches
1.-The Negro voter has learned,
through bitter experience, that
any analysis of the campaign
speeches made to Negro audien-
ces by most candidates on both
the Republican and Democratic
tickets will disclose the fact
that beyond giving the Bible
their cordial and complete APP
proval, taking their stand firm
ly on the Constitution and the
bill OF rights and violently waving
the American flag, there is never
anything in their speeches pledg-
ing them to sponsor or give en-
phatic support to laysy which
would give the American Negro
the full enjoyment OF his con-
stitutional rights. Onthe cont
rary, they give the Negro voter
an overlooking dose Of SO-year
old history which they have sea-
soned with platirrAles or leavened
with just plain bunk.
$50, I say to the Republican
party, my party and the party OF
my father, the Negro voters Of
1948 want to know how GU stand
on the civil rights bill, the anti
poll tax and anti-lynching and
fair employment practices legis-
lation? They want action nOw!"

Washington (SpeciaD IN
formed sources said Wednesday
that despite the threatened re-
volt by Southern Democrats this
year, President Truman is ready
to take a dramatic step in his eff
forts to get his Civil Rights pro-
gram through Congress.
An omnibus "Truman Bill'' call
ing for the carrying out of recon-
mendations made by the President
on February 2 was said to be rea-
dy for introduction in the Senate.
1t was these recommendations that
led to the threatened revolt by
Southerners.
Speculation was that the Pres
ident was holding back the bill
pending mediation efforts.
FOR FRIGHT"
The sources said that the Pres
ident, in sending the measure to
Snator Alben w. Barkley, Of Ken
lucky, the minrity leader, let it
be known that he preferred fell
swoop handling of the problem.
The rumored Truman Bill calls for
Establishment Of permanent
commission on civil rights, joint
Congressional committee On civil
rights and a civil rights division
Of the Department of Justice.
Strengthening of existing civil
rights statutes.
A federal anti-lynching law.
A federal anti-poll tax law.
A commission to prevent dis
elimination in employment be
cause of race, creed, religion or
ancestry.
An outlawing of Jim Grow rules
in interstate transportation.
An equalization of the orportu-
