BROTHERLY BEHAVIOR
BY Earle Conover

Finding the combination of

plckings for a thief. Each va
cation time brings for me a
happy combination Of visiting,
recreation, sightseeing, and
possibly a little business.
While you have been read
ing CD this column for the
past five weeks its writer has
ben riding about the country
by train and auto. Certain
memories stand out today.
An automobile trip Of about
1000 miles took US into east
ern states where we saw a host
of relatives and old friends.
Some had not been seen for
years so we were shocked by
their changed appearance. Gray
hair had come out all over the
place, and those "crow foot"
wrinkles at the eyes that tell
tales. owe must have looked
just as ancient, also
Historic Spots
Some of the historic spots
visited include Gettysburg Bat
tlefield, Valley Forge, and the
Lincoln Log Cabin Court
House at Decatur, Illinois. We
felt sorry for the exceptionally
tall squire, Abe Lincoln, who
must have had to lower his
head constantly as he walked
underneath the low beams
there.
Gettysburg is holy ground
for many reasons. Innumerable
statues, markers and imple-
ments of warfare dot the sur
rounding countryside.
Valley Forge brings back
memories of real deprivation
and impending disaster
Barbara Frietchie's home in
Frederick, Maryland, is now a
museum. Whittier's poem has
immortalized her waving an
early American flag from an
upper window in the face Of
passing British troops. A post
age stamp commemorating
this event was placed on sale
there just two days before our
arrival.

Daniel West Says:
In My Opinion

1t is hard to measure the re-
suits of the new laws against
racial or religious discriminat-
ion in employment in New
York, New Jersey, Massachuse
it's and Connecticut, because
several other forces are workin'
in the same direction, good
times, and public setiment.
But these forces are at work
over much Of tn country; the
laws are just in four state and
five additional cities.
A study Of Situation.
In a period Of one to three
years, the difference is really
measurable. Leroy w Jefferies
assistant director of the indus
trial relations department Of
the National Urban League,
has a manuscript of the employ
ment of Negro white collar
workers in privat industry in
Is selected cities.
The rs were cities where the
Urban League had adequate
staff to find out how many
Negroes were employed on Jan
1st, 1913 as white collar work
ers, technicians or profession
al employees, in private enter
prises for profit not counting
those workers in Negro COM
munities.
Half in Four Cities
Half Of these Negro white
collar-and up mployes were
working in FOUR CITIES
ONLY-and the four cities
were in states with anti-discri-
mination laws for employment.
Another third were in Chicago,
which has a city anti-discrim-
ination ordinanc.
Chicago is a special cate,
however, Most of the Negro
white collar workers therr
were clerks in mail order con-
Germs at the edge Of town, VIII
ere they do not meet the public
Chicago had only three Negro
department store sales persons
outside Negro neighborhoods,
against New York's 382 and
little Hartfords 8ol
Omitting Chicago, the four
cities in anti-discrimination
law states have " per cent q
the Negro white-collar and up
workers in all "a cities.
Squeezed Out of Jobs
Negroes do have more edu-
cation, more property, better
health now than they did 20,
80, or 20 years ago.
But they have not yet regain
ed the political power they had
briefly in the late 1905 and 70s
when they had far less prepar-
alton for it. And there has been
a steady drive to squeeze them
out Of one occupation after an
other, and to keep the best Of
the newly developed jobs from
them, except when they are cat
ering to their own race alone.
This has been true North an
South. In some ways it has
been worse in the North, while
unions are stronger
and the Negroes need to earn a
living is less apparent.
The wartime shortage of lab
or made a temporary dent in
this trend, with the assistance
of the federal fair employment |
practice commission. The state
anti-discriminatory laws give
promise to holding these gains,
and making vast new ones
They give promise to bridging
the longtime gap between the
American WORDS about equ
ality Of opportunity and Amer
lean DEEDS.
They give promise Of max
ing the Negro and other op-
pressed minorities first class
for the first tim.
