NEW YORK-(ANP)-W Dan
Burnley as managing editor and
columnist and Joe Louis as fea-
tured columnist as bait. the New
Age, the New York Age to the

The New Age has taken on mod
ern typography styles for its head

ably with its rival. the Amsterdam
News. with sc pages in it's tabloid
edition.
Surprise columnist is Joe Louis.

porarily. Louis is offering 800 to
the person who contributes the
winning name for his column.
The beginning OF possible feud
between New York's two colored
papers was sounded off In Dan
Burley's first Clothes Line column
in the Age. 1t was caused by the
printing in the Amsterdam News
, of Back Door Stuff, a column orig
mated by Burley in Chicago, now
written by Allan Mcmillan. Bur-
ley wrote in part:

Dan Burley alone as thousands of

Clio SAYS CIVIL
RIGHTS CAN
WIN IN DIXIE

WASHINGTON-(AN P)-Recom-
mendations OF the Presidents
Civil Rights Committee can be
made effective in the South, ac-
cording to Operations Dixie" a
clio Southern organizing drive
which has been working in the
Southern states for two years.
In a report recently made to the
executive board of the clio, this
drive pointed out that organized
working men and women in the
south regardless of race, creed,
or color, and by so doing have
wiped out racial discrimination in
labor unions and have prevented
In pay and work
inf conditions.
Eve do not merely preach; we
practice democracy, the report
said. I'VE unite workers in the
south to act together on basis
of full equality. We are commit
ted to the view that our demo
cracy will never come to full
flower until discrimination against
Negroes and all minority groups
Is erased from our national life"
The southern union membership
has doubled since the advent of
Operations Dixie. When the drive
began two years ago there were
about 100000 Clio members To-
Gated in the southern states, to-
day the number exceeds 100000.
Exactly what proportion of this
membership is Negro is undeter-
minable as the union keeps no
break-downs according to race.
1t was learned from CLIO head
quarters that Negroes are integra-
ted in every local where Negroes
are employed. There might be
some all-white locals because Ne
groes are not employed in some
southern industries. In such in
stances there is nothing the union
can do about this. 1t is the job
of the union to organize employees
in a plant regardless of color. The
only instances where the union
has any control over the hiring
policy is in closed shop industries
or where there are hiring halls.
There are few CLIO closed shops
and only one union located in the
south which operates hiring halls,
the National Maritime union loca-
ted in New Orleans and Savannah.
In every state throughout the
south workers organized in the
CLIO are joining together in their
union meetings. These meetings
are unsegregated and are often
presided over by Negro officers
elected by predominantly white
local membership. There is not
a day that passes that we do not
win a new victory for human dig
nifty, freedom and democracy in
the SOUTH" declared the spokes-
man.
1t was reported that organizers
were often arrested when this
drive first began and union meet
ings were prohibited under res
trictive ordinances. Largely
through legal tests, initiated and
financed by the CLIO, many of
these laws and ordinances were
ruled to be unconstitutional abb
judgments of freedom of speech,
press and assembly.
The existence of a labor union
in the south has improved the
economic status Of the Negro

YOUNGSTOWN FIRM,
UNION COOPERATE
TO UPGRADE NEGROES

YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio - (ANP)
= With the cooperation Of an ALL
union. the Poland avenue Of the
Youngstown Foundry and Machine
compeny has worked out a post
war program promoting Negroes
to positions in every section of
the plant.
Although the FEPc was in ope-
ration during the war. this plant
upgraded very few Negro workers.
At one time the area War Man
power commission had to investi-
gate the situation at the plant.
Since the war. however, the
story is different. For example the
| firm has three moulders in action
and is training four Negro appren-
tees. Throughout the war the
plant hired only one colored mould
err.
The union, tn e International
Moulders and Foundry Workers of
North America, Local 1876. had
something to do with this change
in policy It recommended that
the firm should train its own
moulders rather than import them.
From this suggestion the firm be-
gan to train and upgrade its col
ored workers.
The three moulders are Ben
Clinkscale, Madison Clinkscale and
Henry Madison. The apprentices
are Ernest Fowler, Walter Flippin,
Thomas Boswell

An Honor TO
His Race

Not everyone may be aware
that the assassination of Count
Bernadotte placed at the head of
the United Nations representation
in Palestine an American Negro
of distinguished ability. He is
Ralph ]. Bunche, formerly an
athlete at the University of Cal
ifofhia at Los Angeles, and a
career man in the American State
Department That one of his race
should occupy so important post
in United Nations councils should
be an inspiration to his own peo-
pie and a source of qualification
to all his countrymen.
