Gordon Reward
Money to Go
To Nobody


LOS ANGELES, Aug. 80. GAN
P)-Nobody will get the $1,000
reward offered last February for
Conformation leading to the ar
rest and conviction Of the killer
Of my parents" by Walter l.. Cor
don, Jr., shortly after his parents,
MI. and Mrs. Walter L. Gordon,
ST., were found murdered in their
bathtub.
Mrs. Parthenia Appleby, wife of
the convicted murderer, voted by
newsmen and police officers on
the case as the one who should
receive the award, will not get a
cent, judging by young Gordon's
actions so far.
She has announced that she is
giving up all claims to the money.
Her decision also deprives the two
young police officers who called
for the homicide squad which ar
rested her husband, Wallen B. APP
pleby Of 5000 she had promised
them. In Los Angeles policemen
cannot claim rewards as such, but
the chief had approved of a "gift"
to them.
It seems that a technicality has
kept the woman from the reward.
This is due to a state law which
says a person who claims a re-
ward must swear that he reported
information for the purpose of
getting the money.
In her case Mrs. Appleby had
no knowledge of the reward, and
turned in her husband because of
her fear of him.
Ever since Mrs. Appleby was
named for the reward Gordon has
shown no inclination to pay. He
has used several excuses, and fin
ally called off a conference which
was slated to iron out all ques-
tons of the reward.
In order to start a new life Mrs.
Appleby has dropped her pres
ent name, Parthenia Appleby, and
is now using her middle name and
maiden name. Under her old name
she has been unable to keep a
job because some one always tells
who she is. At the same time, her
mother in the Souths needs money
to finish paying for her home.

How Jim Crow works may be
seen by the difference in Bureau
tactics in parallel situations,
When the Bureau wants to thin
out Negro employees already in
the Bureau it holds competitive
examinations open not only to
Bureau employees but to every
body outside.
When the Bureau wants to
keep out Negro employees from a
category reserved for whites, it
withdraws competitive cXamina-
tons even after they have been
announced If it discovers "A num-
Der of Negroes have applied and
are qualified to TAX, same.
During World War II the labor
demands on the Bureau were so
heavy the Bureau hired hundreds
and hundreds Of workers (inClud-
ing printers. printers assistants
and printers hclpcrs) without
competitive civil service CXamina-
tions. The printers were all white;
the printers assistants in large
number Negro males, and the
printers helpers prrdominantly
cUlorcd women
After the war the printers were
"blankctcd in" as permanent en-
pluyces merely by filling out
forms showing they met the civil
service requirements. They did
not have to take any competitive
examination. But to thin out the
prrdominantly Negro printers
helpers, the women were notified
that before they could be made
permanent they would have to
take a competitive examination,
open not only to Bureau en-
ployccs but to the women in the
whole United States.
On the other hand, Negro men
have never been promoted TO the
journcyman class either as printer
electrician or any other mechanic
or tradcsman. The Bureau has
always conducted apprentice
training programs, Especially for
its printers. Before World War IL
Negroes had never been admitted
to the apprentice training pro-
grams. Then under UPW pressure
the Bureau opened the plate
printers apprentice training pro-
gram TO Negroes; and July l6.
1913 announced an examination
for apprentice plate printers
would be held. About 80 Negroes,
including many World War II
veterans, applied and qualified to
take the examination. For a
moment it looked as If at last
Negroes would get their chance
to start on the long road to be-
come journeyman printers, Then
suddenly the Bureau announced
the examination was indefinitely
postponed
