OREGON SENATE
|O.K.'S SUBSTITUTE

SALEM, Ore. = CAMP = A
Substitute fair employment pract-
ices measure was given the green
light by the senate labor and
industries committee here last
week in a five to two vote.
The measure would be admin
stored by the state labor depart
ment with the assistance of an
advisory committee.
The original measure, authored
by Senators Richard L. Neuberger
and Thomas E. Mahoney, both of
Portland, provided for the admin
stration of the law to be handled
by special committee. They
were the two casting negative
votes.
The approved measure prohibits
employment discrimination on the
grounds of race, color, creed and
national origin or ancestry. It's
adoption rested upon the conten-
ton by Senator Eugene E. Marsh,
McMinneville, that the labor de-
partment could handle the job
for 5000 for the biennium rather
than the $4,000 provided in the
original bill for a special comit-
tee.

Substitute FEPC Bill
Reported Out DO Pass

STATEHOUSE. Salem, Ore. =
The Senate committee on labor
and industries reported out two
of the most controversial meas
ures before the senate Wednes-
day.
The substitute fair employment
practices act was reported out do
pass" by five of the seven MEM
bers of the committee. The bill
was introduced only last week
as a committee measure. It was
offered as a substitute for one
introduced the first week of the
session and which bears the
names of 10 Democrats and 5 Re
publicans as sponsors.
The substitute bill, its sponsors
claim, is patterned largerly after
the New York act.
Organized labor has branded it,
however. as a "watered-down YER
sion of the original FEPC bill"
The other measure which was
reported out of committee was a
memorial calling on congress to
repeal the Taft-Hartley act and
enact adequate labor legislation
in its stead. Action ON the me-
mortal came only after several
attemts to amend it to gain edo
pass" report had failed.

Gretchen am Spinnrade" was
the most appealing of the three
that came first. The fourth was
the famous "Erlkoning." This
famous Schubert inspiration is
more than song. 1t is legendary
fantasy and poignant drama out
lined in the most effective music
possible Every concert artist, al
most, has attempted it, but none
with more success than Miss An
derson.
The "Erlkonig" was, perhaps,
the high point of the concert.
And yet, after that, Miss Ander-
son came back to sing the great
dramatic soprano aria, Pace,
Pace, Milo Do from LA Fora
del Destino" with such beauty of
tone and such dramatic fervor
that another high point was
dCnltNtu.
The second part of her program
was no less delightful, but lighter
in character She introcude to
many of her listeners the charm
ing Might of Ways Unknown by
Charles Critics and sang also such
eox,o,.;tas &c nvoraIr'e "Conpa NV
Mother Taught Me-" Negro Spir-
ituals: "Were You There?", "Oh,
What a Beautiful City, "Trampin
and Roll Jerd'n, Roll,' arranged
by Burleigh, Boatner and Hall
Johnson, were appealing.
Her many ancores ended with
the Schubert ave Maria. Franz
Rupp, was the perfect accompan-
| list.

HERE'S ANOTHER
STORY, GREAT
EMANCIPATION
BY Alvin White

NEW fOhh = (ANH) - BOSS,
all the nice pictures and stories
honoring Abe Lincoln move me,
really they do, but here's an Abe
Lincoln story never before told
= wanna hear it?
Back in the days of the old
WPA and the depression, my
friend Ed Lewis, was photographer
for the Daily News the second
colored photographer to work for
daily Eds headquarters was
the YMCA, whicr at that time,
harbored a lot of fine folks. Ed
was sort of proud being the
second colored photographer ON a
daily.
A call came for Ed on February
IL = to make picture of Abe
Lincoln's statue up a city college.
A colored kid was to be used
for the human interest angle.
Ed took the problem to his
good friend, "Shief" Norman Cobb,
disabled vet of World War l and
Boy Scout leader. 1t was merely
that Chief take Ed up to the
Campus in his car and in return
for the favor Chief and his favo-
rite boy scout were to pose in
the picture.
All that was lacking now was
the necessary wreath and the
News had made no provision for
this most important prop.
Loading Jackie, the scout in
the car, Ed and Chief proceeded
to Seventh avenue and made a
tour of florists shops. They came
across just the sort of wreath that
would be good for the occasion
but it was being sent to a funeral
at seven.
Ed explained the situation most
persuasive, and the florist agreed
to rent him the wreath for one
hour provided he paid two dollars
in advance. This Ed did.
Up at the monument, the photo
grapher set the scene. He posed
Jackie, placed the wreath leaning
over in an excellent position, and
had Chief to stand at attention
and salute President Lincoln.
1t was natural that passerby,
and there seemed to be an I'M
usual number that afternoon, stop
ped to gaze in admiration at the
devotion of those colored New
Workers in placing a wreath on
the great emancipator's monument
day ahead.
Ed sensed the situation that
would develop and whispered to
Chief, MAN, when l shoot this
picture, you grab that wreath and
run like everything" Chief snick-
cred and whispered the word to
Jackie and all was set.
The cameraman started getting
his focus and distance and it
seemed that the further away he
was the better he liked it. When
he finally got the range, he had
one foot on the cars running
board. A binding flash lit up the
gloom around city college and
Chief shrieked, Run Jackie"
Chief leanedover, snatched the
wreath and ran for the car as
fast as the wreath and his crutch
es would let him travel.
In amazement ire crowd started
yelling stop tief'' And started
to give chase. But chief and
Jackie made the car.
Afterwards, Ed and Chief hur
ried to the florist so the dead
mans wreath would arrive or
time for the funeral. It did and
the culprits went back to the
"Y" when Ed had dispatched
his plate to the office by special
messenger.
The next day the News had q
wonderful touching scene of Chief
Cobb and Jackie placing a wreath
at Lincoln's feet But for years
none of the trio yentured up to
city college especially in the
