Hammond Mayor
Fights For Jobs
For Negroes

HAMMOND, Ind CAMP -
Mayor Vernon c. Anderson an
nounced here last week that he
would personally see to it that
young Negro men and women in
the city who are qualified will find
the jobs for which they have been
trained.
He has asked that Negro lead
ers compile names of persons who
have had difficulty in getting po-
sitions for which they have the
background and education, but
stipulated that the list be care
DULY screened so that | may be
sure only qualified persons are on
the list"
The mayor became interested in
the question of lack of job oppo,-
tunities for qualified Negroes last
month when he learned that a
young accountant had to take up
a mail carriers job in Chicago
because he was unable to land a.
job locally in his chosen profess
sion.
He insists that his entrance
into the jobs-for-qualified Negroes
field is not crusade" nor is it
politically motivated, since Ham
mond has only 500 colored voters.
"All Pm trying to do is to help
deserving young persons. | do not
favor FEPC which is just sugar
to get these young peoples votes.
The rights which FEPC purposes
are already guaranteed in the con-
stitution."
He plans to use his influence
TO get Hammond employers to hire
/ Negroes.
IF | can open few doors for
/ them, III be happy. | don't pro-
pose to place all Negroes who are
qualified for better jobs, but Iii
do my best. I've advised them
that their attitude is just as I'M
portant as their educational back
ground. They must be friendly
and cooperative if they expect the
same from a potential employer"

Blanche And Florence Fucker, Duo

become well known to large audi

for American Theater Wing dur

concerts, their radio programs
and television programs.
Born only a year and a half
apart and brought up in Brooklyn,
the two sisters began to study the

unique and accidental circum-

NOTED conservation on local farms

Niederfrank emphasized the time

Weed Control Tests
Eliminate Hoe Work

The control of weeds in cotton,
practically eliminating the need
for hoe work, has been accomp-
.ished successfully in a long series
of tests in eight Southern states,
the fourth annual Weed Confer
ence was told. Because producers
this year will be making CONNER
cial tests of the chemicals on their
own farms, the conference has
named a special committee to draft
q guide for the use of chemicals.
The guide will be published about
March Is. The chemical treat
ment of weeds is considered es-
pecially beneficial at this time, it
was reported, because of the ex-
pected shortage of hoe hands in
the cotton fields and the need for
greater than ever cotton produc-
ton.

Airport Brings Industry

When the City of Tupelo passed

FOR construction and expansion OF
Tupelo airport facilities, they may
have cinched the location of the
Rockwell Manufacturing Plant
here. Mayor George F. Maynard
said "The passage of that bond is
sue has proved of great impor-
tance. One Of the first things a

your airport facilities? We would
not have gotten this plant, which
will mean SO much to this area
from an industrial standpoint, had
the issue not passed." Mr.. May

had begun their formal study of
the piano on scholarship with this
musician.
1t was not long after this that
they entered the New York Col
lege of Music to further their
studies, and were again awarded
individual scholarships. Wi h
their interests in.music continually
expanding, many vistas were
opened to them through the med
ium of cello and voice. Blanche
studied cello under the eminent
cellist, Willem Willeke, at Juilliard
School of Music, and Florence
worked with the Metropolitan OPP
era basso, Virgilio Lazzarri.
The purusit of academic knowl-
edge won Blanche a four-year,
Tuition scholarship to New
York University and took Flor
unce through two years OF pre-
/ medical work at Hunter College.
Speaking of this time of their
lives, the Fuckers say they 'sput
in years under the strain that
comes of not knowing what we
were and were not going to be"
However, the force of the piano
proved strongest.
Upon leaving the New York
College of Music the Fuckers be-
gan to experiment on their own
with the two-piano medium. This
medium, with all its possibilities,
so intrigued them that they knew
it would be their professional life.
After further experimenting and
developing on their own the sis
ters continued their work with
arc. essor Hedda Ballon, the noted
Niennese pianist and teacher.
During the war the charming
Blanche and Florence Fucker
played at the Stage Door Canteen,
veterans hospitals and service
camps throughout the country,
and their eager and enthusiastic
ally grateful audiepces at times
numbered as many as 10000 at a
single concert.
Recently the Fuckers were hon
ored by appearing on the program
of the White House Correspond
ents' Dinner in honor of President
Truman.

Government contracts awarded

Still on the job in Juneau is Llewellyn Morris Williams who has been Secretary of Alaska for going on seven years and who. it appears HOW. will complete at least his present term in the office. Earlier this year, about the time the Leg islature went into session and when political caldrons were bub- bling with more than customary violence around the capital, there was doubt that he could long hold onto the job.
 Lew Williams, who was born in South Dakota 56 years ago, hasn't yet the residence requirements for membership in the Pioneers Of Alaska but has been here long enough to put down some extensive roots and to get pretty good idea of the Territory's history, geog- raphy, problems and politicsLes- pecially politics.
 After serving in the Navy dur ing World War I and before com ing to Alaska, Lew put in a leng- thy stint as police and political reporter for daily papers in Ta- coma. Spokane and Olympia, Wash ington, and ran his own weekly paper in Oregon.
 He came to Alaska in 1895 to join the staff of the Daily Alaska En- pire at Juneau, then owned by the late Governor John w. Troy. Four years later he moved to Wrangell with his family and took over the weekly Wrangell Sentinel, now the oldest continuously published news paper in the Territory.
 Lew served as postmaster at Wrangell and was also elected mayor of the town, and after Bob Bartlett left the office of Secre- tary of Alaska in 1944 to run for Delegate in Congress, Lew return ed to Juneau and became the Sec- retary.
 The Secretary of Alaska is re- sponsible for recording and pre- serving the laws enacted by the Legislature and sending copies of them to the President and Con- gress. He also forwards copies of resolutions and memorials passed by the Legislature to the proper persons, issues commissions to mo- taries public, is a member of the Territorial Canvassing Board, and has a number of other routine du- ties.
 The most important function of the Secretary, however, is set forth in the U. s. Code: Tn case of the death, removal, resignation or ab- sence of the governor from the Territory, the secretary shall exe- cute all the powers and perform all the duties of governor during such vacancy or absence"
 As the years of his governorship
