Agencies Ready
To Issue More
Dismissal Notes
Must Meet Budget
Cuts by End of
Fiscal Year, June 30
o., lA.A.L V~
By Joseph Young

~ SoSSPH IOun9
The Governments reduction
in-force program was intensified
today as Federal agencies pre-
pared to send out hundreds of
30-day dismissal notices to en-
ployes to meet budget cuts by
the end of the fiscal year on
June 80.
The Internal Revenue Blu
reaus reorganization move
which will result in the firing of
1900 employees. 900 of them in
Washington, was the latest in
the series of f1rings announced
by agencies here during the past
few weeks. The dismissalS are q
result of the administrations
economy program and addition
al budget cuts imposed by Con-
gresS.
The Labor Department during
the last few days has sent
out 300 to 400 layoff notices to
its employees and will issue addi-
tlonal ones early next week. The
department must trim $50 en-
ployes from its payroll, about
400 of them in Washington.
300 Lose Out at RFC,
The Reconstruction Finance
Corp. will fire nearly 300 en-
ployeS here and is currently
sending out layoff notices.
The Health, Education and
Welfare Department must dis
miss 1900 employees, but only
several hundred of them will be
in Washington. Thus far, only
a few dismissal notices have
been issued here, but more may
be handed out early next week.
The National Production Ad-
ministration is continuing its
layoff program and several hun
dred additional employees are
slated for dismissal.
During the past few months
Federal employment has been
reduced by $4,000 jobs. While
the majority of this has been
attained through attrition-not
filling vacancieS-a considerable
number of employees have had to
be dismissed outright. In Wash
ington Federal employment has
dropped by $500.
New Plan Starts July /.
The Internal Revenue Bureau
layof will occur over a period of
several months and the layoff
notices will not be handed out
Immediately. The reorganization
plan goes ntoseffect July t.als
In addition to the Is per cent
cut in personnel here which
will lop off 900 jobs, the
number of district commits
Sioner offices will be reduced
from II to 9. This will eliminate
another 400 jobs throughout the
country. The 81 district collec-
ton Offices throughout the coun-
try will remain open.
Commissioner of Internal Rev.
enue T. Coleman Andrews said
the reorganization, which will
streamline the bureaus oper-
atoms, will effect ultimate saw
ings of S. million a year.
He said. the new program will
permit more enforcement work.
There will be additional agents
put on to audit tax returns, and
consequently tax receipts to the
Government should go up, Mr.,
Andrews said.
The Health. Education and
Welfare Department reduction
in-force notices were distributed
through the departments agen-
cieS this way:
Public Health Service, a net
cut of 900; Food and Drug Adj
ministration, 100; Office of Edu-
cation, so; and miscellaneous, so.

The destruction of the pains
takingly erected nativity scene
which took place sometime during
the night Of December 81, aroused
the entire surrounding community
and white citizens flocked to the
college and joined in helping to re-
store the scene.
The plea for the youths made
by President White was seen here
as the exemplification of the re-
marks made by him after the res
toration Of the scene during which
he said, at was a wonderfully
heart-warming experience. 1--WE

zens of Jackson. 1t has been stat
ed, that, "the Evangelistic Hour"
is the first, only and best program
of its kind ever conducted by a
Negro minister in Mississippi.
The program is currently heard
over Radio Station WRBC each
Saturday evening from Sis to $50
pm. from the stations studios in
downtown Jackson.
In ten broadcasts, Rev. White
has used several of the choirs from
local churches, looking forward to
using others in the future. His
messages have been clear, concise
and to the point.
The program, with its overall
purpose of carrying the gospel
message to people far and wide,
has gained many listeners in the
city and Jackson and elsewhere.
Rev. White stated that the one
big hope for this program in 1858
is that he can get the necessary
support from each listener to carry
on this great work for God, and
feels certain that it is the duty
and responsibility of every true
Christian to help carry the gospel
to a lost world. Defeating him
self to the Masters task, he in
vites you to listen in each Satur-
day evening and to lend a helping
