At the close of World War II
one of the nations largest oil COM
panies awoke with a start to find
itself on the brink of real peril.
The Company had failed to make
adequate provision for the repla-
cement of it's most precious asset
the indispensable know-how en-
bodied in its top management. The
key executives had reached an age
when the wear and tear on the
human machine made it certain
that, without provision for trained
replacements, serious descriptions
would occur.
The situation that faced the oil
corporation faces the City of Cleve-
land, of East Cleveland and every
suburb of our great city. They
have no orderly, systematic way
of recruiting, training and assign

Bus Stop Complaint
John Hammer of Brewster I'd.
filed a complaint against the
trampling his lawn by children
(up through fourth graders) who
use a school bus stop in front of
his property. Mr.. Leist explained
that such stops, when possible, are
made at vacant lots, but that no
vacant lots are within a reasonable
distance to the stop needed in nthat
neighborhood, without making it
necessary for the children to cross
Monticello blvd. He also said that
any school bus stop close to a resi-
dence inevitably meant complaints,
despite efforts of teachers to urge
the children to be careful.
Conventions
The board granted permission
for DR.. L. L. Myers, principal of
W. H. Kirk Junior High School to
attend the National Association of
Secondary School Principals at
Milwaukee, Wise, February 18th

sociation, Columbus, March 27th-

Salary increases, fire alarm sys-
TENS, new teachers, we're on the
agenda of the East Cleveland
Board Of Education's February
meeting, Monday evening.
On the question of salary in
creases, action was deferred pend
ing further study of the boards
financial situation. DR.. o. ]. Korb
indicated that this study would
be made soon. The action followed
the submission by the Teachers
Association of the following recon-
mendations.
1. Correct existing inequities
among teachers who have had
16 years or more teaching ex-
perience in East Cleveland.
2. When teachers attain tenure
they should receive compensa-
ton for any additional degree
beyond the Bachelors Degree.
3. In line with the platform of
the National and Ohio Educa-
tional Associations which advo-
cate differential of more than
two to one between maximum
and starting Salaries, we feel
that the maximum should be
increased to $500, as of Jan
uary 1, 1854. (The maximum
now is $5650).
1. In line with the aforementioned,
we feel that each teacher in the
East Cleveland system should
receive an additional increment
of $3.50, effective January 1,
1854.
Since Superior School Building
houses the classes for the Hard
of Hearing, the State Fire Marshal
has ordered a combination fire
alarm installation in that building.
It will include a light signal as
we'll as the bell signal system al
ready in use.
In view of the fact that with
September it is planned to trans
fer some of the Hard of Hearing
classes to Prospect Elementary
School, the board will make a SINH
lar duo installation in that fire
alarm system this summer.

were hired for the first semester of
this school year and are being re-
tained for the second semester and

careers with September.

In a statement TO tho press the
group said In discussing some
reasons for its formation:
There Is obviously too much 10.
sistencc TO Negroes In the trade
unions, There are only four or five
carpenters and fewer concrete
men and bricklAyers out OF $500
people, Something must be done
In an organized manner 20 COM
bat the union barrier, The men
who are already In the union have
pledged their unyielding support
to those with the ability and de-
sire TO crack this dlagracsf'Il UNI
ion practice,
There IL also a feeling that too
much Of the Negro business Ia
siphoned into the hands OF "Dyna-
miters" and "aharpleS" who take
gross advantage Of the Negro
home owner and taxpayer, This
organisation Ia dedicated 10 smash
the erroneous belief that Negro
tradeEmcn are all "Jacklegs."
This belief Ia not without
foundation due to the fact that
people hire incompetent individ-
uals To do work that can only be
done by highly skilled craftsmen.
This will be an organization
that viii have all the crafts that
are available anywhere and win
only endorse those who hRYe pro-
ven by long experience that they
are capable techniciRna,
This Ia an open invitation 60
those who have businesses and

they may be Of greater service 20
