3. Segregation has been

A. A total of 45 qualified
Negroes have been appoint

dition. Mrs. Lois Lippman of
New York City has the dis
tinction of being the first Ne
gro woman ever to serve as
a White House secretary.
8. Racial discrimination
has been effectively banned
on Federal contract jobs by
the Presidents Committee
on Government Contracts.
The President has estab-
lished firmly that the policy
of the United States Gov
eminent is to insist on equal
opportunity in employment
when public funds are ex-
pended. Since all tax pay
ers contribute to such tax
funds. they should share in
its benefits when expendi-
lures are made.
We, as a nation. can never
compete in quantity with the
labor force which exists be-
hind the iron curtain. But,
we can, by developing the
abilities of every segment
of the labor force, more than
make up for this deficiency
and quality. The normal
growth of the albor force
will not achieve defense and
civilian production goals un-
less racial and national mi
norities are an integral part
IF the regular work men,
bers will our maximum pro-
duction be achieved.
The President, recogniz-
ing this, and determined
that the Government, under
the present Administration
would do all in its power to
achieve this Indignation,
formed the Presidents Com
mittee on Government Con-
tracts, Vice-President Nixon
was appointed to head the
Committee which reports
directly to the President on
its progress.
The purpose of the Pres
ident's Committee is to lead
and coordinate the enforce
ment of the nearly forgotten
anti-discrimination clause.
which has routinely been in
serted in all Government
contracts for the past 10
years. It's enforcement has
never been attempted in any
significant way. The major
aim of the committee is to
remove this clause from the
"fine print" category and to
give it meaning. substance
and significance.

ton. D.C.)
Address By Assistant Sec'y.
of Labor, J. Ernest Wilkins,
at a Republican Rally
When the founding Faith
ers set forth in the Declara-
ton of independence that
"all men are created equal
and are endowed by their
Creator with certain alien
able rights -, they de-
fined the essence of a revo-
lutionary free government.
When they labored hard
and long and finally formed
the Constitution of the Unit
ed States, they founded the
means whereby free govern
ment could be protected.
Theirs is the creed which
We put forth to the world
it is the backbone of our ma
ton. 1t is the one thing, the
essential thing which we
have to offer to the world.
The concepts Of individual
liberty and the equal status
of men have made this ma
ton unique in the world
family. When the victims of
Communist slavery look at
us today. they look partic-
ularly for evidence which
proves that we back up these
words with deeds.
Abraham Lincoln once
said, before he was elected
the 18th President of the
United States. that the ques-
tion which the people of his
era had to decide was
whether or not the Negro
was a man. He went on to
say that if this question was
answered in the affirmative,
no group Of fellow men had
the right to deny him the
individual liberty and equal
status which is guaranteed
by the Constitution to all
men.
Ninety-four years later,
Dwight d. Eisenhower, soon
to become the saith Presi-
| dent Of the United States,
said: There is discrimina-
ton. This crusade is pledged
to use every single item of
leadership and influence it
has to eliminate it. 1t intends
to enforce the full Constitu-
ton. not part of it..
This was the Presidents
pledge. How we'll has he
succeeded in carrying out
this pledge?
During the past two years,
the Eisenhower Administra-
ton has done more for the
Negro citizen than has been
done since the days of Abra.
ham Lincoln. II has done
this by recognizing the me-
cessity of first of all setting
the Governments house in
order. BY eliminating all ele-
ments Of racial discrimina-
ton from the activities OF
the United States Govern
ment, it has set a precept
and an example which the
nation can follow.
The President stated il
this way: 81 am for wipine
out every inequality of op'
portunity. And l am fol
starting to do that right ir

as in every other operation

Today's surplus wheat stocks,

American bakers and housewives
are paying the highest prices for
-four recorded at this time of

This fact is pointed out by E.
E. Kelley, Jr., President of the
American Bakers Association,
commenting on statement by
Congressman Clifford Hope of
Kansas that the price of bread
has gone up although farmers
are getting less for wheat than
they were in January 1913.
Pointing out that there is more

eye, Kelley said:
THAT January 1913 price was
;he highest in 81 years and it
lasted less than a month. 1t also
IS interesting to note that the
earryover of wheat into the new
crop in 1898 was less than 200
uill.on bushels. None of it was
