Bartlett Asks Secretary Wilson to Hire Eskimos To Man Arctic Radar Stations

FAIRBANKS - Calling upon the Secretary of Defense to hire Alaska Eskimos to man Arctic radar stations once they are in operational status, Delegate Bob Bartlett said he has expressed a belief to the Defense Secretary that adoption of such a hiring policy would result in maximum efficiency.
 "Eskimos are intelligent, they are good workers and they are highly patriotic citizens" Bartlett said. 'Once hired, they will not long to return to a former home in the States. There will be no morale problem. They will want to remain right on the job. That is where they live. That is where they want to be-"
 The Alaska Delegate said he be- lieves the stations would be kept at the highest possible peak of efficiency if the workers neces- sary for their maintenance are in digenous to the country.
 Tt is obvious" Bartlett said, ''that certain technical personnel will necessarily be required at the stations. Doubtless military off, cers will be in command and there will be need for soldiers for protective purposes. However, civilians should be employed wherever possible and from every standpoint Eskimos will be found better suited for that kind of work in that part of the world. If ser vice personnel is to be utilized 100 per cent in the staffing of these stations, serious problems of nor ale will inevitably occur. It is mighty hard for a boy from the States to be so completely away from the kind of life he has known.
 "On the other hand, the Eski- mos in most cases have never been anywhere else and labor turnover will be practically nil if my suggestion is followed by the Defense Department"
 Bartlett said he has urged the Secretary of the Interior and the Commissioner of Indian Affairs to cooperate in this program and he has also requested the assistance of Gov. Heintzleman and William Olson, Area Director of the AL aska Native Service.

most precious asset, time, and de-
lay your entrance upward into the

LINCOLN UNIVERSITY,

How a northern community Of
25,O0O population has set about the
task of erasing racial discrin1ina-
tory practices within its borders,
will be told by Normand R. Poier-
ier att he Headliner Banquet, April
90 on the Lincoln University cam
pus. The community is Pottstown,
Pa, and the project is called the
Pottstown Plan.
Following the May II Supreme
Court decision outlaWing school
segregation, Mr.. Poirier, staff writ
er for the town daily newspaper,
the PottstoWn Mercury, was as
signed the job of finding out how
much segregation and discrimina-
ton existed in the city of Potts
town, an average northern small
city.
He studied the town for several
weeks and came up with a series
of seven articles titled, Mister
James P. Grow, Esquire" which
the Mercury published. The series
won the National Brotherhood
Week Award and has gained for
Mercury the Award for Significant
Contributions to Better Human Re-
lations from the Lincoln University
School of Journalism. The latter
award will be presented at the
Headline Banquet.
From the Mercury series Of ar
ticels, grew the Pottstown Plan,
initiated by group of citizens who
have formed the Pottstown Com
mittee on Human Relations. 1t
asks that every group in town -

Many Pieces Go

An average home in the United
States will contain from 1000 to
1000 pieces of lumber, large and
small. Each species used in the
home has peculiar qualities and
functions to perform For example,
Douglas fir is the nations most
popular framing lumber. Lumber
must add stiffness, insulation,
strength or pleasing appearance
and is the most versatile of all ma

Getting
Along
BY LAUREN WHITE

NEW YORK, (GlobaD - Since
President Eisenhower has signed
the bill authorizing pay increases
for all military personnel, the mill
tary service should attract and hold
more capable individuals. Those of
us who are adjuncts to American
life-those who are left out of Sac
economic set-up and at best ar9-
only marginal WOrkers-can Seri-
ously consider the opportunities the
military service offers. The lowest
possible pay new recruit can re-
ceive is S155.1O a month. After six
months service, his pay is raised
to S162.50 per month, plus susten-
ance.
This is a great Improvement over
the days when a new recruit re-
ceived only S21.00 per month. Ten
years ago, recruits were paid the
staggering sum of $4,000 month
for risking their lives to preSerS
their country. A young fellow who
hasn't made up his mind as to
what he wants to do in life, would
do we'll to consider what the serv-
ice offers. From rates Of pay now
in effect, it offers more (for the
tenth mani than private business
does.
A master sergeant receives
$3501O a month plus food, shelter
and medical care. How many civil
lians with the qualifications of a
master sergeant are earning the
equivilant of $3.50 per month ana
Of course, colored
Americans will meet the same type
O fprejudice in the armed services
that they meet in civilian life.
There are still many people in this
world who are neither honest
enough nor intelligent enough to
judge men by their worth.
There will be incidents like the
onew hich occurred when the Mid
way visited Capetown. Non-white
personnel will be placed in positions
in which they will doubt the. exist
ence of the democracy they are
to be fighting for, Top
brass will demonstrate to the world
that they are incapable of practic-
ing what they preach. Further,
non-white personnel will not get
the promotions they deserve. But
in spite of all this, there is good
reason to believe that the armed
offer opportunities for
colored Americans. The program of
in the armed services
IS moving along faster than that of
civilian business, and young
Negro might actually face less
prejudice there than in civilian life.
