In many areas of federal
service including the U. s. Post
Office, Negroes are found in
increasing numbers. In the In
ternal Revenue Dept, Veterans
Hospital, Veterans Administra-
ton dozens of Negro employees
are found working in clerical,
administrative and executive
positions.
Too few Negroes, both male
and female, take city Civil
Service examinations in both of
the Twin City communities.
More emphasis on the advan-
tage of municipal government
employment should be by CON-
munity leaders who have influ.
enee and the ear of the people.
In Minneapolis the fire de-
partment is still lily-white and
only a single Negro has been
appointed to the police depart
ment in the past four years.
There have been no new Ne
gro members appointed to the
st. Paul fire department during
the past IL months - this is
true also of the police depart
ment.
A number of st. Paul people
have clerical jobs in various
city government departments.
There has been a slow increase
in this field in clerical areas.
A Negro attorney, Stephen
Maxwell was appointed to the
position of assistant county at
torney by Ramsey county at

in st. Paul history.
At state government level
major appointments held by
Negroes have not been increas-

as was true through the G-l
bill right after World War II
there are a growing number Of
students at college level who

There is a great need for col,
lege scholarships for Minnesota
Negro youths. An anonymous
donor has established a scholar
ship fund at Phyllis Wheatley
settlement House in Minneap.
oils which has aided several
Negro students. More such
scholarships are needed. There
should be a regular campaign
to have Negro high school
youths try for the large num-
Der of scholarships available to
high school seniors in all Min.
nesOta high schools. Such a
campaign, of course, should be-
gin while the students are still
in junior high school. Students,
at least many of them, must be
sold on the value of good marks
and good scholarship as other
of the more solid values of edu-
cation.
In this area the two Urban
Leagues their Guilds, with as
sists by Halle Q. Brown Com
munity House and Phyllis
Wheatley Settlement House
could do a real job. And there
is no reason why church con-
gregations cannot have, as a
part of their budget, a college
scholarship for some deserving
son or daughter of a member of
each congregation.
Fraternal groups, Leg i on
posts and social clubs could
also set up scholarships.

perform creditably. This record
gave impetus to the postwar
Indignation of Negroes in in
dustries where they were not
considered for hire before. In
deed, before the war was over
a number of firms, desperate
for labor, changed their en-
plOyment practices to include
members of the Negro commun-
ity.
The Federal Cartridge Corp,
operated Twin City Ordinance
plants non-discrimination en-
ployment policy before the war
ended attracted nationwide at
tention. President Franklin
Roosevelt was so pleased with
the Indignation of Negro work
ers into the plant work force
that he named Charles L. Horn,
president of Federal Cartridge,
to the wartime federal FEP
Commission.
Even before the war ended,
scarcity of man-power, and a
new awareness of the quality
of the majority of Negro work
ers caused a much wider use
Of this labor.
After the war the job oppor-
tunities for Negro workers were
accelerated both by the war
time record, and by agitation
for permanent federal fair en-

and campaigns for and passage
of local and state FEP laws.
In 1860 approximately 20
years after confinement to nine
principal job categories in Min
nesota, the Negro worker may
be found in over 100 different
types of jobs from the lowest
unskilled occupations to highly
technical posts in a number of
important industries.

In the past IL months the

ship held by Judge L. Howard
Bennett. The latter appointed
by Gov. Orville Freeman, was
defeated in a close race. The
reason for his defeat can be
traced to the fact his opponent
was endorsed by Republicans,
in a move engineered by state
COP chairman Ed Viehman,
and the failure of the Mime
apolis daily papers to endorse
him (they played neutral) plus
the fact that East-side labor
wards where Bennett, a DFL
adherent should have run well,
piled up good votes for his OPP
pOnent. In the heavy Republi-
can 18th and Seventh Wards,
Bennett received surprising
support, when many Repubi-
cans ignored the Viehman in
spired endorsement to cross
the party line, and vote for Ben
nett because of his fine record
as a judge. Another factor gen.

of the Minneapolis Negroes

Railroads Formerly Biggest
Employer
As late as 1880 Negro work
ers in Minnesota were, largely
concentrated in service occupa-
tons with the railroads and the
Pullman Co., the largest two
employers.
The Minnesota Negro suffer
ed disproportionately during
the depression era with 81 per
cent Of the Minneapolis popula-
ton working on government
projects such as WPA or direct
relief.
st. Paul Negroes, during this
period, had 81 per cent on fed
eral projects and direct relief.
The Twin City Negro in the
U. 8. Postal service and those
who worked for the railroads,
were able to maintain their fam
lilies in relatively good fashion
during the period, which has
been labeled, the depression era.
Until the defense period in
1941-42, the Minnesota Negro
was still confined to roughly,
nine different job categories
out Of a possible 200.
With the coming of the de-
tense contracts in the area, no
tably the huge Twin Cities Or
dinance plant, operated by the
Federal Cartridge Corp, the
Twin City Negro received his
first big employment opportuni-
ty.
Negro workers numbered L.
400 in this installation, per-
forming duties in 81 different
job elassifications during the
peak production period. This
was o big break-through for
community Negroes who had
heretofore, been SUBSTANTIALLY

tiles in the Twin Cities.

Capitol Site Vote
Will Be Item
On August Ballot

JUNEAU, Up - A total of H.
673 qualified voters from 10 of
the states "a election districts
were among persons who signed
petitions seeking vote this fall
on whether Alaska's capitol should
be moved.
Secretary of State Hugh Wade
announced the figures today in
formally setting August 9 - the
date of the Alaska primary cleo
ton - for vote on the question.
Notification of the date for the
special election was contained in
letter from Wade to State Rep.
Earl Hillstrand D-Anchorage) and
State Sen. Thomas Stewart Cd
juneau, who served as co-chair-
men of the initiative petition for
relocation of the capitol.
A Capitol Site Steering Commit
tee proposed the question last
year at Anchorage, calling for
voter enactment of a law requir-
ing location of the capitol in the
so-called "Cook Inlet-Railbelt"
area by 1865. The initiative calls
for committee Of five, appointed
by the Governor, to select the
exact site.
Juneau, capitol of Alaska since
1906, joined the move to obtain
necessary signatures on the petit
ton in order to bring the ques-
tion to vote. But supporters of
the proposal here made clear their
action was aimed at getting the
initiative killed when it came to
vote.
Since then, the Juneau Cham
Der of Commerce has announced
plans for a statewide drive to
win support for retention of Ju-
neau as the capitol.
Hillstrand, one of the leaders in
efforts to relocate the capitol,
seeks approval of the proposed
initiative on grounds Juneau is
not centrally located and thus I'M
able to serve adequately as the
seat of government in the new
state.

Korean Mobs
Renew Attacks
On Government

SEOUL, South Korea, UP -
Koreans renewed their demonstra-
tions against President Syngman
Rhee's government tonight, draw
ing tear gas and gunfire from
security forces.
1t. Gen. Song Po-Chan, army
chief of staff, announced one
demonstration was killed and six
wounded by gunshots that re-
pulsed mob attack on the home
of Vice President-elect Lee XII
Poong, chief target of the demon
strators.
Warning shots that troops fired
into the air turned back $50 dem
onstrators who attempted to
march on Rhee's palace.
Troops backed by tanks lobbed
tear gas grenades into throng of
about 5000, led by 200 college
professors, which chanted de-
mands before the National As
sembly building for the resigna-
ton of the 85-year-old president
and Lee, whom many claim won
the vice presidency through fraud
in the March Is election.
The violence was the first in
Seoul since last weeks "bloody
Tuesday" riots that took 1870 lives.
The renewed demonstrations in
effect were noisy popular rejec-
ton of President Rhee's plans to
bring political peace to South
Korea.
Rhee has romised to run the
country as nonpartisan presi-
dent, surrendering his leadership
of the Liberal party, but he
showed no inclination to give up
his autocratic powers. He is under
heavy criticism for failing to call
new elections.

''This Is The Last

WASHINGTON, LR - French
President Charles De Gaulle told
Congress today the great powers
are facing their ''last moment"
for making start on nuclear dis
armament. Failure to disarm, he
said, would doom mankind.
De Gaulle concluded his sum-

The two 69-year-old Allied
leaders spent an hour together at

The French leader spoke to the
House and Senate members -

De Gaulle got two spontaneous
cheers - a rare display of enthu-
siasm - as he took his place at
the House rostrum. After his 49,
minute speech he got another
rousing ovation.
Veteran observers said it was

Iranian City
Wrecked In Quake;
Hundreds In Peril

TETIRAN, Iran, Up = A shat
tering earthquake has leveled the
south Iranian city of Lar and the
Red Cross tonight estimated about
700 were killed and several
thousand injured.
DR.. Hussein .Khatibi, Iranian
Red Cross director, who made the
estimate, said he believed early
official estimates of 1900 to
1900 were exaggerated. He said
upwards of $50 bodies have been
recovered and buried.
Shah Mohammed Reza Pahlevi
ordered quick relief measures.
Iranian Air Force planes para
chuted flour, sugar and eggs into
the area and set up an airlift to
ferry in other food, medicine and
tents.
The menace of poisonous snakes
added to the horror. It is reported
that snakes found their way under
the debris and attacked trapped
victims. NANCY of those rescued
were suffirng from snake bites.
Authorities appealed to Tehran for
serum. The U. S. government was
the first foreign government to
pledge aid. 1t made 100 tons of
flour quickly available.
Lar is $50 miles south of Tehran.

Weather Hampers
Search For B-58
Lost In Salt Lake

HILL AFB, Utah, Up - Cloudy,
showery weather hampered Air
Force officials who are looking for
what's left of a missing B-58 jet
bomber. They found part of its
tail section yesterday.
The 10-mi1lion-dollar, Convair-
built Hustler disappeared over the
Great Salt Lake Friday Two of
the three civilians who made UP
its crew are missing. The third
parachuted into the lake and made
it safely to shore.
Weather has hampered aerial
search efforts, and an about
ground crew search has failed to
turn up all but trace of the
plane or the missing men.
Kenneth Timpson, the 29-year-
old flight engineer from Fort
Worth, Tex, who survived the
crash, said he saw the plane go
down in the lake as he para
chuted. He said he didn't see the
'chutes of the other crewmen.
The missing men are Ray Ten
hoff, 38, the pilot, and Walter
Simon, 30, another flight engineer,
both of Fort Worth. The Convair
crew was on a bomb scoring test
flight from Texas Carswell Air
Force Base to Salt Lake City.

Chou Says Red China
Will Respect India Border

NEW DELHI, Up - Red Chinese
Premier Chou En-Lai said tonight
China will respect the disputed
MacMahon line between northeast
India and Tibet.
"The so-called MacMahon line
is completely unacceptable to
China" Chou said, "but we are
willing to maintain the present
status in that sector. We will not
cross that line"
The statement to newsmen
seemed to free India of the Chi
nese claim to $4,000 square miles
of territory in the northeast, one
of the two major areas in dis
pute. The other is the Ladakh
Plateau about 1000 miles west of
the northeast frontier.
. Chou spoke after winding UP
conferences with Prime Minister
Nehru on the border dispute. A
communique said they failed to
reach agreement but they had de-
cided to let other officials of the
two governments study documents
bearing on the location of the
border.

Wade Will Answer
To Courts Why He
Blocks New Party

JUNEAU, R - An injunction
suit against Secretary of State
Hugh Wade has been filed by a
Fairbanks labor union official
seeking a place on the November
election ballot as an Alaska Party
candidate for the U. S. Senate.
The action seeks mandatory
injunction to block Wade from re-
fusing to recognize Lawrence
Brayton as a candidate for the
two-year- party.
The suit was filed in Superior
Court at Fairbanks. Judge Ever
EFT Hepp set Friday for hearing
on the injunction petition.
The suit contends provisions of
the 1860 state election code de-
prive voters of their constitutional
rights and make it impossible for
statewide candidates of the Alas
ka Party to qualify for the Novem-
Der 8 general election.
Acting under specifications of
the new election code, signed into
law by Gov. Egan on April Z,
Brayton's declaration of candi-
dacy on an Alaska Party ticket
was refused.
Instead, Wade advised Brayton
he would have to file by petition
as a so-called no-party candidate
affiliated with the Alaska Party.
The filing, supported by the sig
natures of at least 1000 qualified
voters, would have to be COM
pleted by May deadline.
The petition method is spelled
out in the law in cases where a
candidate does not represent rec
ognized political party. To be rec
ognized, party must have had a
candidate for Governor at the last
election who polled at least 10 per
cent of the vote cast.
Brayton, 32-year-old business
agent for the Fairbanks local of
the American Federation of Tech
nical Engineers, contended in a
brief the new law was approved
too close to the filing deadline to
permit candidates to meet the pc
tition requirements.
