Employment Sefup
In South Problem

washington lamp - The De-
partment of Labor has run into a
touchy and complicated problem OF
long standing in its effort to wipe
segregation from all Of its depart
ments. This one deals with the
policy Of segregation practiced in
the United States Employment
Service offices in the south.
Labor Secretary Arthur Gold
berg was briefed on this subject
soon after he took office. He was
warned that any move to desegre-
gate the USES services in the
South would run right smack into
the sensitive area of Federal-sta
relations.
Day-By-Day Operation Under
State Directors
Although the Federal Govern
ment supplies around $1OO million
year to run some 1900 local
employment offices throughout the
country and pay their staffs, the
day-by-day operation is under
state directors. These local offic-
ials are likely to run the USES
branches according to customs and
traditions Of their areas.
In some large Southern cities,
separate USES offices are main
tanned for different racial groups.
In others, segregated services are
operated in the same building with
partitions, separate waiting rooms
and separate lobbies for white and
Negro applicants.
Problem Handling DOmestics
Some are segregated according
to occupations. For instance, one
desk will handle all domestics, and
only Negroes hold domestic jobs
in some sections of the country.
Goldberg realizes that a fiat
edict to cut off Federal funds un-
less local offices are desegregated
would disrupt the services which
are so much needed by Negroes.
Another problem involved in
these areas is that of segregating
the staff of the offices. 1t is not
likely that employment offices will
find jobs for the unemployed on

AR
By Maurice Duke

Try, every week or so, to learn
something by heart. A surprising
amount will remain in the men,
ory. and more and more as you
train it. Then, as you walk or
work or sit on the bus, you will
have something more than daily
trivialities,to occupy your mind.
The Leonard Hayer benefit
dance, held at the Arizona Room
of the Prom on Easter Sunday,
April 2, 1861, was a tremendous
success, and a credit to the Sphinx
men of Alpha Phi Alpha Fratern-
ity, and to their Pledge Master,
Albert Durand, who worked so
hard to put the dance over. They
did this not for glory or gold, but
to bring Leonard's dream Of be-
coming a lawyer into reality.
George Brooks, a member of the
Sphinxmen was called upon by
Harold Payne, master of ceremony
to give the history behind the
benefit dance.
OF course all their work would
have been in vain if 1t had not
been for you, the public, who sup
ported this affair so whole heartily,
and gave of your time and money
so freely.
The climax of the dance was
the coronation of the Sphinx Club
Sweetheart. This honor went tc
Miss Sandy Vaughn of Minneapo-
lis, who is a sophomore at the
University of Minnesota, majorine
in x-ray technology.
Once again salute you, the
Sphinxmen, and your Pledge Mas,
ter, Albert Durand for a job vel
done.

Q. I'm 81. My husband gets So
clal security checks each month.
We've been married little over a
year. Can | get payments as his
wife?
A. Yes. Because of recent
changes in the law, you need to
be married only year. You and
your husband should go by the
social security office right away.
Your payments can start with less
delay if you'll take your marriage
certificate and some old record

Social Security check as his wife,

A. Yes, provided neither of you
have obtained a divorce. The fact
that you are separated does not
prevent you from getting checks
as his wife. You should visit the
Social Security office at once.
Q. Since retiring on my Social
Security payments, | have been

Must file an income tax return? =?

your Form 1040. This is required

Q. Last month | hired a part

meals, and the house cleaning. /

do | pay the social security tax?
A. Social security taxes are paid
at the end of each calendar quar-
ter for workers employed in your
home. The tax is due if you paid
her at least $50 in cash in the quar-
ter. The next tax report is due
by April 30, 1861, for wages paid

questioned whether all the worlds

largest of the three divisions of
the Dutch Reformed Church and
one whose leaders subscribed re-
Gently to resolutions of a World
Council of Church's meeting in
johannesburg implying doub t
about some of the present govern
ment's racial attitudes.
DR.. van der Nerve, in his fare
we'll address in Cape Town to his
churches federal council, said,
World opinion has turned against
us with a severity and bitterness
that very often borders on hys-
terra. That this is sometimes done
maliciously out of prejudice or ig-
norance does not absolve us from
taking notice.
Are we prepared in t h e
times of crisis to listen again and
see whether God has something
to say to us in regard to these
happenings?

"The church must be alive to
the danger that Afrikanership as
such be regarded as a conclusive
claim to the continued protection
of the Almighty. The truth is that
Afrikanership actually has no mo-
raj value which and I say it
with reverence-places God under
any obligation toward our peo-
pie"
II DR.. van der Nerve said that

I'VE should not try to evade the
question whether the sympathy

not sometimes cause us to keep
silent when we should have made
our voices heard"

If consumer income has held
up in the current recession, it is
argely for this reason" he said.
ANY wage-cutting that began on
large scale with the blue-collar
workers would inevitably spread to
white-collar workers, and ultimate
ly to professional workers"
Asserting that labor's goals are
consistent with those of most Am
ericans, Clayman told the prin-
cipals that those goals include
higher living standards, reasonable
security, a voice in job conditions,
earned leisure and fair share of
national production.
Labor has driven home the mes
sage that the machine was made to
serve the people, and that trickle-
down prosperity isn't enough. True,
minority still has to learn this
lesson, but such understanding now
is widespread. With this there has
come a deeper concern for the
human rights of everyone" he said.
Saying that labor is not looking
for miracles from the new Admin
istration and Congress, Clayman
said labor hopes for an atmos-
phere in which collective bargain
ing will be more effective, and an
opportunity to "explore the awe
some potentialities" of automation
through the new labor-management
public committee that Pres. John
F. Kennedy has said he will ap-
point.
One estimate of automation's eff
fects, based on a survey by Rep.
Elmer Holland (D-Pa.), was cited
by Clayton as indicating that to
million white-collar workers will be
displaced from their jobs by office
machines in the next few years.
Government Role Cited
"Great top-level decisions must
soon be made," he said. "The
greatest danger lies in having in
dustry make those decisions uni

ably best be made in collective bar

Plan Backed
BY AFL CIO

Support for a bill to extend the
benefits of CT education programs
to post-Korean War veterans has
been urged on Congress by the
AFL-CIO.
In testimony before a Senate
subcommittee on veterans affairs.
Legislative Rep. George Rilev
urged that federal funds be used
to provide the same kind of edu-
cational and trade training for
"peacetime" soldiers as was leg
islated for World War II and Ko-
rean War veterans.
The AFL-CIO spokesman told
the subcommittee that since ere
cent threats to the peace of the
free world" require this nation to
maintain a military force prepared
to resist aggression, Congress
should pass the bill introduced
by Sen. Ralph w. Marlborough Cd
Tex to provide readjustment as
sistance to "peacetime" vetreans.
Riley urged that legislation in
this field provide training for those
who want to become craftsmen, in
addition to prospective teachers,
scientists and doctors. It should
not be limited, he said, to veterans

bargaining gave way to collective
bargaining, so must the latter now
be complemented by government
decisions.
The IUD speaker predicted that
automation will have as great an
impact upon our culture, social or
ganization and education as upon
employment. Every teacher and
principal must prepare now, Clay
man said, to deal with the rising
demand for educational opportun-
ity that will accompany more lei
sure time.
