Racial integration in Govern
spurred by President
Kennedy in recent weeks, has
not yet touched the 195-man
security force that guards Mr..
Kennedy and the White House.
In response to an inquiry,
the Secret Service said yester-
day there are no Negroes on
the White House police force,
which has 160 members, or on
the 35-man White House de-
tail of the service itself.
However, a spokesman said
there are no barriers to the
employment of Negroes in these
jobs. He said candidates are
considered without regard to
race.
II would expect that it's just
a matter of time before Negroes
are assigned at the White
House." he said.
Questioned further, he said
the service has made no special
attempt to hire a Negro for as
Signment there.
At Mr.. Kenedy's direction,
many of the executive depart
mentS are making special ef-
fort to recruit Negroes for pro-
,fessional work. The Treasury,

The Secret Service has a very
few Negro agents cit declined
to say exactly how many and
none is assigned to the White
House. Altogether there are
about 300 agents, many of them
scattered across the country.
The spokesman said two of
the Negroes who have applied
for White House police assign
ments in recent years were con-
Sidered we'll qualified and might
have been hired. However, he
said that for some reason they
withdrew their application be-
fore any action was taken.
While the service has few
Negro agents, the spokesman
said, it has made occasional ef-
forts to hire more because they
would be valuable in carrying
out assignments in Negro
neighborhoods. He said recruit

years ago through Howard Uni

Unless more cars are sold in
the next few months to reduce
the new car inventory, the un-
ion would be in an awkward
position in threatening strike
action.
The JAWS strike fund now
totals more than $35.5 million
and the union estimates this

Mr.. Reuther disclosed some
of his 1861 bargaining goals a
week ago in a statement pub
lished in the JAWS newspaper
Solidarity. His program, out
lined for the unions IL million
members, called for salaries for
production workers and stressed

policy of restraint in dealing
with General Motors, Ford and
Chrysler on new contracts to
replace the three-year con-
tracts which expire August 81.
He said he would stress job Sc
curity.
But Mr.. Reuther may have a
battle on his hands to control
a militant minority among the
5000 convention dele g teS.
Some of them are demanding
that the UAW set as its main
bargaining goal a shorter work
week-30 hours work with no
cut in pay. The present work
week is 40 hours.
The JAWS biggest local-No:
600 at Ford's Rouge plant in
suburban Dearborn - is de-
manding a 10-hour reduction
in the work week coupled with
earlier retirement for workers.
The locals president, Carl
Stellato, who frequently has
challenged Mr.. Reuther's pol
icies, claims a shorter work
week would help solve the Ma
tion's unemployment problem,
Mr.. Stellato repeatedly has
the support of other locals in
Detroit. Chicago, Cleveland
and Pittsburgh.
Mr.. Reuther also favors a
shorter work week but prefers
to achieve it gradually. He
would rather have Congress
shorten the work week than
make it a collective bargain
ing goal.
In a speech here Thursday
before an unemployment rally
sponsored by organized labor,
Mr.. Reuther called for a grad
ual reduction of working hours

u. S. Accuses
ShipbuiIders
On RentIssue
By the Associated Press

Two private shipbuilding
firms are charged by Govern
ment accountants with using
Navy-owned facilities rent-free
to build commercial ships.
The General Accounting Of
flee recommended $1.4 million
in back rent be sought from
the firms, Bethlehem Steel Co.
Of San Francisco and New York
Shipbuilding Corp. of Camden,
N. j. The firms contend their
arrangement for using the ia
cilitieS do not require any pay
ment of rent.
The GAO report to Congress,
the White House and the De-
fense Department, said yesterH
day that Bethlehem has built
two commercial tankers on
Government-owned slips and
has two more under way.
New York Shipbuilding, the
report added, has built three
commercial tankers on building
ways partially owned by the
Government.
An independent appraisal
valued the Government facil-
tiles in San Francisco at $5.4I
million, with an annual rental
Of $612,000, and those at Cam
den at $2.6 million with an an
nual rental Of $3.50, 900, the
GAO said.
Bethlehem paid some rent
for the facilities it used for ship
repair work, but none for ship
construction, while the New
York firm never paid any rent
for any commercial use of the
Navy facilities, the report said.
The GAO said Bethlehem and
New York Shipbuilding claim
they owe no rent because the
World War II contracts under
which the facilities were built
and under which no rent was
charged-have never been ter
minated.
