Negro Decision.Urgent Public

Fortune Magazine is of the nations top
publications which attracts some of the most able
writer's on contemporary subjects in this country.
The magazine not sold on the newsstands is not
read in the wide circle of popular appeal very
much, it's appeal being directed to the of high
est intelligence and highest responsibility in the
nation.
There is piece by Charles E. SHERMAN on
the subject of the City and the Negro in the March
issue of the magazine, which goes much further
afied in discussing of this nations most press
ing and urgent domestic problems.
Recognizing the limited reading that the mag
azine must have in Mississippi we have selected
from the closing paragraph of the piece words
that not without significance, and thought pro-
voking in regard to the Negro problem in this state
which we here pass on to the readers of our paper
which follows:
pride in self that is developing among
Negroes is powerful lever to raise Negro aspira-
tons and achievements. The Negroes growing DO
litica activity is powerful lever to force cities
to face up to the problem; the Negro vote was de-
csive in last falls mayoraty elections in Atlanta
Detroit, and New York
And the u. S. economy itself should facilitate
the Negroes advance during the 196O's. In rapid

job discrimination and upgrade unskilled and semi

developed during World War II show what industry
can do when the stakes are high enough And with
shortage of skilled labor likely unions will have
Tar less incentive to restrict entry into the skilled
occupations.
These trends will make solution of the Negro
problem less difficult but they will not solve it. If
the Negroes are to take their proper place in US.

Board REEVES
Former Rule On
Truck Drivers

The automatic severance OF
truck drivers from plant-wide
bargaining units, on petition of
the unaffiliated Transfers or
any other union, will no longer
be the policy of the National
Labor Relations Board, the
board has decided in a 80 de-
cision.
The board majority voted,
over the objection Of members
Boyd Leedom and Philip Ray
Rodgers, to return to the policy
in effect several years ago of
severing from a plant group
only units which are Sufficient
ly distinct functionally to war
rant separate representation"
Chairman Frank w. McCul-
loch and members Gerald A.
Brown and John H. Tanning
voted to dismiss the petition of
Transfers Local Z for a unit of
truck drivers and shipping de-
partment employees, or "any
other unit deemed appropriate"
at the plant of the Kalamazoo,
Mich, Paper Box Corp. The
ruling means that Local 518,
Pulp, Sulphite & Paper Mill
Workers, will continue to repre-
setn all plant employees, as it
has since 1915.
The three board members, at
firming an earlier intermedi-
ate ruling by Hearing Officer
Iris H. Meyer, concluded that
two drivers at the paper box
plant spend about half their
time as drivers but also do pro-
duction and shipping work and
exchange duties with other
workers.
Asserting that the previous
policy of the board was not
consistent with purpose of the
Taft-Hartley Act, the board
voted to change the current
rule in such cases and to con-
slider each application on the
basis Of work performed and
not on job titles.

JobIess Rate
Sc Percent Long
Term Idle Up
BY Robert B. COOney

The employment picture show
ed further improvement" in
February, the Labor Dept. has
announced, as job gains re-
bounded from January's bad
weather and short-term unem-
ployment declined.
The labor force, however, in
dicated continued stagnancy in
it's failure across the past sew
eral months to increase over its
size of a year earlier. The
civilian labor force-those at
work or actively seeking work
totaled 7O.3 million in February,
unchanged from year ago.
The summary job report for
February showed that unem-
rloyment declined by 10000
over the month to As million.
The seasonally adjusted rate of
unemployment dropped to Sc
percent from So percent; it
was the lowest rate since July
1860. A year ago the jobless
rate was 60 percent.
LOng-Term Swell
The long term UNEMPLOYED -
those jobless Is weeks or longer
had their ranks swelled by
100000 to IA million, termed
"the usual increase for these
months" This group includes
100000 persons seeking jobs
but "out of work for more than
half a year."
The long term jobless total of
ia million matches the total hit
in February 1859; it has been
exceeded for the month only by
the 1.6 million of 1861. Low for
the month was the total of 246,-
600 in 1853.
The Administration views the
Ia million long-term 1obless to-
tai of February as pretty high,
in the words of Labor Dept.
man-power expert Seym O u +
Wolfbein.
The employment total for
February jumped by 100000 to
G5.8 million, showing better
than seasonal gains following
the unusually bad weather of
the January survey week." the
report said. Farm jobs, con-
struction work and other out
door activities fell sharply at
that time.
2.2 Million on Part-Time
Included among the employ
ed in February" the report con-
tInued, "were % million non-
farm workers on part-time for
economic reasons, 100000 more
than in January but l million
below the February 1861 lev
ell"
The failure of the labor force
to expand in line with the con-
tinuing increase in the popula-
ton first attracted attention a
few months ago. The annual
rise had been about / million a
year in the late Fifties and this
was expected to increase fur
Their in the 196Os.
The Labor Dept. is attempting
to uncover specific reasons. La
Dor Sec. Arthur j. Goldberg
last December tentatively said
that many people seem not to
be actively seeking work be-
cause the job market has been
tight.
He broke down the missing
one million this way: older peo-
pie at or nearing the retirement
age took that option sooner
than they otherwise might have;
housewives and other supple
mental wage earners did not
enter the job market; the armed
forces increase absorbed some
younger jobseekers; the farm
| to-city trend slowed down as
i city jobs proved unavailable.
