PENTAGON ORDERS DEFENSE CONTRACTORS
 T0 cHTET ST-EEI pTIp AcEc

 IDEFENSE CONTRACTORS ITO SHIFT STEEL PURCHASES WASHINGTON R - The Pen tagon today ordered defense con- tractors and their suppliers to shift steel purchases to those companies which have not raised prices.
 The action was announced by Secretary of Defense Robert Me Nainara.
 In a statement and brief news conference, McNamara also said that:
 If the steel price increase fans out" across the country's economy, national defense costs could rise billion dollars or more a year.
 The impact of increased costs could affect the dollar balance abroad and i've cannot expect to maintain our forces overseas if our trade balance does not improve
 At the direction of President Kennedy, the Pentagon is examin- ing possible substitutes for steel.
 McNamara said that iron and steel prices have increased 90 per cent since 1947, while non-ferrous metals prices have increased only 40 per cent.

LFNTON THOUGHTS

During Lent, many thoughts
pass through your mind. For most
of you, the thought uppermost in
your minds will be the question,
what shall I give up for Lent?
Some who love to travel will not
leave their home town during
Lent; some who love to eat will
give up eating ice cream or meat
or even a whole meal each day;
others will give up going to see
their favorite actors or actresses
during Lent; others will say they
will be kinder to their relatives
and friends; others will promise to
help someone each day during
Lent; others will promise to try
to control their tempers and have
more patience with their children
and listen to them when they are
trying to get help with what seems
to them a very big problem.
Some, who have not been at
tending their church regularly will
promise to attend the church of
their choice regularly; others will
promise to see that their aging
parents are taken to church more
regularly. Before Lent is over they,
too, will be going to church WITH
their parents. Others, who have
been holding grudges against any
one, whether relative or friend.
will pledge themselves to 60 see
or write and tell their loved one
they have been childish and that
friends are too few and far apart
to lose and so they offer them
selves and ask forgiveness and in
due time they receive word that
their friendship was never at
stake. From then on they are bet
ter friends than ever.
Some will offer their help to a
family in need without advertising
it all over town; some will see

THIS NJ THAT.
By Hazel Underwood

that young teen-ager who needs
a dress to attend one of her class
reunions gets it. The girl is worthy
OF any help she gets, and she is
so appreciative. She has a small
book and in it, she has the names
and addresses of all the lovely
gifts, necessities to herr that she
receives. She promises when she
gets her position after gradua-
ton she is first going to buy a
home for her parents who have sac
riticed so much to see that she
gets an education. Another first"
is to remember, in some small
way, the friends of her par
ents who have helped her when she
needed help.
Lent means many different
things to as many different people,
but each one deserves a great deal
Of credit for trying to better his
or her life, even for a period of
forty days. Before President Eisen-
hover took the oath of office which
made him President he prayed ::
20 Almighty God, give us, we
pray, the power to discern clearly
right from wrong, and act accord
ing to Thy dictates. That
prayer is a good one for many
who wish to observe Lent and hav-
emit decided just how they want to
observe it.
Others will observe Lent by re-
membering that SOMEBODY is
following them and for that reason
Tit is up to them to set a good ex-
ample at all times.

Job March" On
DoWfoWn Wash.
Brings Results
BY Emory q. Davis

Washington CAMP - Immedi-
ate response by several merchants
within the block where Saturdays
March On Downtown" against dis
elimination in hiring came during
the dramatic and orderly demon
stration.
Representatives. of several "F"'
street merchants told julius w.
Hobson, CORE president during
the march that they would hire
Negroes. Hobson was told by other
marchers that several store mer-
chants spoke favorably about
changing their hiring policies.
Hundreds of citizens, all carry
ing large placards marched up and
down both sides of the 1900 block
of F street. Police both on motor
cycles and on foot patroled to pro-
tect marchers and prohibit con-
gregating. Several of Washingtons
leading Negro ministers were seen
in the lines. About a fourth of the
marchers were white. No unto
ward incidents were reported.
Sponsors were the Washington
CORE, the NAACP and the In
terdenominational Minister'S ALI
ance. Over 40 community organic
atoms cooperated.
Rev. S. Everette Guiles, pastor
OF Turner AME Church and presi-
dent of the interdenominational
Minister'S Alliance who marched
with the group stated he felt the
march was effective.
However, he expressed a con-
cerned hope that when they open
these doors to us, hope we have
enough qualified people to fill ev-
cry job" Referring to experiences
he has had obtaining jobs for per-
sons through his church, he added
that Misrepresentation on job ap-
plication forms and the failure of
some to assume responsibilities in
employment, could defeat such a
mass effort. He will urge the ALI
ance to caution applicants and as
sist in all ways they can.

MeonY Claims
ST. Louis Union Did
Not Discriminate

ST. Louis CAMP - AFL-ClO
President George Meany has in
formed the NAACP that St. Louis
Pipefitters Local 562 "categori-
cally denies" that it Disseminated
against two Negro apprentices at
tending O'Fallon Technical High
school.
Meany, in a telegram to NAACP
executive secretary Roy Wilkins,
said representatives of the st.
Louis craft union are prepared to
document their denials.
Despite this, however, Meany
promised a complete investiga-
ton" by the AFL-CIO Civil Rights
Committee.
Herbert Hill, national labor sec
rotary of the NAACP said the as
ISOLATION is pleased that Meany has
referred the complaint to the civil
rights group, but said, I'VE can
only hope that this committee will
not repeat its past performances
and simply announce a pious white
wash of Local 562."
The case involves Oliver Parker
and Ronald Leonard, first Negro
apprentices at O'Fallon to take
the steamfitter course. The NAA-
CP alleges that the two were asked
to pay STA for an $3.50 ALL
CLIO manual, then later were dem
led use of the book regardless of
price.
AS a result of the controversy,
O'Fallon school has quit using the
text prepared by the AFL-CIO.
School officials took the position
that the book must be made avail
able to all students or it would be
banned from classroom use. Other
texts were subsequently adopted.

LIES GARDEN


Each of us is a garden
That keeps growing every day.
We can make each moment a
flower
If we plant our lives that way.
For the Garden of Life draws its
beauty
From our little daily deeds.
Our kind thoughts are the lovely
roses,
And our selfish thoughts the weeds.
So fill your garden with flowers
And the snow will come in vain;
For you always will be remembered
When the flowers bloom again.
