Gets 30 Negroes
Construction Jobs

Chicago (ANP) - In dramatic
contrast to Philadelphia where
violence flared before unions
agreed to use Negro workers in
the construction of a public school,
80 Negroes have been hired to
work on the $32 million federal
office building being built here.
Hundreds of Negro pickets bat
tied police and white workers when
they tried to tie up work on the
Philadelphia school before an
agreement was worked out where
by four were hired Immediately
and plans approved for the en-
ployment of more Negro crafts
men.

lished the breakthrough in Chicago
was disclosed last week by Judge
James B. Parsons Of the federal
district court. Judge Parsons is a

Through efforts Of the group
that calls itself the Chicago Fed
eral-Municipal Advisory Commit
tee on nondiscrimination, more Ne
groes were hired last week.
There now are 485 workers on
the building, and eventually Judge
Parsons said he hopes 20 per cent
of them will be Negroes.

Judge Parsons said. I'VE are a
communications group"

Official blessing" for the Chicago
committee from President Ken
nedy's Fair Employment commit
tee, headed by Vice President Lyn-
don B. Johnson.

church leaders. Judge Parsons
praised the cooperation of the Cen
eral Services administration, which
supervises the building construc-
ton, and the GSA regional direc-
tor, Dominic Tesauro.
The 80 Negro workers were sell
ected from 735 applicants, most of
whom were referred to the COM

vancement Of Colored People, and
Mayor Daley's Commission on HUI
man Relations.

would have to make a formal
finding that there is a suffi-
Gent number Of decent housing
units available at proper rents
for residents slated for dis
placement before an area could
be designated as an urban re-
newal project. 1t is the devel-
opment agency that now must
certify this is the case.
These five stipulations were
carried in a previous urban
renewal measure, which also
dealt mainly with expansion Of
authority into commercial
areas. That measure was intro
duced in the last Congress by
former Representative Burke,
Democrat Of Kentucky. The
full House District Committee
eliminated the stipulations and
reported out only provisions
providing for redevelopment
work in business areas.
This measure was passed by
the House but failed to clear
the Senate during the closing
days Of the session.
Plans Amendment
Representative Dowdy today
said he will propose another
amendment TO the bill when 1t
comes up before the full COM
mittee. The subcommittee
chairman said that his amend
ment will be aimed at defin-
ing the word blight" The in
depreciation OF this word pro-
vides the basis for designating
an area for redevelopment.
Mr.. Dowdy's position is that
the commercial redevelopment
bills introduced this session
drastically widen the legal basis
for a redevelopment designa-
ton. His argument is backed
by an analysis OF the measures
prepared by the Congressional
Legislative Reference Service.
AS the legislation is written,
Mr.. Dowdy said, any neighbor-
hood in the city, or for that
matter any house or vacant lot
would be subject TO condemna-
ton and seizure at the discre-
ton OF the planners.
Along with Mr.. Dowdy and
seven members OF his subcom-
tmittee. today's executive session
was attended by the chairman
OF the full committee, Repres-
entative Mcmillan, Democrat OF

House passage of the bill will

on individual income in two
steps from the present range Of
20 to 81 per cent to a range
of IA to 10 per cent.
The corporation rate would
drop in two stages from So to 48

the administrations spending
lrecord casts doubt on the econ
omy pledges.
The administration argues
that the Byrnes formula would
weaken the impact of tax cuts
in stimulating the economy by
prol0nging uncertainty about
whether the rate reductions
really would take effect.
Moreover, the administration
maintains tax reduction is
needed on its own merits and
should not be made contingent
on spending.
Pro and con arguments were
aired in speeches last week by
the President, Mr.. Byrnes and
Representative Curtis of Mis-
souri,, another Republican
spokesman on taxes.
Mr.. Kennedy maintained that
high taxes have prevented the
economy from operating at full
capacity. He said cuts would
increase consumer purchasing
power and give businessmen the
funds and incentive to invest
in new plants and equipment.
Mr.. Byrnes agreed that tax
cuts are needed, but insisted
that spending must be con-
trolled first.
The administration has been
lobbying hard for the tax bill,
which the President has given
a top-priority label equal to
that of the civil rights legis-
lation.
Several existing and ad hoe
business groups are campaign
int for the bill and against the
Byrnes amendment.
Mr.. Byrnes has reacted an
grily to this opposition, and

his strong belief that Biz
mingham's problems could be
settled at the local level.
Mr.. Kennedy held a 45-min-
ute conference with the two at
the White House last evening.
New Talks Today
The President met with them
after comforting earlier with
five white leaders from Birm-
ingham and holding a separate
meeting late in the afternoon
with six Alabama religious
leaders.
"All of the persons at these
meetings" the President said in
a statement, express a desire
to meet Birmingham's problem
within the city itself, and to
make progress to restore the
confidence of the citizens Of
Birmingham, both Negroes and
whites, in its ability to keep
the peace and to make progress
on the problems which confront
that troubled city"
The President said both
groups expressed the hope that
Mr.. Royal and Col. Blaik would
be able to contribute toward
easing the tension and said
they would be welcome. Similar
expressions were given by Bir-
mingham Negro leaders at a
White House meeting last week.
Outlines the Mission
The President said the mis-
sion of his two representatives
would be to give whatever
assistance they can in restoring
good communications between
the white and Negro commune
ties in that city and in easing
racial tensions which now exist"
