Law said Arthur S. Ham, ad-
illustrative assistant to the dean

While It would be difficult
to estimate the number OF Jobs
IN American business available
TO qualified Negroes. Ham saiu
he has received several dozen

during the past few months.
But the problem, Ham point
cd out, is thai at the present
the Schools placement Office

three Negroes currently enrolled
