July 24, ANP— Just when friends of Daniel Young, alias Gabe McEIroy, were persuaded that Young was pre pared to admit that he is the real McEIroy, Young crossed them up and stuck to the story that he is Daniel Young, not Gabe McEI roy. In so doing, he turns his back on a fortune of $750,000 which, it is said, aw*aits him in Texas oil lands. Young, now 65 years of age, was questioned by the ANP cor respondent. “Since everybody insists that you are G§be McEIroy and have conclusive proof, why don't you admit it and accept the money?” he was asked. “I do not want other people’s money,” he replied, “and I would not lose my identity for the money.” “But you could lose your identity for $750,000, couldn't you ?’ * “What would it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses his soul?” Young conutered. He was formerly a local preacher. The fortune in oil money which awaits Young if he will admit that he is Gabe McEIroy accrued from land left him by his dead parents. Forty years ago. after a shoot ing scrape with a mob of white men, Gabe McEIroy fled from home and was never heard of again. However, the estate of his parents was left to him and his brothers and sister. Since no proof of Gabe’s death existed, his portion of the estate could not be disposed of without his consent. In 1931. oil development com panies obtained a lease on Gabe Me Elroy’s land and. in the meantime, have been searching for him in order to legalize the lease and to turn over to him the accrued returns since 1931- These returns are said to amount to $750,000. Since the lease under which the company operates is not valid without Gabe’s signa ture, the missing Gabe could claim even more if he wished to be cantankerous. Young was located in a Kansas City jail by investigators for the oil company and returned to Oma ha where he had lived for 16 years. He steadfastly denied that he was Gabe McElroy until he was confronted by relatives from Tyler, Texas. He is then said to have made the admission and to have signed papers to that effect. Arrangements were made to take him to Texas by airplane to clear up legal obstacles. But, at the last moment, Young could not be found. When he was located, he had taken refuge in the city jail. It is said that he fears the tales; of fortune are all a trick to get him back to Texas to answer for the shooting 40 years ago. Flournoy Miller at Cotton Club New York, July 24.

F. of L. _ i Washington, July 24, ANP— The National Urban, League to day warned the American Federa tion of Labor that its failure to lower the color bars against Ne groes would result in the forma- J tion of rival unions which would eventually usurp the place of the American Federation of Labor in . this country Reginald Johnson, special rep resentative of the League in this city, read a statement prepared by the National Urban League on “The Position of the National Ur ban League on Racial Discrimina- ! tion in the American Federaton of Labor” before the special commit tee of the Federation formed as a result of a resolution prepared by A. Phillip Randolph at t h e Federations Convention in San Francisco last year. In this state- ; ment the League recited specific cases in which Negroes were eith er barred from unions directly, or indirectly'. Pointing out that the American Federat’on of La bor had time and time again reit erated a stand against race dis crimination to no avail, the League s statement demanded that more drastic action must he taken if Negro workers are to be come participants in the Federa tion of Labor. The recommendation of the Ur ban League were as follows: “We specially urge the adop tion of the A F. of L. of legisla tion which will carry forward the provisions of Delegate Phillip Randolph’s original resolution provding for the exclusion from I A. F. of L. membership of inter nationals which refuse to abide by its spirit of fair play to all races. Legslation must be enacted which will bring real penalties against those unions which refuse to com ply with the spirit of organized j labor and the pronouncement of the A. F of L. Executive Council on tre subject of interracial brotherhood. An international which specifically admits “only white workers” has no place in the membership of the A. F. of L. A local which defies its interna tional’s constitution and refuses to accord equalty to all workers regardless o f race must b e ex pelled or otherwise disciplined if the international s to have the re spect of its members—white and black.v “We urge, moreover, the adop 1 tion of Mr. Randolph’s resolution no. 145. of the 1934 convention,'! calling for the appointment of Negro organizers and a program of education among Negro work- j ers. To make special appeal and approach to Negro workers, Ne_ gro organizers must be appointed as has been done by some liberal unions, notably, the United Mine Workers of America, the Interna tional Longshoremen’s Associa tion. the International Ladies’ Garment Workers Union and the Amalgamated Clothing Workers Union.” Notice, Subscribers: If you don’t get your paper by Saturday, 2 p. m.. call Webster 1750.

Hundreds of Transient Men Get Farm Jobs _ More thon 50 per cent of the r ten who have been living in transient centers in Omaha, Belle vue and Plattsmouth. have left to j take jobs within the past few weeks, according to H. F. Fore, educational director. He said most of the men re maining in Omaha center at 22nd and Hickory, are unemployable.'

Agency Fees Too High. “Most of these men have gone to jobs on their own, initiative,” "are said- “Very few calls for men have not been filled immedi ately. The only instances in ivhieh men have refused jobs vere when empoyment agencies iemanded too large fees or where t was obvious empoyers were try ng to exploit the men.” Fore said empoyment agencies ha<i been set up at the three tran- , sient centers and that workers ivould be suplied from them to ] anyone in need of help.
