Alexander, had also been taken ov
er by FEPC.
What happened to Dr. Weaver I
himself Is another unanswered ques
tion. Some say that he will resign,
others said he will sit-tight.
This version of what happened or |
what is alleged to have happened
at the meeting has the verification
of a former government worker
close to the administration, who re- ■
lated the identical story as having
been toll as coming from the White
House a week ago. In other words,
it had been previously decided the
FEPC was to have the things it ask
ed for regardless of pressure from
Other sources.
Staff members at FEPC differ on
their stories, with no official state
ment forthcoming. One member
says the FEPC would of a certainty
got Weaver’s files, another is quot
ed as saying the FEPC got every
thing it asked for. incluling an in
creased personnel.
Original FEPC plans called for
theopening of regional offices in
several cities with the present staff .
members who had proven their
worth promoted to higher and bet
ter paying posts. This plan has
been abandoned because the War
Manpower commission has region il
offices. There is some talk of as
signing FEPC men to the region »1
offices of the commission, though
there is nothing to sustain this.
No one is certain of what is hap
pening, although information is a
vailable that McNutt’s lieutenants,
McSherry and Altmeyere, opposed
any proposition to give the FEPC
any increased power of budget Alt
meyer is known to be opposed to
the employment of mixed groups,
according to his own statements te
fre a House committee on budgets.
That he will abolish Weaver’s
staff and appoint and name his own,
field men is a statement accredited
to Lawrence Cramer of the FEPC.
This also is without confirmation.
Another ‘'insider” commenting on
Dr. Weaver’s “absence” from the
city says it would not surprise him
if Dr. Weaver had no staff when he
returned to the city on Monday.
While Gov. McNutt’s office is the
logical place from which the inform
ation should emanate, his multiple
duties make it impossible practical
ly t osee him for comment, although
he had tentatively promised an in
terview last Tuesday. Suddenly lie
found himself confronted with an
other gigantic task thrust upon him
by the President, which demanded
his attention elsewhere.
Politically wise observers are
watching every move being marie
and see in the terrific problems be
ing given McNutt, a subtle effort to
b-ing about his elimination from the
1944 political picture. It is com
monly known that the handsome
Hoosier has ambitions and aspirat
ions which do not harmonize with
the present schedule and all “mop
ping up” of difficult problems is
thrown in his lap.
During the conference with Mr.
McNutt, it is said three proposes
were offered by the committee. One
was to abolish the Weaver outfit;
one was to absorb Weaver’s outfit
and the third was to abolish the
FEPC. In other words, make the
FEPC effective and stronger, or do
away with it entirely. Mr. McNutt
would agree to neither of these pro
posals preferring to allow the mat
ter to hang over for a week.
Sides seem to have been taken in
the matter, with some favoring
Weaver and others favoring Cram
er Meanwhile, the fate of the Ne
gro, who is supposed to benefit
through these organizations, hangs
in the balance.

ANNOUNCE NEGRO TEACHER
SURPLUS IN TENNESSEE
Nashville, Sept. 24 (ANP) Al
though Tennessee has a surplus of
Negro teachers as revealed in a sur
vey recently completed by the State
education department, little hope
was held for their placement jo
Schools where positions are avail
able.
There is a dearth of white teach
ers to staff elementary schools it
was also disclosed.
B. O. &Duggan, education commis
sioner, in announcing completion of

have more Negro teachers than we
have places to put them.

COLLEGE HEAD SCORES “SPEED
I P” EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS
DURING WAR EMERGENCY
New York City, Sept. 24 (ANP)—
Declaring that ‘ the war function of
higher education is to provide +he
officer material for the armed for.
es as well as to supply a storehouse
for scientific, technical and admin
istrative skills for the war effort in
general.” President Harry D.
Gideonse of Brooklyn college, writ
ing in the current issue of ‘ The
Journal of Negro Education,”
sharply criticized ‘‘speed up” educ
ational programs in colleges which
now confer bachelor’s degrees at the
end of the sophomore year.
The Journal is published by the
Bureau of Educational Research,
Howard university, and Dr. Charles
H& Thompson is editor. Quoting
the American Colege Personnel as
sociation, Dr. Gideonse in his art
icle, states that only students cf
superior academic ability with "year
‘round support, can benefit from
most forms of educational acceler
ation.
Dr. Gideonse declares, “that tha
accidents of world politics and of
the national defense legislation
might have forced a professional re
examination of the substance of col
lege programs, but the immediate
answer to this challenge was not a
vigorous re-thinking of programs as
they had developed, but rather a
variety 0f “speed up” programs un
der the catch-all title of ‘acceler
ation’.”
Dr. Gideonse is sharply critical
of two developments under the “ac
celeration” banner. He writes that
‘‘one of our leading institutions of
higher learning’ quite cynically
doubled its frehman class—in spite
of a great deal of language about
high standards of admission in the
past—to offset the loses of fees that
have developed in its senior and
graduate classes.”
