This con dition, he went on to say, is proof that many of the rontroversial issues between the races in those states are due to misunderstanding. When once the aims and purposes of this organ ization are known, no fair-minded A merican of either race can honestly oppos« it. Ranking officials in both the American Legion and the Vet erans of Foreign Wars have express ed their opinion privately that the National Council of Negro Veterans fills a gap in veteran circles and of fers opportunity for veterans of all groups to make their best contribu tions toward the tinning of the war and the peace unhampered- The na tional board of directors will meet shortly after the first of January to perfect plans for the Second bi-annual national convention which meets in Little Rock, Arkansas during Aug ust 1945.

Like so many citizens of for eign birth he fought for the country of his choice, attaining the rank of captain in the United States army. He studied law, was admitted to the iimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii tion which will aid unions in meet ing race relations problems. The A. Philip Randolph Education al Fund was set up to encourage act ivity of an educational nature to im prove race relations, at the presenta tion of the annual distinguished serv ice award of the Workers Defense League to Mr. Randolph, internation al president of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, May 2nd, 1944. Mr. Randolph is chairman of the fund; Dean Harry J- Carman of Col umbia College is treaurer. Other trustees, in addition to the officers, are: Dr. Sidney E- Goldstein, Rev. Laurence T.

It was his small daughter, Mabel, with her serious face and serious thoughts with whom he shared his dreams, his visions, his ambitions, and best of all in whom he instilled the spirit of patriotism. He used to tell the little girl it was not only the greatest God-yiven privilege of every American to participate in govern ment, bht her bornden duty. “Just think, some day a little girl like you might grow up to be the state’s first woman in Congress-” A serious child, who loved to study and brouse into the history of gov ernments and nations, Mabel learned the constitution and its meaning very early- “All men are created equal", and the rights to “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness” became her watchwords and her life. Mabel was eight when her mother died- It was then she learned she must stand on her own feet, to do for herself, to study, learn and to develop qualities of leadership. Her ten years in the legislature was marked with the same sincerity of purpose and earnestness which characterized the little Danish girl with the long blonde braids. Com mon sense, honesty, and good judge ment born of the long, hard years of making her own way in a hard world and the wisdom inherited and de veloped by her father, marked her political career. Now, Mabel is on the threshold of her father’s dream. She will go in to Congress armed with the same faith in God, faith in America and faith ,’n the righteousness of our great nation that has characterized her life. Hjalmar Gudmundsen’s heart would swell with pride— his dreams may soon materialize Governor Griswold Cites Importance of Selecting Good Legislators_ Mr. C. C Galloway, 2-1 IS Grant, Omaha, Nebraska Lear Friend: \s election day approaches, I am writing you—and, in fact, a number of others—to invite your active sup port of my own candidacy and your interest in the other matters which will be decided. Two issues will appear on the bal lot for direct vote, and in addition, the legislators then chosen will de cide many other important problems. While my friends are confident of my election, yet I do want them all to realize the importance of good leg islators and to work in their behalf The election of Governor Dewey is essential, in my judgement, and I’ll have to admit I'm more interested in his success than in my own. As I have become acquainted with Tom Dewey and with the men who are close to him, I have become firmly convinced he has both the character and the ability to become a great President. His integrtiy has been tested by the hot fires of political life in our largest city- He is a tremendously hard worker and has the faculty, necessary in an executive, of choos ing capable assistants. I know he can do the job that needs to be done for our people. With sincere appreciation for past favors, and with kind personal re RE-ELECT—..

Union Backs Gains of Negro Workers Federal Employes’ Convention Re jects Proposals to Keep Same Proportion in Jobs New York—The convention of the United Federal Workers of America, Congress of Industrial Organizations, rejected yesterday a proposal that any necessary lay offs of Government employes be accomplished in such manner as would maintain in jobs the pres ent proportion of Negroes to white workers. After heated debate at its closing session in the Capitol Hotel, Fifty first Street and Eighth Avenue, the convention adopted a substi tute resolution placing the union on record “in favor of maintaining employment gains made by Negro workers.” Leading the fight for the original resolution was Arthur Huff Faw cett, executive board member of the National Negro Congress, who maintained that “the whole issue of seniority, so hard won, must be made pliable enough to include proportional lay-off.” Opposes Original Proposal Opposing him was Howard Zieg enfuss, of Local 118, at the Phila delphia Navy Yard, who argued that the original proposal contra vened the union’s aim of full em ployment and the principle of sen iority. Pointing out that the issue of proportional lay-offs has been by passed by all big international unions and that the CIO as such has refrained from taking a stand on it, William Molenhauer of Local 118, argued that under propor tional lay-offs one group would be asked “to step out of jobs to let another group of people step in.” “And the people who would be asked to step out would be people who are entitled to the jobs,” he said. “This is a matter of bread and butter, not prejudice.
