INTERSTATE UNITED NEWSPAPERS, Inc
545 Fifth Avenue, New York City, Phone:—
MUrrav Hill 2-5452, Ray Peck, Manager.
Returning veterans and young
non-veteran workers are con.
stantly asking themselves this
question. What will my social and
economic status be tomorrow and
in ten or twenty years from now?
The average worker of today who
has not found a definite career
whether he be young or veteran,
is also pondering along these
lines. The normal answer is, their
status would be determined large
ly by the amount of energy, intel
ligence. action, and training they
use and get.
For those of unusual skills and
abilities, there will always be job
opportunities and good ones at
that The increasing tendency is
to preclude race, religious and
and color barriers for the train
and skilled. Competition is grow
ing keener for the middle level
employment bracket and it will
be getting harded to get johs in
the middle levels. Employment
trends are not heavy in the field
of industry and agriculture. There
will always be numerous jobs in
these fields but the increase is
towards service professionsi In
the service incfustriesy there is
an unprecedented d emand for
competent and trained workers
in stores, cafes, newspapers and ;
magazines, radio, entertainment,
medicine, dentistry, teachers and
in the general field of education.
One reason why careers in the
above feilds will be profitable is
because a natural shortage wa3
created when the war removed a
whole generation of college tech
nicians and profesional people. It
removed also a generation of
skilled mechanics from the train
ed list.
In the field of Science there
will be big demands for at least
two decades. This is equally true
in the vocation of Law. Teaching,
Medicine, and Business Adminis
tration. As for doctors, dentists,
psychologists, psychiatrists, soc
ial workers and well trained
teachers, the demand will be big
for more than two decades. At
this present time trained social
workers in all categories are
needed badly in all areas by pri
vate agencies, local governmental
sub-divisions and demtnds on the
federal government have caused
Uncle Sam to be in the market
for numerous social service work
ers. Like in the teaching profess
ion however, one must be expertly
trained or have years of exper
ience before acceptance. Psychol
ogists, especially clinical psychol
ogists are solely in demand. Per
sons who have ability and an in.
telligent approach to various
kinds of approach to various
OMAHA URBAN LEAGUE
kinds of entertainment and who
are skilled in atheletics and re
creation can easily get good jobs,
especially those who fortify
their abilities with training and
can teach as well as participate.
Another gaad employment field
for a career that has been making
strides is plant housekeeping. The
old practice was to have men and
women with a lot of brooms and
mops, but it is changing fast to a
science known as ‘Sanitizing’. To
become a Sanitizer one has to
learn the skill. It calls for fewer
people to do the work, but for
those who learn, waes are good.
The Sanitizer cleans factories,
warehouses and private homes &
large places. He knows the art of
using cleaning materials and
equipment. He knows sanitation
and how to eliminate rats, roach
es and other pests.
Only a few years ago it was al
most unheard of to find a Negro
in one of the Nations large and
pre-eminent universities but to_
day they are teaching in twenty,
five such institutions. Among
them are New York University,
Columbia, Minnesota, Wisconsin,
Hunter, Harvard, Chicago U. Bos
ton U., Illinois Tech, Depaw; Vas
sarsar, and others. It might be
well for some youngster in
Omaha who chooses the field of
education to aim at one of these
top notch places.
Present trends show unusual
progress for Negroes in Technical
and professional Occupa t i o n
Trends. They are getting jobs af
ter qualifying in such fields as
Chemistry, Electronics; Engineer
ing. Draftsman. Analysts. Mathe
matics Newspaper reporters, Per
sonei Activities, Investigators of
various kinds. Artists Models,
Radio Actors and many more
new and lucretive fields of endea
vor. The field of Transportation is
opening up in many places and it
appears that the demand on the
part of Negro citizens will cause
this field to open up jobs to Neg
roes every where. In many plac
es Negroes have been accepted in
large numbers for street car con
ductors. motormen and bus driv
ers. Reports show Negroes are
now getting top jobs in banks,
insurance companies, utilities and
telephone companies and in large
department stores. Recent reports
are encouraging these new job
stratifications. Negro women by
their qualifications are being
accepted as receptionists, secret
aries and information clerks in
large office buildings. Negroes
must not overlook fresh occupa

Dodge Park in Council Bluffs
was a scene of beauty last Sunday
when the golfers of the Cornhusk
ers Golf Club turned out in full
bloom trying to break par. and
gathering a few birdies It was
such a beautiful day, so the cour
se was packed with a lot of enth
usiastic golfers. Sixteen Com
huskers were on the scene. The
Comhuskers are tuning-up for
their inter-club tournament of the
season, which will begin soon. It
will be match play. Prizes will be
given to the winners of each fli
ght. The Cornhusker Club mem
bership drive that has been going
on since the 1st of March will end

to the club, after May 1st.
Anyone that becomes a member
by the 1st of May will pay the reg.

IS THERE SUCH A THING AS
*
“No”—claim medical authorities, who ought to
know! Nature has so constructed and physi
cally endowed woman that in many cases she's
apt to suffer certain distressing symptoms
during her life. For instance, when she enters
womanhood—or during the menopause, the
period when fertility ebbs away.
Now if on ‘certain days’ of the month—fe
male functional monthly disturbances are
causing you to suffer from pain, nervous dis
tress and feel so tired, cranky, you snap at
your children and husband—ihen do try Lydia
E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound to relieve
such symptoms. It’s famous for this purpose.
Made ESPECIALLY For Girls and Women
Pinkham’s Compound does more than relieve
such monthly pain. It also relieves accom
panying nervous tension, irritability and weak,
highstrung feelings—when due to this cause.
Taken regularly thrucut the month — this
great medicine helps build up resistance
against such distress. A thing any sensible
Woman should want to do!
Lydia Pinkham’s Compound is also very
effective to relieve hot flashes and those funny,
embarrassing feelings during the years 38 to
52—when due to the functional ‘middle-age’
period peculiar to women.
Pinkham’s Compound is worth trying! ^
