He has a good job, is a regular attendant at church, and has proved himself a respectable and useful citizen. I think it would be a shame to take him away from his family for the reasons stated.

given at least an assistant secretaryship in tile cabinet in event of the Republican candidate’s election, It is said that any man who has the courage to name a Negro for the influential State Athletic Committee or to place him on the City Court bench in New York, wouldn't hesitate to name one to
his cabinet.
Among the places being discussed for a Negro in the cabinet are the Attorney General’s office, the* Labor Department, the Postmaster General’s office, and the | Department of the Interior. It is V also believed that a Negro will he r? laised to a district Federal judge-] ship if Mr. Dewey is elected i-
president.
Governor Dewey has taken the position that the Negro must he figured in like all Oliver citizens,

tire United States are being shaped. No group should he treated as wards of the Government, hut should he protected in their rights as citizens whether it be the matter of jobs or in integration into- the management of the
affairs of the country.
