CHICAGO (ANP) — An urgent warning to the nation’s teenagers, particularly Negro youngsters to stay in school, was voiced by famed newspaper columnist Sylvia Porter in two recent columns. Miss Porter looked behind statistics for a profile of the unemployed. She saw “mostly an unskilled man—mostly young people —and you see Negroes," too. Twice as many Negroes are unemployed as whites nationally, wrote Miss Porter, and the unemployed person is more usually a young person, 14-24 years old. The reason for this ascribed by the columnist to U. S. Labor Department research, was simply “lack of •kills.” “Those jobless,” wrote Miss Porter, “are what Dr. Seymour Wolfbtin, manpower chief of the Labor Department, calls “the drop-outs, the ones who quit school before getting education and training.’ They are the misfits who are at the bottom of the job pile." The fact that Negroes are at the bottom of the heap is clear. “The Negro," and said the columnist, "is most likely to be unskilled, to leave school early.”
Ala. Negroes Have Last Laugh; Vote Rule Traps Whites
A KISS FOR THE WINNER: Master Tyrus Bingham, eighth-grade student at School No. 36, is all smiles after cruising to victory in the spectacular Little 500-Mile Race, held May 27 in the school gymnasium. The traditional victory kiss i's being planted on his check by Miss Clara Edwards, kindergarten teacher. Tyrus poses gleefully for the photographer holding his Spodmobile Special.
RICHMOND, Va. (ANP)—The
1958 General Assembly thought it had come up with a good method to discourage Negroes from voting—through the use of blank paper applications for voter registration. However, the legislature
found it made a mistake. Instead of being a bar to Negro
registration, it turned out to be a stumbling block to many white registrants, who required several attempts before they met the provisions. Negroes, on the other* Bishop hand, were found to be wellcoached on the information required on the blank paper applica-
tion.
Added to that was a recent decision by the Attorney-General offices that the legislature had failed to repeal the blank paper registration law when it passed recer.t legislation permitting the
use of printed forms. .

Grace o&es him $38,600,000. He didn’t explain why, or how. He just presented ids claim written
on a simple piece of paper*
The man handed the slip to a clerk in the prothonotary’s office here last week and said he’d like
to have it put on record.
It was accepted for filing, and the man strolled out, leaving behind something of a mystery which
still remained unsolved today.
First of all, D. Barlow Burke, the prothonotary, said that in all of his 14 years in office he has never seen a judgment note for
such a whopping amount. And spokesmen lor Daddy
Grace’s church here scoffed at the
two signatures on Hu* i\pte.
One of the signers was a James Walton, who described himself as president of the United House of Prayer lor All People. The other signer was Erma Griffin, who de-
scribed herself as secretary.
The church spokesmen said that Walton was never associated with the House of Prayer, and certainly never was president. And, they added, Erma Griffin is not the
secretary.
The mystery note oears the date of April 26, 1960. It pledges that the United House of Prayer for All People, Inc., will pay $38.6 million “one day after date” to Mankind Home Builders, Inc.

DETROIT (ANP)—In order to sidestep the errors of older labor organizations, the Negro American Labor Council, which was born here last weekend, took steps to eliminate Communists, corruption and racial discrimination The three-day founding convention of the NALC, an anti-discrimi-nation and anti-segregation organization within the labor movement, opened here last week. A. Philip Randolph, NALC founder. said the organization would take in any Neg o union member. There are 1,500,000 of them. ITS FIRST YEAR goal is 100,000 members—at $5 a year for membership. Randolph said the council will also take in any white union members who want to join. “We don’t want to be guilty of discrimination,” the top Negro labor leader said. Puerto Rican unionists can join. Ihe group proposes to fight all forms of discrimination as practiced within unions. Like the Southern students, the Negrq unionists in the new council have rejected “gradualism” as a solution to such problems as Jim Crow locals, discriminatory apprentice^training programs, and what they call “tokenism, that thin veneer of acceptance masquerading as democracy.” Local councils will be formed to fight for equality of opportu^dto in employment, removalrof discriminatory bars within unions and to encourage greater participation by Negroes in unions at the member hip and the leadership
level.
Randolph declared that the council will assist the AFL-CIO in its foreign policy program by helping to convince African and other nonwhite foreign union leaders hat the federation’s declarations of democratic intent are not just 4 coverup for discriminatory prac-
tices

This was the first reaction of President Franklin D. Roosevelt as he listened to the details about the destruction of the fleet, di-
al his request, secured affidavits that no Negro has applied to register as a voter in the county. Holding that the Justice Department has no complaint upon which to base its move to inspect the

government in its efforts to square U. S. democratic pronouncements with much publicized instances of discrimination in this country. Initial announcements of plans for the NALC met a cold reception from the AFL-CIO leadership, which contended the federation already had machinery, in its civil tights committee, to cope with discriminatory practices. The 25-member NALC steering committee drafted a constitution that it hopes will be able to meet any Communist problem that crops up. Randolph, 71, president of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters and the only Negro AFL-CIO vice-president, said the constitution probably would provide for the expulsion of Communists and the corrupt elements sonce they are uncovered. “I PRETTY WELL know most of the prominent Negro Communists,” added Randolph, who is expected to be elected NALC president. “Most Negroes who were Communists have broken away from the Communist movement. “They are more concerned about the elimination of discrimination and segregation based in race than with political Ideologies. “I doubt that there is more than a handful of Negro Communists who are actively trying to infiltrate Negro organizations,” Randolph said.
Only 12 Negroes Will Attend Little Rock School Next Term LITTLE ROCK, Ark.
