H illy J. of Portland asks: "J u s t how many Blacks are there in tlie navy?" J hanks foi a relatively insy one H illy. As of July out of an officer corps of 80,000 there were 509 Hlacks and In the eniishted ranks there wei e not quite 34,- 000 out 545,200 men. These nun die is repiesent a ratio less than half that of the na tional racial distribution. It is tlie navy’ s airn to match tlie na tional racial percentages tliereby providing tlie same oppoi tunlties foi employment, education, and advancement to all Americans. I his w ill also have tlie effect of making tlie navy more responsive to the needs ut d lffe ie n t groups nt fieople and Improving each man’ s understanding and ac ceptance of a fellow luman be ing. Charles C. of Vancouver asks: "W hat is being done about discrim inatory housing practices?" The answer to tins Is two-fold. F irs t, tlie distribution of on-base and off-base government housing to navy men is made on a firs t come basis without regard to VI** "Messiah” auditions set Thanksgiving Specials ra c e o ria n k . Officer ami en listed housing Is separate but this is the oniydiffeieritiation. Regarding civilian off-base housing tlie navy attempts to identify discrim inatory hous ing practices by i equestlng all navy men to check with a navy housing office before lenting or buying. When discrim ina tion is discovered it is i eport- ad to fedei al authorities and all naval peisonnel are dis courager! fio m renting or buy ing from the offender. That’ s all for today.
