torial slur cast upon Negroes in the
recent Chicago election and a letter
by James Weldon Johnson, Secretary
of the N. A. A. A. C. P. was publish­

The N.
A. A. A. C P. letter was written in
reply to a lengthy editorial in which
the following paragraph occurs;
“ The Negro majority of 55,000
votes, had it g6ne to Dever instead
of to Thompson, would have turned
the election. .T h e Negroes were
brought to Chicago during the war,
were welcomed by Thompson, were
given the organized vice privileges
and are bound to Thompson, body

NEGRO LABOR WINS
Appeal For Extension Of Opportun­
ity Is Based On Proof Of Ability
(Reorint—Christian Science Monitor)
CHICAGO, April 9.—The attitude
of white labor toward the Negro is
broadening, as ia that of the employ­
er, T. Arnold Hill of New York, di­
rector of the department of industri­
al relations of the National Urban
League, told a conference here on tbe
study of the Negro in industry.
As a result of a recent campaign
in Boston to open up new opportun­
ities for the Negro, the Urban Lea­
gue there has added to its office staff
to handle the surprisingly large in­
crease in applications for Negro help,
Mr. Hill stated.
This is significant
of progress made where-ever the pub­
lic has a correct view of the situation,
he said.
Mr Hill did not think that racial
antipathy was keeping the Negro
from obtaining better employment
but that it was tradition which pre­
vented giving him an opportunity at
certain kinds of skilled labor and pro­
fessional work.
However, the trend
was changing and Negroes were more
and more proving their ability to
serve well in tasks of greater skill
and responsibility.
The appeal for
increased opportunity in industry is
being made on the basis o f ability
and not on basts of citizenship.
Perhaps Ohio has done more than
any other state in granting oppor­
tunities for the Negro in iron and
steel industries, he continued.
M. M. Hennessey, personnel direc­
tor of the Argo Products Company.
Argo. 111., manufacturers of corn
starch products, told the conference
that his experience with the Negro
workers had been highly satisfactory.
There must be an educational cam­
paign to find better openings for Ne­
gro employees, declared Ira Dea
Reid, industrial secretary of the New
York Urbane League.
An effort
should be made to place Negroes in
apprentice schools, he said.
