Johnson is reported studying a recommends- tion for intensified training ot we- eroes to lessen racial job dis crimination. . i; As chairman of the President's ( Committee on Equal Employment i Opportunities, Johnson has re ceived reports indicating that lack :of skills in engineering, cnen jlslry, physics and biology are con ftributine to a higher rate of un- ; employment among Negroes thanj ; among whites, -He also has been told that un Ion rules which disqualify many vNegroes from membership are In- .creasing the number of Negro Jobless. . ' , , . .'When Johnson was named to Jiead the committee early this month. President Kennedy clothed ;it with authority to impose stiff penalties on contractors for racial ,or religious discrimination on gov- ernment projects. The Johnson -committee also, took over thai ; duties of the old Government Em ployes' Committee. J: The vice president was report ed to have insisted that enforce ' ment operations be placed under Secretary of Labor Arthur J. ' Goldberg, named as vice chair man of the group. Goldberg may! ;pass the primary responsibility ' along to Jerry R. Holleman, as sistant secretary and former la bor union official. :Thus complaints such as that Ttiade Monday by Clarence Mitch ell of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored Peo ple (NAACP) will be channeled to the Labor Department for review and action. Mitchell charged in a telegram to Johnson that South Carolina plants holding government con tracts are discriminating against Negroes in hiring workers. Johnson apparently has re served for himself and members of the parent committee the broad field of policy-making. One of the factors brought to .the vice president's attention is that most Negroes with the op portunity to gain a higher educa. tion go into medicine or dentist ry. He has been told that it is essential that educational work be done in Negro communities to convince parents that their chil dren should enter other fields which offer greater chance for advancement. The committee also has run into the difficulty that many skilled crafts are handed down from fa ther and son. Negroes encounter barriers, for instance, when they seek the apprenticeship training necessary to become a journey man carpenter. To counter these economic fac tors, Johnson is thinking in terms of a training program aimed dl rectly at lifting the skills of Negro workers. The committee has been told that Negro unemployment is dis proportionate to that of whites in many areas. It has learned that in Chicago, where 6.7 per cent of the work force is unemployed, 17.3 per cent of Negroes are jobless. In Detroit, Negro unemploy ment is calculated at 39 per cent, compared with an over-all aver age of 13 per cent. In Cleveland, unemployment is at 20 per cent for Negroes against an over-all average of 6.3 per cent. The figures for fort Wayne, Ind., list 44 per cent of Negroes out of jobs as in an area where 0.3 per cent of the work force is unemployed. JFK Wage Biii Manager Sefs Sights On Victory WASHINGTON (UPI) - Thelthe minimum wage from the House manager of President Ken- present $1 an hour to $1.15 four nedy's minimum wage bill set his months after enactment of the sights today on action by the end of the week. But he avoided a victory prediction. ' Rep. James Roosevelt, D-Calif., said House debate was started Tuesday on Kennedy's proposal to raise the minimum wage to $1.25 an hour. He said he hoped final action would come Thurs day, but it might be delayed .un til Friday. The timetable is of some im portance because many liberal Democrats from Eastern metro politan areas customarily leave Washington on Thursday. This could hurt Kennedy s bill. Stacked against it is a $1.15 .minimum wage proposal ad vanced by a Republican-Southern Democratic coalition. An identical measure last year bumped off a bill similar to Kennedy s request. Roosevelt noted somewhat rue fully that the House surely would finish with the bill Thursday if it adopted the coalition measure. As for the administration bill lie said, "We're still facing an up hill tight, im not sanguine about it. ( Rep. William Ayres, R-Ohio, who with Rep. A. Paul Kitchin D-N.C, sponsored the coalition measure, already has predicted victory for his bill by at least 25 votes Roosevelt's bill would increase law and to $1.25 two years later. It would extend new coverage to 4.3 million workers, bringing them to $1.25 an hour and a 40 hour week in four steps. The Ayres-K 1 1 c h i n measure would provide $1.15 an hour at the' same time as the Roosevelt measure, but go no further. It would extend coverage to 1.4 million workers, and provide $1 an hour minimums with no over time provisions. Beryllium Metal Key To America Space Plan DELTA, Utah UPI One of the keys to America's success in manned flight through space may lie in the nation's ability to ob tain an adequate domestic supply of beryllium a unique metal lighter than aluminum and strong er than steel. To assure this supply, there's a search going on over the vast, sagebrush-dotted mountain and desert wastelands along the Utah Nevada border that gives prom ise of success. If tile search pays off, and means of processing and fabricat ing beryllium are improved, the range of America's space craft of the future and their ability to withstand the heat and radiation of outer space w ill be enhanced tremendously. Currently, the United States ob tains most of its beryllium from foreign nations particularly Bra zil, Argentina, the Union of South Africa and India. In 1059, latest year for which figures are avail able, American industry con sumed just under 500,000 pounds of beryllium of which less than 20,000 pounds came from domes tic sources. Mining By-product The available supply of the strong, light metal is virtually all in the form ot beryl a gem like rock that is a byproduct of feldspar, mica and lithium min ing. The beryl gems are selected from the ore piles by manual lab or before they are shipped to processors. It s to get around this by-product, hand-labor status that sever al; of the nation s major mining companies are devoting consider able lime, energy, research and financing. In the Topaz Mountain district, 50 miles northwest of Delta and more than 100 miles southwest of Salt Lake City, major claims have been staked by Vitro Chemical Co., Combined Metals Co. and the newly formed Beryllium Re sources, Inc. Anaconda Company, one of the giants in the U.S. cop per industry, has recently expand ed exploration operations on com paratively nearby Mt. Wheeler, in eastern Nevada. Bruce W. Odium of Los Ange les, president of Beryllium Re sources, Inc., hopes his firm will start construction soon on the first processing mill in the country de voted entirely to beryllium. The mill, located near Delta. will cost about $1 million to con struct and equip. It will employ new, secret flotation process de veloped for beryllium resources by Edward Van Dornick, Southern California chemist. Use Other Ones Dr. Norman C. Williams of Salt Lake City, University of Utah ge ologist and a vice president of Beryllium Resources, stressed in a UPI interview that one of the major virtues of the mill would be its designed ability to use non- beryl ores. This, he said, would help free the nation of dependence on foreign beryllium sources. , application in the nuclear indus Concentrates from the Utah mill try, where it is used for reactori ...ill k ,JJ In "anu anil oil hull. . 1 """"V y - y control rods, and in instrument CIS, UIUU1II BQ1U- UIU1EI1II1, Leaflet Brings Charge Of Libel PORTLAND CAP) A charge that trustees of the Oregon-Washington Carpenters - Employers Health and Welfare Trust Fund were libeled by a leaflet is being argued in circuit court here. De fendant is E. E. Davis, Portland. Last April a leaflet was distribu ted in which the fund's handling was questioned. Eight trustees said Davis distributed it and li beled them to the extent of $25,000. They also asked $25,000 punitive damages. The trial opened Monday before Circuit Judge Wesley F. Brown ton, La Grande, sitting here. there are I wo major beryllium fabricators in tlie nation Beryl lium Corp., Reading, Pa., and Brush Beryllium Co., Cleveland, Ohio. Brush Beryllium holds one of the major sub-contracts for work on the re-entry capsule for Proj ect Mercury, the United States manned space flight edcavor. The Ohio firm has fabricated a series of large "dishes" that form the entire rear wall of the cap sule. These discs, 74 indies in di ameter and 1 inch thick, weigh 350 pounds each. Beryllium was specified for the capsule wall not only because of the metal's strength and lightness, but because of its ability to hold its shape at extremely high tem peratures and its effectiveness as a radiation shield. Has Other Uses Odium, 38-year-old only son of financier Floyd Odium, pointed out that beryllium also has wide manufacture, where it is prized for its strength. Gyroscopes in the inertia guidance system em ployed by missiles are frequently made of beryllium. He predicted a "big future" for beryllium in many uses as sup plies and fabricating techniques improve. The government now is the industry's major customer, but Odium said that in the future "the non-military possibilities of j beryllium are just staggering. .....call rna ' RW.we truck Local vfcN" 33$ Rely on our master watch maker for the finest watch repair service available!
