The dav for this tvpe of think¬

"Four, there is no limit to

this nroposed restriction.

“Europeans are not ignorant,”
she said. “They read, and they
visit Ameirca. They are quite
familiar with the race situation
in this country.”
She also rapped Negro artists
who agree to play caricature roles
on the screen, radio and televi¬
sion. After being reminded that
Negroes accept such roles for
monetary gains, Josephine em¬
phasized the fact that “honor
comes first.”
“Before I’d accept such roles.
I’d walk the streets,’ she said. “It
makes me sick!”
Asked what she missed most
after leaving the United States,
Miss Baker answered with a
smirk, “Missed most? Why
haven’t missed anything—I did
miss my mother, but now that she
is with me, I don’t miss her any
more.”

In Washington she stayed at

After the press conference, Miss

Here she talked with the man-

ut that Washington is the cap-

DeWitt summarized the results
of the survey by sayin n : “The
history of employment of Negroes
in the jobs listed has been very
satisfactory. In most cases, the
type of Negro applicant who is
available is superior to apnlicants
who have been employed previ-

available in greater numbers
“With the labor shortages de¬
veloping in many areas due to
mobilization and defense expan¬
sion . . . thp greatest source of
untapped labor in the south and
in many other areas is the huge
number of Negro workers who
are working at jobs below their

ployed because of the undemo-
hiring practices of the
