Of Post War Riots' Washington, Dec. 5, (P The! possibility of postwar race riots were foreseen today by a Con gressional committee "unless we safeguard the rights of minori ties." Even now, the House labor com mittee added, trouble is brewing among millions of American workers "who are discriminated against by being forced to accept the positions. It made the statements in report arguing for a permanent fair employment practices com mission of seven members. "That discrimination in em ployment because of race, color, creed, national origin or ances try is a widespread practice in all sections of the country is unfor itunately true. "The four largest minorities who suffer from such practices are our Negroes, our 5,000,000 Jews, our 3,000,000 Americans of Mexican or Span ish origin and our 5,000,000 for eign born citizens.

Trade unions have also openly discriminated against non whites At least 13 national labor organi zations with a membership of more than a million members re fuse to admit Negroes to mem' bership."

VfCrcSVATRO UOL SORT OF A TIGHT FIT ISO IT? Like a tight collar that chokes off your breath, the wiring systems of many American homes today are choking off their electric service. Even in homes built as late as ten years ago! Why? Because some homes, then, were wired only for simple, general lighting; and a toaster; an iron; a vacuum cleaner; and a percolator! And now, today, in those same homes, loaded on the same wiring, electricity has been put to countless new uses, bringing conveniences and labor saving services then' not even dreamed of, much less planned for! How do you know whether your wiring system is overloaded? If fuses blow or lights go dim as your refrigerator starts, or as you plug in another lamp or appliance, you need more circuits and larger wire! And haven't you found, too, that you need many more Ready boxes (electrical outlets) so that you can easily and quickly plug in all your modern appliances and lamps? Make adequate wiring and sufficient Readyboxes your No. 1 postwar project you'll need to if you are to enjoy all your present electrical conveniences plus the many more which tomorrow has in store for you!
