WASHINGTON, (JPS) — Des-
cribing,.. Detroit as a "powder
keg" of • racial bigotry which
could be set off by postwar dis-
crimination in employ ment,
Clarence Anderson, - executive
secretary of the Meftropolitan De-
troit Council on Fair Employ-
ment Practices, said that it would
take a permanent FEPC- to main-
tain "equitable order" after -the
war. He testified at a Senate sub-
committee hearing on a bill to
establish a. permanent Fair Em-
ployment Practices Committee.
"When we think about the
coming reconversion and curtail-
ment of production, we shudder
at the thought of discrimination
and strife which may arise in the
consequent lay-off and rehiring,"
Mr. Anderson declared: "It would
seem expedient and practical to
prove to the entire world that
we have the capacity to deal
justly and amicably with people
in our midst who have faith and
color unlike our own."

Gov. Dewey's Rosh
Hashanah Message
ALBANY, N. Y. (JTA) — Gov.
Thomas E. Dewey issued through
the Jewish Telegraphic Agency
the folloWing Rosh Hashanah
message.
"As Governor of the State of
New York and on my own behalf,
I am happy to extend to the peo-
ple of Jewish faith my heartiest
greetings and sincere good wishes
at the beginning of their New
Year.
"There never was a time, I
believe, in the history of the
Jewish people when the celebra-
tion of Rosh Hashanah was so
pregnant with meaning. At this
particular date, it should also
bring consolation, and hope.
"This year marks the destruc-
tion of the enemy who made it
the first article of their creed to
torture and destroy the Jewish
people. In these painful years, all
have learned the grim truth: that
those oppressors are the enemies
of all decency, of all freedom, of
all civilization.
Hails Jewish Soldiers
"In the battle for freedom,
soldiers of Jewish faith have
played a brilliant and thrilling
part, notable for valor and en-
durance. While we all rejoice
with you, we also mourn with
you for all the brave fighting
men who have perished. We
mourn with you, too, for the un-
told, unparalleled sufferings and
destruction inflicted upon those
of your faith in the conquered
countries. We feel with you, too,
the horror and the incredulity at
the unexampled and unbelievable
mass destruction which has been
visited upon the Jewish commun-
ities in Europe as the Nazi hordes
flee desperately from the doom
that pursues them throughout the _
Continent of Europe.
"You have occasion to celebrate
your 5705th Nelk Year in the
spirit of hope, such as has not
been possible for a long, long
time. You have cause, too, for
hope that the quickening tempo
of our victorious armies may soon
bring to an end the assault upon
civilization in Europe.
Emerged Stronger
"The people of Jewry also have
the consolation that • from each
successful trial that they have
undergone, they have emerged
stronger. Persecution after per-
secution has served only to
toughen and weld the character
of the Jewish people to a vitality
which nothing, can corrOde.
Americans of • Jewish
faith have contributed mightily
to our culture, our polity, our
citizenship, our respect for the
dignity of the individual. May
these essential qualities- .of a
civilized world be brought to suf-
fering peoples everywhere.
"We have reason to believe that
the coming year will be inscrjbed
as a truly happy one."
