Labor Secretary
Backs FEPC Bill

WASHINGTON (JTA)—Labor
Department support for bills that
would establish a Fair `Employ-
ment Practices Commission and
that would admit a number -of
displaced persons to the United
States is reaffirmed in the an-
nual report for 1947 of Secretary
of Labor Lewis Schwellenbach.
The freedom to earn a liveli-
hood for one's self and one's
family without discrimination
"on the irrelevant bases of race,
religion, Color, national origin, or
ancestry is no less important than
the more generally recognized
and accepted freedoms," the re-
port points out. Such discrimina-
tion is "a constant threat to wage
levels adequate to sustain : an
American standard of living."
The Labor Department also
backs the passage of legislation
to admit 400,000 European dis-
placed persons, predicting that
it would have "beneficial rather
than harmful consequences for

our country.
