welfare of the Negro postal workers of the U. S., there was
little play for the 500 delegates and-vlsitors here lor the 21st

did.
Representing many thousands of the 95,000 Negroes in
the Postal Service, the NAPE took vicious swings at the loyal
ty program which has seen 14 NAPE members again threat
ened with loss of their jobs; it blasted the appointment of
Governor James F. Byrnes of South CafOl^na to the UN; and
transacted business aimed at improving the lot of Negroes
in the postal field and to strengthening the NAPE itself.
