AVCO COMPANY IS FIRST MAJOR
EMPLOYER IN NEW JOB PROGRAM
WASHINGTON- The Avco Cor- j
poration has become the first m^jor;
employer to participate in the Presi
dent's Test Program for Job Develop-'
ment, a new program which offers
private employers a broad range of
Federal assistance to encourage and
help them hire the hard-core un
employed.
The announcement was made at a I
joint press conference conducted by
Secretary of Labor Willard Wirtz,
Secretary of Commerce Alexander
Trowbridge, and Avco President
James R. Kerr.
Avco will participate in the new
project by building a printing plant
in Boston's Roxbury area which will
give work to over 200 hardcore
unemployed.
Secretary Wirtz and Mr. Kerr
signed a contract providing Avco
with up to $1,148,000 in Labor
Department funds to help defray the (
cost of training workers for jobs at
the new plant.

ment excess supplies. The materials

Secretary Wirtz commended Avco
on its participation in the program,
stating that "the jobs that you are
providing for the unemployed in
| Boston's Roxbury area are the live
ammunition in the war on poverty." ;
He added, "The problem of un- i
!
employment will be met if private in- >
dustry follows your example."
So far twenty-one other major
corporations have expressed support i
for the Test Program for Job Deve- j
lopment, which was announced by .
President Johnson six weeks ago.
These corporations are in the process
of formulating plans to establish new
facilities to hire the hard-core un-j
employed or to add hard-core un-,
employed to existing operations.
Boston is one of the first five
target cities for the test program.
Others are Chicago, Los Angeles,
San Antonio and Washington, D. C.

Church Sends
jFood to Hungry
!ln Delta Area
1 - J£t !
f GREENVTLLfe, Mtts—Thirty'
j thousand pounds of food for
| distribution to hungry Negroes
| in the Mississippi Delta have
i been sent to the Delta Ministry
Jby the fifth district of the
African Methodist Church.
On hand when the shipment
i arrived in Greenville was Bish
op H. Thomas Primm, Nash
j ville. Tenn., presiding bishop
jof the fifth district. Bishop
I Primm also gave the Delta
Ministry $5,000 contributed by
members of his district to help
in buying food stamps for
families without incomes.
The Delta Ministry is a
three-year old project of the
National Council of Churches
working with the poor and dis
possessed Negroes of the Mis
sissippi Delta in the areas of
community and economic de
velopment.
Representatives of the Na
tional Council of Churches, the
U.S. Department of Agricul
ture and other A.M.E. officials
were in Greenville when the
food shipment arrived last
week. The Delta Ministry will
cooperate with local A.M.E.
churches in distribution of the
food and money.
Contributions totaling more
| than $13,000 for food stamps
! have been received by the
1 Delta Ministry since April
1 when the near-starvation con
ditions of thousands of Missis
sippi Negroes began to receive
national attention. Money, food
and clothing to help no-income
families have come from 34
states and Canada.
In response to this increase
in aid available, the Delta Min
istry has extensively expanded
its welfare and relief program
in eight Delta Counties in Mis
sissippi Washington, Bolivar,
Tallahatchie, Sunflower, Hum- j
phreys, Yazoo, Sharkey and Is
saquena. It has been able to |
assist 3,000 no-income persons ,
in purchasing food stamps. i
Donated food and clothing j
are used in emergency relief
situations while families are j
awaiting enrollment in the food j
stamp and welfare programs .
or acquisition of job training j
and employment
Introduction this year of the
federal minimum wage has in
creased the number of unem
ployed agriculture workers to
a new high. In August, tradi
tionally a month of high em
ployment for seasonal labor,
13,000 persons were added to
food assistance programs in
Mississippi Observers close to
the situation indicate that the
number of unemployed families
without incomes will steadily
increase through the winter.

sembly on Wednesday, Novem
ber 22, at 10:00 a.m. was the
Rev. F. D. Terry, Pastor of the

two pupils from the Trainable
Class, Denise Harris and Hen
rietta Pace.

rendered by the Choral Group
of the school.

climaxed the program with re
marks and announcements to
the student body.

After you've passed forty,
life seems to become more
complicated instead of getting
simpler.
After a man finds out that
he can make a speech he be
gins to talk on the slightest
provocation.
