	FEPC - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		FEPC was the most significant breakthrough ever for Blacks and women on the job front.
		In the private sector the FEPC was generally successful in enforcing non-discrimination in the North, it did not attempt to challenge segregation in the South, and in the border region its intervention led to hate strikes by angry white workers.
		In 1948, President Truman called for a permanent FEPC, anti-lynching legislation, and the abolishment of the poll tax.

		The FEPC reports show the formative stages of the struggle for leadership from the Executive Branch to end discrimination in employment, a goal that defined the movement.
		The FEPC’s Final Report, which Mitchell helped prepare, noted: The Committee’s wartime experience shows that in the majority of cases discriminatory practices by employers and unions can be reduced or eliminated by simple negotiations when the work of the negotiator is backed up by firm and explicit National policy.
		FEPC’s unsolved cases show that the Executive authority is not enough to insure compliance in the face of stubborn opposition.

	Race, Jobs, and the War: The FEPC in the Midwest, 1941-46
		The head of the WMC, Paul V. McNutt, was not sympathetic to the goals of the FEPC and began to limit its activities, according to Kersten.
		One of the most important activities of the FEPC was helping to negotiate settlements in these cases (in an appendix, Kersten provides a list of hate strikes in the Midwest that were settled with the aid of the FEPC).
		More generally, Kersten says that the FEPC provided advice and aid to employers who were seeking ways to integrate their plants, in the hope of avoiding such walkouts.

		The FEPC does not expect its work to be a standard, but to point the way if this proves productive.
		FEPC proposes to focus on a minimum set of time-related services, but allow additional services to be added as needed.

	The Harvard Crimson :: News :: FEPC Probes Student Charges of Job Discrimination at Hazen's
		Complaints were filed with the FEPC ten days ago by two students, Chao-Chu Chi '52 and Thomas L. Roberts '50, who claimed that they were refused part-time jobs at Hazen's because of their color.
		The FEPC investigator also checked the job qualifications of the plaintiffs with the University Office of Student Employment.
		If the FEPC decides that Hazen's has discriminated unfairly, Whouley will be summoned to an informal conference with Elwood S. McKenney '38, one of three FEPC investigating commissioners.

	Andrew E. Kersten / Race, Jobs, and the War
		Rejecting claims that fl advancement during the war was due primarily to shortages of labor, Race, Jobs, and the War contends that the FEPC made significant strides in allaying discrimination, especially when local authorities cooperated.
		Fighting an uphill battle to dismantle deep-seated and virulent racism, the FEPC succeeded in breaking some racial barriers, settling complaints, and pursuing a vigorous educational campaign to foster more harmonious industrial relations between white and minority workers.
		The FEPC also acted as a catalyst, inspiring midwestern local communities to rejuvenate and transform their own fights against employment discrimination.

		For FePc the sample bias was +0.10 V and the tunneling current was 1.6 nA.
		As seen in Figure 4 the cross section was chosen to pass through the center of an FePc molecule (bottom center of image), across the benzene rings of two different arms of adjacent FePc's, and again through the center of another FePc, in a repeating pattern.
		While the maximum height of the FePc now appears to be about 0.20 nm, the benzene rings now appear only about 0.11 nm tall, making the relative height of the central metal even greater than in the once air exposed sample.

		In spite of the fact that Congress allowed the federal FEPC to expire, the model of government response that the agency provided during the war served as an inspiration for civil rights activists on the state and local levels.
		As with the federal FEPC files, the state and local files cover a wide range of activities from lobbying efforts to create local fair employment practices agencies to the monitoring of local FEPC operations.
		The FEPC General Office Files contains the core of the materials of the federal FEPC, but there are many special files that pertain to the federal agency, especially its staffing and bureaucratic history.

	Albert Parker: The Negro in the Post-War World (June 1943)
		The FEPC was set up by Roosevelt to ward off the projected March-On-Washington in the summer of 1941, and was a concession without any teeth in it.
		Despite its impotence, the FEPC was the object of much opposition, especially from the Southern Democratic poll tax bloc in Washington, who hated it as a symbol of the government’s right to “encroach” in any way on the right of the states to treat the Negroes as they please.
		This opposition resulted, in the summer of 1942, in Roosevelt’s transfer of the FEPC from the jurisdiction of the White House to that of McNutt’s War Manpower Commission,whose finances are controlled by Congressional committees largely dominated by the poll taxers.

	H102 Lecture 26: Civil Rights in an Uncivil Society
		The FEPC was supposed to enforce the order to ban discriminatory hiring within the federal government and in corporations that received federal contracts.
		As it turned out, the FEPC achieved very little, in part because the committee could not work pro-actively and could only investigate reports of discrimination after it had received a complaint.
		FDR was unwilling to push the FEPC into vigorous action, since he was more concerned with winning the war and maintaining his coalition with Southern Democrats.

		Abstract: I studied tactics by males to detect fertile females and achieve forced extra-pair copulations (FEPC) and female responses to FEPCs in a non-migratory, asynchronously breeding population of White-cheeked Pintails (Anas bahamensis) in the Bahamas.
		FEPC attempts directed at neighboring females were more likely to occur during the female's fertile period than FEPC attempts directed at non-neighbors and a large proportion (44%) of FEPC attempts involved neighboring pairs.
		Females vigorously resisted FEPC attempts by repeatedly diving, flying away and hiding and were sometimes chased to exhaustion.

		From 1943 to 1945, 83 FEPC cases were filed involving the Brooklyn Navy Yard: 44 by fl men; 18 by fl women; 19 from Jewish men; and two others.
		Of these, 54 were dismissed by the FEPC on their merits; 7 were withdrawn by the complainants, and 22 were deemed by the complainant to be satisfactorily adjusted.
		The number of fl and other minority workers in the navy yard grew during the war to about 5500, but they were part of the duration-and-six-months temporary force and most of them were let go with all the others at war's end.

		Materials from the early 1940s files shed light on the NAACP's role in the establishment of the Fair Employment Practices Commission (FEPC) in 1942 and the organization's pleading before the FEPC until the agency's demise in 1946.
		When the FEPC expired, the association turned to those states and cities where employment discrimination was illegal.
		Outside the courtroom, the association lobbied Congress to reestablish an FEPC, and it used moral and political suasion with labor unions to open the ranks of the labor movement to fl workers.

		The MOWM began in January 1941 when A. Phillip Randolf, president of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters issued a call for 10,000 fls to march on Washington to demand jobs in the defense industry and to end the segregation in the armed services.
		McNeal, an organizer for the St. Louis Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, and David Grant, an attorney, organized the St. Louis branch of the MOWM in the spring of 1942.
		The FEPC opened an office in St. Louis in October, 1944 and had one of the heaviest case loads in the nation.

		Randolph therefore kept the pressure on the administration to provide adequate funding and staffing for the FEPC.
		Although fl employment in federal jobs increased from 60,000 in 1941 to 200,000 in 1945, the FEPC could not directly regulate private employers or labor unions.
		Moreover, despite these limitations, attempts to make the FEPC a permanent government agency never generated broad-based political support.

		He agreed to have th FEPC prohibit discrimination in defense plants, but he refused to address the issue of segregation in the military, which had been Randolph's original concern.
		The lure of defense industry jobs and promise of the FEPC triggered an enormous migration of African Americans from the South to defense plants.
		As a result, he increased the FEPC budget to nearly half a million dollars and replaced the part-time Washington, D.C., staff with a professional full-time staff distributed throughout the country.
