Pull LMAN P0RTERS GET PAY INCREASE
Notice Of Increase Received as
Union Holds sstionaI conventien

Chicago, Sept. 2 (ANP)-Pull-
man p~orters from all over the ma
ton here in attendance at the con-
vention marking the 18th anniver-
sary of the founding Of the Brother
hood of Sleeping Car Porters,
heard the joyful news Wednesday
that the Company had signed an
agreement boosting their wages
and that all Pullman porters and
maids get a flat increase of $12
per month.
The agreement involves a total
increase of 81, $4,000 per year di-
vided among 10000 employees in
Guiding porters, maids, car washers
and other workers. Other conces-
sions include time and a half for
overtime; Ia cents per hour in
crease for station duty and ten
cents increase per a for cleaning.
A new set of working months con-
sist of 240 hours-thus giving por-
tiers and maids a simple method for
computing their time.
The negotiations lasting four
months, were completed under SUI
pervision of the National Mediation
Board. This agreement is the first
between the Pullman Company and
the brotherhood since the latter
vas granted sole bargaining rights
in 1885, and comes after a persis-
tent and oftimes discouraging bat
tie waged by the union.
The anniversary program was
held last week at the Brotherhood
headquarters on South Michigan
avenue, the meeting being climaxed
Friday by a victory ball and recep-
tion at Savoy ballroom. The ami
versary program was held in honor
of the Ladies' Auxiliary of the Bro
therhood, who for IL years have
worked side by side with their men
folk to make the organization a
success.
The general working rules are
some of the best that are made
by any trade unfcn in the country,
for in compiling agreement most Of
the o~utstading agreements of other
railroad and non railroad unions
were consulted, and the best fea-
lures for incorporation In the por-
tiers union contract.

New York, Sept. 2 by Tommy
Berry for ANP)-For the first
time in the history of New York's
Underground railway system, ele-
ven Negroes have passed apprent-
iceships as conductors on the new
Str Avenue Lines and may serve
as engineers on regular passenger
service.
According to William r. Tolliver,
rs St. Nicholas Place, at least five
years of railroad service is required
before becoming eligible to serve
as conductors. The conductors must
then serve two years more before
they IAN take the civil service ex-
animation to become engineers. In
a recent examination, 144 conduct
ors were eligible. Out of this num-
Der, 80 passed for promotion. IL
were colored, and II white.
The. duties. to which these motor
men are assigned before they take
up regular passenger service is the
preparation of trains for regular
runs, taking them in and out of
service, and working in various
stations and yards. As the system
extends throughout the Bronx,
Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Queens,
including the new Flushing Worlds
Fair lines, these men will go on
service as they move up on the
list.
William Tolliver was appointed
assistant dispatcher, but declined
the appointment because he was on
the motorman's list. He was the
only NEGRO to pass the assistant
dispatchers examination. Tolliver,
who is enthusiastic about his work
says the system is controlled by
ono Of the most perfect safety de-
vices known to engineering. A
s~mash-up is highly improbable. The
trains are controlled exclusively by
automatic time signals, for in
stance, if a motorman should die
at the the controls, the train stops
automatically the instant his hand
leaves the throttle. This system is
known as the dead Mans Valve"

ScOttsbOro Defense
Denies Compromise
Py Morris Shapiro

AT Decatur, Judge Callahan in
denying motions for icy trial in
the Scottsboro cases stated that Il
"hard and fast agreement was
made in July for the termination
of the defense. The Committee has
no knowledge of nor was il a party
to any such agreement. Samuel S.
Leibowitz, chief defense counsel,
has time and again denied any such
agreement and is in complete ac-
cord with the committee in its pre-
sent task of vigorously prosecuting
the appeals which now follow the
decision denying new trials. II can
not be too emphatically stated that
his committee, believing as it does
in the complete innocence of the
nine boys, would not for one mo-
ment consider any agreement
which would mean a death sentence
for one boy and virtual life sen
fences for the other four boys. W.
therefore take direct issue with
Judge Callahan on the question of
compromise and advise all friends
of the defense that there is no
agreement and that appeals will
be vigorously %procesuted looking to
the unconditional release of all
the defendants.

Four More Senators Predict A Victory
A~nti-Lyneh Bill
Gains Supporters
As Session Ends

Washington, Sept. Pin state
ments issued here just prior to
tho adjournment of Congress, four
more senatore-Arthur Capper,
Kansas J. Buckley, Ohio;
Benne.o Unamp Clark, Missouri;
and Frederick Van Mugs, Indiana
-expressdd confidence that the
Wagner, Van Nuys-G avagan anti
lynching bill will be passed at the
next session of Congress, o that
it is a special order of business on
the Senate calendar.
Senator Clark said: 1T is my
belief that agreement made, yes
terday for making nti-!ynching
bill special order for very begin
ming of next session was best pos
sFole solution = problem for ear
lest consideration. At this session
we would have been confronted by
pressure of administration mea-
sures and desires for adjournment
which wonld have prevented US
from presen" ing our full strength
on cry occasion. Under agreement
r,ade wa h"ve passed the obstacle
of opposi+'on to consideration
which has held up the bill so long.
In my Judgment the action taken
means certain passage of the bill
very early in the next session."
Senator Capper: Il feel that
those of us who favor this legisla-
ton should take encouragement
from the fact that we know definite
that it will be taken up
and disposed of by the Senate ear
ly in the next session. Certainly l
hope for it's passage at that time
and I shall do everything in my
power to bring about favorable
action on it,"
Senator Van Mugs: "The action
taken by the Senate on the Wag-
ner-V Van Mugs anti lynching bill
was approved by me. In my opin-
ion it insures a vote and a favor
able vote at the beginning of our
next session. All supporters of the
measure joined in the procedure"
Senator Buckley: 81 was glad
to support Senator Wagner's eff
forts and l really believe we have
made definite progress in getting
the anti-lynching bill made the un
finished business sometime during
the month of January. 1t looks as
though final success is in sight"
