PROTEST MADE
L 0 OFFICIALS
BY EMPLOYEES
Workers Charge They
Have Not Received
Any Promotions

A serious indictment OF racial dis
elimination has been made against
Pos master Roscoe Hueston. in a
letter the local branch OF the Ma
tional Alliance OF Postal Employees
have sent 10 a number OF govern
ment officials, including Postmas-
ter General James Farley.
The letter. which was mailed
Monday. was signed by the secre-
tary of the local branch. Mrs. Mary
+. Glenn.
Adopt Resolution
Accompanying the letter was a
resolution adopted by the branch
in which the members accused
Hueston OF making approximately
thirty promotions to supervisory
positions, and only one colored."
The letter also points out that
fhe ,postmaaters On Chicago. New
York, Cleveland. cincinnati, Brook
Ign, and Philadelphia, have advanc.
ed colored employees. They charge
that Hueston promised 10 do thu
same II they would submit evi
dence. but. with the evidence In his
hands, they charge that he has no
done anything.
The letter reads as follows:
Dear Sir:
| The Detroit Postmaster promis
ed the National Alliance OF Posta
Employees that il we could pro
duce authentic information as 4

us the proper recognition.
During the present administra
ton Il has been the pleasure Of
our Postmaster to make approx.
mately 2S promotions in various
positions OF supervisory character
but one OF these was Colored. In
the same period OF time assign
ments to preferred positions. al
you can imagine in Metropolis oil
this size, have been many; we
loathe to say none have been Col
ored. Over the same period of time
many promotions to special clerk
ships outside OF the quota have
been made and again no colored.
