Minneapolis spokesman. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1940-06-07

Democrat Introduces Measure
If the bill sponsored in the Sen
ate Interstate Commerce Commit
tee by Senator Sherman Minton
(Dem.) Of Indiana and reported
favorably out of committee passes
the Senate and House it will re-
duce the earnings of Pullman
porters in access of 100000 per
year.
For many years qualified port
ers known as porters-in-charge
have done the work of both a sleep
ing car conductor and a porter on
lines where the revenue required
services only of porter. For this
the porters who operated on such
runs were given additional COM
pensation amounting to about SIS
monthly.
The bill is being sponsored in
Congress by the Order of Sleeping
Car Conductors, an independent
union which is not affiliated with
either the A. F. of L. or CLIO. Its
membership is open only to white
persons.
Considerable resentment has
been voiced against proponents of
the bill who have injected the race
issue into their attempt to pass it.
One supporter claimed at the
committee hearing that white
women and children passengers
were not safe on a sleeping car
alone with a Negro porter! This
amazing falsehood was offered as
justification for the suggested
amendment to the Interstate Com
merce law in face of the facts
which show there have been very
few cases of record where porters
have molested either men or wom-
en- passengers on their cars. The
Pullman Company representatives
said that the company has paid out
thousands of dollars to settle cases
where white employees (presuma-
bly, conductors) have been accused
of making advances to female pas
sengers.

Organizations Against Bill

OASoAnGobAOAlS against Dill
In Minneapolis and St. Paul
churches and civic organizations of
both races have passed resolutions
and forwarded them to Minnesota's
Senators, Henrik Shpstead and
Ernest Lundeen. Individuals are
asked to protest the passage of the
bill to the Senators and request
that each of them vote against it.
Would Cost Twin Citians $4,000
1t is estimated that passage of
the bill will cause Twin City Ne
gro employees of the company to
lose at least $1,000 dollars a
month, or $4,000 annually.
Among the churches which i'm
mediately took action when the bill
was brought to their attention was
Camphor NJ. E. Church, st. Paul,
of which Rev. Clarence Nelson is
pastor, and St. Peter A. M. E.
Church, Minneapolis, with Rev. C.
F. Stewart as pastor.
Citizens are urged to write to
Senators Lundeen and Shipstead,
care of the Senate Office Building,
Washington, D. C.

THE EVENING STAR WASHINGTON D C., SATURDAY, JUNE eo

The caption under the plan gives
the key to the planting.
The advent of warm weather has
been so delayed this year there still
remains ample time to plant gar
den of this type.
Interesting for Children.
There Is something very soul-sat-
isfying about the ability to walk out
IN your own back yard and harvest
your own vegetables just a few
moments before they are to be pre-
pared for the table. Under those
circumstances, food tastes its best.
Best of all, however, a section OF
yard which might be covered with a
rather NANCY patch of lawn can
be made most attractive. Such a
garden would hold interest for
young children also, for they could
watch the process of growth from
the planting of the seed to the har-
vest.

Small Salad Garden
Worthwhile Project
For Backyard
May Be Used to Replace
NANCY Potch Of Lown
And Supply Table

Back in the minds of most home
owners there lies some inherited
urge to grow things and particularly
to grow things to eat.
1t does not take a large space to
develop salad garden" nor is such
garden at all disf1guring. Mar
garet NOVEL;, in another of her
series OF sketches aimed at the elm
nation OF unsightly backyards, to-
day illustrates how a small veee-
table garden may be laid out in a
minimum Of space and in a most
attractive manner.
Still Time for Planting.
In the plan as outlined by Miss
NOVEL;, a walk extends along three
sides of the garden with three inner
paths, giving easy access to all sec
tions for wedding and cultivation.
