LETTER FROM SIDNEY HILLMANS UNION IN GEORGIA
houses such as these are Go not AFL-built

Sidney Hillman. associate di-
rector Of OPM and president Of the
Amalgamated Clothing Workers OF
America (CIO). may not be in
favor of Patrick J. Currier and his
pre-fabricated homes, but a local
union or his organization in At
lanta, Ga, is very much Interested
in them.
This was revealed today in a
letter sent 10 the p. j. Currier
Lumber Company by Max Bagwell
of Local 365, ACWA, Atlanta.
BagweII asked the company for
quotations on the cost of pre=fahri-
Gated homes and the possibility OF
building a meeting hall by this
method.
Curriers' bid for pre-fabricated
homes on a defense housing prof.
ect has been turned down by Hill
man and has brought threat
from the ALL TO call a nationwide
strike on defense projects if Cur
rier is granted the contract.
Curriers' employees are members
of the United Construction Work
ers (CIOD and Hillman has re-
fused TO approve the Currier bid
because of an agreement the OPM
has with ALL that AFL labor will
be used exclusively in defense con-
Struction.

SPECIFIC CHARGE
T specifically charge the Grail

ing biased and not able to de-
termine a so-called winner In
their inquiry which they held
October '1S because there Is
nothing in the Railway Labor
Act which says they can held

reason for the board coming into
this case because there was
nothing for the board to medi-
ate. IL does not mediate dis

Leonard told the gathering.

Washington and place IL before

Board"
l,4OO LEAVE JOBS
Approximately 1,400 workers
marched from their important de-
tense jobs early Wednesday. Since
then the Department of Labor in
Washington has been asked TO
certify this strike for mediation.
According to Leonard the two
points that brought on the strike
were demands for a blanket Is
cent an hour wage increase, and
the use of women on machines at
lower wage scales than men en-
ployes.
Leonard said that perhaps an
early certification in Washington
would be impossible because he
had been told that the mediation
board was overloaded wit
cases"

oliver labor division of the

would move every building In
Washington to get this dispute

you we return to work imme-

Renew Fight
To Break Texas
White Primary

HOUSTON, Texas = (SNS)-T The
Texas state conference of NAACP
branches in cooperation with the as
sociation'S national office has re-
newed its fight to break the White
Primary" of this state. 5 1t.
Z. A complaint was filed here, Tues
day, January, Is, in the United
State District Court by Sidney Has
gett, qualified Negro who was de-
MED the right to vote in the Demo-
cratic primary last year. The action
was brought against Theodore Wer-
ner and John H. Blackburn, Judges
of the Primary elections, and seeks
$500 actual damages and $4,000
punitive damages for violation of
the Fifteenth Amendment to the
Constitution and federal laws pass
ed pursuant to the amendment.
Hasgett, qualified voter of the
10Th precinct in Houston, present
ed himself at the pools on August
"a, 1910 with his poll tax receipt,
and requested the right to vote in
the Democratic primary. This was
denied him on the grounds that he
was a Negro. Hasgett sought the
assistance of the NAACP.
The Texas state conference of the
NAACP branches, with the coopera-
ton of the associations national Of
flee, began on the case. w. j. Dur
ham of Sherman, Texas, has been
retained as local counsel. Mr.. Dur
ham requested the cooperation OF
Thurgood Marshall, special counsel;
VIM. H. HASTE, L. A. Ransom, J. N.
Nabrit and w. Robert Ming, Jr.,
members of the NAACP national
legal committee. The Texas State
Conference OF the NAACP branches
is raising a defense fund of $4,000
for the case.

In none of these efforts have
Negroes become overly enthusias..
tic, though Negro children fall
victims of this dread disease in
the same, if not greater, proper
ton than do white children.

annual drives is turned over to tie

Paralysis, Inc, of which MI.
Basil o. Conner is president A
percentage of the funds raised in
each locality is left to be spent by
local units of this organization
The balance is used to conduct a
nation wide campaign against the
disease.
FOR WHITE ONLY
The focal point of the national
effort has been centered at Warm
Springs, Ga, where an elaborate
center has been erected for white
sufferers of the disease. No IA
cilitieS had been provided there for
Negro patients.
This fact proved the chief COM
plain of many Negroes who chanced
to be approached for support OF
the drive and was used by many
as an excuse not to contribute.

surprisingly large number of Ne
groes, because they knew the bulk
of the funds would be turned over
to the local setup where their peo-
pie were being given aid through
clinics, generously gave to the
fund. Some of these have even
staged birthday balls.
No longer need Negroes hesitate
to rally whole-heartedly behind
this humanitarian movement, for
at Tuskegee has been erected an
Infantile Paralysis Center that
will equal in design, equipment and
personnel any to be found in the
world.

to be at Tuskegee on January IS
when the formal dedicatory pro-

Just as MI. O'Conner asserted
in his dedicatory address, which

Broadcast, this center is more than
just hospital, where patients
come seeking relief How true
that is in more than one way.
1t is a monumet to the skill
and genius of young Negro crafts
men. Plans for this beautiful
building were prepared by two
young men, George l.. Washing
ton, director of Tuskegee's School
OF Mechanical Industries, and
Louis Fry, head Of the division Of
agriculture. They decided on the

Of the Warm Springs Foundation
and the Denver Crippled Chill

The plans were accepted by the
