RAP DISCRIMINATION

The resolution written in unmistakable lang
uage demanded end to discrimination against
Negroes in plants holding contracts with. the
unien.
It was pointed out that curtailment of auto
bile production would seriously aggravate the
nrobIem of the Negro worker and that it woul0
be hard because of his for this class of work
or to get transferred from non-defense to defense
work"
The resolution passed without dissenting
vote by the executive board resolved that all plant
managements covered by UAW-CIO contracts be
immediately notified that any further racial dis
elimination will not be tolerated.; that the interna-
tional president appoint committee to make avail
able reports on the problems of Negro workers that
when dissenson occurs among Negro and White
workers, we recommend that the local union IN
volved establish joint committee to make sum
mary and investigation and report to the regional
director and national committee
BACK PRESIDENTIAL ORDER
The United Automobile Workers. it can plain
ly be seen, are anxious and willing to comply with
the Presidents Executive Order that there be no
discrimination in national defense work.
Most of the American Federation Of Labor
Unions and several of the Go unions along with
rapidly diminishing number of ndustrialists still
choose to defy the president.
1t is this small group. who by their actions say
they do not believe in the democratic principles
for the preservation of which America is now
srming that must be brought into line, even if it
calls for legislation to do so.
The United Automobile Workers have shown
that it can be done without this legislation. Other
unions. if their members would but practice the
same democracy they talk, could do the same.
