The crowd which included Me-
gro leaders from every section OF
the state, as well as number of
influential white people, heard Mrs.
Bethune speaking on the conven-
items theme, THE SOUTHEAST
ERN A DYNAMIC FORCE in Ma
NIONAL DEFENSE" deny. time
after time, that the American Ne
gro of the South were seeking
Social Equality" in their fight for
the chance to work, fight and die,
as all other American citizens:
characterizing as foolishness, the
raising of the question of Social
Equality" in times like these in
every matter which concerns CIV
ing the Negro equal opportunities
and equal rights as all other Anne
rican citizens In the program of
National Defense. Emphasizing
her denial of the question of $50
cial Equality as an issue with the
Negro, she said that she did not
want any white folks to invite her
to breakfast, or to place their cars
at her disposal for sightseeing
trips about the city; that she would
do all her eating with her own
people; that they would take her
sightseeing, and if need be she
would rather ride with them in an
OK wagon. Saying. rather than
Social Equality" All we want is a
chance of life that every human
being is entitled to.
Referring to an occasion when
she was called to the White House
| by President Roosevelt, who ex-
pressed concern about the issues
being raisd by the Negro News
papers anent, the Negro in the
Program of National Defense! she
said that she told the President
that the Negroes, through their
newspapers were only fighting for
a chance to fight: that there was
nowhere among Negroes a lack
of loyalty and patriotism and
willingness to sacrifice and die for
his country
In urging her hearers to keep
knocking on the doors for greater
opportunities, she said that many
doors formerly closed were being
opened and urged Negroes to pre-
pare themselves SO as to be ready
when the opportunity came.
Concluding hr address Mrs.
2ethune said: eff you could live
in Washington and see the multi
tude there, no one would have to
ask, what have /. got to fight for?
You have got to fight Tor this
peace; for this brotherhood. This
is Tie best place for us. No place
has given us the chance America
has given us. Regardless of her
defects we are Americans! We must
fight for freedom"
Mrs. Roosevelt appreciates more
than you know the contribution
you make. We look forward tG
the time when mer and women re-
CARELESS of race, creed or color will
stand together. I want you to look
beyond the shores of America, the
good neighbor program started
years ago. We now realize what il
means. When that peace table is
assembled you will see faces of all
creeds and colors. Gcd bless you;

Workers Send
Protest Letter
To Vim. Green
Contend Atlanta
Union Setup Is
Harmful To Cause

In a letter addressed to Presl-
dent William Green, OF the Amerl-
can Federation of Labor, the At
lanta Workers Council Saturday
had protested the Jim crow aux1-
liarv system under which the Ne
gro unionist must work in Atlanta.
The letter declares that under
the auxiliary plan as practiced ID
Atlanta. Negroes work under closed
shop contract, but without proper
representation in arranging terms
of those contracts. Neither are MS
complaints given consideration
under this system, it was stated,
Their desire for apprenticeship,
lob promotion or just redress OF
their grievances are often ignored
SO often that it seems to be the
usual thing, the letter states. They
likewise have little or no control
of funds which they invest In
unions, it was explained.
ASK FOR CHARTER
The council proposes that since
the Atlanta unions are pract1c1ng
separation and discrimination that
Negro unionists be given their own
charter with provision for joint
executive board composed of mem
bers of both the Negro and the
white local abolition of the auxilt-
airy system.
With the exception Of the lath-
erS' and plasterers' unions, there
is widespread discrimination OF
white locals against Negro locals
of the same craft, the letter points
out. One auxiliary, where discri-
mination is said to be particularly
pointed, is that the International
Lady Garment Workers union
where meetings often are postpon-
eu to give way to white gather
ings, and no educational or recrea-
tional facilities are available to Ne
gro members.
Moreover, a Negro member ap-
pointed to the executive board and
told that she would be notified of
meetings, has never been advised
of such meetings. A case of object
tional practice by the Negro divi-
sion of the United Garment Work
erS was cited and where work
under tremendous Speed-up and
threats was transferred to a ncn-
union white shop from union
Negro without protest from the
local
White business agents, paid to
secure work and bargain for Negro
craftsmen, do not work for Negro
interest and in few instances
even work against their interest,
the letter states. Several building
contractors, for example, have said
that they did not know that local
Negro union painters or carpenters
were available, it was pointed out.
The council informs Mr.. Green
that it has a specific case where the
representative of the Atlanta Fed
Grafton of Trades has deprived the
laundry workers local of most of
their union rights and has made it
almost directly responsible to him,
and that he has brought general
disruption to the union which is
paying all the expenses Of an office
they are supposed to share jointly
with the white local.
Perhaps more than any one
other case, this has caused At
lantans to question whether the

Mrs. Hayes and the daughter en-
tered the Higgins Shoe Store,
where they had been trading for
the past three summers, to buy
some shoes for the little girl. They
walked to the rear, in line with
Southern custom, but apparently
had not gone back far enough.

move further back before he would

that she was satisfied with her
seat, contending that it was cooler,
adding that If it were necessary
for her to move she would go else
where to make the purchase.
just as she was getting up to
leave, it was disclosed, Mrs. Hayes
