strongly that the Department OF

animation into the activities OF
James McMenamin. Don Lasher and
Frank p. Carney, who are leaders
OF the so-called committee repre-
senting the strikers. Statements at

racial hatred and stirring up en-
ployees 10 psralyze Philadelphia
with the surprise stoppage. State
ments attributed TO McMenamin in
the New York Herald Tribune of
August 3 come within the category
OF Indictment TO riot. Carey and
McMenamin have preached open de-
hance OF federal government as well
as vilest and lowest form of racial
hatred. My personal observation
among Negro population OF Phila-
delphia for 80 hours informs me
that the statements Of these strike
leaders have done more 10 embitter
Negro population and lay basis for
serious clashes than any other aspect
