Louis unit of the March on Wash
ington movement is doing every
thing possible to get Negro opera
tors on buses and street cars" T..
D. McNeal, director of the local
unit, told 2,10C persons gathered
last week in the Washington Taber-
nacle church.
David M. Grant, member of the
unit executive committee, told the
audience how several complaints
against the company had been filed
with the FEPC and that unless the
committee acts upon them by
spring, the Negroe rights would be
set forth by series of oemonstra-
tionS.
Negroes have qualified themselves
by operating empty cars and buses
at night, bringing them into the
barn, Grant told the gathering;
they have proved themselves cap
able.
In a case on file with the FEPC,
Grant said the organization is
comprised of a case of one Negro
operator who was fired from the
citys transportation system when
it was learned that he was colored.
A. Philip Randolph, originator OF
the March on Washington move
ment, explained that the technique
employed would follow the pat
