TUNSTALL-STEELE VICTORY
MAY COST RAILROADS
MILLION DOLLARS

WASHINGTON, D. C. (NNPA).
The possibility that the Supreme
Court victory won in the Tunstall-
Steele cases against the Louisville
& Nashville Railroad and the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen
and Enginemen may cost railroads
operating in the South and South
east over a million dollars was re-
vealed this week by Charles H.
Houston, nationally known attor-
ney, who successfully represented
the Negro fremen in the 5-year
court battle and through the Su-
preme Court.
Both Tom Tunstall and Bester
William Steele sued for damages
of $4,000 each for denial of their
seniority rights and their loss of
remuneration by being shifted to
more arduous and less remunera-
tive work under the railroad-union
agreements.
Hundreds of Negro firemen have
had similar experiences. The right
to bring their suits in federal
courts was established in the de-
cision of the Tunstall case.
Mr.. Houston also pointed out that
the decision is one of benefit not
only to Negroes, but to all minority
groups. 1t will be effective in OBJ
tanning impartial representation
wherever a labor union becomes the
bargaining representative of an en-
tire group of craft under color of
federal authority. This means, he
says, that the CLIO or the AFL may
use the decision whenever the other
wins bargaining agent election,
in order to see that it's members
are not Disseminated against by
the majority.
In its decision, the court declared:
UNLESS the labor union represent
ing craft owes some duty to
represent non-union members OF
the craft, at least to the extent of
not discriminating against them as
such in the contracts which it makes
as their representative, the minor
ity would be left with no means of
protecting their interests or, indeed,
their right to earn a livelihood by
pursuing the occupation in which
they are employed"

NAACP Sets
Up Returned
Veterans Bureau
CAPTAIN JESSE o. DEDMON
NAMED NAACP VETERANS
SECRETARY

New York.-Captain Jesse O.
Dedmon, Jr., who was placed in
inactive status last October on ac-
count of physical disability, has
been named to be Secretary of
Veterans Affairs in the NAACP.
The NAACP, according to Roy
Wilkins, acting secretary, created
the new department of work for
veterans because of the great num-
Der of inquiries from men in uni
form and the we'll known need for
improvement in the handling of
Negro veterans by regular govern
ment agencies. The NAACP, Will
kins said, intends to do everything
possible to aid in solving the spe-
cial problems of Negro veterans,
eliminating discrimination against
them, and seeing that they receive
their full benefits as veterans.
Captain Dedmon is Sc. He is a
native of Oklahoma and was gradu-
ated from Howard university in
1882, receiving his law degree there
in 1885. He was admitted to the
Oklahoma bar in February, 1887,
and practiced in Tulsa from 1897
to September Is, 1910, when he
was called to active duty with the
rank of first lieutenant.
Dedmon was promoted to the
rank of captain August 81, 1912.
He served with the 366th Infantry
at Fort Davens, Mass, had
charge of the training program at
Prairie View college for one year,
and was trial judge advocate at
Camp Claiborne, La, from June
until September, 1914.
Captain Dedmon is familiar with
the problems of Negro soldiers and
his legal training plus his ex-
perience as trial Judge advocate
are expected to be of the utmost
value in his new work with. the
NAACP.
The Veterans Affairs Secretary
will be stationed in the Washington
