DISCRIMINATION
~ UNIONS
I'VE urR an trade unions to

The Association warns those La
Dor unions which in the postwar
period are reyerting 10 discrimi-
matory practices that continuance
OF such practices arouse within
mlnorities anli-labor sentiment.
We urge such local unions to
expel from their ranks those
persons who are opposed TO The
acceptance OF qualified Negro
workers into full membership. We
call on our membership as well
as other minority groups 10 sup
port and vote IN National Labor
Relations Board elections for
those unions which do. not prac-
tice discrimination.
We call attention 70 The out
standing decision won by this or
ganization in the State Supreme
Court OF California involving the

practice OF racial discrimination
by the union in that State. We
