GOVERNMENT WILL
TAKE CHALLENGE
Justice Department Ready
To Test Petrillo Defy
OF Lea Law

WASHINGTON, May 2s-W.D-
Justice department officials today
accepted. the challenge of Presi.
dent James Caesar Petrillo of the
American Federation of Musicians
(AFL) to test the constitutionallty
of the anti-Petrillo law.
Petrillo ordered a strike yester-
day at WAAF, a Chicago radio
station, when it refused his re.
quest to double the number OF
its musicians. The recently-approv'
ed anti-Petrillo law makes it a
felony to require, Or attempt to
require, a broadcasting station
to hire more persons than it needs.
In calling the strike, Petrillo
expressed the sincere belief
that the federal law directed at
him is unconstitutional.
Some Justice department attor-
neys believed the anti-P etrillo law
would be held constitutional by
the Supreme cvourt. Some conserva
upon for a ruling. Some conServa-
tive lawyers in the department,
however, doubted the law would
be upheld by the high court.
Rep. Alfred l.. Bulwinkle, D.,
N. c., a member of the House
Interstate Commerce committee
which drafted the law, said the
WAAF-Petrillo case Undoubtedly
would go to the Supreme court
and I believe the law will be up
held"

aspect Of the local strike which
indicates to many observers that
forces are at work under the
surface.
Under present conditions, the
men may work as much as 10
hours successfully, and condi-
tons in the pressroom are said
to be conducive to i'll health. Be-
fore September, 1t was possible
for a man to work "a hours in
succession, If the relief man ON
the incoming shift did not show
up. The vote for the strike was
44-30. Picketing continues de-
spite the fact that the fight be-
gan between non-union workers
and picketing members.
Reports are that nonunion men
went in the plant armed and that
trucks carrying them did not have
their licenses where they could
be seen. II was said that the
union officials notified the au-
thorities that pickets would b
unarmed Immediately after the
strike had occurred. In the re-
cent outbreak, 1t was only charg-
ed that the union men had sticks.
What gives serious aspect to the
faght is the tenor of Act 1893,
which makes violence used by
pickets felony. A fight which
would be punishable by a small
fine if 1t occurred in dance hall
is punishable by Imprisonment in

Williams said that as they left
the plant, group of strikers ask
ed them to stop and that when
they refused, Campbell attacked
him with a stick. He said he
suffered four blows before he
drew his pocket knife. Camp
bell, he said, still struck him over
the head despite the cuts he was
receiving from Williams knife.
Williams finally fled the scene
and surrendered to the police.
Campbell died enroute to the
hospital.

youngster, who had been with
Walter Campbell all day and was
with him during the melee, cor

GERS, he reported.
According to witnesses who
viewed the body of Campbell, the
way the man was cut up, it didn't
seem possible that one man could
have done it. They said one cut
looked as if it had been made by
an ak.
Eight men have been arrested
on charges connected with the
violence and all are out on bond
by professional bondmen. On the
surface, the outbreak is the result
of a clash between unior strikers
and strike breakers of the same
race. The head of the union is
Louis Jones. He is under bond
for $500, and Otha Williams, who
is said to have done the killing,
is under bond for $1,000.
The purpose Of the strike is to
obtain a ten per cent increase in

hour week, and time and half
for overtime. If these purposes
are won, they will be won every

National Urban League Head Writes
Racial Crisis, Tomorrow's Solutions

eve shall make the riots of
1913 seem as small an unimport-
ant in comparison with the times
ahead as the bloody battles in
Okinawa and the Normandy
beachhead would appear beside
the atomic bomb attack of
World War III--if we should be
insane enough to allow it to hap
pen" says Lester B. Granger,
executive secretary of the Nation
al Urban League, writing on IRA
cial Crisis and Tomorrow's Solu-
tion," in the January-February
1916 issue of Predictions.
In his prediction of import
ant things to come" Granger
warns that although racial dis
harmony is on a higher social
level than ever before in our ma
tional history, it is foolish blind
ness" not to recognize that race
relations disharmony today is
more acute than at any time since
the Civil War.
WAR TENSIONS MENACE
Among the visible" factors
contributing to Instantaneous
race relations Granger listed the
war immigrations of approxi-
mately 100000 Negroes into hos
tile, unready communities, and
the resulting housing, employ
ment and recreational difficult
ties. Among hidden" factors he
included war nerves, the Negroes
own participation in the war
with the announced objective
to secure human liberties" and
the resentment generated among
the armed forces and civilians at
the discrimination practiced
against him, "The last straw" the
Legue executive stated, twas the
vilification of Negro servicemen
on the floor of the Senate and
the House at Washington" by the
Eastlands and the Rankins.
Now, in the postwar, Granger
emphasized, race relations con-
versation contains an alarming
amount of stupid thinking, the
most brutal being the attitude of
putting the Negro back in his
place now that the war is over"
This last, he indicates, is father
ed perhaps by the hope that Ne
groes will be forced to return to
their original home towns with
out their lucrative war jobs. But
Negroes, like all other American
groups, Granger pointed out, are
driven necessarily by a desire to
improve their status, and the adj
vantages they receive in the
North, West and South makes
them want to stay there "come
hell or high water"
ADJUSTMENT, ABSORPTION
AND 1NTEGRATION"
'The obvious course for COM
munity leadership to follow in
order to head off the racial ex-
plosions that are bound to come"
Granger suggested, "is the one
that leads progressively to adj
justment, absorption, and integra-
ton of Negroes into their COM
munities, whether old or new"
With this process, Negroes will
gradually overcome cultural
lags, lose social disabilities. and
get rid Of those group character
istics which frequently make
them distinguishable from anc
Objectionable to older and more
solidly established population

WHITE AND NEGRO
TEAMWORK NEEDED

In observing that one of the
answers to smoother race rela-
tons is better teamwork be-
tween white and Negro leaders,
Granger said:
TOO much Negro leadership in
the past has fallen under the
head of militant protest and not
enough under that of cooperative
planning. When in addition to
fighting against employment and
housing discrimination, Negro
leadership sets to work to i'm
prove job efficiency and neigh
borhood conditions within the
existing Negro community, that
leadership's arguments against
segregation and discrimination
are made much more effective.
"On the other hand" Granger
stated, too much interest on the
part of whites in the Negroes
welfare is on level of condes-
cension unpleasantly remines-
cent to the Negro of the old-time
missionary who offered salvation
without having first achieved it
himself. These modern mission
aries want to work for the Negro
but not with him."
/'DOLEFUL ALTERNATIVE"
"The doleful alternative to such
a program is now before u.s."
Granger warned, ''in the torment
and confusion that characterize
race relation today. The racial
question is a convenient tool for
fanatic trouble-makers and I'M
scrupulous racketeers. The
time is ripe and the way is open
to a new series of race riots; to
a succession of more quietly and
efficiently conducted Scottsboro
cases; to night-riding in rural
sections and gang thuggery in
city streets; to a decade of bloody
and disgraceful racial eontro-
versy that will stain the pages of
American history for many gen.
erations."
