START SURVEY OF NEGRO
POPULATION ON sept. Is

LITTLE ROCK, Ark, Sept. Is
(ANPl-A survey of the Negro
population here and four other
southern cities is slated to get
underway Monday when DR.. War
rem M. Banner, Urban league direc-
tor of research and community, ar
rives here.
The survey will have no political
significance, Nash declared, and
will avoid such controversial ques-
tions as poll tax and Negro politi-
cal participation. Local Negro citi-
zens, however, look suspciously at
the survey and view it as an at
tempt to gather information on
Negro voting strength.

gro workers in Africa and the
West Indies have wanted this sort
of support from English, French
and American workers for years.
1t is hard to believe that the
lowly Pullman porters really re-
gard the Russian people, or the
representatives of Russian work
ers as a menace to any privileges
the porters now enjoy or can rea-
sonably expect to enjoy in the fore
seeable future. The action Of the
porters. makes sense only if re-
garded as an attempt by Randolph
Webster and company to "go
along" with the top AFL leader
ship in the latter's irreconcilable
opposition to a truly democratic
federation, the WFTU.

RACE COVENANTS BRANDED ILLEGAL


.torney General Robert w. Kenny
filed brief in the California
supreme court urging that body to
forbid state court enforcement Of
race restrictive covenants on the
ground that such enforcement is
violative of the fourteenth amend
ment of the u. S. constitution.
Clarence A. Linn, assistant at
torney general, and D. O. Meow
ney, law professor at the Univer-
sity of California and Kenny's spe-
cial advisor, also signed the brief
with Kenny.
The brief was filed in the famed
Sugar Hill cases which are set for
argument when the state supreme
court meets here on October 2.
In setting forth the reasons for
filing the brief, the attorney gen.
eral points out:
Although these actions are en-
titled as though they were between
private litigants this is not really
the fact. Whole sections of the
population are to be affected by
the outcome of this litigation. Some
persons of one race seek to fence
in all persons of another race and
by agreement among themselves
have attempted to fix bounds of the
habitations of that other race"
Involved in the cases in which
the brief was presented is the real
property lying between Adams and
Washington boulevards and be-
tween LaSalle street and Western
Avenue.
Among occupants Of homes in
that area and involved in the cases
are actresses Hattie Mcdaniel,
Louise Beavers and Ethel Waters
and other we'll known business and
and professional persons.

LABOR VIEWS
By George F. McCrav
By George F. McCray

By George F. McCray
The convention of A. P. Ran
dolph's Brotherhood of Sleeping
Car Porters which met in Chicago
last week has adopted particularly
stupid and short sighted resolution.
By unanimous action they, the
humble porters, endorsed the ac-
tion of the American Federation of
Labor in the latter's blind opposi-
tion to the newly organized World
| Federation of Trade unions.
George Meany, William Green,
John P. Frey, and other AFL top
flights turned thumbs down on the
WFTU because it admits to men,
bership in the CIO, Russian, Mexi-
can and other so-called left wing
unions.
Thus to avoid association with
representatives of Russian unions
a group of Negro porters, servants
to the fortunate, and certainly not
the most glorified group of work
ers in the world, would destroy the
only truly democratic world fed
Grafton which has ever been estab-
lished. Not only is the World Fed
Grafton recognized by the United
Nations, but it's affiliations cover
tens of thousands of Negro union
members in Africa, the West In
dies, as we'll as the dominant unions
in England, France, Mexico, India,
Italy, Sweden, Canada, Australia
and elsewhere.
The only important holdout is
the American Federation of Labor
rich, powerful, and conserva-
tive. 1t still clings to the defunct
international Federation of Trade
unions organized after the first
worlds war. Negroes never partici-
pated in the old IFTU and the
IFTU was never much concerned
about the problems of Negroes
whether in the United States or
elsewhere.
The late Sidney Hillman, while
presiding at one Of the sessions of
the World Federation in Paris,
might not have been familiar with
African geography, but Negro
delegates from Africa were there
to set him straight-and they did.
Moreover, for the first time in
history, colonial labor, particularly
Negro colonial labor, whose ex-
ploitation is favorite oratorical
subject of Brother Randolph, has
channels through which it can de-
mand and receive the support of
powerful unions for higher wages
and better working conditions. Ne

SCREEN ACTORS GUILD VOTES
TO FIGHT jim CROW IN MOVIES
HOLLYWOOD, Sept. 25 = The
powerful Screen Actors Guild, at
it's 18th annual membership in the
Academy Award Theatre, gave it's
answer to the vicious silent boy
colt" against Negro actors and ac-
tresses now being adopted by most
of the major film studios-and
many of the Independents.
The guild went on record by
unanimously adopting a resolution
proposed by Betsy Blair, white ac-
tress, and others urging the SAG
ITO use all it's power to oppose
discrimination against Negroes in
the motion picture industry"
The resolution further called for
the setting up of a special commit
tee at once 'to implement this pol
icy and to meet with representa-
tives of the Screen Writer'S Guild
and the Screen Directors Guild
and the Motion Picture Producers
| Association in order to establish
in the industry a policy of present
ing Negro characters on the screen
in the true relation they bear to
American life"
Newly elected President Robert
Montgomery called on Miss Blair to
read the resolution to the $50 "a"
guild members, after explaining
that the board of directors sane
toned its adoption.
Following the reading of the
resolution, Jesse Graves, we'll
known character actor, thanked
the body on behalf of his fellow Ne
gro actors and moved for accept
ance of the measure. It was passed
unanimously.
The unprecedented action by the
powerful SAG comes as a direct

scenes effort on the part of several

| Notwithstanding the fact that
the resolution is one of the most
Encouraging actions in the present
fight for Negro integration into
the Hollywood scene, this writer
would like to make one observation.
Perhaps we're being over-criti-
cal but we would prefer clarifica-
ton of the phrase: !" :. to estab-
lish in the industry policy of pre-
senting Negro characters on the
screen in the TRUE relation they
bear to American life"
