Brazeal Writes History Of
Pullman Porters Union

ATLANTA, Ga. - (S N S -
1.-THE brotherhood of Sleeping
Car Porters," a record of one of
the most interesting labor organiza
lions in the United States has just
come off press. 1t was written by
DR.. Brailsford r. Brazeal, professor
of economics at Morehouse College
and has been published by Harper
and Brothers of New York and
London. The graphic drawing on
the cover of the book, symbolical
of the serious and aggressive Pull
man porter, is by the international
ly famous painter, Hale Wood
ruff.
In 258 pages, the book relates
wildly the struggle of the Amer
lean Negro to secure recognition in
the world of organized labor. 1t
tells the story of the beginnings
growth and present activities of
the Brotherhood which mark a
noteworthy advance in the Negroes
economic status.
Professor Lee Wolman of the de
partment of economics at Colum-
bia University, who wrote the FORE
word, states that unlike many
standard labor histories, Dr.. Bra
zears findings depend, not on in
adequate printed records but on
wide personal observation, carried
on for many years, of the work of
the porters and of the life of their
union. Students of American labor
history owe large debt to DR..
Brazeal for this account of the de-
velopment of a pioneer union.
From this book there Is much to
be learned, not only about trade
unionism in general, but the way
a minority group sets about solv-
ing its own problems in a demo-
cratic setting"
SYMPATHETIC AUTHORITY
DIR. Brazeal has written sysinthe-
Jackson advocate. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1939-current, 1946-04-06

tically, with authority and under
standing of the problems of Pull
man porters, the work they do and
the special types of issues and
grievances their work creates.
Many of his conclusions are based
not only upon first hand know
ledge obtained through numerous
interviews with porters and off,
Gals of the Brotherhood, but
through experiences the author,
himself, had as a college student
while employed in the summer as
a Pullman porter.
Phases discussed and analysed
by DR.. BraZeal are Cd Factors In
Pullman's Development and Labor
Policies (2) Initial Efforts of Port
srs to Organize; go Accommodating
Grievances Impel Pullman Port
ers to Organize; (4) TechniqueS OF
Opposition and Survival; (5) Le-
gal Action to Obtain Recognition
and Higher Wages; 90 Attacks on
Pullman's Employee Representa-
ton Plan; Cd Brotherhood's Rela-
tions with American Federation of
Labor; 90 Brotherhood Delegates
at American Federation of Labor
Conventions; 90 Government and
Brotherhood; Q0) Contractual Re-
lationS Between Pullman and It's
Porters; CID Wage Payments to
Pullman Porters; and Q2) Spear
head Activities of the Brotherhood
of Sleeping Car Porters.
The author has had a career of
unusual distinction in numerous
professional associations on behalf
of causes devoted to the advance
ment of the Negro. He is graz
duate of Morehouse College and
Columbia University, and has
written numerous professional jour
mails in the field of economics and
higher education for Negroes.
DR.. Brazea1's treatment of the
origin and development of the
Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Port
ers indicates clearly that Pullman
porters have achieved significant
milestone in the field of American
Labor Economics.

Find District USES Biased
In Federal Job ReferraIs
Civil Service
Commission
Views Charge

WASHIN GTON, D. c.
(NNPA)-The United States
Civil service Commission last Mon
day upheld the charge of the Unit
ed Federal Workers of America
that the United States Employ
ment Service here discriminates
because of race in referring work.
ers to Federal jobs.
Arthur S. Fleming, Civil Serv-
ice Commissioner, notified the
union Monday that commission
investigation had substantiated the
charges.
Mr.. Fleming said he has written
the agency requesting that the
discrimination be discontinued and
that another investigation would
be conducted shortly to determine
whether the request was being
complied with.
SEPARATE UNITS
The union recently brought to
the attention Of the Commission
that Federal agencies here, forced
to do their own hiring under the
Presidents recent executive order,
we're using the local USES office
| to recruit workers and that the
USES maintains separate inter-
view units and separate files for
colored and white job applicants.
The union charged that this
set-up was resulting in habitnal
| discrimination by the agency and
therefore that use of it for Fed
eral hiring was contrary to the
Presidents order specifically ban
ming discrimination in. Federal hir-
| ing.
The demand that agencies be
banned from recruiting through
USES as long as the segregated
set-up remains was renewed by
the union after receiving Mr..
| Fleming's report.
LOGICAL OUTCOME
The union also pointed out that
the current situation is a logical
outcome of the provision in the
executive order allowing each
agency to do its own hiring. A
request was made by the union
that the recruitment of workers
be returned to Civil Service Com
mission control as necessary to
preservation of the merit system
and established Civil Service pol
icies while competitive registers
for permanent Federal appoint
| mentS are being set up.
The slow process of establishing
such registers is now being car
ried out by the Commission, but
none exist as yet and years will
be required to establish them for
| all jobs. Meanwhile, each agency
must recruit it's own workers, and
Y the union contends this system in
wolves much duplication and waste,
as well as fostering discrimination,
| fayoritism, and political prefer
ment.

War Over, But venereal Disease
Fight Must Continue In Nation
Concerted Effort
Bv Governments
Bringing Results

WASHINGTON, D. C.-(SNS)
Although the war is over, the fight
against venereal diseases must
continue until the problem of then
control is brought down to a MINI
mum.
Concerted, well-aimed efforts by
city, county and state health de
partments, the armed forces, and
the United States Public Health
Service have brought encouraging
results. A recently reported sta
tistical analysis of blood tests on
Selective Service registrants show
ed, among other things, that in the
3 Southern States the average trend
3 in syphilis was clearly downward
for men of all ages.
Also, results of recent studies
j show that syphilis patients who
receive treatment live longer than
those who do not. 1t was also re-
vealed that although Is people pen
100000 people died of syphilis il
: 1899, only little over II people
out of 100000 died of this disease
in 1913.
So, the studies demonstrate that
competent treatment of syphilis
mot only helps prolong the life OF
pyphilis patients, but it also is
reducing on a national scale the
deaths due directly to this venereal
disease.
SHORT CURE
Private physicians and clinics
using penicillin can now cure gon-
brrhea in a few hours. Complete
treatment for syphilis takes only
nine days in the more than sc
rapid treatment centers maintain
Id throughout the country.
In addition to these rapid treat
nent centers, which were estab-
ished during the war, there are
ome 5000 clinics, wholly or part
" supported by public funds, to
which people who are unable to
bay may go for treatment of vene-
cal disease.
These RAPID treatment centefs
he clinics, and the private ply
icians are moving forward in the
ERECTION of eventual complete con-
srol of venereal diseases. There
re at present about 100000
asses of syphilis in our country
nd about 100000 new cases occur
ach year. In addition, probably
100000 new gonorrhea infections
ccur yearly.
Because penicillin is now avail.
BILE for use by private doctors
hey can give treatment for gonor-
Slea in their own offices in a short

Although he is backed by many
liberal groups, as well as the
powerful New York Association OF
Native islanders, and is known to
be the choice of resident islanders
if they could vote to- choose then
own governor, HASTE last week in
a hearing before senate sub
committee had to face opposition
of sen. Eastland of Mississippi The
Mississippi Democrat sniped at the
newly appointed interior depart
ment secretary, Kr,lg, who hailed
HASTE as an outspoken and dis
tinguished American an ideal can
didate from the Virgin Island
viewpoint"
SERVICE RECALLED
Secy. Krug recalled particularly
Hastie's noteworthy service as
civilian aide. to the secretary OF
war and urged his confirmation as
governor as a convincing display
to the world that the u. S. is not
merely paying lip service to alb
stract principles" He said also:
HE has what no other COVER
nor ever had at the start OF his
term: a knowledge of the people,
the area, and its sociai ana econo-
mic problems" This was gained
when HASTE served as judge of the
Virgin Islands. He is married to a
native islander whom he met dur
ing his term there.
Capitol Hill rumors are that, TN
less pressure is brought to bear,
Hastie's name may be withheld
from the senate. The senate insu-
lar affairs committee had no in
formation last week as to a time
when the nomination made by
President Truman more. than two
months ago may be considered.
Candidates for nine important
posts have been confirmed in the
interim.
SIDES WITH EASTLAND
Sen. Brewster, CRep. Maine) took
sides with Sen. Eastland during
the hearing and questioned HASTE
on his social and economic views.
Though an independent in policies
HASTE. has been associated with
the National Citizens PAC. the
Southern Conference for Human
welfare and NAACP all of which
are targets of reactionaries in con-
gress. Sen. Tydings. chairman OF
the senate committee conducting
the investigation, is, said to oppose
HASTE solely on the grounds that
he was backed by Lrrera1ist Har-
old Ickes.
Congressman, Dawson Of Illinois,
who openly opposed Hastie's nomi-
nation for the federal bench, has
not been notably active for his
confirmation to the Virgin islands
post. Authoritative sources declare
that the Republicans will not sup
port HASTE because they know the
effect on voting for his appoint
ment, but will not oppose him II
the issue is pressured into action.
