WDL ASKS CHANCE TO
TESTIFY AGAINST THE
CASE BILL

New York City (WDL)-An op-
portunity to testify against the
super union busting Case Bill was
asked by the Workers Defense
League in a letter to Senator j.
E. Murray, chairman of the Sen
ate Education and Labor Commit
tee. The letter was sent by Row
land Watts, associate national Sc
cretary of the WDL, the day after
the Dill was passed by the House.
Watts expressed confidence that
the committee would not repeat
the undemocratic procedure of the
House Rules Committee, which
pushed the measure to the house
floor without hearings. Going in
to an analysis Of the bill, Watts
went on:
ut provides that any strike is
Illegal for a period UP to 35 days
if the meditation board declares
the controversy substantially af-
fects the public interest, This
means every strike Of any proper
tions because the Boards opinion
is not subject to judicial review.
All Persons are forbidden from
ssisting such a strike thus con-
| deming all community activities in
; sympathy, regardless of the merits
Of the dispute.
Broad labor injunction powers
are granted the court, ousting
from the law the hard won bene-
its Of the Norris-LaCuardia Act.
Under the pretext that force and
violence has occurred, all picketipg
may be permanently forbidden.
Any employee who engages IN
such a strike DR. picketing loses
his rights under the National La
Dor Relations Act and may be de-
MED employment,
Supervisory employees, includ-
ing many clerical workers, unless
they are engaged in manual pro
ductive labor are denied the right
to organize or belong to unions.
Unions and union members face
the threat Of civil suits for con-
tract breach in either State or
Federal courts. Boycotts, held le-
gal by the states, and other leg1-
innate union activities in support
of disputes r declared illegal.
Rep. Emanuel Celler characterized
the bill accurately when he
described it as a turning back of
he clock to the days of the yellow
log Contracts"

WILL FIGHT FILM
STEREOTYPES SAYS
I'll NA4CP

New York-The opposition of
Hollywood Negro actors and act
resses will not deter the NAACP
from it's fight against the spread
-ng Of harmful stereotypes Of the
Negro throughout the world thru
the motion picture, it was annou-
ced here last week by Walter
White, NAAC PSecretary.
White, who just returned to NY
from the Pacific Coast where he
made preliminary arrangements
for the setting up of a Hollywood
Bureau Of the NAACP, issued the
following statement.
There has been so much mis-
understanding and misinformation
some of it deliberate, regarding
the purposes of establishing of an
information bureau in Hollywood
by the NAACP that a statement
of the bureaus functions appears
to be necessary for public infor-
nation.
THE purpose and need of such
a bureau should be readily appar-
ent to any open minded person.
Ever since motion pictures were
first begun to be made, the negro
has been pictured, with but few
exceptions, as either a slavishIy
subservant meniiu or as a comic
figure. The result has been not
only the perpetuation but the vast
spreading of these harmful stereo-
types throughout the world. They
have been so vicious that other
wise enlightened people Of other
countries and even in the United
States are astounded and some
times skeptical when told that
there r intelligent Negro Ameri-
cans.
"At no time has the NAACP
taken the position that Negroes
should never appear as servants or
comedians. When such picturiza-
ton is a logical part of a story,
particularly n irelation to the per-
iod in which the story is laid, there
can be no objection to intelligent

anu ullDldSeu casting OF Negroes
in such roles. The NAACP's con-
IGNITION, however, is that Negroe;
should not be limited to these two
stereotypes but instead should be-
pictured as nornlal human being;
playing an integral and important
role in the life of America and Of
the world.
1T is exceedingly unfortunate
for them and for the Negro actors
and actresses object to any efforts
Q improve the Negroes picturiza-
ton in moving pictures. Their fea,
jeems to be based upon a belief
that they will not be given work
in the films. Such a fear is utterly
without foundation. Some of the
chief protestants against any such
change in the Negroes status in
the films are skilled and expert
enced actors and actresses. Sue
cess Of the efforts Of the NAACP
md the movie going public can
Ind should result in better, more
-requent and better paid roles for
hese actors and actresses and
others who enter not only the act
ing but the technical phases of
picture making.
But the issue is bigger than
jobs for a few individuals. Many
of the evils from which the Negro
as a race now suffers are born of
the low opinion of Negroes to
which the usual treatment of him
by the movies has materially con-
trlbuted. The question therefore
reduces itself to one as simple as
this: What is more important
jobs for a handful Of Negroes
playing SO called Uncle Tom roles
or the welfare Of Negroes as a
whole? If a choice has to be made
the NAACP will fight for the well
fare of all Negroes instead of a
few.
The Los Angeles Branch Of the
NAACP invited all the Negro act
DIS and actresses as aanner guests
20 that they could EXPRESS them
selves freely to the Associations
Secretary on January 18th. This
they did. It was exceedingly re-
vealing to note the number OF them
who We're solely interested in jobs
for themselves irrespective of what
effect their actions would have on
the future of Negroes as a whole.
Among the suggestions made by
some of the actors and actresses
was one that tne Bureau should De
controlled by the actors and act
resses now presently in the films.
An actresses stated that she was
determined to stage a comeback
and if she had to play maid or any
other kind of role to do so she was
going to play such roles. Another
was particularly vehement be-
cause his request that he be invi-
ted to attend a luncheon for Wen.
dell Wilkie and Walter White in
1892 could not bring unlimited
guests Others alleged that any
efforts to improve the status Of
the Negro in the films is interior
ence.
The NAACP has not hesitated
to interfere with lynching, disfr-
anchisement, unequal educational
opportunities ana Job discrimina-
ton. All types of these evils are
aided in part by Hollywood ste
reotypes. The struggle, therefore
to improve the treatment of Ne
groes in the medium which reaches
more human eyes an emotion.
than any yet devised by man is
part and parcel of that struggle
for improvement of the Negroes
lot. And the NAACP will not he
detersed by the attacks of those
who have a veseed interest in the
status quo. 1t welcomes, however,
advice and guidance from all Of
those whether in or outside Of the
making of motion pictures.
