Injunction Upholds
Negro Roll Fireman
Against Brotherhood

Washington, Dec. Justice
Alexander Holtzoff of the United
States District Court today signed
a preliminary injunction restrain
ing the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Firemen and Enginemen, the At
lantic Coast Line, the Southern
Railway Company and ten subsidi-
airy railroads Of the latter company
from discriminating against Negro
firemen.
Justice Holtzoff, on Nov. 25, de-
cided to grant a preliminary in
junction only against the Brother
hood and not against the carriers.
The courts reason for withhold
ing the restraining order from the
carriers was that they might be
said to have been constrained" to
enter into (those) agreements with
labor unions to prevent interfer-
ence with the operation of the
linesy
However, last Monday, counsel
for the roads suggested to the
court that if any injunction were
to issue against the Brotherhood it
should also issue against the rail-
roads.
Sidney S. Alderman, general
counsel for the Southern Railway
System, also moved to bring in as
defendants ten Of the subsidiary
railroads and terminal companies
of the Southern system.
