EHollzof Throws Out
Loyalty Case Suit
By Dorothy Bailey
Soys District Court Hos
No Right to Set Aside
Findings by Boord

The Dorothy Bailey loyalty case
today was thrown out of District
Court by Judge Alexander Holtz-
off, who ruled that the court had
mo right" to set aside Federal
Loyalty Board findings resulting
in her discharge last October.
Judge Holtzon stated this opin-
ion in denying Miss Bailey's mo-
ton for a declaratory Judgment in
her favor. The judge at the same
time granted the Governments s
move to dismiss her suit. Miss
Bailey had sued the Federal 10y
atty Review Board and three other
Government agencies last April
for reinstatement in her $8.GG0-a-
year job as a supervisor of the
United States Employment Serv-
ice. She was discharged because OF
alleged one-time membership in
the Communist Party.
Attorney Milton v. Freeman,
representing Miss Bailey. promptly
announced he would appeal Judge
Holtzoff's ruling to the United
States Court of Appeals.
t., Recalls Similar Suit.
Judge Holtzoff recalled that q
month ago in a similar suit in
which several postal employees
appealed their "disloyalty" fir-
ings, he held that District Court
lacked jurisdiction.
Il have already found thai
the Presidents loyalty order i.
valid and constitutional" the
Judge declared. That Is the only
question before me in this cast
today
Reviewing the Loyalty Boare
procedures which led to Mis-
Bailey's discharge. he described
as unusual certain aspects o.
the boards methods.
Specifically he questioned thu
fact that the evidence" uset
against Miss Bailey was not re-
vealed to her at the time, ant
that it was evidence" supplied b,
anonymous informants.
while this procedure was ur.
usual, still the loyalty hearing wa
not a trial. but an administrativ.
procedure" Judge Holtzof en-
phasized.

SteeIworkers Reveal
Demand for 30-Cent
Package Increase
Fourth-Ro Wage Boost
Of IN cents and Funds
For Pensions Sought
sy the Associoted Press

NEW YORK, July 28.-Presi-
dent Philip Murray of the CIO
Steelworkers announced today his
union wants package increase
Of 80 cents per hour in it's cur
rent dispute with the steel COM
panies. including a fourth-round
wage increase of 12l2 cents.
Mr.. Murray revealed the de-
mands for the first time at the
opening session of the fact-find-
ing board appointed by President
Truman to avert a strike in the
dispute.
Mr.. Murray was the first speak
er for the union.
The demands also include 1923
cents per hour for pensions and
627 cents per hour for social
insurance.
Will Consider Pensions.
Earlier the presidential fact
finders dispute ruled that they
would consider evidence on PEN
sions for steel workers along with
the two other issues At stake.
This was what the steel workers
had asked at preliminary meet
ing on Tuesday of the three-man
board.
The companies. led by United
States Steel. had proposed that the
board hear evidence and then de-
eide first whether the pension is
sue was a proper matter for con-
sideration.
1t is the companies contention
that the reopening clause in
their contracts with the union,
under which negotiations are be-
ing conducted this year. does not
permit pensions to be brought up.
The companies agree that the
other two issues involved. a wage
increase and social insurance, are
covered in the reopening clause.
To Hear Evidence is Days.
The fact finding board. set up by
President Truman to head of a
threatened strike July Is, will hear
evidence for Is days.
The union, which is asking the
wage, social insurance and pen
sion concessions for its some 900.-
900 members, has eight days to
! tell it's side.
Equal time has been allotted
the 64 companies-led by Betlnle-
hem, United States Steel and Re
public.
The board must make its rec
concentrations to President Tru-
man at least IS days before the
unions new strike deadline OF Sep
tember 16. That means the parties
will have q minimum Of Is days to
get together on an agreement after
the recommendation are in.

Cement Drivers
Strike, 1ieup Of
Building Looms
10c Pay Rise Rejected
At Angry Meeting of
Union Membership

Vi uCh ullVcIS UtRdH IOQdy, ana
threatened to cripple operations
on Washington's multimillion-
dollar construction program.
The cement truck drivers voted
to strike this morning after
angrily rejecting a compromise
wage agreement which had been
negotiated last night at a labor
management conference at the
Office of the Federal Mediation
and Cancellation Service.
None of the big 300 cement
mixing trucks whose cargoes are
vitally necessary on such projects
as the Dupont Circle underpass
and the new General Accounting
Office Building rolled after the
strike vote was taken.
Effect to Be Felt in 2 to 3 Days.
Other union workers remained
on the job after the cement truck
drivers struck. Contractors point
ed out that it would take two or
three days before full effects of
the truck drivers strike was felt.
Carpenters. who build forms into
which cement is poured. and rod
men who reinforce the cement will
be among the first to be laid off if
the truck drivers strike is pro-
longed. it was pointed out.
Union officials and management
representatives shook hands last
night and agreed upon terms of
a new contract which would have
granted the drivers an increase of
10 cents an hour. The agreement
was subject to ratification by a
union membership meeting this
morning.
One truck driver who left the
closed meeting at Teamster's
Hall in the 1900 block of Thir-
teenth street NV. told reporters:
We've voted to turn down the
offer and no cement trucks will be
moving today. They want us to
work for the same wages as COM
mon laborers and we're not going
to do it."
Bell Not Saying Anything"
Charles Bell, president of Local
500 of the Truck Drivers Union.
when asked about the reported
strike, slammed the phone down
angrily after exclaiming:
The newspapers are responsible
for what happened. I'm not say
ing anything"
The construction industry has
just begun to hit its full stride
after a six-week shutdown caused
by strike of union carpenters
The carpenters ended their strike
by accepting 10 cent an hour
increase and employers have
sought to use that figure as a
wage pattern" in other union
negotiations.
Angry members of the ready
mix cement truck drivers union
pointed out this morning. how
ever, that the dump truck drivers
were granted a 16-cent-an-hour
increase retroactive to March 81
Tuesday night after they threat
ened to strike.
Seek s1.50 an Hour.
The cement truck drivers have
been working for $1.35 an hour
They had asked that their wages
be raised to $3.50 an hour.
The drivers claim that common
laborers who were recently
granted a 10-cent-an-hour In
crease now earn $1.45' cents an
hour. The drivers contend that
their jobs require more skill than
the jobs of laborers and that they
should be paid more.
Management representatives
pointed out that. the drivers are
guaranteed a minimum wage OF
$38 a week which was paid tc
them throughout the six-week
carpenters strike when the
cement trucks did not operate
Laborers are paid only when they
actually work.

most briefly, the people inter-

The Ohio daily-express. (Dayton, Ohio) 1946-1950, 1949-08-02
BY A. L. Foster

When my son, ALBION l.. D., and l
learned from DR.. Wilbur that trou-
BILE was brewing in the vicinity OF
93rd and st. Lawrence last Tues
day night, we decided to go to the
scene for the purpose of: (1) OBJ
serving how a mob conduts itself;
(2) mingling with the mobsters
and interviewing as many as pos
sible with the thought of getting
their personal opinions and re-
actions; (3) seeing what would
happen to two ~unescorted and un-
armed Negroes; (4) noting police
organization and activity; (5)
checking to see to what extent
the work of the commission on
Human Relations was being felt.
We did not propose to cause any
disorder ourselves but we were de-
termined to face any situation with
courage.
After our experiences, l am will
ing to make the broad statement
that "No Negro-unarmed and an
escorted by police-is safe in any
community in the United States"
That statement is based on the
fact that the mobs were composed
of citizens from every part Of
America as revealed by their
speech. There was the drawing
"Nigra" of the southerner; the
crisp infection of the Yankee;
the slow, broad phrases of the
middle westerner. It'll is further
based on the fact that those COM
posing the mobs were not "hood-
lums" and irresponsible young
sters. They were not restrained
by their elders or, incidentally, by
the police and there is every evil
dence that while many did not
and probably would not-partici-
pate in the mob activities, they
were with them in spirit and gave
them every encouragement. 1t is
my belief that the feelings of hat
red are so strong in the hearts of
a majority of white Americans
that a mob can easily and readily
be formed in any community and
a Negro attacked.
Using my AMP press card, l was
courteously admitted by the po-
lice into the restricted zone in
which the home Of the Roscoe
Johnsons, 1853 S. ST. Lawrence,
was located. My son was not per-
mitted into that area but did
nv.,,;co tho onfipo copopo11nitv and
later when he became worried be-
cause of my delayed return, he
went into the restricted zone. I
spent over two hours within the
zone. I was called the most vile
names imaginable. I was also ac-
cNsed of being a student or pro-
fessor at the University Of Chi
