tive firemen against the St.
Louis-San Francisco Railway
Company and the big four rail-
way brotherhOOds 1.-THE Brother
Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire
men & Enginemen, the Brother
hood of Locomotive Engineers, the
hoohood Of Railway Trainmen and
the order Of Railway Conductors.)
The central issue in the case IL
whether it is lawful for a railroad
to make an agreement with the
white unions that only white men
shall be hired as firemen and
brakemen.
In 1928 the big four Brother
hoods forced the railroad to agree
not to hire any more Negroes in
train, engine and yard service. The
contract provided that the
Negroes then actually employed
were to keep their jobs, but when
they dropped out of service for
any cause their places were to be
filled by white men.
The result has been that Negro
firemen and brakemen now less
than % out Of a total Of nearly
four thousand operating employ
ees.
When the case was called in
court last Monday the Brother
hoods dramatically announced
that on that very day they had
cancelled the agreement, and that
there were no longer any legal
barriers the the hiring of Negroes
in any capacity on the Frisco
railroad. But for very good rea-
sons we did not let that end the
case.
Wiping out the agreement win
not mean that any Negroes will
get jobs as brakemen Of firemen
on the Frisco in the near future.
The Frisco has so many white
brakemen and firemen already
employed but now furloughed be-
cause Of decline of business who
will have to be called back first
before any new men are hired,
that judging the future by the
past it may be five years or more
before any new brakemen or fire
men, white or black, will be hired.
Railroad employment expanded
rapidly during World War II; but
Negroes got no benefit of that on
the Frisco because the 1928 Agree
ment restricting hiring to white
men was in effect. After hostiI-
ties ceased, railroad employment
fell off. The peak year was 1915.
Since 1915 railroad employment
has continued to decline for two
reasons. First. freight tonnage and
passenger miles have dropped. In
addition the introduction of the
diesel locomotive has permitted
the railroads to make two freight
trains with diesels haul as much

as three freight trains with the old
steam locomotives. This means the
loss of one freight crew out Of
three. Bus and airplanes, and
travel in private automobiles have
reduced the number of employees
in passenger service. In 1945 the
Frisco had 1852 train employees;
in 1913 the number had dropped
to 1907.
So the action of the Brother
hoods in cancelling the 1928
Agreement viii not put a single
Negro to work; and If we had been
content to drop the case with the
cancellation, the BrOtherhoods
could have forgotten the Frisco
situation and started out after
the Negro workers on other rail-
roads II business declines any
further.
We are therefore going on with
the case because the cancellation
Of the 1928 Agreement in 1919
after suit was filed did not wipe
out the damage done in the
twenty-one years the Agreement
was in existence and set up as a
color bar to the employment of
more Negro train and engine men
on the Frisco.
What we want is to get a de-
cree from the Court that such a
contract barring an entire class
Of citizens from employment on a
railroad because Of race, creed or
color, violates the Constitution of
the United States, the Federal
Civil Rights Act, the Railway
Labor Act and the public policy of
the United States. Then II the
Brotherhoods get out Of line on
other railroads we will have a rule
of law established by judicial de-
cree to set up against them.
The case is being fought every
inch by the BrotherhoOds, and
they have both the manpower and
the resources to do so. The En-
gineers have 10000 members, the
Firemen about 10000, the Train
men over 100000, and the Con-
ductors about $4,000. The Associa-
ton of Colored Railway Trainmen
& Locomotive Firemen has less
than 1000 members; but is has
courage and grit. 1t has been
fighting the unions for 10 years;
along with help and cooperation
from the International Associa-
ton of Railway Employees and
the Colored Trainmen of America.
Together with the International

hostile discrimination.

If the Association in this Till
man case is able to get the Court
rule it violates the law to bar en-
ployment of Negroes off railroads
because Of race, we will have
taken a big step toward establish
ing the principle of an FE.P.C.,
because a decision against the
railroad will be a precedent
against all types of public utih-
ties: bus lines, air lines, steam
ship lines, streetcar lines, tele-
phone, gas, electricity and 50
forth.

NEGRO MOTHER
BY OLIVE ALLEN

Sun comes up and shines all day,
Then slowly sinks in the west;
Two lean, brown hands toll all day long,
Seeming never to pause for rest
Clothes to wash and clothes to press;
Children who must be fed;
Then lean, brown fingers intertwine
While little ones prayers are said.
Last in bed, but first to rise,
With a song to start the day right.
You'd never guess those sparkling eyes
Shed tears while you slept last night.
Brown face greets you with CHEEKY smiles,
Like she'd never a care at all;
But sorrow, worry, and discomfort
Lie concealed within her soul
