Had Trouble I'm
obFaining Hotel
Rooms I'm 1885

In August Of 1885, the Heyers
Sisters, a colored comedy COM
pRny, came to st. Paul. As they
had no other means Of living &C.
comodations, they applied at the
Sixth Avenue hotel for rooms.
Huntington, the hotel manager,
refused them rooms, stating that
IL was not specified in the con-
tract that the company was color
ed and he had not been advised 10
make special arrangements nee
esary for the entertainment of
colored persons.
The Heyer Sisters went TO the
st. James hotel, after having been
refused Accommodations at the
Sixth Avenue, threatening TO bring
suit against Huntington under the
civil rights law. But no record
could be found Of such a suit.
Another case Of segregation In
hotels in the early days happened
in May Of 1887, when William A.
Hazel, a newcomer, was refused
accommodation at the Clarendon
hotel, owned by the Foley Bro
Tiers.
Hazel brought suit against the
hotel under the common law, and
won a verdict in his favor. The
case was tried under Judge Kelly,
and Henry Johns was the lawyer
for the plaintiff.
This case set the precedent for
hotels in regard to accommodating
Negroes In future years.

In the early days in Minnesota,
Negroes were seldom referred to
as Negroes. They were called, by
both races, "Afro-Americans," or
people Of African descent" The
Negroes, in turn, often referred
to the whites as "AngIo-Saxons."

5000 worth Of stock has been
subscribed for and 5000 Of this
amount has been paid for in cash.
Although the share are limited
70 the members Of the Local, we
do not feel 1t La clanishness on our
part. We believe a group Of in
dividuals belonging TO the same
union, working on the same job
and receiveing a like amount Of
salary should be able to better
succeed in a business venture.
While we have mistaken faith in
the honesty Of our brothers, we
are not proceeding on faith alone

MEMBER OF THREE GROUPS
While we serve our members on
the local level we are in turn a
member Of three other great or
ganizations: The Joint Council
Of Dining Car Employees" and
The Hotel & Restaurant EN-
ployees and Bartenders Interna-
tional Union" The Joint Council
is under the jurisdiction of the
international. 1t was organized
specifically to meet the needs of
dining car employees. 1t has a
membership of $4,000 walters,
cooks and various other railroad
employees. II Is the medium
through which the various dining
car locals progress their cases to
the Mediation Board. In short it
is their legal bargaining agency on
the national level.
The Internationl of course is
our parent body. While many of US
were q bit skeptical of it in the
beginning, it has proved to be an
organization Of great value. 1t re-
presents more than 400, 900 work.
ers and has Jurisdiction in both
the United States and Canada.
While we do not have the figures
as to the number of colored MEM
bers, we are safe in saying a sub
stantial number of its members
are our people. Not only are they
members but they participate in
all of the activities. Brother
George e. Brown, Vice President
at-large and also a member of the
Executive Board is a Negro. His
present salary Is in excess of
$500 plus an unlimited expense
account. Brother Legion Weston,
one of the General Organizers has
also been with the International
for many years. These are the
ones we know In our area. The In
ternational makes no distinction
because of a mans color; unless
you happen to know the individ-
ual, you win never know his color

ORGANIZED LABOR IS
SOLVING RACE PROBLEM
Hugo Ernst, President of the
International throws the influence
of his powerful position and the
weight of the International
squarely behind civil rights, He
said: The Congress struck down
the appeal Of one-tenth of the pop
ulation for equal justice with all
other citizens by refusing to pass
civil rights legislation" r. l.
Davis, Director Of the Department
Of Research and Education says:
Organized Labor knows that the
continued subsection Of our Negro
citizens can only end in the en-
slavement Of all. Although Con-

UNIONISM 1907

UNAONASm lOOIo
Before the present era of union
ism, our group was exploited to a
much greater degree than any
other workers in the United
States. In 1896 a dining car
walters job was insecure; he
worked in an atmosphere Of pres
sure and constant fear. The boot
of the boss weighed heavy on his
neck. His salary was in the brac-
ket of the starvation wage. Under
the union his salary has risen from
$500 per month in 1887 to $685.
90 in 1919. Today our General
Chairman, Hector p. Vassar,
stands ever ready to defend the
rights and jobs of our members.
Not only this, but he can invoke
the services Of the Joint Council,
and If necessary he can even sum-
mon the powerful International
and its vast treasury to the de-
tense Of an individual worker.
In the light Of these undeniable
facts 1t is hard to believe we still
have men working who are negli-
gent in paying their dues. or who
even refuse to join the union at
all.
We have shown how the union
has raised the salary and improv-
ed the working conditions on the
job, how it is striving to raise the
standard of living in the commun-
ity, and finally how it is solving
the race problem. Therefore, our
people above all others should sup
port the every program of Organ
lied Labor.

 Hit Rent Control Laxity

Monthly charges would be SAT - or SO percent higher than the $32 in the Bowles plan. No homes 1 would be available for rent under the Republican plan, the organiza- tion points out. The COP legislature is hit on the grounds that no action has fol- lowed MT. Bowles' proposal for automatic continuance of the Fed eral Rent Control law which ex- pires in 1850.
 For school aid, ADA supports the Bowles plan allowing State aid for current operating expenses in local schools to be a1located on the basis of need, rather than state or town.
 The Connecticut organization wants Senate Bill 976 to pass. This bill means a cut of a few cents monthly in gas, electric and utility bills, since it would cut the price utility companies pay bankers for floating their securities. A cut in interest rate on these securities would mean a cut in gas and cleo tric rates, since this interest is taken into consideration in setting rates.
 Sales Tax ssHeadache''
 The two percent sales tax is branded a headache to merchants and an unfair burden which :. hits low income families much harder than high income people,"
 The Republican labor program, ADA declares, represents round zero, while the Bowles program calls for 75c minimum wage, non- discrimination in women's salary scales, higher unemployment com pensations, workers compensation in the event of sickness or on-the- job injury; improved mediation and arbitration services and higher payments for workers injured on
