Less Than 500
Negroes In u. S.
BREWING Industry

New York City-A twenty-four
city survey recently completed by
the National Urban League shows
that less than one per cent Of the
workers in the five billion dollar
brewery industry, one of Ameri-
cas- biggest enterprises, are Ne
gro, 1t was announced on
October IL by Lester b.
Granger, the Leagues executive
director. The Urban League Is a
national interracial service Or
ganization to promote equal en-
ployment opportunities for all.
OF the $1,000 workers engaged
In the industry approximately 500
are Negroes and less than Is are
employed in production. The EN-
ployment Of Negroes before 1888
the survey reports. was negligible.
Since that time Negroes have
found jobs primarily as unskilled
workers, statesmen and promotion
specialists for the Negro market.
A limited number Of breweries
employ Negroes as driver sales
men.
The seventy-one page survey,
"A study Of the Employment OPP
portunities for Negroes in the
Breweries Of the United States"
was conducted by J. Harvey
Kerns, the Leagues assistant re-
search director. II covered 80
breweries located in six large pro-
duction states; Illinois. Missouri,
New Jersey, New York, Pennsyl-
vania and Wisconsin. In addition
to on-the-spot conferences with
officials of the breweries covered
in the survey, Mr.. Kerns conferred
with officials of the United States
Brewers Foundation In New
York and the International Union
of United Brewery Workers, CLIO,
to obtain the facts In order to pre-
sent them effectively to manage
ment and labor.
while this is a grim picture
generally there is hopeful aspects
Of arrangements attitude toward
correcting these limited employ
ment opportunities in the indus
try" Mr.. Granger declared. Since
the survey was made a number
of breweries in the Milwaukee and
New York areas, in consultation
with Mr.. Kerns, have taken steps
to recruit and employ qualified
Negro workers in occupations in
their plants which were formerly
closed to them. The League hopes
for rapid improvement of the sit
uation."
League representatives confer
red with officials of the Brewers
Foundation and pointed out TO
them their responsibility for help
ing correct unfair practices in
their industry. And asked them to
take positive stands on the mat
ter Of equitable employment Of
Negroes, and also to advise their
member firms to work coopera-
lively with the Urban League in
opening doors for qualified Negro
workers at all levels.
The Urban League has advised
its SO local League of steps to be
taken to obtain employment for
Negroes in the industry and win
continue its conversations with
the Foundation and officials Of
leading breweries and the union.
A statement authorized by the
Brewery Workers Unions Execu-
tive Board after reviewing the
findings Of the League survey
said, Our International Union Is
opposed to d discrimination in en-
ployment based on race, color or
creed. We recognize that the time
