Protest Against
Discrimination

NEW YORK = CAMP - Once

Longshoreman's Association, ALL
is protesting unfair treatment and
discrimination.
In letter to Gov. Thomas Dew
ey last week, they requested his
aid in ending what is said to be
discrimination against the organi-
cation by top union officials and
management.
Officers of the local, in which the
membership is almost exclusively
Negro and the only one of it's type
in the port of New York, threaten
ed 10 days ago to renew their 10
year fight for recognition by the
unions international leaders. They
accused the latter of seeking to
freeze" them off the water front
to prevent their members from
working at local piers.
The letter declares that 968 is
the only local of the union in the
port of New York that exercised
no jurisdiction over water front
piers. It's members the letter states,
have been allotted "no place, neigh
borhood or otherwise to work"
At present, the membership of
local 968 has increased to 500 men.
Most of them are employed at the

you get him home, else you may
end up with a sick or dead pup.

arrange to have him delivered a

THINGS You WANT TO KNOW
IN BUYING CHRISTMAS PUPPY

The number of puppies that Will
be given as gifts this Christmas
will likely set an. all-time record,
it is predicted by Harry Miller,
director of the Gaines Dog Re-
search Center, New York, AHEAD
ing source of dog information.
Of the estimated $4,000 homes
that will acquire a puppy this
Yuletide, a substantial number
will be right in this area, he states.
MIR. Miller has compiled a list
of pitfalls to be avoided" in adj
ding puppy to the family circle
this Christmas. There is dog for
every purpose, one to suit the age
and temperament of any owner,
and with little careful planning
each can be sure of getting exact
ly what is needed or wanted, ne
suggests.
/. If undecided as to breed, a
visit to a dog show, where var
iety of breeds are on exhibit,
should prove helpful. If no dog
show is being held in the vicinity,
visits to local kennels of different
breeds will help make up your
mind.
2. Don't get puppy too young
not under ten or twelve weeks.
The younger the puppy the more
care it requires.
3. If you are not sure the puppy
is healthy, insist on veterinary
statement before purchase.
4. If you want to be sure the
pup is purebred, request regis
tration certificate, which should
also show transfer to you as the
