The mayor was urged to file
in a letter made public by j.
Newton Brewer. jr., a Montgom-
cry County Democratic leader.
who pledged to Mr.. D'Alesandro
his enthusiastic Endorsement.
Endorsed by Dorsey
Mr.. Mahoney's candidacy was
Endorsed in a statement from
Philip H. Dorsey. jr.. of ST.
Marys County. who ran unsuc-
cessfully for Attorney General as
Mr.. Mahoney's running mate in

years as peoples counsel to the
Maryland Public Service Com
mission. garnered 10000 votes
more than c. Ferdinand Sybert
in the 1854 Democratic primary,
but lost the Attorney General
nomination on the basis Of unit
votes. Mr.. Mahoney also lost
the gubernatorial nomination in
that primary to DR.. H. c. Byrd.
who subsequently was defeated
by Republican Gov. McKeldin.

Mr.. Dorsey said that Gin three
Democratic primaries. Mr.. Ma
honey has demonstrated his pop
ularity in the party"
Mr.. Brewer, Washington in
vestment banker who lives near
Rockville and often is rumored
as a candidate for State Demo-
cratic Party chairman. said in
his letter to Mayor D'AleSandro:

there is no reason why we could

Senator Gray had this to say
about why the change to Section

THE amendment of the con-
stitution would permit educa-
tional aid for individual students
lin localities which decline te
operate public schools, and te
individual children whose par
ents decline to send them to q
school which NAV have enrolled
pupils of both races,
"In other words, we have put
foremost the welfare Of the in
dividual pupil and the mainte-
nance of his educational oppor-
ltunities.
Without the adoption of oul

nitely that the future of oul

downtown area. An ordinance was
adopted by the City Council last
July making it mandatory for
property owners to restore curb

of the City Engineer the driveway
is no longer needed Shortly after
wards notices were sent to 70
downtown property owners advis-
ing them to replace abandoned
driveway openings. Status of the
closure orders are as follows, 13
rescinded, - delinquent, 81 pend
ing, authorized a delay of 80 to
so days, and 21 drivewayS have
been closed. In some cases, drive
ways lead to display windows or

"3-That such refusal on the

stated that they observed policies
which were opposed to discrimina-

of policy made by SUP and MFOW
were false and that their avowed
intention not to discriminate was
in practice wholly disregarded and
affirmatively violated"
In support or these "offers of
proof" there was amassed a wealth
of testimony and evident
There were 38 cooks and ste
wards in the hearing room at this
point, all members of the ILWU
Stewards Department. Every one
of them wanted to testify, but were
refused. Their attorney could only
get their testimony in by an "of-

that he has been sailing on West

II take it there is nobody around
the counsel table that disputes it,
or the Hearing Officer. The men
are here in the hearing room and
are prepared to testify in the
manner in which / said they would
testify. My information came from
them during the recess that we had

counsel table in full view of every
body in the hearing room, so there
can't be any doubt about the walls

these 38 or 40 men are but a
sample of the 1900 men who, as

Here is another offer Of proof
made by the attorney of the
NUN1CS:
"Now, we would further call in
this connection as a witness, Jonas
Payne; that Mr.. Payne, after be-
ing sworn, would testify as follows:

There was one obvious obstacle
to any such deal. How could the
NLRB certify a jim crow union to
represent cooks and stewards, 70
per cent of whom were Negro or
other minority groups? If the Jim
crow STU were certified, Negroes
would have to join and be dis
patched exclusively from the STU
hiring hall by grant of an eXclu-
sive license from the United States
government. Would they not be
granting a license to discriminate ?
How could this be squared with
the stated national policy of no dis
elimination? We don't know
whether they planned way to get
around this obstacle or whether
they just stumbled through it.
Here is what happened: When
the ILWU started to present
overwhelming proof that the SUP
and the Marine Firemen were and
had long been jim crow unions Mr..
Jennings, the attorney for Lunde-
berg, came in with a promise that
they will not discriminate against
any of the persons in the collective
bargaining unit on the basis Of
race, creed, or color" Immediately
counsel for another union said,
I'VE are prepared to show as a
matter of proof that these asser-
tions are false, have been false,
are now false, and will continue. to
be, false
Yet the NLRB hearing officer,
,Mr. Louis S. Penfield, refused to
admit any evidence whatsoever to
show whether this promise was
worthy of belief. After all, prom

WHAT THE NLRB HEARING
OFFICER REFUSED TO HEAR

Since the hearing officer re-
fused to admit evidence on dis
elimination, the attorney for
ILWU, Mr. Norman Leonard, made
what is technically called "offers
of proof" as follows:
"1-That at the time of the fill
ing Of the petition in this case,
as we'll as throughout the period
Of the hearing and for at least
20 years prior thereto, no Negro
seaman had been or was being
employed in the deck and engine
departments of ships operated by
the employers
'2-That such exclusion Of Ne
groes from such employment was
the direct and proximate result of
and was caused by the refusal of
SUP and MFOW to dispatch for
employment through their hiring
halls Negroes otherwise qualified
for employment during the entire
period in question.
