Two Firemen DENY
Requesting Transfer
For Racial Reason

Two Negro District flremen
today said they had requested
transfer from one company to
another for personal reasons Of
their own and not because they
wanted to get out of an integ-
rated company.
They explained their positions
at a press conference called by
Representative Powell, Democrat.
of New York, in reply to charges
made by a fire department batal-
lion chief at a recent House
District subcommittee hearing.
The officer, Battalion Chief
Sidney G. Carter, had testified
Monday that the two Negro fire.
men had asked for transfer from
an integrated to a segregated
unit.
Mr.. Powell called the press
conference in a House Once
Building committee room to hear
statements from these two fire.
men and others. They were Ivan
r. Elmore and Paul Galloway.
Received No Answer.
Mr.. Powell said he had not
heard from the House District
subcommittee holding hearings
on integration in the fire depart F.,
ment after requesting an oppor-
tunity to testify. He said he
hoped to get the story of the
colored firemen before the public
because he feared that the sub
committee might not offer such
an opportunity till after the
damage was done"
In two different public hear
ings by the subcommittee headed
by Representative Davis, Demo-
crat, of Georgia, several fire de-
partment officers charged that
integration was damaging the
morale of the whole department
and that its efficiency was being
lessened.
Mr.. Powell in a letter to Mr..
Davis last week end asked that
the hearings on legislation to
restore racial segregation in the
Fire Department be called off.
In a letter to Commissioner Spen-
Ger, Mr.. Powell had charged
Battalion Chief Elmer F. Stein
Lied" when he stated that Negro
members Of integrated fire COM
panies had asked to be moved.
Explains Reason.
Pvt. Elmore, who was shifted
to an all-Negro Engine Com
pany No. l3 last Monday, said
he originally had asked to be
transferred because he hoped to
go to the new f1rehouse under
construction at Forty-ninth and
Central avenue NE. Pvt. Elmore
said he renewed this request
January l for transfer to the
new company.
Pvt. Galloway said he was
transferred from integrated En-
giine Company No. 81 two weeks
ago. He said he had requested
hoping to get into the
new firehouse so he could get
a promotion to first wagon
driver with more pay"
Asked if he preferred an in
tegrated or segregated company.
Pvt. Galloway said "I'd like to
be in an integrated company"
