SEGREGA7IONIST CALLS MEETING

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - What
was termed as grave concern"
by the alummni over the ad-
mission of Negroes into Wander
bilt University prompted the
president of the pro-segregation
Tennessee Federation for Con-
stitutional Government last week
to call meeting of the alumni.
Sims Grownover, head OF the
anti-integration group and an
alumnus of Vanderbilt, said he
had five children all OF whom
he expected to send to Wander
bilt.
"Now 1 definitely will not send
them there, so long as Negroes
are in the University" he added.
Grownover is a lawyer for the
Tennessee Federation for Con-
stitutional Government, an or
ganization that has been active
ly engaged in legal procedure
to halt integration at Clinton
hibh school.
Meanwhile, officials at the uni
versity said they had received
little reaction, pro or con, to
the announcement last week Of
Negro students completing re-
giStration.

there are very wide varianceS

region, while in another region
a few hundred miles away they

A big part of the meat in

the changes, large and small,
that take place in the markets
and to satisfy them. 1t sees that
people everywhere get what they
want-and when they want it.
And they do that for an amaz-
ingly small charge, as the fact
that the packers averaged less
than a cent of profit on each
dollar of sales last year proves.

WHAT UNIONISTS CAN Dc
ON Civil RIGHTS
THE NEGRO STRUGGLE
Myra Tanner Weiss

erS Party Candidate for Vice
President. The following is a
portion of a speech she gave
Sept. Is over CBSTV. It is an
addition to the text of the
broadcast as printed in last
weeks Militant.)
The Negro people in the South
must not be left to fight for
justice alone. It is the duty of
the organized labor movement
throughout the country to come
to their aid. If the White Citi-
zenS Councils-who hate unions
as much as they hate Negroes
are permitted to dominate the
South, the promised campaign
of the AFL-CIO to organize
Southern workers. white and
black, will be defeated in ad-
vance.
The very same rulers of the
South who perpetuate the Jim
Crow system, also maintain the
union-busting, so-called right
to-work laws, the open shop, low
wages and sub-standard work.
ing conditions. The very same
SheriffS and cops who brutally
maltreat Negroes are ready to
do the same to union organizers
and picket lines.
Low living standards which
mean a shorter life-Span for
both Negroes and whites in the
South drag down wage stand
ards all over the country. The
power of reactionary Southern
congressman in the federal gov
ernment is the mainstay of all
the anti-labor laws, like the
Taft-Hartley Act. Social legis-
lation like an increased mini
mum wage and increased social
security are blocked by the re-
dictionary Southern Democrats
as well as by the Republicans.
For progress on the political
field. the labor movement must
defeat the racistS in the South.
This campaign must begin at
cnce. The combined labor move
ment has great financial power.
It could use some of these funds
to go on the air in the South,
over TV and radio, to fight the
racist propaganda of the White
Citizens Councils. Union organ
izers from every international
could aid their brothers and
sisters in the South, they could
become a rallying center for all
Negro and white workers who
want to fight together for bet
ter wages and working condi-
tions for all instead of fighting
each other.
There are many things each
of you can do to help in this
great struggle for freedom. First,
you can introduce resolution
in your union meeting asking
that the union organizing drive
in the South be started at once.
Tell the top labor officials:
Instead of aping the rich with
big salaries and trips to the
Florida beaches, they should do
what they are supposed to do:
that is, organize the inorganic
ed.
Secondly, you can send finan-
cial help, yes and station wag-
ons too to Montgomery and
Tallahassee for those who are
walking for freedom rather than
ride buses where they are Sc
gregated and inSulted every day
of their lives. A reporter asked
