Unemployment Among Negroes is
Double that of Whites : Hill

Unemployment among Negro
es is more than doubled that "a
mong white workers during the
current recession. Herbert Hill,
labor secretary of the National
Association for the Advancement
of Colored People, declared in an
address before the tenth constitu-
tional convention of the United
Furniture Workers, AFL-CIO,
held in New York City.
Addressing the convention on
May 10, Mr. Hill cited figures
from the United States Census
bureau which has estimated the
non-White unemployment rate to
be higher now than at any time
IN the past IL years during which
the bureau has reported unem-
ployment statistics by color.
During the past three years the
non-white unemployment rate
has been almost consistently more
than double the white unemploy-
mint rate" Mr.. Hill said. This
would indicate that very limited
progress has been made in secur-
ing for the Negro worker the
same relative degree of employ
ment stability that the white

worker enjoys"
1t IS clear that the differen-
tial IN employment stability be-
tween white and Negro workers
has been extended both in years
of prosperity is well as in years
of economic Decline" the NAACP
labor specialist continued. All
available data clearly indicated
that the ratio of unemployment
among non-whites as compared to
that of whites has been steadily
increasing since 1851"
Mr. Hill said that the economic
level of Negroes remains sub
stantially below that of the white
population
He called for the use of the
full power and authority of the
organized labor movement to
eliminate discriminatory prac-
tees in regard to Negro workers.
Statements of policy are neces-
sary end welcome but totally in

unless backed by decisive organi-
rational authority" he added.
Mr. Hill also re-affirmed the
NAACP position against the
right to work. laws which, he
pointed out, mot only endanger
the organized labor movement.
but also are detrimental to the
rights of eolored workers and the
economic well-being of the en-
tire Negro community"
