The vote here now brings to 20,

Some Stin Bar Negro Workers
However, many locals which ex-
ercise autonomy, still operate in
violation Of their national constitu-
lions by barring Negro member

building trades.
Randolph, president Of the Bro

vice president, has carried on a
long and unrelenting fight against
racial barriers in organized labor,
particularly in the rail unions.
Randolph could not be reached

However, the railroad industry
