Fellow Officers In
Fund Drive TO
PoY CIuniS Wages

Some Minneapolis police officers
are engaged in a campaign to nulli'
fly the disciplinary suspension Of
Policeman David Clunis for club.
bing a Negro in a recent North
Side incident, while three fellow
officers held him.
Using time on the job, and po-
lice telephones and other facilities,
they are collecting a fund to reim-
burse Clunis for the loss Of salary
during his suspension.
The effect of this will be to give
Clunis free 30-day vacation as a
sort of reward for his action in
clubbing Raymond Wells while his
colleagues held Wells.
The officer on telephone duty
at police headquarters on Monday
at $50 am. told a caller that
contributions can be sent to the
North Side station.
At the North Side station a
Sergeant Marsh" confirmed this.
He advised that checks should
be made out to cash or to Dave
Clunis. Well see. that he gets
them"
Later inquiry at the Northside
Station brought the information
that the station had no Sergeant
Marsh" on its station roster.
Sergeant Marsh had evidently
disappeared after telling a report
er where and how to contribute
to the Clunis vacation" fund.

Negroes in the building trades"
Racial bias in the construction
business gets entangled in long
engrained traditions. In many
building trades, the craft unions
serve both as training school and
hiring hall. Negroes complain that
they are frozen out Of jobs be-
cause they can't join the unions or
take apprenticeship training.
When a contractor needs five
electricians or four plumbers, he
calls the local union hall. The
business agent sends over the
workers from the union list. If a
local is all white, it is obvious that
there won't be any Negroes on the
job.
In the Washington area, the
problem Of racial discrimination in
certain building trades unions has
been fostering a long time.
On the union side, leaders say
the Negroes can't hope for a dram
attic breakthrough with dozens of
Negroes suddenly taking their
place on construction jobs. They
say there aren't that many quail
flied Negroes with the necessary
slills and that it will take three
or four years for Negro apprent-
ices to complete their training.
If labor can't put its own house
in order, leaders Of the civil rights
movement feel the Federal Gov
ernment should step in.
Both the unions and the con-
tractors have been buck-passing
the blame for the racial discrim-
ination in the building trades. The
employers say they hire from the
unions and can't put Negroes to
work If they are not referred. The
unions say they have long waiting
lists for membership and apprent-
iceship training.
And the NAACP and other Ne
gro groups say they have been
waiting long enough and that
something must be done and fast,
And to this Mr.. Randolph adds
Amen"
Minneapolis spokesman., 1963-06-20

Executive Order 1902 that out
lawed racial discrimination in de-
fense industries and set the pat
tern for fair employment legisla-
ton throughout the nation.
Randolph, who is international
president of the Brotherhood of
Sleeping Car Porters and the only
Negro in the executive council of
the AFL-CIO has waged a relent-
less battle against discrimination
in labor unions.
He invoked the bitter displea-
sure Of AFL-CIO chiefton George
Meany by organizing the American
Negro Labor Council within the
federation to fight biased labor
unions.
The labor federation has an anti
discrimination policy but no means
Of enforcing it. It can expel an Of
Tending union but that would not
necessarily alter the unions dis
elimination practices. ~
Some unions that have antt-dis-
elimination policies find difficulty
in enforcing them in their locals.
Lacking real penalties, the leaders
who oppose discrimination try
logic and moral suasion.
Up to now, the drive against job
discrimination has centered on en-
ployers.
Gradually leaders are coming
around to the point Of view always
held by Randolph that one Of the
biggest hurdles to Negro employ
ment Is the discriminatory policy
of many labor unions.
The recent picketing Of a school
construction project in Philadel-
phia was described by the NAACP
as the beginning of a campaign
that would spread to many cities.
Herbert Hill, national labor Sec
retary of the association, said that
the AFL-CIO has refused to move
decisively, and even where there
are state and municipal fair en-
ployment practices commissions,
they have not used their powers to
break the pattern of exclusion of

Elected To 5fh
District Board

At the Fifth District American
Legion Convention held Friday and
Saturday at the bennington Hotel
in Minneapolis, Wayne Glanton,
retiring Commander of Johnnie
Baker Post, was elected as a men,
ber of the Executive Board.
Glanton received a large vote
from the hundreds of delegates
representing A m eric n Legion
posts from throughout the city
of Minneapolis and Richfield.
AS a delegate from Baker post
Glanton had accumulated host of
friends and supporters from many
legion posts.
Johnnie Baker Post was also
instrumental in getting one of its
members elected as a delegate to
represent the 5th District at the
American Legion's national con-
vention in Miami, Florida in Sept.
Elected was DR.. Thomas Johnson.
johnson is commander-elect of
Johnnie Baker Post.
The American Legion's national
convention was originally sched-
uled to be held at New Orleans
but the cite was shifted to Miami
about a month ago when it be-
came evident that the city of New
Orleans could not promise unsegre-
gated facilities for all legion dele
gates. Miami has given that as
surance.
Johnnie Baker will have its in
stallation of new officers next Fri
day, June 28th.

birmingham, Ala, Negroes Are
Getting Along Fine" fame) at a
council session.
The community was astonished
and Rev. Floyd Massey, Jr., of Pill
grim Baptist church, a longtime
civic leader roundly denounced the
proposal to discontinue the agency
at a time when Negroes were at
tacking discrimination in employ
ment, which is as prevalent in st.
Paul as in other communities.
A letter addressed by the branch
st. Paul NAACP to Mayor George
Vavoulis, with copies to Commits
sioners James J. Dalgish, Frank
L. Loss, Robert Peterson, Bernard
Holland, Milton Rosen and SEVERN
Mortinson expressed great concern
that any city official would con-
template discontinuing the St.
Paul FEPC, "at this critical period
in the history of America"
The letter to Mayor Vavoulis
City Council continued:
THE State Commission Against
Discrimination budget was parti-
ally based on the fact that there
is a st. Paul FEPC and a Min
neapolis FEPC. The new Fair
Housing Amendment which SCAD
administers is an additional re-
sponsibility. The case load of the
st. Paul FEPC in 1862 was twice
that of the State Commission
Against Discrimination, and it
would be impossible for the State
Commission to take on this addi-
tional responsibility.
Need Stronger City FEPC
IF there are to be any changes
in the st. Paul FEPC it should
be in terms of additional staff
people. st. Paul cannot afford to
go backward at a time when Birm-
ingham is going forward.
Minnesota must keep pace with
progress in order to maintain its
leadership role and reputation in
the field Of civil rights. The con-
tinued existence Of the st. Paul
FEPC is notice to all of its citi-
zens and those citizens Of the ma
ton that St. Paul officially en-
dorses all programs Of equal op-
portunity.
st. Paul Would BE Out OF Step
with the Presidents Message
to the Mayors of the nations
growing cities calling for among
other things additional legislation
for equal rights, st. Paul would
be out of step with the rest Of the
nation to abolish its existing and
needed FEPC."

Telstar Goes Back Into Action After Taking Electronic Aspirin

NEW YORK R - Telstar went back into action today transmitting television programs across the Atlantic, it's radiation sickness overcome by kind of electronic aspirin.
 The communications satellite had been out of operation for six weeks.
 Engineers of the Bell Telephone Laboratories diagnosed the trouble, blamed on radiation, and found way to restore normal operation.
 In essence, one translator in Telstar's command decoder was running electrical fever, refusing to act on command.
 The remedy was a trick code which cut off the electrical fever, not unlike an aspirin.
 For II minutes today, Telstar transmitted a television descrip- tion of it's ailments and remedy from a panel of engineers in New York. Then French and British stations transmitted their congratu- lations via the satellite.
 "The pictures seem as good as ever they were" said A. H. Mum ford, of the British post office. "It is wonderful achievement, in some respects almost more won derful than the original launching. We look forward to continued suc- cess"

Administration
 Seeks Pay Hike for Active Servicemen

WASHINGTON R - The ad- ministration will ask Congress to raise the pay of active duty service men and reservists of 144 per cent.
 The estimated annual cost of the proposed pay increase is about SITS billion. About four million persons would get the boost.
 President Kennedy has given his approval to the plan, Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara said yesterday. It will be submitted to Congress this month.
 The estimated cost is large, Me Namara said, "but I believe it to be fully justified"
 "Remote and isolated duty" pay for both officers and enlisted men would be substituted for "sea and foreign duty pay" The re-enlist- ment bonus for enlisted men the military wants to keep because of special skills would give way to a variable career incentive pay. The retirement pay system would be based on cost-of-living changes in- stead of merely on length of serv- ice.
 The S1.75-billion estimate is for an average year, a Defense De- partment spokesman said. As the number of those in military retire ment increases, the cost may reach S2 billion or $2.25 billion, he said
