•fc-
Negroes
Negroes themselves are block
ing their integration in white un
ions, AFL - CIO president George
L. Meany charged in Chicago last
week.
“Most of the segregated unions
are remaining segregated be
cause the local Negro unions
don't want to amalgamate with
white unions,” the labor federa
tion leader asserted.
He added that apprentice rolls
must be opened to more Negroes
and the drive for equal employ
ment opportunities must be con
tinued? but “wfc have a problem
in getting cooperation with the
Negroes.”
Hildebrand's Comment
NAACP national labor secre
tary Herbert Hill could not be
reached in New York for com
ment, but the Rev. Richard Allen
Hildebrand, president of the New
York NAACP and member of the
six - agency Joint Committee for
Equal Employment Opportunity
in the Construction industry,
said:
“I don't know enough about un
ions here to say anything, but
if that's frue it's probably be
cause members of Negro unions
don’t have any confidence in in
tegrated unions where white men
hold leadership positions. They
(Negroesi want to rise to those
positions, not be just mere mem
bers, and that's probably why
they want to stay in their un
ions, if that (Meany’s) conten
tion is true."

East Harlem Study
Clubs May Reopen
There was a small ray of hopeMIcated that foundation or
in East Harlem this week that
the Neighborhood Study Club and
three others in the city could be
revived if enough pledges of
financial support came.
The East Harlem study club
at East 100th St. and Second
Ave. was forced to abandon the
premises last month after nine
months of activity. The rent was
long overdue, expenses had piled
up and the treasury had run dry.
The East Harlem, like the other
three clubs, was supported by the
Richmond, Field and Hess Foun
dations, All were under guidance
of the .city’s Neighborhood Con
servation Program and were con
sidered pilot projects.
DIVERTED FUNDS
The Richmond Foundation which
staked $25,000 to launch the clubs
last year, said funds had to be
diverted subsequently because of
other commitment* by its pre
sident Frederick W. Richmond.
Heeding the present clamor
for reopening of the clubs, how
ever, the Foundation said it
would study how much is needed
to resume operation.
Meanwhile, neighborhood sour
ces have offered to help out.
One such gesture was made by
a
he would chip in $20 a month.
The landlord of the East Har
lem building where the club
served as a beacon for boys
and girls who wanted to do their
homework and get some needed
assistance, has agreed to waive
the $150-a-month rental for a
period of three months to get
the club started again.
foundation, they would rather do
it themselves — reopen the clubs
with their nickels and dimes.
