Harlem Labor Union Deplores Union Bias
James A. Blades Jr., business
manager of the Harlem Labor
Union, this week charged that in
i at leAst two instances, New York
I City “is imposing a hardship up-
lion citizens by catering to unfair
| labor tactic of certain unions.”
Mr. Blades cited the situation
existing at the Annex to Harlem
Hospital, 136th St. and Lenox
Avenue where work was halted
last June on orders from City
Hall after Civil Rights groups
| picketed the site claiming that
non - whites were discriminated
against by the building trades un
ions in the construction of the an-
L nex.
In the meanwhile, Mr. Blades
I said that newspapers reported
j that the contractor, J. P. Blitz,
j Inc., is submitting a daily bill of
from $500 • $850 which would
place it in the neighborhood of
$100,000 of Nov. 1.
zed moving van workers — has
been in effect denied this right
by a local agency. In fact we
have not even seen the list, not
to mention being placed thereon.
“Upon scores of occasions HLU
truckmen have been stopped at
projects by workmen. However,
we encounter no trouble from
Teamster Union officials after we
show our credentials which they
know are official. This harrass-
ment could be avoided if the
Housing Authority would treat all
bcna-fide unions alike.
Need Center
“In the case of the Harlem
Hospital, we have a group of
biased unions refusing to give
qualified non - whites the right
to jobs in their own neighborhood,
while at the same time taxing
these same mistreated workers
unfair labor organizations for
holding up work upon a medical
center «o badly needed in Har
lem.”
James T. Harper, president of
HLU added this comment: “For
nearly thirty years, HLU has pro
tected the jobs of thousands of
workers, both black and white,
by union contracts which in
clude, among other standard ben
efits, a guaranteed annual wage.
“We wholeheartedly condemn
Jim Crow unionism, ‘sweetheart’
contracts and boss • union collu
sion. We equally oppose City
Hall favoritism towards any par
ticular union; the denial of work
ers the right to Join bona-fide un
ions of their own choosing anc

told to hire only moving compa

Reduction In Rent
The 15 families of 228 W. 123rd|
St. were directed Monday by the.

Three happy, healthy little girls keep the David J. Johnson, Jr. home in Baltimore
ringing with laughter and music. Here they enjoy a comparatively quiet “tea” party
beside their doll house. Left to right: Avis, P/i years; Marchell, 10; and Dana, 3.
What are these little girls made of?
Sugar and spice and everything nice

"All my girls were Carnation babies,”
Mrs. Johnson points out “The doctor
recommended it-and it’s still their fa
vorite milk.” Even when you add an
equal amount of water, Carnation is
richer than sweet, whole milk.*
