Hit Tokenism
The demonstration protested
what the committee calls "token
ism’’ on the part of construction
unions of the AFL - CIO which
opened their three - day 52nd
annual convention at the hotel.
Peter J. Brennan, president of
the New York Building Trades
Council, which Includes the 122
construction unions and their 18
crafts, said weeks ago that “at
least a dozen" Negroes had been
accepted into building unions.
"We’re not after tokenism,"
said the Rev. Richard Allen Hil
debrand, chairman of ths com
mittee. “We want more Negroes
to get into the construction indus-
I 18 la
The committee said it had ob
tained information that as of last
Oct. 8 — aAer Brennan made the
statement — only 10 Negroes had
been admitted to some unions in
the industry, adding that 5 were
taken in the Painters, Decorators
and Paper-hangers union. 1 by its
Local 1, 3 by the International
Union of Operating Engineers and
1 by Local 1 of the Elevator Con
structors’ Union.
So far as it knew, said the
committee, no Negro has been
admitted into the major craft un
ions. such as the plumbers,
steamfitters, structural ironwork
ers and the metallic lathers, most
of which are white.

particularly in the building and
construction trades unions, when
he addresses the delegates at the
fifth biennial meeting of the 14-
million-member federation.
The federation's civil rights
program is to be a major item
on the house of labor’s agenda.
Randolph, who was chairman
of the inarch on Washington last
Aug. 28. is the federation's chief
advocate of civil rights and the
ranking Negro of its estimated
1,500,000 Negro methbers.
“Now"
In an interview with The Am
sterdam News, tiie labor-civil
rights leader said the "fight by
unions” against bias has to

moderator's council which car
ries out the assembly's policies
and mandates.
A stated clerk is the highest
executive officer of the denom-
nation. Dr. Eugene Carson Blake
is the present stated clerk.
If elected by the church's Gen
eral Assembly, the governing
body which meets next May 21
in Oklahoma City, Mr. Hawkins
could become the first Negro to
be elected moderator of the de
nomination which has 3,249.007
active communicant members
The present moderator is the
Rev. Dr. Silas G. Kessler.
Mr. Hawkins came close to be
coming moderator In 1960 when
he received 469 votes to the 471
of Dr. Herman L. Turner who,
upon election, appointed him vice
moderator of the denomination.
He was the first of his race to
hold that position.
Prior to that he served as
moderator of the New York City
Presbytery during the 1959-1960
period.
The- minister of St. Augustine's
Church since 1938 when he grad
uated from Union Theological
Seminary, Mr. Hawkins said
after his nomination:
"begin" now, adding that he was
hopeful of arousing greater moral
support from the federation » del
egatee on the Issue.
“There is an increasingly grow
ing and' strong commitment
among unions against bias.” he
said. "The moral forces are being
rallied.'*
He said he would mate definite
and positive recommendations to
the federation to get its Negro
members, most of whom draw
comparatively smeller salaries
than their white co-members. Into
"apprenticeship and training pro
grams, policy-making and ad
minlstrative positions and Into
the officially family.”
He suggested that a greater
degree of resistance to Negroes
came from the federation's build
ing and construction affiliates,
but ruled out the possibility of
seeking stiff disciplinary mea
sures against them when he said
they were "autonomous” unions
whose support would have to be
obtained by “moral suasion.”
Blames Negroes
Randolph, who Is also president
of the Brotherhood of Sleeping
Car Porters and the Negro A-
merican Labor Council, blamed
Negroes for a share of the bias
towards them.
“Much of the discrimination Is
due to the Negro himself.” he
said.“They don’t attend meetings
as they should; some of them are
inarticulate and others ere un
acquainted with their rights
(within the house of labor)
On the other hand, he con
tinued. many Negro members are
showing a greater “militancy”
and Interest In union affairs and
in their increasing responsibility
in the federation.
George L. Meany, the federa
tion's president, has been report
ed to have selected Randolph to
lead the discussion on civil
rights.
It is believed that Walter
Reuther, president of the United
Automobile Workers, feels the
AFL-CIO should take more ag
gressive steps to either attack or
completely destroy bias within
the federation and to integrate its
membership.
Reuther had endorsed the
Washington march and was one
of its vice chairmen. He took
the action after the federation's
executive council refused to
formally support It at the request
of its only Negro top official.
More To Come
It is the committee’s feeling, it
was made known, that the tqn
nonwhites accepted Into the in
dustry were concessions made
by the unions in an effort to dis
courage further public protests.
The Rev. Hildebrand hinted
that more demonstrations would
be called In the ftiture when he
said Brennan and other officers
of the trades council had not
shown "good faith” by their ac
tion in breaking off negotiations
with the committee last Oct. 2
“It Is an unusual honor for the
Presbytery to endorse me for
this. I certainly hope that I can
fulfill this kind of confidence.
He has warranted the Pres
bytery's confidence by building
his parish from 25 to more than
1,000 members.

The Artists And Writers Explain Their Xmas Boycott
The Association of Artists for Freedom, whose
•
ynembers caused quite a stir last month when they pro
posed a Chritmas-buying boycott by Negroes and their
Supporters for civil rights justice Now, have issued
the following statement to buttress their stand:
“We believe in Christinas, because it is the birth
day of the Prince of Peace and Brotherhood; the biFth-
day of the Christ who chased the money-changers
Irom the temple; who said. ‘Love thy neighbor as thy-
■self’; who said, ‘Suffer the little children to come unto
me, for such is the Kingdom of Heaven.’ This is the
Christ we will celebrate; the great Jewish carpenter-
philosopher who was born in a manger in Bethlehem.
“Thousands of atrocities committed against hum
anity and the Negro people from slavery to the pres
ent time, have gone unpunished. And now we are
mocking the Prince of Peace; throwing bombs in the
Holy Place of God: blasting the brains of His children
against the high walls of His Tabernacle in Birming
ham; turning His day of days into a sabbath ritual of
blood and destruction. We are guilty.
“Not only those who planted the bomb, but those
who condone injustice and segregation and thereby
give it sanction; those who profit from it and those
who do not work to eradicate it. We are all guilty. And
who among us can participate in life as usual, in bus
iness as usuaL, or even Chirstmas as usual?

Of Progressive Baptists
'It was inevitable that the break in the National
Baptist Convention, U.S.A., Inc., which led' to the
formation of the Progressive National Baptist Con

part comparable to the Empire Baptist Missionary
Convention..
The honor of organizing the
New York Progressive Baptist
State Convention fell to the Rev.
John H. Nichols, pastor of the
First Calvary Baptist Church, 953
Putnam Ave., Brooklyn. At the
first annual session of the P.N.B.
C. held In Philadelphia in 1962,
Rev. Nichols had been elected
president of the Moderators Coun

Back ia N.Y.
Back in New York he sent let

registered at the Philadelphia
convention, urging them to Join
In the formation of a state con

No doubt, in recognition of this
effort, the New York Progres

Donald Harris, 23-year-old New
Yorker who was saved from a
possible death sentence in Geor
gia along with three others by
a federal court ruling which
outlawed the state’s 92-year old
insurrection law, was headed
back to Americus, Ga., late Wed
nesday to resume the voter reg
istration campaign which had
almost cost his life.-
“When the federal court hand
ed down its decision I left jail
in such a hurry that I didn't
get a chance to see a lot of
people who are so dedicated, and
I feel I must get back and be
at the rally Thursday night,” the
Fieldston and Rutgers graduate
told the Amsterdam News in
an exclusive interview in the
family's apartment in the River
ton project.
Treatment
Harris, who along with John
Pedrew, Ralph Allen, and Tho
mas McDaniel, had been jailed
since last Aug. 8 and denied
hail, said he felt that the nation
wide attention given their Jail-
ings had helped to keep down
any bitterness and tough treat
ment against them while in pri
son.
"We were treated essentially
as the other prisoners,” Harris
said in discussing his three
ges that he and the three other
SNCC workers were inciting in
surrection. a capital offense. The
law, which the court declared
unconstitutional, was passed dur
ing slavery days to prevent run
aways.
After their quick weekend trip
hero for five days, Harris and
Ralph Allen, a white student on
leave from Hartford's Trinity
College, will return to their voter
registration drive Friday morn
ing. They still have to face a
hearing on the federal court de

already highly charged issue; laws alone cannot
produce the full result we need.”
Well, personally, I give less than a you-can-
guess-what that some white people’s emotions are
going to run rampant because we want to insure our
freedom. Our emotions have run pretty high when
we have seen lynchings and our children bombed in
churches.
-^s for the familiar crack about laws not being
the end-all, I have to go along with Dr. Martin King
in observing that “laws cannot make (he white man
love me, but they can keep him from lynching me—
and I think that’s fairly important.”
I think it is also important for the Negro people
to keep a wary eye on the Republicans—some Repub
licans like Goldwater, Dirksen, Nixon and Mr. Eisen
hower. In parting, let me remind General Eisenhower
that if he had used gradualism and moderation on
D-Day on the beachheads of Europe, we wouldn’t
have to worry about civil rights. We just wouldn’t be
here.

Their freedom came as a
three-judge federal court panel
declared the insurrection law un
constitutional after NAACP at
torneys argued for their release.
Jack Greenberg, NAACP Le
gal Defense counsel, said the
court's action would be useful
in other cases where Southern
ers seek to harass and Intimidate
civil rights workers.
Harris, son of Mr. and Mrs
Nathaniel O. Harris, of 2225 Fifth
Ave., said that be felt the South
Georgia city was beginning to
see that it could not hold out
forever, as he cited such gains
as the integrating of the public
library, a recent rescinding of
segregation ordinances, and the
serving of a mixed couple in a
restaurant in Americus.
The SNCC volunteer said he
has thought of returning back
to Rutgers, but right now he
wants to get "back on the firing
lines. There are a lot of nice
people who are waiting for us,
and we can’t let them down."
"It will be nice getting back,”
Harris declared.

The 33.000-ton liner has had to
cancel sailings since the breakout
of the Neuroh dispute last Sept.
14 resulting in the refusal of its
unlicensed crewmen to operate
the ship until the first assistant
engineer was removed.
The first assistant engineer Is
Louis Neurohr who was absolved
of charges of making racial and
religious slurs against unlicensed
crewmen who were members of
the National Maritime Union.
Neurohr’s transfer from the
liner was sought by Theodore
Kheel. Impartial arbitrator for
the NMU, but the Marine Benefi
cial Association, Neurohr’s union
opposed the suggestion and lat
er, at Its own hearing, cleared
him of discrimination against Ne
gro, Puerto Rican and Jewish
crewmen.
Because of the NMU’s refusal
to operate the ship and MEBA’s
opposition to its member's remov
al. the liner has had to cancel
its sailings. ...

Stay away from people with
colds.

by tiny germs called viruses
in the nose and throat. These
germs are spread by a person
who has a cold through cough

may catch a cold by getting too
close to the pereon, especially if
he fails to cover coughs or snee
zes and sprays the air around
you with germs. You breathe in
these germs and soon may suffer
from a nasty cold.
Avoid crowds wherever pos
sible. especially during the
months ahead when colds are
common.
Get plenty of rest and avoid
becoming overtired.
Dress according to the weather
