IN REPORT MEETING HELD IN SEPTEMBER Find.ngs Shew Steady Decline Negro Workers „ In Upper Brackets DENIES THAT OPPOSED TO MENT OF NECORES Washington, Dec. 1 <ANPi quit discriminating, in effect, what the Fair Employment tice committee has said to railroad carriers and seven uii- ions as a result of its findings based upon evidence presented at the hearings held here Sept, 15 to 18 into complaints of dis- crimination in employment pol- icies and practices. Notices lo l lu cauit ‘ ind th unions were sent out two ) weeks ago with requests that | the' groups report to the mittee within on 30 Hone days r\r\ on steps taken to comply with the tive. Meanwhile, it is understood, the New York Central system and the Pennsylvania railroad have show neven more of a dis-' position to settle their differ- ences with the committee. Doubt was expressed, however, that the southern lines would do any thing independently. A forma- la for joint action was said to be under consideration in some quarters. j In its findings, the FEPC ed as unfair the policies of certain railroad unions which, it said, • discriminate against Nf- groes, because of race, in regard to membership, thus rendering it impossible (for said Negroes) to have any adequate voice w representation with respect to grievances and the negotiation of agreements affecting working conditions, employment policy, practices and opportunities. In each case the union was told to “cease and desist.” The unions cited were the Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire- men and Enginemen; Broth- erhood of Railroad Trainmen- Order of Railway Conductors; Erotherhood of Railway Car- men of Amer ica; Brotherhood Locomotive Engineers; Inter- national Association of Machin ists and the International Brotherhood of Boilermakers, Iron Shipbuilders and Helpers of America. None of the un- ions put in an official appear- ance at the hearings. j The committee, in its findings took a hefty blow at the south- conference agreement between the Brotherhood of Lo- comotive comotive Firemen Firemen and and Engine- Engine- men and 10 railroads.
