NEGRO LABORERS
ADMITTED TO UNION
(By Associated Negro Press.)
Asheville, N. C., Sept. 3.—Follow
ing protests entered by many of the i
extreme southern delegates, the south
ern labor congress in session here ex
pected it to pass by unanimous vote
their resolution to admit the Negrfr
laborer into the union as an equal
brother craftsman.
The resolution, introduced by J. L.
i Shaver of Salisbury, N. C., is to the
effect that Negroes will be organized,
wherever possible and, when they have
large numbers in separate unions,
but to be taken in with the whites
when the Colored men are small in
I numbers.
It is not how much you earn, but
i how much you save which counts.
