To Save Jobs Os
Negro Firemen
BIRMINGHAM. Ala. _ The
fifth annual national conference
of the Provisional Committee to
Organize Colored Loco mo 1 1 v e
Firemen was held here last week
under the auspices of the Broth
erhood of Sleeping Car Porters
with delegates in attendance
from every Southern railroad.
The conference resolved to
maintain the jobs now held by
Negro firemen and other Ne
groes now employed in the
operating crafts of the rail
roads: to safeguard their se
curity; and keep the door of
employment open to Negro
workers in the railroad indus
try.
Presided over by A. Phillip
Randolph. BSCP president, and
chairman of the Provisional
Committee, the conference heard
speeches and reports by Milton
P. Webster. BSCP vice presi
dent. B F. McLaurin. T. T. Pat
'orson, Zcttler Clay, and by the
attorneys who are prosecuting
cases in defense of Negro rail
road workers: T. W Johnson,
Thurman L. Dodson and Sam
uel H. Gellman.
Randolph told the delegates
that the worldwide struggle be
tween Western democracy and
portanee to Negro railroad work
totalitarianism was of great im
ers, and they must not be de
luded by the "Alice in Wonder
land promises’’ of the support
ers of Soviet totalitarianism.
