COUNCIL OF BISHOPS
Christians today are called
upon to stand side by side
with the exploited and op
pressed in every situation
and to give sueh aid relief as
their resources will permit.
The predominantly Mexican
American clothing workers
in the F'arah Manufacturing
Company plants in El Paso.
Texas and other points in the
Southwest have appealed to
all persons of goodwill to
support their efforts to ob
tain the legitimate protee
lions which a union of their
own choosing would afford
them.
He it
Reveri-ml Thomas I,. Slrayhand. Minister
therefore
resolved
that the Council of Bishops of
the AME Church now in ses
sion assembled go on record
as supporting the legitimate
aspirations of these workers
for the protection of a union
of their own choosing.
We further call upon our
mem bers, churches, their
congregations and leaders to
assist by interview and con
ference and in such other
ways as may be possible to
enlist the sup|*ort of stores
currently merchandising the
F'arah products to lend their
influence to these efforts.
And that we urge all of our
members to avoid shopping
at such stores until they
desist from selling F'arah
products.
II.I. Bearden
President of the
Council of Bishops
NAACP
Whereas employees of the
F'arah Company, manufac
turers of F'arah Slacks, El
Paso. Texas, a substantial
number of whom are Mexican
American citizen s, have
chosen Amalgamated Cloth
ing Workers of America as
their bargaining agent, and
the National luibor Kelations
ftoard has certified it ar
cordingly,
Whereas these employees
are seeking decent wages,
hours and working rondi
tions.
Whereas the F'arah Coin
pany refuses to recognize the
employees' bargaining agent,
Be it
therefore
resolved
that the National Association
for the Advancem ent of
Colored People go on record
as condemning the refusal to
recognize the employees' bar
gaining agent and the efforts
of employees to improve
working conditions and wage
levels.
Be it further resolved that
branches of the Association
communicate with local retail
outlets sleeking Farah pro
ducts and register their deep
concern lor the plight of em
ployees of F'arah company.

couver Avenue First Baptist Church.
