Court May Acf
On Negro Firemen
Washington - (LTD - The Su
preme Court may act today
on a complaint by Negro loco
motive firemen that they are
denied membership in the rail
road union which represents
them.
The court meets to hand
down opinions and announce
cases it has accepted for re
view.
The Negro firemen, who
started their lawsuit in Cleve
land, lost in two lower courts.
They challenged a provision
in the constitution of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive
Firemen which limits the or
ganization to white member
ship. , The Supreme Court has
ruled several times that the
railroad brotherhoods must
represent both races without
discrimination. But it has not
taken up the membership
issue specifically.
The firemen told the high
court that the discrimination
and hostility of their union
has continued right down to
the present day.
