Court Rules On Rail Union Race
The Supreme Court upheld a lower court ruling that a rail union may not exclude Negroes from membership but must protect all workers affected by its contracts. The decision struck down an agreement between the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen Independent and 13 southeastern railroads intended to push Black firemen out of railway jobs. The Court also reviews alimony questions in New York separations and cases involving foremen and the Taft Hartley Act. It ordered hearings on jury exclusion in Winston Salem in 1946.
