Union Ft New York," just published by Columbia University Press. Dr. Franklin's study which puts special emphasis on the NRA and post-NRA periods, indicates that some progress F being ma e and that exclusion, from some labor unions and limitations On mc^nbiirL ship in others is generally "being r removed. This, it is assented, has' removed the niajwr cau?c for strike breaking activity among Negroes so that they are no* longer "the weak union members who refused to walk out with their fellow unionist." On the contrary, they are loyal union members, the new trend in Negro strike being shown by the difference in their actions during and immediately . following the NRA period as com-, pared with previous years. Tho Negro worker is still only a small percentage of the organized labor movement in Manhattan, however, Negro labor unionists cimprising only 9.3 percent of union membership. Dr. Franklin arrived at this figuro after a study of the membership of 82 per cent of the unions of .Manhattan, having: a total membership of 424,71)4 in 11)35. Oil these. 3i>.574 were Negroes. The proportion of Ndgro to white union members hrus increased considerably, however; since 11)28. Iii that year Negroes formed only 3.8 percent of organized workers in Manhatten. In transportation and communication and in personal and domestic service, Negroes " from a larger part of the organized groups than in other fields,.28.8per cent of the membership in the former being Negro and 22.3 per cent of the latter.The author of thd study finds an improvements in that "Negro workers have come to understand more, fully the principles and methods of trade unionism, while white workers have come to a better understanding of Negroes as workers. Together they are participating in the priviliges and responsibilities of union membership' and are fighting to gain and maintain desirable standards of employment." In investigating the position of the Negro labor unionist in ManI A A 11. . Al _.'il 1 t. nauan, uie auinor nauieri-u nuicn of his data front interviews with union officials, members and other people connected with organized labor, and by attending labor conferences, union meetings and lectures. He aho examined the records of local unions when possible. ' Besi <?s the survey o? the current situation, Dir Franklin devotes part "of his volume to a comprehensive review of Negro labor unionism in Manhattan prior to the NRA period, going back to colonial times. Although confined to Manhattan the study b valid for all parts .of the United Sates, according to the author, who declares . that "the - labor union situation in Manhattana as it effects Negroes is similar to |hat in the Unie>U-States. as a whole." * TW*" (jouuimm: circuit nmws Rev.
