it will be a partial or final judg

NEGROES SHOl'LD JOIN
THE CIO
Karen Merely, moving picture
actress, told members of the CIO
Tobacco Workers Oragnizing Com
m/ttee Wednesday night at 1-1
Calhoun-- Street that. every effort
should be made especially in time.of
emergency to tap the talents
of Jabpr.-.
y sttess this tapping of laboi
btedapse." labor has much to offci
the ^country. This cm best be ac
odrhplished through .labor-manage-?men.t
comtnittees-and the elimina?
lipri .-of discriminatory?piaiaico-stdSjrard
Negro workers such a s
now'exist in the American Cigai
plaht. There is no telling what
talents can be unearted. Certainly
ive. need every bit of talent available,
now that we are in the
nardst of a terrible war," she as.
aerted. .
She commented that tobaccC
workers should be vitally inter1
: n iV\u tinirtrt tyy a Vf> ih on t.
"Some of my friends in Holly,
wood who make more money than
the president of the Vnited States
feel that they mted the protection
a union offers. Surely workers
i>n Charleston, some of them
making: only 37 cents an hour
need this protection."
Before the meeting Miss Morely
helped distribute CIO leaflets
to the workers at the American
XlgaF factory.
Mr. McCrea said that the meeting
and one in a series of meetings
to held every Wednesday
night as a part of the CIO cam
j>aign in the cigar factory t o
bring a majority of the workers
into the union so that a laboi
board election can be held ir. the
plant.
