Abstract
Description
Riesel explains the AF ABC speech and Carlough's calls for RN to fire AF, notes that Carlough's sheetmetal workers union has 307 Blacks in its full membership of 140,000, and notes that AF's speech stating that they were at "the end of the era of union dominance of the construction industry" did not apply to unions like the painters or the plumbers, which were integrating. The column overall is favorable to AF, and states that Hodgson and RN appear to be backing him.
