...Security. A few unions deserve high marks for fighting racism. The United Auto Workers and the United Packinghouse Workers have revoked the charters of some locals rather than compromise on discrimination. Top officers of the Transport Workers and the American Federation of Teachers have repeatedly pressed their locals to end bias. Many other union leaders insist that they must move slowly or be voted out of office by white members who consider the Negro's rise a threat to their own status and security.

After a lengthy legal battle, five New Jersey locals of the International Association of Bridge, Structural and Ornamental Iron Workers agreed for the first time in 1966 to admit Negroes into apprenticeship training.
