Summary
The September 13, 1956, morning session, of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters 31st Anniversary Meeting, Charles W. Burton begins with an invocation followed by T. D. McNeal and M. P. Webster reading the report of the Committee of the Constitution and Resolutions. Forty new resolutions are read which stimulate discussion and comments from A. Philip Randolph, Webster, McNeal and delegates. Other recommendations are the establishment of a forty-hour work week, paid holidays, and the appointment of a Canadian to the International Executives' Board. Randolph expresses opposition to the last proposal and it is then voted on. Webster talks about the solidity of the Brotherhood's contract and H. E. Jones makes comments about various districts losing business. The meeting is adjourned.
