(CIVIL RIGHTS.) CARTER, ROBERT LEE AND THURGOOD MARSHALL. Complaint. Discrimination Against Negro Employees in the Oil Refining Industry. 19 mimeographed long legal folio pages, stapled at the top. Signed in type by Robert L. Carter and Thurgood Marshall. New York, circa 1956
The brief filed before the President's Committee on Government Contracts by Robert L Carter and Thurgood Marshall. Both worked as top counsel for the NAACP Legal Defense. This case involved discrimination in the oil refining industry especially in Texas, Arkansas and Louisiana. Oil companies, Like Lion, would give Negro workers lower pay for doing the same job as their white counterpart by simply changing the name of the position from "helper" to "laborer." This was a common practice in many industries. A simple change in the definition of one's job would change the salary significantly.
