State Board Against Discrimination: Order To Hire As An Authorized Remedy, Anon
State Board Against Discrimination: Order To Hire As An Authorized Remedy, Anon
Washington Law Review
The Washington State Board Against Discrimination processed a complaint filed by Mrs. Geraldine Arnett charging defendant hospital with refusing to accept her application for employment as tray girl because of her Negro race. Investigation by the board substantiated Mrs. Arnett's charge of racial discrimination, but informal negotiation between the board and defendant failed to yield a satisfactory solution. The board then held a formal hearing, found defendant in violation of the Law Against Discrimination, and ordered it to accept Mrs. Arnett's application and offer her employment in the first vacant position for tray girl, providing she met the standard qualification …
A Critique Of "The Constitution And Job Discrimination", Jerre S. Williams
A Critique Of "The Constitution And Job Discrimination", Jerre S. Williams
Washington Law Review
Let this comment on Dean Countryman's article begin with a statement of those portions of his analysis with which the writer is in complete agreement. First, as a matter of general constitutional approach, I agree with his opposition to the assertion that there are ascertainable "neutral principles" of constitutional law. It seems inescapable to me that neutrality or lack thereof is in the eye of the beholder.
The Constitution And Job Discrimination, Vern Countryman
The Constitution And Job Discrimination, Vern Countryman
Washington Law Review
I should perhaps state the assumptions from which my discussion proceeds. I view discrimination on the basis of race, color, national origin or creed as an intolerable practice and a mockery of our national aspirations whether it occurs in the field of employment or elsewhere. The continuation of such practices more than 100 years after the Emanicipation Proclamation seems to me a national disgrace whose elimination cannot longer await the general enlightenment of all parts of the nation. The full powers of government should be brought to bear against such discriminatory practices. And in my search for the most effective …

Critique On "The Constitution And Job Discrimination", William R. Ming, Jr.
Washington Law Review
The Countryman basic thesis is sound. His analysis of the obligations of the several states is intriguing. But the history and nature of the problem of discrimination against Negroes in employment suggest that more be said of law and legal institutions in this area.
Racial Minority Housing In Washington, Arval A. Morris, Daniel B. Ritter
Racial Minority Housing In Washington, Arval A. Morris, Daniel B. Ritter
Washington Law Review
O'Meara v. Washington State Bd. Against Discrimination\ called upon the Washington Supreme Court to pass for the first time on the constitutionality of Washington's Anti-Discrimination Statute. The court invalidated the portion applicable to housing. This comment discusses the social and legal contexts in which the case was decided, the disposition of the case at the trial and appellate levels, and the merit of some alternative measures for preventing discrimination in housing.

The Law Against Discrimination In Employment, Frank P. Helsell
The Law Against Discrimination In Employment, Frank P. Helsell
Washington Law Review
During its 1949 session, the legislature of the state of Washington enacted Chapter 183, a law known as "The Law against Discrimination in Employment." That law follows in a general way the form and the substance of the New York law entitled, "Law against Discrimination," enacted in 1945, but the authors of the Washington Act adopted some of the provisions of the Connecticut Act relating to procedure. Note will be taken of differences between the Washington law and the law of other states having similar legislation. The Washington law declares that practices of discrimnation because of race, creed, color, or …
Judicial Enforcement Of Restrictive Covenants In The United States, Yi-Seng Kiang
Judicial Enforcement Of Restrictive Covenants In The United States, Yi-Seng Kiang
Washington Law Review
On May 3, 1948 the Supreme Court of the United States handed down two decisions prohibiting judicial enforcement of racial restrictive covenants on real property. It has been a peculiar feature of American life that residential segregation of designated minority groups from certain prescribed areas is a common practice in all major cities. This policy of racial discrimination at first was enforced by municipal ordinance, beginmng with that of Baltimore in 1910, and quickly followed by Atlanta, Richmond, Louisville, and other cities, until it was held unconstitutional by the Supreme Court in 1917. Thereafter restrictive covenants became the principal weapon …
