114.     Green v. Samuelson, 168 Md. 421, 429 (1935). In New Negro Alliance v. Sanitary

Grocery Co., 92 F. 2d 510 (D.C. Cir. 1937), the D. C. Circuit upheld an injunction of a
similar protest in the District of Columbia on the authority of Green. The protest in the
District of Columbia was led by the mother of William Hastie, who later became a Judge
of the Third Circuit Court of Appeals.   This decision was reversed by the Supreme Court
in New Negro Alliance v. Sanitary Grocery Co., 303 U.S. 552 (1938), The Supreme -
Court held that picketing to secure employment for blacks was a labor dispute for
purposes of the Norris LaGuardia Act of 1932 which prohibited federal courts from
issuing an injunction against picketing in a labor dispute. This decision did not effect the
power of state courts to issue injunctions, however. The protest movement for black
employment in Maryland abated as job opportunities opened during the military buildup
for World War II, although the opening of jobs was abetted by the action of the leaders of
the black community.

119.     30 F. Supp. 245 (1939). Mills' first suit was dismissed on the grounds that he failed to
sue the proper party. In Mills v. Lowndes, 26 F. Supp. 792 (1939), Mills sued the
Governor and other state authorities to invalidate the state law which set minimum
teachers salaries at different levels based on race. The Court dismissed the suit on the
grounds that the specific salary Mills received was determined by the county, and did not
depend on minimums established by the state.
