The distribution of these responses was as follows: Type of Difficulty, Per cent of Responses Applicants not qualified, 32.9 Objection of customers, 21.0 Objection of employees, 21.0 Objection of the union, 1.4 Other problems. 6.6 No problems, 17.1 These responses are partly based upon what employers expect to happen with the use of Negro workers, and partly upon some types of experience which seem to indicate possible difficulties.
