Letter to Alonso. S. Perales, from Mrs. Eloisa Galan that iterates the Del Rio Ration Board (Civil Service Department) need Spanish speaking clerks to assist those who do not speak English from nearby Spanish speaking communities. She states that there are people in the department who are "prejudice and narrow minded”. She requests Alonso S. Perales to contact Mr. Ben Foster, former United States Attorney at San Antonio to in turn contact C. Fenner Roth, District Administrative Officer of the OPA to provide Spanish speaking clerks. Mrs. Galan also references that Mexican American soldiers, fighting for the United States who are also being discriminated against, and how the Ration Board food clerks are treating the families of these soldiers “shabbily”. She believes that help from Badomer Puig, Commanding Office of the 458th and Mrs. Dignam of the Ration Board can help by employing wives of the Mexican American soldiers in the Telephone Office and the Ration Board.

A written representation of a document.
P.O.Box 549,
Del Rio, Texas.
March 11, 1944.
Hon. Alonso Perales,
714 Gunter Bldg.,
San Antonio, Texas.
Dear Sir:
I hate to bother you and impose on you but ever since the Ration Board was established in Del Rio there has been a great need of Latin American employees (U.S. citizens under Civil Service) in the Ration Board, both in the Gasoline and Food Departments. The majority of our Del Rio inhabitants are Spanish-speaking adults who do not understand one word in English, and the people from Villa Acuna who get ration cards and shoe stamps in this Ration Board do not understand English.
The Chief Clerk of the Ration Board is a Mrs. Kathryn Richmond, and I hate to say it but she is the most prejudiced narrow-minded person I have ever seen. The people are simply afraid of her.
I have written my former employer, Mr. Ben F. Foster, former United States Attorney of San Antonio, under this date, that for God's sake to lease ask Mr. C. Fenner Roth, District Administrative Officer, of the OPA in San Antonio to give us Spanish-speaking clerks. Of the four employees there, three do not speak one word of English, and Mrs. Richmond very little if any at all. She does not understand that under Civil Service, Federal employees are required to be courteous and polite regardless of the race, nationality or station in life of the customers of the Ration Board.
Will you please be so kind as to phone Mr. Foster and assure him that anything that he does in behalf of our Latin American people will be greatly appreciated?
I do not know whether you have heard or not-well, anyway, in spite of "TIME MAGAZINE'S" timely report of February 7th in regard to Texans and our Mexican people, last week a scene [partially handwritten] occurred in Del Rio:
A Mexican soldier, member of the United States Armed forces was passing through Del Rio on a train. He got off the train during a few minutes' stopand started to talk with an M.P. Two Del Rio border patrolmen, one a Mr. F.S. Centilli passed the soldier, and upon noticing that the soldier had medals on his breast asked him: "Say, Mexican how did you get those medals?" stating it with contempt. The boy did not pay attention to him but continued to talk to the M.P. Nevertheless, Centilli
#2
returned and continued to pick on the soldier. Finally, the soldier got angered and said: "This is how I obtained my medals" and he socked Centilli on the jaw. At that moment the other border patrol men started to get out his pistol and was going kill our Mexican soldier of the U.S. armed forces. Then the Anglo-American M.P. made and forced the border patrol man to desist from killing our soldier.
Mexican employees of the round house as well as a Misses De Leon, prominent Del Rio young ladies witnessed it.
Is this what our Mexican boys are fighting for? No, Mr. Perales, it is sad to state and every day more and more married men with children of our nationality are being drawn into the armed forces.
Here on the home front their families are treated shabbily by the Ration Board food clerks.
I really believe that it is about time that some-thing be done.
There is a Lieutenant by the name of Baldomero Puig, commanding officer of the 458th Squadron in Del Rio, and he is from Laredo. I sincerely believe that if his help is obtained in instilling soldiers' wives who are employed in the down town Del Rio both in the telephone office as operat [scratched word] and one in the Ration Board by the name of Mrs. Dignam and make them understand that our Mexican people have stood a lot of abuse in the past, but if they do not desist something is going to happen. Does World War III have to start in this section of the country? It looks like it will be from the attitude of the prejudiced Anglo-American people of this section, not all of them but a good many of them.
Respectfully,
Eloisa Galan [Handwritten - Signature]
P.S. It is sad to pass this information on to you. I being a Federal employee, but I am a citizen, of Mexican nationality, and if we do not all unite now, we never wll.
EG.

Tengo el gusto de acompañarle lista conteniendo el nombre de algunas colonias donde está prohibida la venta de propiendades a Mexicanos, o limi-tada [limitada] la venta a personas de la raza caucásica, con la intención de eliminar también a los miembros de nuestra raza. Me dice el Sr. Benavides de la Alamo Abstract & Title Company, que él sabe de otras colonias como las aquí mencionadas en esta lista, que no tuvo tiempo de incluirlas, pero que son en gran número.
Aquí en San Antonio existen hombres destacados en Bienes Raices que debieran definir su acti-tud [actitud] respecto de esta segregación: Mr. H. O Thorman, Mr. L.E. Fite, Mr. C. M. Furr, Arthur E. Biard, Mr. N.S. Dickinson, Mr. George A. French and Henry A. Robards cuyas direcciones las encontrará usted en la pagina amarilla del Directorio de la ciudad, numero 132 (Real Estate)

An account of the resource
Alonso S. Perales, one of the greatest Latino civil rights leaders ever, was one of the first Latino public intellectuals to master the use of the media in pioneering efforts to track and report on discrimination. Over the course of forty years of activism, during the 1920s to 1960, Perales wrote a weekly column in San Antonio’s La Prensa newspaper, the periodical with the greatest and most extensive circulation; had a radio program; published books; and maintained an unheard of level of correspondence, writing daily as many as ten letters to the authorities, civil rights activists and just everyday folk. One campaign he maintained over many years was his use of the periodicals and radio program to invite victims and witnesses of discrimination to document the cases in letter form and send them to him at his San Antonio law office. He would abstract these testimonies in his newspaper columns and radio programs and use them as evidence to demand corrective action and policy changes from government at every level. In the Alonso S. Perales archive hundreds of these letters have been preserved; many of them were written by hand by working-class people who were most likely to suffer the indignities and denial of services because they were Mexicans or Latinos. Because La Prensa and Perales’ network was so broad, the letters came not only from throughout Texas and the Southwest but from as far north as North Dakota and east as the Carolinas. The record is diverse in documenting everything from barbers refusing to cut hair to schools that would not allow Mexican families to register their children. The Perales collection of correspondence is one of the very few documentary sources that precisely date, locate and describe the instances of segregation, violence and racism experienced by Latinos over a long period of time: names are named, addresses noted and alleged crimes publicized; in most cases, however, these acts were committed with impunity, but the informal history and conscience of la raza was recording them. And now, the researchers of posterity can study and reference them in writing a truer history of the United States, and communities can become aware of these acts in developing laws and policy.
Alonso S. Perales, uno de los líderes latinos más importantes de derechos civiles, fue uno de los primeros intelectuales públicos en dominar el uso de los medios de comunicación y pionero en dedicar esfuerzos a rastrear y denunciar instancias de discriminación. A lo largo de cuarenta años de activismo, durante las décadas de 1920 hasta 1960, Perales escribió columnas semanales en el periódico La Prensa de San Antonio, el diario con la mayor y más extensa circulación de ese período; además tuvo un programa de radio; publicó libros; y mantuvo una extensa correspondencia, escribiendo hasta diez cartas diarias dirigidas a autoridades, activistas de derechos civiles y gente en general. Perales impulsó una campaña, que mantuvo durante muchos años, donde a través de publicaciones en periódicos y su programa de radio invitaba a las víctimas y testigos de actos de discriminación a documentar estos casos en forma de cartas y a enviárselas a su despacho de abogados de San Antonio, Texas. Perales resumía estos testimonios en sus columnas periodísticas y programas de radio y los utilizaba como prueba para exigir medidas correctivas y cambios de política al gobierno a todo nivel. En el archivo de Alonso S. Perales se conservan cientos de estas cartas; muchas de ellas escritas a mano provenientes en su mayoría de la clase trabajadora que tenía más probabilidades de sufrir humillaciones y negación de servicios por ser mexicanos o latinos.
Como la red de La Prensa y de Perales eran tan amplias, las cartas vinieron no solo desde Texas y del suroeste sino también desde lugares tan al norte como Dakota del Norte y del este como Carolina del Sur y Carolina del Norte. El material es variado y documenta desde barberos que se negaban a cortar el pelo hasta escuelas que no permitían a las familias mexicanas matricular a sus hijos. La colección de correspondencia de Perales es una de las escasas fuentes documentales que datan, localizan y describen con precisión los casos de segregación, violencia y racismo sufridos por los latinos durante un largo periodo de tiempo: se citan nombres, se anotan direcciones y se publicitan presuntos delitos; en la mayoría de los casos, sin embargo, estos actos se cometían con impunidad, pero la historia informal y la conciencia de la raza los registraban. Y ahora, los investigadores de la posteridad pueden estudiarlos y hacer referencia a ellos al escribir una historia más verdadera de Estados Unidos, y las comunidades pueden tomar conciencia de estos actos al momento de elaborar leyes y políticas.
