If I had never seen him. I would certainly want to see his picture. Here is another unlawful practice: Inquiry whether an applicant for employment is a naturalized or nativeborn citizen. the date when the applicant acquired citizenship. whether the applicants parents or spouse are naturalized or nativeborn citizens of the United States. the date when such parents or spouse acquired citizenship. You cannot inquire into those questions under this FEPC law in New York. Here is another unlawful practice: Requirement that an applicant for employment produce his naturalization papers or first papers. He may lie to you and tell you that he is a naturalized citizen. but you cannot ask to see his papers. Another unlawful practice in New York is toInquire into the lineage of an applicant for employment. his ancestry. or national origin. You remember a few years ago the Dallas News inserted an advertisement for a colored janitor. and this FEPC outfit down the street. ordered them to take it out. said it was an unlawful practice.
