King St. Station 'Red Caps' Now Are Filipinos

Japanese "red-cap" porters at the King Street Station today were replaced by Filipinos who have undergone a two-week training course to learn their duties, it was announced by F.E. Bisbee, station superintendent.

The station is operated jointly by the Great Northern and Northern Pacific Railroads.

Bisbee said the new red caps will wear large identification buttons reading "Filipino."

The Great Northern Railroad also announced that Japanese red caps at the Vancouver, B.C., station have been replaced by white Canadian citizens.

The Union Station recently replaced its Japanese red caps with Negroes.
