Hitting at Powell’s Junket to Europe the Look article reports: Not Simple "Powell has charged that con­ gressional attacks upon him are basically anti-Negro. It is not quite as simple as that. Much of the anti-Powell sentiment in the Capitol springs from a mixture of envy, political conservatism and just plain partisan politics. But perhaps the biggest ingre­ dient is hypocrisy. For, while many of Powell’s antics have been deplorable, he Is only doing blatantly what many another con­ gressman does quietly.

Otto Passman (D.,La.), who made a trip around the world and another to Europe at a total cost of $4,556. “Similarly, other congressional friends and relatives go off on junkets. Last year, Philip Pat­ man, a college student who is a cousin of Rep. Wright Patman (D. Texas), went on a eeven-na­ tion tour for the Joint Economic Committee, which Patman once headed. Thomas H. Boggs, son of House Majority Whip Hale Boggs (D., La.)., also went. They were described as consultants. "Nepotism didn’t begin with Adam. Like Powell, a number of representatives have their wives or other relatives on their pay rolls. Representative Boggs em ploys his wife at $7,800 annually, Rep Richard Bolling (D., Mo.) pays his wife $9,420. Although the wife of Rep. W. Donlon Edwards (D., Calif.) gets paid by the Cali­ fornia insurance firm he heads, she receives $924 a month as his administrative assistant. Rep. Elizabeth Kee (D. W.Va.) pays her son James $15,350 annually, and Rep. George Meader (R., Mich.) pays his daughter $2,000 annually for part-time work. While grumbling about Mrs. Pow ell’s salary continues, a real crackdown on congressional hir­ ing of kin seems as remote as ever. “The often audacious behaviorof Adam Powell has focused atten­ tion on some of Congress's long standing, if irresponsible tradi­ tions. In the words of one who knows him well: “Powell regards himself as a joke on the world at large. He wrings it and twists it and the louder it squawks, the more he enjoys it!’ At the moment, Adam Powell is enjoy- in himsef as never before." (Continued from Page One) catch up to the rear end of American democratic creeds in race relations. Its apartheid is codified in city ordinances; Its city hall has water fountains la­ beled “white and “colored”; its state liquor stores have separate entrances for whites and Negroes with a chain dividing the store into racial halves. Negro boot­ blacks at downtown stands can’t shine a Negro’s shoes. This is the scabrous crust of racial dementia that has built up and hardened over the gen­ erations of intimidation, police brutality, lynching, fear, yorel morality and a political exped ency that had no need to acco­ modate a disfranchised Negro. But some hardy seeds of changes were coincidentally and Inadvertently sown with the bur­ geoning of the region's first ore diggings and its iron and steel works; and even in the fallow ground of Deep South raqj^l in­ transigence those seedlings found quiescent beds of fertility in the unawakened consciences of men who did not particularly hate but who also did not particularly care, and in the not yet alerted common sense of a commercial- industrial community that could not at the turn of the century foresee the need of a “good im­ age" before the word of inves­ tors. The Seedling But the second half of the twen­ tieth century brought the first quickening even to that frozen ground. Revolutionary improve­ ments In communications and transportation; the unceas­ ing boom of national defense de­ mands; the competition for con­ tracts and markets; the rising level of education and purchas­ ing power among the disposses­ sed; the broadening through mil­ itary life and the new mobile society of the younger thousands- These unpredictable new condi­ tions came as sun and showers to nurture and spread the isolat­ ed spots of fertility. And the seed lings grew. The moral censure of a vastly matured nation, reflected in the decisions of the federal courts, brought to life some of the sleep­ ing consciences and the icy douche of business realism fresh­ ened the filmed eye of the cham­ ber of commerce and the monied industrial leaders who gradually learned to see that few investors, few tourists were going to drop a wad in a cky of hate. These murmurings of life and change in the uncongenial ground fought hardily against the stran­ gle weeds of custom and moral .nertia in an almost silent strug­ gle beneath the top crust of sou­ thern things-as-they-are. Then came the weeders and the gardeners. Martin Luther King, the Southern Christian Lea dership Conference, using the tools fashioned by the courts, by Christian doctrine and by the too-heavy -to-be borne - any- longer burden of downtrodden Negroes, drastically mashed the ugly crust with direct action to mid-wive the upthrust of the slender shoots of change. The Crust The crust which Is hard is also brittle. The tiny plants of racial progress and change, the tenta­ tive steps of a plantation slug­ gard peeping Into the twentieth century, thrive in the light and air despite the debris around them, the broken crust of glow- erings, forebodings, and go-slow, go-never admonishments from the “moderates.” Young southern Christians lea­ ding Birmingham’s Negroes at the request of the Latter have shown that the crust can be brok­ en, that even in the hotbed of the Confederacy, the peculiar tradi­ tions that deny the dignity of man are not sacrosanct and that even in Birmingham a Negro can sit at the same lunch counter where a white man sits without thunder bolting from the skies. They have shown that Negroes are not “satisfied” with their lot; they have shown that Negroes will stick together to boycott the places that insult them while tak­ ing their money. Mass meetings packed every night for three weeks have shown that the feel­ ing is a rising tide that grows larger as it moves. The turning out of the Hanes - Connor - Wag­ goner Neanderthals has shown that the electorate is at last con­ cerned about the city’s image in the world. The preservation of order with a minimum of violence has shown that the greatly cherished threat of popular white uprisings against changes in the racial statuo-quo is a myth that one good job of sincere policing can blow away like a dandelion in a sum­ mer breeze. “Many New York City Negro .even the most bitter op-, intellectuals are categorical in ponent of the Black Muslims their belief that the Negro fun- agrees that they have contributed to the growth in Negro racial damentally hates the white man. pride, group identification, self- They insist that this hatred respect and the conscious worth is spreading as the entrenched white men in the North resort of Negro values.

None of these estimates, however, is based on verifiable data. There are more than 18,000,000 Negroes in the country. Followers of Islam “The Muslims assert that they are faithful followers of Islam, a claim that raises some doubts among their opponents. The Mus­ lims, note, however, that Elijah Muhammed, head of the move­ ment, has made a pilgrimage to Mecca, a journey reserved for Islam's ““faithful. "The Black Muslims reject Christianity as a white man's religion Imposed on the Negroes to insure their prolonged servi­ tude and inferior status. Chris­ tianity promises rewards in the hereafter, and according to the Black Muslims, this belief is de­ signed to condition Nqgroes to accept their inferior status on this earth. But all the old - line Negro leaders insist that the Christian churches are the most powerful force in the Negro com­ munity, without which no gains can be made." Going back to the idea of Ne- “Dr. Kenneth Clark, college professor, was quoted by the Times as saying: "The Negro does not feel himself a part of this white dominated country, and there is no reason why he should concern himself with this country’s international relations.” "There is a colossal indiffer­ ence to the United States Gov­ ernment’s foreign problems,” he said. “If I were to talk to a Negro crowd about foreign af­ fairs people would say to me ‘man, what are you talking about?’” Free Guide Wine and champagne produc­ ed in New York State’s Finger Lakes Region are among the best in the world.

It is questioning the co-leader­ ship of liberal whites in the struggle against discrimin­ ation. “Moreover, it is helping destroy the stereotypes of the shiftless Negro as well as the Uncle Toms. New Heartaches “It is bringing new heartaches as Negro par­ ents find they no longer understand their children, who are filled With new ra­ cial pride. It has also brought to the surface widespread hatred for the white man.” The Times quotes one Negro leader as saying: “There is a bit of hatred in ©very Negro’s heart. The Negro would not be human if he did not resent the oppression to which he has been subjected. But this feeling would be stifled if the Negro were to receive the equal status he is entitled to as a citizen of this country.” Commenting on Malcolm X and the Black Muslim movement the Times article said: ADVERTISEMENT w AW OPEN LETTER if TO THE MEN AND WOMEN WHO WERE TAUGHT BY THE SISTERS OP THE BLESSED SACRAMENT: Dear Alumni: There are theoaande nf W* la the Metropolitan area whn were taught by three good Sletere aad se belenc to The Sisters sf The Blessed Sacrament Alum­ ni The does are I5.ee a year (lean than SOr a mnnth). payabla to the S.B.S.

Agent Tenants In the Paul Lawrence Ihinbar apartment housing pro­ ject have served a summons on Charles Salzman, agent for the new owners, requiring him to appear In Upper Manhattan Criminal Court on Thursday, Ap­ ril 25, to answer to charges of a breakdown In maintenance since the 568-apartment was taken over by the new owners last month. The summons, signed by Crim­ inal Court Justice Thomas E Rohan, alleges inadequate gar­ bage removal, no guard service, and a cut in Janitorial service in violation of the rental agree­ ment. Last week officials of the Dun­ bar Tenants Council filed papers with the Upper Manhattan Rent Administration office seeking a reduction in rents based on a decrease in services. Bd.

What does it take to make a good politician? In the words of Senator Jacob Javits, the state’s most success­ ful vote getter in a decade, the success of a good politician is that he is "one who never for­ gets a friend, a favor, or an act of conscience, even if it takes 40 years." Speaking at a testimonial din­ ner last week for Gilbert Robfn- son, an unsuccessful candidate for Congressman the" Republican ticket last year, Javits alluded to Harlem Republican leader Harold C. Burton as this type of good politician. In All Years "He is the kind of leader who makes the bulwark of our party,” Javits said. "Harold Burton has maintained a headquarters and kept interest in the party through thick and thin, In lean and fat years. "He has lived with the party in good or bad seasons and car­ ried the campaign even when the odds were heavy against him. With him it has been a way of llfe,.ahd this is the essence of politics, a devotion to public serv­ ice,” Javits said. Powell Says He's Only Free Leader Congressman Adam Clayton Powell asserted this week that he is the only Negro leader en­ tirely free of white control be­ cause he is not dependent on whites for financial support. "All my strength, all my mon­ ey comes frim Negroes," Powell declared, "and therefore I can­ not be controlled by whites.”’ Powell’s remarks were quoted in an article, “T h e Audacious World of Adam Powell,” in the current issue of Look Magazine. The controversial Congressman stated that there Is not other Neg­ ro leader or organization that does not get "substantial money." from whites and added: “I don’t need it,” "An Irritant” Powell described himself, ac­ cording to the article, as "an irritant” who "rubs and rubs until something gives.” Recently critical of the NAACP for letting whites hold positions of leadership in the organiza­ tion, Powell was asked to com­ ment on reports that many of his ancestors were white. "If I have all white blood, and I’m doing what 1 am for the 'Negro,” he told Look, "then I (deserve all the more credit!” Could Gordon’s possibly be older than London Bobby? Surprisingly enough, yes. It was in 1829 that Sir Robert Peel reorganized the London Metropolitan Police,who promptly became known as "Peelers" or "Bobbies". But this was sixty years after Alexander Gordon had introduced his remarkable gin to Lon­ don and given it bis name. Happily, the Gordon’s you drink today is based on that original 1769 formula. That explains its unique dryness and delicate flavour. Explains, too, why Gordon’s is the biggest selling gin in Eng­ land, America, the world.

What Happened To The Naming Of Williams To Democratic Post? By JAMES BOOKER Did Democratic State Chair­ man William McKeon back down on naming Franklin H. Wiliams, top Peace Corps aide., to a key post with the Democratic State Committee because of local and upstate racial protests? This was the question being asked in political circles this week as rumors began flying that a white upstate Democratic- leader would soon be named to the $20,000-«-year post of Deputy Director and Executive Secre­ tary of the soon-to-be-formed De ocratlc State Advisory Commit­ tee. Four weeks ago the Amster­ dam News learned from highly authorative sources that Williams with top Democratic national backing, had flown to New York and was interviewed in McKeon's offices at the State Committee. McKeon was highly impressed and the two shook hands and Wil­ liams agreed to leave the Peace Corps and take what would have been an historic post for a Negro. Backed Him Manhattan Borough President Edward R. Dudley. J. Raymond Jones, and other key Democrats had supported Williams. Since then, however, McKeon has reportedly been subjected to bitter pressures from many pol­ itical areas, including some up­ state Democrats, and some news­ papers. Representative Adam Clayton Powell and some Negro legislators also opposed Williams Tuesday during all-day elimina­ tions at the Waldrof-Astoria. Five Negro girD are among the semi-finalists from which six finalists will be chosen for the coveted crown.

Up in Air McKeon, who has been out of town, had no comment on the whole situation, but a spokes­ man told the Amsterdam News that the whole situation is “up in the air and there is nothing definite on Williams or the Job." Meanwhile, McKeon this week named a group of leading Demo­ cratic officials to a screening committee which wiU select the members of the advisory comm­ ittee within the next few weeks.

McAdams Photos) Hospital Bill Signed By Rocky By MALCOLM NASH Is the Protestant Council of New York unwilling to air charg­ es of alleged racial discrimina­ tion in the filling of Protestant chaplaacy vacancies in city hospitals and institutions? The Rev. Dr. Dan M. Potter, executive director of the coun­ cil, against which the charge of bias was made by the Interde­ nominational Ministers Meeting of Greater New York and Vicin­ ity, could not be reached for comment. His secretary said Monday that he was "out of town’’ and would be "out” again Tuesday. But he apparently has made no move to tell Deputy Mayor Ed ward F. Cavanagh Jr. when — and where — he will meet with Cavanagh and Negro officials of the Interdenominational Minis­ ters Meeting to discuss the lat­ ter’s charges of bias. To Set Date This was suggested in a letter Cavanagh sent to the Interde­ nominational Ministers Meeting last April 10 in which Cavanagh indicated that he had asked Dr Potter to set a date to meet with him and the Interdenominational Ministers to look into the charg es.

He was referring to the results of an advance meeting held in Yankee Stadium last Saturday with an attendance of 8,972 from the metropolitan New York and New Jersey area. Approximately 100 attended from the Bradhurst Congregation. According to Mr. Powers, the purpose of the meeting was to outline requirements necessary to care for the many visitors. “Foremost is the need for ad­ equate rooming accommodations,* Powers said.

Queens Vacancy The charge grew out of the ap­ pointment by the Protestant Committee on City Chaplaincies of a white minister to the chap­ laincy vacancy at City Hospital, Queens. The committee had act­ ed on the recommendation of the Queens Federation of Churches, a division of the Protestant Coun­ cil. The chaplaincy vacancy at the Queens hospital had been creat­ ed by the death of the Rev. Jos­ eph C. Hill, last Jan. 23, a Negro minister who previously was ap­ pointed by the Interdenomina­ tional Ministers Meeting The Interdenominational Min­ ister* Meeting had created the extra Protestant chaplaincy vac ancy (before Rev. Hill's death), with the help of Mayor Wagner, to broaden the Protestant racial representation at the hospital. _ The Negro ministers contend that the Protestant Council had never appointed a Negro clergy­ man to any chaplaincy vacan cies.

"While these figures In- dicate progress, the dropout pro­ blem is still critical and we have a long way to go.” York City have declined more than two per cent per year — or twice the national average — since Mayor Robert F. Wagner launched the City’s Stay-In-School educational program in the fall of i960. „ This was revea’ed by Dr. Theo­ dore H. Lang, chairman of the City’s Inter-Agency Stay-In-School Committee' in the Committee's newsletter distributed today to civic, business, fraternal, educa­ tional. religious and other lead­ ers. Encouraged "We are encouraged by this significant decline in New York City’s school dropout rate due to the work of the Board of Educa­ tion, the N.Y.C. Youth Board, the Mayor’s Task Force on Youth an Work, the N.Y.C. Stay-in-School Committee, as well as other agen cies and civic groups,” Dr. Lang These City dropout statistics are based on figures from New York City’s Board of Education and the U. S. Department of Lab­ or's Bureau of Labor Statistics. The U .S. decline in dropouts have averaged only one per cent in the last 10 years. Third Time The Stay-In-School newsletter was released as Mayor Wagner announced he was launching the City’s third annual all-out com­ munity educational campaign to encourage students to stay in school and graduate. In asking his Inter-Agency Stny-In-Scbool committee to move ahead on its 1963 action program to combat the city's — and the nation’s — dropout problem, May or Wagner declared: "Let us not be satisfied to lead the nation at the start of 1963. Let us rather be determined to ’ -i"i t :e nrtlon at the end of 1963. and every year thereafter until this problem has been eliminat­ ed."

School Superintendent A case which may prove cruc­ ial to the NAACP’s entire legal effort to combat school segrega­ tion outside of the South has been filed against the Manhasset. L.I. School Board and Dr. Ray­ mond CoUins, Superintendent of Schools. The suit charges them with operating and maintaining racial­ ly segregated schools. The NAACP will ask the court to require the School Board to eliminate the existing racial unbalance in the schools, no matter what the cause. Manhasset is a small upper middle-class community on Long Island. There are three elemen­ tary schools, two of which have no Negro children and have ap­ proximately 500 students each. The third has 175 students, 93 per cent Negro. There is one junior high school and one senior high school. Different The issue in this caae differs from New Rochelle where the charge was gerrymandered school districts. The school zones in Manhasset have not been changed in the past ten years, but school authorities have done nothing to eradicate growing segregation in fact, but have aided in the con­ tainment of Negro school chil­ dren. « Attorneys for the NAACP will be General Counsel Robert L.

Ml "Ip South" Sometimes the best way to really study a man is to take a good look at him when he does not know you are looking. That’s what happened to GOP Congressman Steven B. Derounian and the voters who elected him in Nassau County last week. Congressman Derounian, who could be defeated by the minority group vote in Nassau, took himself a junket down to Columbia, South Carolina last week and according to all reports, he out did the Dixiecrats when it came to denouncing “northern agitators’’ who go south and “stir up” the status quo in race relations. The Nassau County Congressman was quoted as wooing Dixiecrat votes for the Republican party by saying that “agitators from the North ought to be kept out of the South.” Well, it just goes to show you what some people will do when they get behind closed doors—or travel 500 miles from home, where they feel the folks back home aren’t looking. We’d just like to remind Congressman Derounian that many of the very people whom he referred to as “northern agitators who should be kept out of the South” are the sons and daughters of the people who helped to send him South to Congress from Nassau County. It would probably serve Mr. Derounian right if the voters of Nassau County took him seriously literally and voted to keep all Northern agitators out of the South—including South Carolina AND Wash­ ington. D.C.—which happens to be very much South of Nassau Counted. Fantasia Last week this newspaper reported the deaths of two men who died while in the custody of the Police Department. One of these deaths, according to police, is still under investigation and we have been promised a report of the findings of that investigation. The other death which occurred in a jail cell in the West 123rd Street stationhouse, has been labeled a “suicide” by the police. According to police the prisoner in question, simply hanged himself on the door of his cell, using a silk handkerchief as his death weapon. Police say they took the handkerchief from the man when he was put in his cell but he stole the handkerchief back and hanged himself when no one was looking. Frankly speaking both cases smell to high Heaven. We asked the top police brass in the Harlem command the following questions: Does the Police Department consider this good police work and is the Police Department satisfied with this performance’ The answer the Police Department gave us amounted to this: Yes the Department considers this good police work, but it won’t happen again—that is to say no more prisoners will be allowed to steal back silk handkerchiefs from the police and hang themselves with such handkerchiefs, right under the Police Department’s nose. All we can say to that is that this is exactly the kind of half baked fantastic reports to the public which led to the unpleasant relations between the police and citizens of Negro areas a few summers ago. Let’s face it—when a man dies in a police station house after bein& under arrest the police department itself becomes suspect, and the public; is entitled to an explanation. And when that explanation sounds like a fairy tale for children, the image and effectiveness of the Department and its top officers is diminished in the eyes of the people tHfey serve. We await with interest the report of the investi­ gation into the death of the second man. And we still haven’t gotten over the shock of being told that nobody, including the police, saw a man run down and killed by an auto in the middle of 125th Street and Eighth Ave., at High Noon one sunny day last year. But it happened! Nassau Leads The Way Nassau County Executive Eugene Nickerson spearheaded a drive to establish a Commission for Human Rights in his area several months ago. A committee appointed by him recommended that this was absolutely necessary. For one thing Nassau Coun­ ty, now with a population of 1,400,000 of which three per cent is Negro, is filling up fast. So fast that all the problems — racial and otherwise — which pre­ vail in this kind of development were starting to show themselves . The board of supervisors of the County passed the law even before the Metcalf bill which gave this right to cities, towns and counties, was passed by the New York Legislature. This is what we call lead­ ing the way. ♦— Worth It? (An Editorial) We don’t make a habit of fighting court decis­ ions. There are enough people doing that south of th§ border, down in you-know-where. But we do reserve the right to make fair com­ ment on decisions of our courts and we have a few things to say this week about some recent decisions involving landlords and tenants. At the present time New York City’s Commis­ sioner of Buildings, Harold Birns, is standing with his hand out at City Hall asking for more money with which to hire men to serve summons on 4,000 slumlords in New York who continue to violate the Housing and Building laws .by forcing their tenants to live under Middle Age conditions. He charges the landlords ignore the summons if they are sent by mail. To listeh to Mr. Birns as he pleads for more money, one is led to believe that the entire landlord- tenant situation could be solved if he could just get the landlords into the courts. But just when one is inclined to go along with Mr. Birns and back his request for more money, along comes Jeno Weiss, a slum landlord and two •judges, Judge Frederick L. Strong and Judge Reuben Levy of Criminal Court. Last Monday Mr. Weiss appeared before Judge Levy and pleaded guilty on 21 counts of violations involving properties which he owns. Despite the fact that a City Health Department official asked Judge Levy to impose a maximum 90 day jail sentence on this man and maximum fines that would have totaled $4,200, Judge Levy only fined—Mr^ Weiss $800 and gave him a 90 day suspended sentence,-------x One day later the Health Department official appeared in Judge Strong’s court and again asked that .the maximum sentence be lodged against Mr. Weiss, w ho was before Judge Strong, with more viola­ tions on his property. The Health official pointed out that Judge Strong had previously fined Weiss $175 in three cases last February 8 and given him a 15 day suspended sentence and that Mr. Weiss currently had a record of 54 convictions. But despite this testimony Judge Strong only fined Mr. Weiss $100! All of this leads us to take a second look at Mr. Birns’ plea for more money for process servers. Undoubtedly both of these distinguished jurists had good reasons for ruling as they did in this case. But when a landlord with that kind of record is summoned to court and w’alks out with such rela­ tively light fines, there is a question as to whether the poor harassed tenant-taxpayer considers it worth while to spend more money on having them summoned into court. diseconomy luxury of petty pre- Are we American Negroes not worthy of such an honourable, Judices and factionalism.

Reverend Martin Luther King has been in jail for the last 12 days, during which time he was to have submitted his regular col­ umn to the Amsterdam News. Dr. King, however, was not able to write his column from in­ side the jail. The Amsterdam News, there­ fore, publishes this week excerpts of a sermon by Dr. King which he preached recently at Riverside Church on “The Dimensions of a Complete Life” and which seems appropriate for these times. “To a great extent many of the problems we face in race rela­ tions today grow out of the fact that there are still all too many of our white brothers concerned only about the length of life — their preferred economic posi­ tions, their social status, their po­ litical dynasties, their so-called way of life. If they would only add breadth to length—the other regarding dimension to the self- regarding dimension—the jangling discords of our nation would be transformed into a beautiful sym­ phony of brotherhood. “One day every white person in America will have to realize that his destiny is tied up in the des­ tiny of every black man and every black man will have to realize that his destiny is tied up within the destiny of every white man. Temptations “This is why I say that those of us who have been on the oppress­ ed end of the old order must be as much concerned about the di­ mension of breadth as anybody else. There are temptations that come to us. Temptations to want to rise from a position of dis­ advantage, thus subverting jus­ tice. “Temptation to substitute one tyranny for another. “Something must remind us of the dimension of breadth. Some­ thing must remind us that black supremacy is as dangerous as white supremacy. “And God is not interested merely in the freedom of black men and brown men and yellow men, but God is interested in the freedom of the whole human race and the ci ?ation of a society where all men can live together as brothers and every man will respect the dignity and worth of human personality. Non-Violence “This is why I believe so firm­ ly in non-violence. This is why I believe so firmly that the ethic of love must stand at the center of any movement that is seeking to break loose from some unjust order and move to a just order. “This is why our message and our struggle in the South is a message of non-violence. “And so we have been able to say, in very difficult moments, to our most violent opponents, ‘We will match your capacity to en­ dure suffering. We will meet your physical force with soul force. Do to us what you will and we will still love you.’ “ ‘We cannot in all good con­ science obey your unjust laws be­ cause non-cooperation with evil is as much a moral obligation as is cooperation with good.’ “ ‘And so throw us in jail and we will still love you. Bomb our homes and threaten our children and we will still love you. Send your propaganda agents across the country and make it appear that we are not fit morally, cul­ turally or otherwise for integra­ tion and we will still love you,’ “ ‘Send your hooded perpetra­ tors of violence into our communi­ ties at midnight hours and drag us out on some wayside road and beat us and leave us half dead and, as difficult as it is, we wiU still love you. Be ye assured that we will win our freedom.’ “ ‘We will not only win freedom for ourselves, but we will so ap­ peal to your heart and conscience that we will win you in the pro­ cess and our victory will be a double victory.’ “This is our message and I be­ lieve this is the only way to estab­ lish the beloved community. For we must incorporate breadth in our struggle in order to achieve a moral balance within society and the brotherhood we seek.” Pulse Of New York’s Public The Amsterdam Newt welcomes letteri on either tide of any subject.

Sir: I would like this as an open letter to the barbers of the city. With your help and support I think that the barbers will get together and stop their undercut rates for the skillful profession and raise the prices to a stand­ ard for all barber shops. As of now the service in the barber shops of New York City are lower than any other major city in the United States. Hair cuts and s(have rates to New York City range as follows: Hair Cut—$.50, .60, .75 to $1.00, shaves —$ 40 to .75, these prices are ridiculous. The cost of living has tripled to what it was a few years ago. Equipments and sup­ plies are doubled and now a new tax has gone into effect, includ ing occupancy tax. Get together barbers and raise the prices July 1, 1963 Hair cut —$1.50, boys haircut $1 25 Mon , Thru Sat., shave $1 00 All other services up 25 percent. Jan. 1. 1964 raise prices to a standard of hair cuts $2 00, shaves $1 00 Thank you. Hope you will re­ spond. Mr. A. A. Robinson New York, N.Y. as being equally segregated?

Let us not adopt an inferior attitude because we are not an incumbent of the mass (always remembering no valid superiority is ever inher­ ent there of birds of a feather may flock together, (but so do Sea-Gulls) Segregation to itself is not the cause nor integration the answer to our problems.

Let us first find ourselves and I am sure other things will be added. Don Carmen, St. Albans, N.Y. Wouldn't It! Time Running Out Sir: Answer me these questions. Why would a young Negro boy say of a white man who had been struck by an uncontroll­ ed auto, he is white let him die. And a companion question, why a young white mother said she would not Join a PTA be­ cause she would not put herself to a position to socialize with her Negro domestic worker. How did they get that way? Something must be wrong and it smells to high Heaven. Just a personal word, the con­ stant gunning for Adam Powell has gained him more friends and votes than he would win by the most intensive campaigning. The time has come when Negroes use their hatchets to cut off heads, they don’t use Capn Char­ ley’s hatchet any more. Who are these people who are so perfect that they can tell Ne­ groes how good or how bad their leaders are. Most of them don’t agree with Powell on the NAACP.

Terri was out to pames (even though some were inclin-;ma4te the toer chance. ed to be cooperative) are a hard core of incipient prejudice — or even worse And she did, too, when she sang "Just In Time” and even the cool Mr. Carson verbally — indifference to the matter of job op- flipped.

We ourselves know for a Forgot Lyrics fact that many radio and television But the second time around, Terri was in the middle of "Some programs are wj,ere jn The Night”, which is “race monitored” by the advertising agencies.

They were praising her to the skys. their share of blame but it is apparent that the net­ works have made themselves quite clear about im­ proving the Negro image. Even those who at first thought they were putting on an act have realized now that they actually mean business now. So where is the bottleneck? Invited Back And Instead of Terri blowing her big chance, she had made it but big. When a member of Carson's company entered her dressing room, be didn’t come to tell her she had wasted an op­ portunity. He came, instead, to tell her that she was Invited back, to return Wednesday night. .TlZlTtSi Let’s face it. Although the picture has changed and improved from what it was say three years ago, there is still an evidence of certain elements dragging their feet. The bottleneck without doubt has been re- moved from the casting set-up, from the executives —on sla«e of the networks, from the directors and writers, even from many of the producers and the production houses. Therefore it has to be in the advertising agencies. Kept Mum It is interesting that in all the investigation that has gone on, the advertising companies have remained significantly quiet. While other groups have come up with honest desire to try and work for a common good, the advertising chieftains have remained mum in their little ivory towers on Madison avenue, hoping against hope that the bad dream will disappear and they can then return to the status quo Well we don’t think the SCHR should let them remain in their soft havens. If anything let’s make that bad dream a real­ ity and clear up once and for all the bottleneck that is keeping Negroes off the airwaves. She Sings From “A ToZ” And Her Name Is Azie By JESSE H. WALKER Azie Mortimer, a young Bronx-1 born singer whose biography des- j cribes her style as being from' "A to Z”, isn't crying a bit over her current Epic label, although the title is "Cry Me A River”. She isn't crying because the record, only out two weeks, seem to be moving; the disc jockeys are playing it and if it turns out j to be a hit, Azie won't be sad at' all. The arranger and conductor for i the record is Reggie Obrecht who' heard Azie when she was first, singing around town and began coaching her. Her biography’says she once used "to perch like a kitten on the window sill” of her Bronx home, tlx flights up, and sing as loud as she could.

Good Bye To A Friend The death of Carl Tomlinson, famed host and pro­ prietor of Carl’s Corner, came as a shock, despite the fact that he had been ailing for sometime. Carl was a good man, a good friend, stern in business but fair. He was also, a humorous, charming person who had such tact, such patience and was a very simple and n^Ljji^l person at all times. His splendid, spotless cafe was the scene of happy patrons who seemed determined to make it a monu­ ment to a great host. Who can replace Carl is a big question. I shall personnally miss him, because he had been a good friend of mine for years. Night life has suffered a great loss and many of us have lost a kind thoughtful friend. Goodbye to one of the nicest guys you could possibly meet. Flash Inn The Flash Inn, 154th St. and Seventh Ave., fea­ tures many specialities on their menu. This has been the story of the Merenda Brothers, Joe and Tony, since they opened several years ago, and their patrons seem to agree. Many new food dishes have been added since they opened, with old favorites still on the menu, but if you haven’t visited there lately, some wonder­ ful treats from around the world await you. They sell more steaks than any other item on the menu. But, for that added flare they offer some wines rarely seen around town. And, if you are in the mood for the side­ walks of Paris, their sidewalk cafe is the answer. The brothers’ answer to all of this is: “We always try to run a fine restaurant and bar that should please every guest who enjoys gracious dining and wining.” Total contributions to the Camp Fund to date is $2,671.03. * See you at the Palm Cafe, Monday Night. . - - Art Emancipation Musicale For . 1 ~ ~ 28. - Mr. Gittens’ use of composition and color reveals the tension be­ tween the physical and psychical manifestations of his subjects.

For those over 25, including 25 to 29, 30 to 34, and over-34 categories, the word gaining first place at­ tention was "hopeful.” Getting dates, getting along with the family and keeping friends ranked low among the teenage group’s worries. Having enough money, the survey shows, begins to pinch at 18 to 24 years of age, but is high enough to show that it plagues all groups Educational Opportunities What encourages them most about life today? In the overall picture, the order of encouraging factors was “ed­ ucational opportunities,” check­ ed by 5,341; “friends,” noted by 5,302, and “religious faith” by 5,208.

The survey, in providing an swers on what encourages girls and women most about life today, shows that, whereas friends (not family) provide the greatest source of encouragement for the women most? Put of the total participation, the -worries were: first, “uncer­ tainty of the future,” which was marked by 5,428; “having enough money,” second with 3,214 so in­ dicating, and “threat of nuclear war,” third with 3,153.

It’s a tremendous experience to be living today be­ cause of the changes of this at­ omic age and the history being made in Africa and among Am­ erican Negroes.

Miss Donna Dale, “Miss Beaux Arts” contestant gave her view as: “It is a great responsibility and a great challenge: but it is one that should be easily and readily accepted. "World peace Is one of the biggest problems and my greatest worry. "Confidence in my self, as well as other people is of great en couragement.” Miss Marva Revis, “Miss Beaux Arts” contestant gave her comments as: *— -■ ——— “Wonderful, because I have the opportunity to meet people In all walks of life with whom I enjoy conversing, as I am a human­ itarian. "Dissension among nations worries me most. Miss Ollie Willins, "Miss Beaux Arts” contestant, said: “It is great feeling to know that the future of the race depends on me. “The great willingness of black people to forfeit everything they possess for future generations to come.” Miss Judy Young "Miss Beaux Arts” contestant gave her suc­ cinct views as: “Challenging and I love it; I am almost ashamed to say nothing worries me, but if I think about it, the possibility of a nuclear war does and people, being in love and being young encourage me most.” Miss Yvonne Swann, "Miss Beaux Arts” contestant gave her views as: "The place and pos­ sibilities of my people and my own economic needs worry me most and the opportunities for women today for independence and for a voice in the future of my country encourage me most Likes f'hahglng World Miss LaVerne Mossman, “Miss Beaux Arts” contestant, said: “I am very glad that I live in todays changing world. The threat of war and nuclear annihilation per­ haps worries me most and the awakening of the Negro people; the demand for their constitution­ al rights and rights as human brings are very encouraging in­ deed NY Drifters Dance The New York City Drifters Rave a dance recently at the Riviera Terrace.

Blousteln, acting chairman of the City Planning Ccnunisslon has sent the follow­ ing letter to the Amsterdam News clarifying the position of the City Planning Department in the new housing program for the Bedford-Stuyvesant section. His clarification comes as a result of the sharp critical views expressed by Civic spokesmen in a story carried in the April 6 Issue of the Amsterdam News. Reactions Excerpts of the letter follows: “Giving coverage to all re­ actions to the proposal, the News published excerpts of a letter WTltteo by Leroy McLean, the president of the Brower Park Civic Association. ‘In part, Mr. McLean stated: It is time the City Planning Commission. . .let it be known that the National Housing Act provides for urban renewal by means other than the massive bulldozing methods that were supposed to be discontinued in the city. . -The City Planning Commission has never let it be known that millions of dollars are available to small property owners at low Interest rates to improve their homes. “This is a somewhat puzzling charge. As early as 1956. in developing recommendations for the revitalization of the J)0-block West Side Urban Renewal Area in Manhattan, the Commission stressed the importance of re­ taining sound residential struc­ tures. The Commission’s early recommendations have been In­ corporated in the final plan for the area, approved last year, In which nearly 45 per cent of the 14,650 apartments Involved are scheduled for conservation or rehabilitation treatment. Dominant “Rehabilitation assumed a dominant role in the 1962-63 re­ newal program. Of the 10 new areas selected, six were ex­ plicitly chosen because they of­ fered a significant poten­ tial for neighborhood improve­ ment through a coordinated pro­ gram based on low-cost home improvement loans. Mr. McLean's Brower Park Civic Association was well rep­ resented in these interchanges. Last November Mr. McLean, himself, helped to assemble a gathering of local citizenry to receive information on various aspects of the rehabilitation study effort. In point of fact, Mr. McLean has been cooper­ ating in the development of a program he implies doesn’t ex­ ist, and about which he states the public has not been in­ formed.” Low Rent Project Will Go Up In Queens io Cariello hastened, Friday, to the aide of the poor and estab­ lished their right to enjoy the bounties of nature. Queens Borough President Mar- ority suggested that a large pro- ject be erected at 41st St., and the community groups agreed. Thus the suggestion that the low income project be moved away from the balmy view of the Bay was both a source of fear and doubt. But on Friday, Mr. Cariello assured all parties at the 299 Broadway meeting, that the project would be built on the proposed site. Mr. Cariello told a hastily called meeting at the office of New York City Housing Authority chair­ man, William Reid, that he fav­ ored construction of an 800-apart- ment low income project at the edge of Jamaica Bay, on Rock­ away Peninsula. The day before, two members of the Borough President’s of­ fice had stated at an open air meeting on 39th St. and Beach Channel Drive, that the low in come projects should be moved back from the Bay to make place far a privately sponsored middle- income housing project. Near the Bay The site near the Bay, at 41st St. and Beach Channel Drive, had been agreed upon by the Far Rockaway NAACP, the Rock­ away Council on Relocation and Conservation as well as all-white groups that previously opposed Rockaway low-income projects And in a message to the Am­ sterdam News he asserted: “I am whole-heartedly in favor of it and I am sure it will be built,’’ as planned. He added that steps were being taken to provide a balance through the construction of middle income housing However, “this will in no way delay the low income housing project which I am anxious to see progressed,” the Queens Bar ough President stated.

Kerr last week issued an order calling for the end of segrega­ tion by Sept. 1, 1964. The order has been left up the the chance­ llors and deans for enforcement. Many fraternity and sorority chapters are affiliated with nat­ ional organizations that have charter clauses prohibiting min­ ority groups.

WORLD WIDE TRAVEL SERVICE Immigration and Naturalization Information MA 5-1150 Cariello Opposes Plan For Atomic Plant Coney Is. Project Needs Builders At a meeting of representatives of the Astoria-Long Island City Community Council in his office. Queens President Mario J. Car iello voiced his “strong op­ position” to the application of Consolidated Edison, pending be­ fore the U. S. Atomic Energy Commission, to construct a mil­ lion kilowatt nuclear power plant adjacent to its Ravenswood sta­ tion in Long Island City. At the Mme time Cariello dis­ patched a copy of his statement to the U. S. Atomic Energy Com­ mission in Washington, D. C. and Con Edison in Manhattan. Remote Areas “My strong opposition in the first instance to this application by Con Edison,” the Queens President said, "is based on a conviction that this type of nu­ clear facility should not be con­ structed in a densely populated Metropolitan area. This I believe is consonant with AEC policy that such projects should be con­ structed in more remote areas away from Metropolitan centers.” Cariello’s objections were also based on passible air and water fallout contamination from the proposed plant in Long Island City, which he said in the daytime has five and a half million people within a radius of five miles. He expressed fear of possible sabo­ tage inside the plant. Protective “Even with the contemplated protective measures proposed for the outside of the plant,” Cariello said, “it is not yet established that sabotage from the inside is impossible.” Teeners Dance The Stuyvesant Community Center will hold a teeners dance from 3 to 8 pm., Saturday, May 11 in the Center’s recreation room, 164 Troy Ave. The event is being sponsored by the Day Camp group to raise funds to provide a summer day care camp for children between ages 6 and 12. An entertaining movie will be shown before the dance, and re­ freshments will be served. Students For Spring Brooklyn Central YMCA is reg­ istering students for the spring adult classes in popular dancing, painting, and sketching, contract bridge in addition to conversa tional French and Spanish. Classes begin May 6, at 55 Han­ son Place, Brooklyn. The Astoria-Long Island City Community Council, which com­ prises some 60 church and school groups, veteran and fraternal or­ ganizations, civic, social and wel­ fare agencies, was represented by Simon Tropp, Martin R. Fried­ man, Irving Katz, Robert Kelly, James Bitees and Arthur Hen- driksen, the latter also the Dem­ ocratic leader of the 1st Assembi District. Hope For Addicts Drug addicts who really want to overcame the habit without Incurring the etlgma of a prison sentence will soon get the kind of help they need under a spe- ialized program based on new techniques and methods. A grant in the amount of $390,- 000 to carry out the addiction treatment project has been awar­ ded to the Probation Depart­ ment of the Kings County Su­ preme Court by the National In­ stitute of Mental Health. Drug Justice George J. Beldock of the Appellate Division, Second Judicial Department, eaid the funds will be used for the es­ tablishment and operation of a “halfway house’’ for the treat­ ment of drug addicts on proba­ tion. Just where the halfway house will be located is not yet deter­ mined, but according to plans it will have a capacity for some 25 cases at one time. Probation Joseph A. Shelly, chief pro­ bation officer of the Brooklyn Supreme Court, stated that this will be the first lialfway house for probationers in the U.S. “It is hoped the project will demonstrate the feasibility of successfully treating drug addicts without recourse to imprison­ ment,” Shelly added. Most of the new techniques and methods to be applied under the program have been develop­ ed from mistakes of the past, Shelly indicated. Last year, he conducted a na­ tionwide survey of various nar­ cotics facilities and programs un­ der a grant provided by the Na­ tional Institute of Mental Health. A team of expert consultants worked with him on that survey. Project The project, which is expect­ ed to save the community be­ tween $2,000 and $3,000 a year for each addict treated, will have several elements of Alchriic6 An- noymous, except that treatment will be continuous, and greater discipline will be applied. Probationers will not be per­ mitted to leave the house until it is believed they have shored up enough will power to resist taking drugs, the announcement revealed. This will take up to aj year. Builders applications were be­ ing solicited this week by the Housing and Redevelopment Board for the construction of a 1,150-family middle income pro­ ject in the Coney Island West area of Brooklyn. Milton Mollen, HBR chairman, said Inquiries would be received from builders until April 30 for the Title I urban renewal develop­ ment. Housing In other housing activities, the proposed Cadman Plaza develop- Laundry Toes A Brooklyn laundry this week agreed to make some adjust­ ments in its plant to avoid any further complaints that It had been acting to the detriment and health o£ residents of the area. The action was taken by the New York City License Depart­ ment against the Sparco Steam Laundry, 1801-11 Ave. Z, follow­ ing a complaint received from Mrs. Dora A. Wollman, a house­ wife, who lives at 2547 E. 18th St., Brooklyn. Facilities An investigation conducted by Commissioner Bernard J. O’Con­ nell on the basis of Mrs. Woll- man’s complaint disclosed that Sparco maintained and operated five separate unlicensed laundry facilities. The company has agreed to take care of these irregularities. They included improper lint filters, broken window panes, unscreen­ ed windows, hand-carts and other equipment on the sidewalk, and a barrier or dike for slops flow­ ing from the premises. Mrs. Wollman had complained about the annoyance created by noises, soot and pdors among other things. ment approved by the City Plan­ ning Commission last month for an additional 173-apartment pro­ ject on the northeast corner of Poplar St., met with opposition this week from the Brooklyn Heights Association. The Association denounced the plan, contending that the aite la needed for community recrea­ tional facilities. The group alto pointed out that additional hous­ ing units would cram too many people Into an area already over­ crowded by at least 200 families. Support Support of the city plan, how- ♦ver, has been voiced by Rev. Donald W. McKinney. He made a significant observation regard­ ing the tendency of using urban renewal projects to isolate dif­ ferent income groups and "create virtual ghettos of lower- income areas.” He expressed the view that Cadman Plaza would mark an “important step toward responsi­ ble community planning."

Eighteen of the 2? spc'. ers at the April 17 psbik’ hrarinj be­ fore the City Planning Coir, mis­ sion at City Hall, opposed the de­ velopments. But, said acting chairman Francis J. Bloustein, decisions on the matter will be made by the New York City Hou­ sing Authority. Scheduled The 562 - unit low income hous­ ing was scheduled to rise in the area bounded by Sumner Ave., Quincy St., Lewis Ave. and Mon­ roe St. The middle income, with 600 apartments, was to be built on the site enclosed by Reid Ave. Monroe St., Stuyvesant and Quin­ cy St. St. Clair T. Bourne spoke for the Local School Board, 32-34, stating that it was “pointless to build more and more housing, if the additional children that inev­ itably come with such housing are not assured of necessary and adequate school facilities.” He reiterated a point which he said the board had made on an­ other occasion. This was that housing development plans should include new schools.

"Bedford - Stuyvesant is re­ sided in predominantly by Neg­ roes. It has been a struggle for the people who were able to ac-l cumulate small savings over a period of years. They invested) their life - time savings in the homes they now own.” “The same people,” Mrs. Shan­ non said, “have deprived them­ selves of so many of the neces­ sary things vital to healthful liv­ ing, because of their inability to obtain loans to make necessary repairs oh their homes." Leroy McLean, president of the Brower Park Civic Association, argued tfiht the people living in the area under consideration had not been sufficiently apprised of the City's plans, and should have been. Involve Present plans, he said, involve the destruction of hundreds of perfectly sound homes and the Association opposed this ap- J proach. Also present policy was a threat to the small homeown­ er. "After an area is declared a slum, the City of New York, with Federal funds, offers plenty of assistance to big real estate op­ erators, speculators and spons­ ors. We urge the City to try a grass roots approach to the solu­ tion of slums Assist the small homeowner to improve his prop­ erty," McLean pleaded. Residents A good proportion of residents in the area were Welfare clients not accepted in City Housing projects. Thus when bouses come down they will move to Increase congestion elsewhere. Mrs. Elsie Richardson, the As­ sociation secretary, called for “a new concept of vest pocket housing" in Bedford - Stuyvesant to do away with bad homes. But there were very many good homes, which should, she said, not be demolished. Instead the City should Induce developers to build new two - family homes to replace the bad ones. Award Night Brooklyn State Hospital will honor various volunteer organiza­ tions and individual volunteers at an "Award Night" on April 30 in the hospital's auditorium, 681 Clarkson Ave. Mbu Edwiene Schmitt, Visitors Board president, is listed as spec Hal speaker.

One thing that seems to dis­ turb people is the idea that Neg­ roes seek intermarriage with TT?don’t know what may hap. WOOlWOrth pen in the distant future, but I aun.confident that the Negroes have no goal of intermarriage. If they bad, they would have been rushing to marry whites in New York, in Illinois, in Michi­ gan and in all the other states— about >85 in all where intermar­ riage is not forbidden by law. But, instead, you have a very few, an infinitesimal number of intermarriages. I think that is the best answer to this question. Furthermore — women being faf*fndre canny at this marriage business than men — white wom­ en are not going to marry men who, they’ve been told since childhood, are inferior, can’t earn a good living. The woman naturally wants somebody who’s goiftTlo have social standing, wjfcdr she can introduce to ber friends with pride, and whom her family,will accept. F. W. Woolworth, In a state­ ment issued this week, has branded as unfair, the boycott of its stores by civil rights groups, a Woolworth Company official said. “The statement has been made that the chain stores operating in Birmingham, Alabama made an agreement last September to desegregate their lunch counters. The fact is that no such agree­ ment was ever made. “An ordinance in Birmingham prohibits desegregation of lunch counters, theaters, rest rooms and other public facilities. This law is being enforced vigorously by local authorities. “Woolworth’s always has hon­ ored any and all lawful agree­ ments to desegregate its lunch counters in the South and cer­ tainly would do so should such a lawful agreement be reached by community leaders in Bir­ mingham. -QrWbat is the attitude of Ne- rfrfs fipward intermarriage?

They Just felt that, in the first place, tbgjsgto were too young to under­ stand what they were up against. The colored mother was more disturbed than the white mother. The youngsters finally broke off. Q. Was this colored mother ty- ■pical, would you say? Ji I. would say “Yes.” You’ll find some Negroes who consider Jt to be a great thing to be allied 'with a white family. But they are •Jn the-jninority.

Well, the only thing I can >ay 14 that Negroes are Just as conservative as American white people. .* And then there is this: Among omen there is great com- Bars Violence In connection with the deseg­ regation of our lunch counters, our primary concern is that it be accomplished without violence. That is why we feel it is so important to work with com­ munity leaders. ‘‘Because of Woolworth’s out­ standing record in race relations, and in view of our consistent and continuing record of active co-operation in peaceful desegre­ gation of lunch counters in the South during the past three years, a boycott of our stores is completely unwarranted and un­ fair. "Contrary to some reports, “Woolworth’s has not caused the arrest of any person in conncc tion with alt-ins at any of its lunch counters.” Booklet Shows Progress Speed The Negro Labor Committee disclosed this week that a pam­ phlet on "Progress - At Very Deliberate Speed,” depicting the progress Negroes have made and must still make to attain first- class American citizenship, is now on sale, at 25 cents a copy, at the NLC OFFICE AT W. 125th St. Employees Quitting City Agency What's Wrong At COHR? A few days ago the director of the business and employment division of the By JAMES BOOKER (First of a Series) city Commission on Human Rights resigned to accept a better paying post. staff members who are rapidly leaving the agency which could be an effective instrument in helping to make New York City a model for intergroup harmony. These are some of the conclu­ sions reached by this reporter in a series of discussions and interviews with civic and com­ munity leaders and with present and former staff members of the agency which officials say is being treated as a "stepchild” of the city’s major departments, despite the Mayor’s constant glowing phrases in praise of COHR. Most civic leaders agree that the low budget of the agency is partially responsible for some of its troubles. Since 1955 when the salaries of the Commission staff workers were established, there has been no change in the salaries, despite the increase in the cost of living, and the fact that four new de­ partments, the Housing and Re- P " ° see tbat businesses doing work with Ihe city do so on a non-bias basis, and the ethnic survey to get the racial composition of various city agencies to see if minority group workers are discrimina­ ted aganst in promotions and upgradings in city departments. Staff Quitting The situation, however is typi­ cal of the type of conditions go­ ing on within the Commission on Human Rights in the past few years because of its burden­ some, non-salaried, 15-member Commission, the lack of clear authority and official status of the agency, and the law pay of Sympathy Pickets Hurt Variety Store Business , ....

Most of their jobs have not been filled because replacements will not come In at the salaries offered. Added to the staff p at COHR is the tension-torn valry of the 15 members of the Commission who represent vari­ ous ethnic, religious, civic and community groupings in the city. The mere composition makes it almost impossible for effective action by the staff, many civic leaders point out. Chairman Stanley H. Lowell, as the non- salaried chairman of COHR, is often out of town on business and frequently handling private cases with other city agencies, and frequently staffers have claimed they cannot take action until it has been cleared with the chairman. Recently a Commission anti- bias housing hearing was post­ poned for six weeks because one of the Commissioners was busy in his private office, and the ethnic survey which Mayor Wag­ ner announced would be com­ pleted in January, has been de­ layed and hasn’t gotten started because other city agencies pay little attention to COHR In the scheme of things. Often official requests from the Commission are ignored at City Hall. Since last summer the Mayor’s office has delayed action on a report of bias charges in the Department of Corrections. A request for a Brooklyn field of­ fice has been ignored, and In­ creases are forgotten. Where Is the Commission go­ ing? Is it playing an eff^Ave role in combatting racial t2h- sions? What do city oficlals say about It? What can de done to help change conditions In this vital agency? These will be dis­ cussed in future articles.

Landlord Must Stop Discrimination TRENTON, N.J. — The Vesta Co. and its owners were ordered Saturday to cease and desist dis­ criminating in renting their apart­ ments at 2 Dempsey Ave., Edge- water. by George S. Pfaus, Assis­ tant Commissioner of Education. The owners are Henry C. Senger, Jr., John Lowe and Joseph T.. Panucci. The order culminates the pro-J cessing of a complaint filed on December 18. 1962 with the New Jersey Division on Civil Rights by Mrs. Della David, a Negro. Mrs. David charged that she had been refused rental of a vacant apartment in the building at 2 Dempsey Ave. because of her race. Following investigation by staff of the division and the failure of mediation efforts, a public hear-* ing was scheduled before Hear­ ing Examiner Julius Wildstein. The hearing was held on January I 11 and 15, 1963 and Saturday's order by Pfaus follows the re­ commendations of the hearing examiner. The Veata Co. was not directed to the order to rent an apart­ ment to Mrs. David because she and her family "subsequent to the filing of the complaint and without awaiting the hearing atTfl decision in this matter, resorted to self-help by moving into dis­ puted apartment without the per­ mission of any of the respond­ ents,” ‘Pfaus said quoting Wild- steln’s report of hit findings.
