PCWA Seeks Cleaner Area With its sight set on the “sub­ versive and depraved element of Harlem,” the People’s Civic and Welfare Association meets Thursday of this week at 12:30 p. m. at the Harlem YMCA, 180 W. 135th St., to formulate plans to increase the crackdown. Glester Hinds, association chairman, will ask for greater cooperation between Harlemites and police in the continuing war to flush out seize hopheads and other law-defiant groups in Har­ lem.

The latest controversy report­ edly stemmed from the club** refusal to reinstate eleven mem­ bers who resigned last January following the rejection of a mem­ bership application from Carl T. Rowan, a Negro who Is Deputy Assistant Secretary of State. Only last month John Hope Franklin, professor at Brooklyn College, N.Y. became the first Negro member of. the club. Explaining its stand in the current controversy, the club’s 14-man board of management charged that the eleven who re­ signed when Rowan was turned down, acted “with undue haste, without careful investigation of the facts, and upon unwarranted assumptions as to the basis of the admission committee’s ac­ tions.” Among the members who re­ signed last January and have been denied reinstatement are J. Kenneth Galbraith, U.S. Am bassador to India; Harlan Cleve­ land, Assistant Secretary of State, Bruce Catton, author and editor of American Heritage magazine, Raymond Swing, Voice of America commentator, Jerome B. Wiesner, presidential adviser on science and technol­ ogy, and Howard K. Smith, tele­ vision commentator.

The city officially takes title to ell properties in the area on January 31, after which toe West Side project will begin. Officials estimate that it will take from five to seven years to complete, and toe project wili be built in three stages, with relocations aa the first step in the renewal of toe key renewal area. The total project, including new street Improvements, shopping centers, end other Improvements, will cost aproximatefy $160,000, 000. FORMAL WEAR RENTAL Declaring that the Ne­ gro citizen thinks 100 years has been too long to wait and he wants no further delay, Roy Wil­ kins, NAACP executive secretary, said this week that the new mood of the NAACP will be one of “im patient determination” in the rest of the 1960's. While many whites from the South talk of hopes for racial peace, although they mean a cessation of agitation on the racial question, Wilkins told the NAACP’s annual meeting Mon day, “There will be no peace until there is Justice — full measure, press down and run­ ning over.” Wilkins said the NAACP will step up its drive for additional speed, in the rest of theSiz^ies, in­ cluding stronger pressure on the President for further action in housing, employment, and other fields. Tims Has Come "The time has come for an overall Executive Order which will require the wiping out of restrictions upon citizens of the United States which have been imposed, contrary to the pro­ visions of the Constitution, solely by reason of their race and color,” he declared. NAACP activities in the new year will be stepped up, Wilkins •tressed, against the trade union movement restrictions. “In cases of stand-pat4sma and malinger­ ing, we expect to charge that un­ fair labor practices exist and to seek decertification of unions that continue to misrepresent their Negro members." Wilkins also said the NAACP will seek a new federal executive order in housing to cover more than the present order does, a wider ending of discrimination in travel accommodations, and an end of tokenism in compliance with school desegregation orders In his annual report to the NAACP board of directors and members, Wilkins praised Presi- dent Kennedy, although he pre­ dicted that the new Congress would go slow on civH rights measures. He said the President has "act­ ed upon phases of the race prob­ lem and has Impressed its im portance upon hia executive es­ tablishment in a manner not ap­ proached by hia predecessors. ... . — NAAZ3P executive alto praised the Attorney General for his forthright action on civil rights. __ In a special report to the meet­ ing, Gloster Current, NAACP di­ rector of branches, reported that the membership is now at 390,347, an increase of some 9,506 over 1951. Chicago is first In branch membership with 22,325, followed by Detroit, Cleveland, Philadel­ phia, Washington, Baltimore and New York’s New York or Harlem branch. Income Alfred Baker Lewis, NAACP treasurer,'said that during the year the total income was $1,066, 104, with $576,000 received from branches. Tbs total expenditures, however, exceeded inooms by $224,000, and it was necessary for the NAACP to reach into Its life membership income and reserves to meet the expenses. Nineteen persons were elected or reelected to the board includ ing Dr. Ralph Bunche, Jackie Robinson, Dr. Leonidas Leach, Alfred Baker Lewis, Klvle Kap­ lan, Mrs. J. E. Spingarn, Theo­ dore O. Berry, Sen. Herbert Leh­ man, James J. McClendon, James Steward, Dr. J.M. Tln.ley, Mrs Jessie Vann, Nathaniel ColleyL Henry R. Smith, Edward M. Tur­ ner, Mr*. Margaret Wilson, Rev Theodore Gibson, Dr. Leonard Burns, Robert P. Robertson, and John Davis. Four new vice presidents were elected including Mrs. Memphis T. Garrison, Dr. Algernon D. Black, Attorney Z. Alexander Looby, and Dr. Benjamin E Mays. Roy Wilkins was reelected executive secretary and Bishop Stephen G. Spottawood was re­ elected board chairman. Funeral services were held Wednesday afternoon at the Park West Chapel tor Dr. Morris Leo Bobrow, well - known director of the Gynecology Division at Har lem Hospital since 1952, who died of a heart attack Monday night while at work at Misericordia Hospital. A family spokesman said Dr. Bobrow, who had become well known in the Harlem commun­ ity in recent years for his ef­ forts In cancer prevention, had gone about his duties and had vis­ ited his wife, a patient at Mlseri cordia, before he suffered his fatal attack. The 64-year-old physician, who had authored many scientific pa­ per* in the field of gynecology, had been the center of much in­ ter - hospital feuding last year when his staff and others wanted him appointed head of the com­ bined Obstetrics and Gynecology Departments. The post eventual ly went to Dr. Donald Swartz, of Canada. Dr. Bobrow, who resided with his wife at 590 West End Ave., is also survived by a son, Dr Jo­ seph Bobrow, a resident physician at Harlem Hospital, and a sister in Canada. -Rowan (Continued from Page One) sue of The Saturday Evening Post that he is "as critical of a com­ munity which practices legal gimmicks and administrative trickery to frustrate Justice as I am of one which shows open ho< tility to change.” Citing North CaroTfna where only 900 of nearly 340.000 Negro children attend all - white schools as well as Mississippi, Alabama, Yirgmla, Texas and others with state - ’imposed racial barriers. Rowan said "only where the spir­ it of liberty has grown weak can people wink an editorial or Judic­ ial eye at such deeds.” Token integration schemes are affronts to Justice, acocrdmg to Rowan, who believes that "phon­ ies and sharpiies" on school board and city councils are more dang­ erous than people who openly re­ sist the court ruling “out of Ignor­ ance, time - encrusted fear or ad­ mitted blgorty:" HAVING A PARTY?
