CAN MARTIN LUTHER KING
CONTROL THE NEGRO TEMPER?
Today, King is the key figure in the Civi^Rights
conflict, standing halfway between the moder
ate NAACP and the militant Black Muslims.
But haw many'Negroes are satisfied with his
Gandhi tactics? Will they continue to suffer
physical abuse without striking back? This
week's Post contains a fascinating portrait of
the man and his mission: His political strength
in swinging Negro votes, the concern cf his
friends over whether King leads a movement,
or a movement leads King. Don't miss it.
