The agreement covers 23 A ic P supermarkets in Brooklyn. Initial Breakthrough The Mayor noted that the agreement marks an Initial break through for Negroes in entry positions with the firm. Accord­ ing to the A b P’s personne policy, store ^nanager, assistant store manager, department heat and other positions are filled from these entry positions. Ac cordingly, it is hoped that in­ dividuals who receive the entry jobs will be enabled to move to higher positions, after training and experience, in a relatively short time. adults in an eight week, 8 hour day, education program specif­ ically designed to prepare individ­ uals for jobs. The program was sponsored by the Department of Labor and the New York City Board of Education. In Progress The agreement was the result of negotiations which have been in progress for the past two weeks, initiated at the behest of residents in Bedford - Stuyvesant who were concerned about the apparent lack of Negro employees n the A 8c P supermarkets in Brooklyn and Queens. The nego­ tiations were carried out under the direction of Darwin Bolden, Director of the Bedford - Stuy­ vesant Area Services Project. Harry J. Mulrey, Director of Personnel, A 8c P supermarkets, Brooklyn and Queens, negotiated the agreement for the chain stores. As a result of thia break­ through, tat Mayor has directed the Housing and Redevelopment Board — of which the Neighbor­ hood Conservation Program Is a part — to step up its activities in this field and has asked other affected agencies to continue to coordinate their efforts with that of the Conservation Program.

From the pulpit of his Con­ cord Baptist Church in Bedford Stuyvesant, the Rev.

Disappointed and saddened by Birmingham bombings, Rev. Tay­ lor spoke Monday, of a basic dis­ agreement with the non-violeat philosophy. The idea grew out of the liberal theology at Chicago University Divinity School, when twenty years ago. It was held that man was basically good and did not need any sanctions. Ha did not accept that.
