the favor Of the White House 1t had
an overwhelming majority of votes
pledged for its passage If it sver
anne up The one stumbling block has
been getting It before ths senate fo-
a vote That stumbling block has been
created by a small bloc of senator's
who could not hope to defeat the bill
once it got on the floor, so they used
all their privileges and tricks to keep
it off the floor. If no action is taken
on this bill in the closing days, the
senators who have blocked it cannot
escape being classed as ASSISTANTS
in every lynching which takes place
from this TINA forth. They have tax
en- sides with the mob and against law
and order.
when next the so-called hoodlums
of Tennessee, Miss, Georgia, Arkan-
sas and Louisiana lynch a man, they
will be aided by the senators from
their states, just as surely as though
the senators were in the mobs-
"Some of the enemies of this bin
can be reached in the next election;
some come from states where Nsgro
voters are barred from the ballot.
The records Of all will be exposed to
the Negro citizens Of the country so
that enemies may be distinguished
from friends, for no representative
can pos as a friend of Negroes or Of
humanity who favos ~lynching."
Another last miGute appeal to Pre-
sident Roosevelt was sznt by the N
A. A. @. P. yesterday urging action
on the bill. Mr.. White said the n. A.
ACP. would not cease its efforts v
en- though the bill is not acted upon
now. A still more intense and sus-
tanned fight win be mad at the next

ED JIM CROW L

NEW YORK, June 21-The amazing
revelation that certain unnamed Negro
leaders" heartily endorsed the policy
Ct segregting Negro enrollees in
Civilian Conservation Camps is con-
tanned in a.lstter received last week
by the National Association for the
Advancement Of Colored People
from Robert Fechner, Director of
Emergency Conservation Work, at
Washington. D. C.
Replying to a previous letter from
Roy Wilkins, assistant Secrstary Of
the NAACP., protesting against Sc
gregated educational classes at Camp
Wilson, East Barre, Vermont, where
there are some 500 colored e~x-service
men, Mr. Fechner defended the jim
crow policy, declaring that This is a
matter solely under the control of the
camp educational adviser.
Leaders" Agreed to Segregation

continues, chat from the beginning
Of Emergency Conservation Work it
vas felt desirable to segregate white
snrollees, Negro enrollees and war
veterans in separate camps. A num-
Der of representative Negro leaders
conferred with me on this matter and
thay were in hearty accord with the
policy. | believe it has worked out in
a generally satisfactory manner. It is
true that there are a few CCC units
IN which a small number of Negro
enrollees are mixed with an over
whelming number of white enrollees
However, the general policy was
against this practice"
Aroused by this betrayal Of the
race by leaders" supposed to pro
tect its interests, Mr.. Wilkin HAS
again written Mr.. Fechner asking fol-
the names Of the Negroes who "wers
IN hearty accord with the policy" IL
order that their identity may be made
known to the colored people of the
United States.
Commencing on the Fechner re.
~velation. Mr.. Wilkins declared the
discrimination in educational work a
the Vermont camp was the direct anc
inevitable result of agreeing to any
form of segregation in the beginning
Any time you agree to accept any
one form of segregation" he said
