TIE. l-0S84 & S

What services does an auto club
have to offer?
l will attempt to name some Of
them-the main ones, anyway.
First, it tries 70 make collection
from the other party for the dam
age he or she may do to a members
car.
Then in the legal department. free
legal representation is given when
case is taken to court. and free
legal advice to members on mat
ters pertaining to their automobiles.
And il, in the opinion Of its at
torney, a meritorious defense ex-
lists, the legal department will I'M
dertake the defense Of members for
alleged violation OF traffic ordi-
nances.
Then there is the road service
department which gives free road
service day or night in any city in
the country. such as changing tires,
providing you have an inflated
spare; starting your car. If possible;
towing-you may have your car
lowed into nearest official garage
in case OF a wreck or inability to
start, pay towing charges, II it does
not happen to be one OF the clubs
garages, and have same charged TO
the club; one gallon Of gas will be
brought 10 you, enabling you 70
proceed 10 a gas station, il you
pay for the gas, as the service is
free.
Next, IS the touring department
which gives you free detailed tour
ing information. road maps and logs
for towns throughout the United
States and Canada
For instance. if you are planning
trlp TO New York, and club Is
consulted, it will give you the near
est anc best routes leading to that
particular place. And now, a list
Of hotels and guest houses. in all
parts Of the country, IS available
to colored tourists.
And last, but not least, is the
license plates service which the club
renders TO its members. This service
especially zones IN good at the
time OF the rush for license plates,
when you may have to stand IN line
a long time before being taken care
Of, and through the 'ervice Of the
club you can avoid this, saving
yourself valuable time.
You may see for yourself that
such cordial, intelligent cooperation
IS an extremely valuable aid to
motorists,
There are so many more services
that an auto club renders that, II
would be lr1pc ssible to mention all
1 them al this time However. the
ones named are the most important,
and / VIII enlarge upon the others
at some future date.

CIVIL RIGHTS
GROUP HOSTS

Discuss Civil Liberties In

Attendance

Emphasis was placed last week
upon civil rights as the American
people interpret the phrase as the
Civil Rights Federation OF Detroit

races answer its call TO a state con-
ference. The sessions were held on
Friday evening and all day Sat-

Cass Technical high school and the
Book Cadillac hotel
Negro Congress Head Speaks
At the opening session Of the con-
ference held in the auditorium Of
Cas- Technical high school Friday
evening. John p. Davis. executive
secretary Of the National Negro
congress addressed the delegates
and others present on the subject
minority Groups and Civil Rights"
Davis emphasized the impor' ance
OF guarding our civil Liberties with
eternal vigilance indicted
fact that an infringement upon the
civil liberties Of a Negro did not
mean, merely, that the rights Of a
Negro had been denied 20 a Negro
but also was indicative Of the fact
that the rights OF white men were
subject TO the same type Of denial
AS an example Of this truth Davis
pointed out the abuse of the fran
chise in the South. stating that
along with the TAI white primary,
(b) grandfather clauses. (c) and poll
taxes, not only the greater percent
age were rendered almost without
franchise. but millions Of poor
whites" as we'll
The denial Of rights to a Negro
is or ultimately will mean the same
denial 10 all common people," Davis
sverred, because the Negro is but
the index to the temper Of Civil
Rights over the country. The pres
ent attack on the rights Of some
OF the citizens OF the United States
is but an expression Of the existence
OF a bureaucratic minority seeking
TO maintain a stranglehold upon the
lives OF free citizens.
Concluding, Davis. in the words
OF Frederick Douglass, averred that
progress cannot be made without
a fight, that it has and never will
be.
