General Walsh setting up

violation of announced policy of
Indignation. In view Of imminent
draft deadline, Negro citizens of
Minnesota are faced with dilem-
ma of accepting Jim Crow pat
tern or losing privileges open to
all other citizens under provisions
of selective service law. Only
sound solution is Immediate iSsu-
ance your proposed order to &C

qualification without quota or
segregation. AS Mayor of Mime
apolis l fully support your posi-
ton and urge Immediate action. "
Citizens Support
Many other groups and lndl-
vIduals have spoken in behalf of
the Governors proposal, several
others sending wires to that effect.
Action by the Minnesota AVG,
Ramsey County Leglonnaires, the
Community Of Hopkins and other
groups indicates that public opin-
ion is in favor of the proposed ex-
ecutive order.
Hesitancy at issuing this order
is due to fear that federal funds
will be withheld, according to the
Governors Office. That such
would happen seems greatly
doubted by most people who favor
the order, however, They do not
feel that a Washington admins
tration also pledged to the remov-
al of armed forces segregation
would allow the Army Depart
ment to go so far in upholding
Jim Crowism.

Picket Lines Are
Embarrassing to
COP Convention
BY William O'ShieIds

Philadelphia (ANP) - think
the COP conventions most en-
barrassing event started Tuesday
when some 80 pickets led by A.
Philip Randolph and Oscar Brown
marched in a circle in front of
Philadelphia's famous Convention
hall, where the Republicans
picked their presidential candi-
date.
Each picket carried a hurriedly
printed sign with words, l know,
that were face-reddening to the
dyed-in-the-wool Republicans.
Many of the signs were in
scribed with the following: I'VE
want race equality" Republican
sit-down strike on civil rights"
IF we must die, let us die as free
men," Republican congress aids
communism by fostering jim
crow army" THE elephant is
afraid of race prejudice" and mo
LIST class dying for End class citi-
zenship."
After l had stood there for
few minutes watching the situa-
ton as a whole, l finally mar
rowed my focus down to indivi-
duals. The amazement with which
the delegates and visitors enter
ing convention hall reacted to
the signs carried by an interrac-
ial group of pickets could be hid
den. 1t showed not only on their
faces, but in their actions as well.
Many stopped to read all the
signs as the pickets passed them,
while others clumsily felt their
way up the steps and through the
doors still glancing backward as
if to say, well, I'll be damned"
l inched myself close up to a
fellow from Texas to listen to
what he was saying to his fellow
conventioner. q say Texas be-
cause he had on one Of those
Stetson Three x Beaver hats. He
