I wish you a happy Fathers

offered $4,000 to get him out. but
States Atty. John Boyle had
argued against his freedom.
In the district court, Boyle had
argued, that Roe had not yet ex-
hausted all his state remedies be-
fore going to the federal tribunal.
Judge Igoe agreed, but declared:
Even in capital cases the law
says a man is entitled to bail I'M
less evidence of guilt is prepon-
derant. l don't blame the state
attorney for trying to deny bail
He is doing what he considers best
for solution of this street killing.
But if Roe was forced to go to
the other courts for remedy. the
time lost would destroy possible
benefit"
Attorneys for Roe were Joseph
Clayton and John Coghlan.
Roe admits that he killed Cal

Young Bloods," hoods being
groomed to take over the so-called
national crime syndicate, said
to run organized racketeering all

For Editorial


nual convention of the National
Association for the Advancement
of Colored People, which closed
here today was opened at a mass
meeting on June 20, addressed
by NAACP Administrator Roy
Wilkins and DIR. Algernon Black,
chairman of the board of leaders
of the Ethical Culture Society of
New York and a member of the
NAACP board of directors. The
convention was welcomed to the
city by Mayor William B. Harris
field and by DR.. William H.
Borders, pastor of Wheat Street
Baptist church.
Keynoting the convention, Mr..
Wilkins reviewed the record of
the Association and indicated the
future course in combating racial
bigtory, discrimination and segre-
CATION. The NAACP official de-
nounced an editorial appearing in
the Atlanta CONSTITUTION,
which, while welcoming the AS
ISOLATION to the city, charged the
NAACP with "distorting the pic
ture as it exists, for the propa-
ganda effect"
In a challenging reply, Mr..
Wilkins said "the CONSTITU-
TON is not telling the truth. We
don't have to distort the long re-
cord of terror and cheating, of dis
elimination. insult and humilia-
ton and of murder and lynching.
The record speaks for itself. 1t re-
quires no distortion"
He cited that record and the
role of the NAACP in correcting
it. I'VE owe no apology to the
CONSTITUTION or it's editor,
Ralph McGin," he asserted.
Human Relations, the Issue
The issue in America, DR..
Black said, is not of race, but
rather of human relations. Those
who stand for true brotherhood
among all men have to recognize
that the colored people are not
merely asking for equal rights to
education and employment, to de-
cent housing and adequate medi-
cal care" the New Yorker asser-
ted.
The colored people are asking
not merely for the right to vote, -
he said. They are asking for the
rights of Americans. They are
asking for their rights under the
Constitution and the basic moral
principles Of democratic society.
But beyond all this, they are ask
ing for the most important thing
of all: they are asking to belong to
the nation, to be a part of the
human race. They are asking for
these things not because they are
colored, but because they are hui
man
The doctrine of separate but
equal" facilities seldom, If ever,
means equal facilities. But even
where equality is achieved, it is
inadequate. for segregation is a
denial of brotherhood. II is re-
lection. It is Illustration of the
deep hunger for unity. for oneness,
for true belonging to the larger
community of which we are all a
part"
The NAACP, Or. Black con-
cluded, " is an organization of
citizens, an agency for Americans
