 Mrs Hermann conferred with members of the local Cancer Com mittee during a visit to Palmer a few weeks ago. She was highly pleased with the great interest displayed locally through the dis appearance" of hundreds of can cer education pamphlets, which have ben placed in strategic spots throughout Palmer for that very purpose.
 Mrs. Wilson, the local chair man, is confidant that the com munity will respond nobly to this first appeal for funds for the Can cer Crusade. Many individuals, she reports, have expressed their appreciation of what the crusade means to them and to their famil ies and have asked for an oppor- tunity to help. The Cancer Cru sade has a very personal appeal because almost everyone has a near one who has been helped or might have been helped through the education and medical treat ment it makes possible.

ATA President 10 Talk in Palmer On
 Market Opportunities

Amos J. Heacock, President of Air Transport Associates will be in Palmer some time next week to discuss opportunities for eX- port of Alaskan-made products to Stateside markets, it was an- nounced today.
 MT. Heacock is particularly in- terested in talking with people who have typical Alaskan pro- ducts to sell-Alaskan jams and jellies, Alaskan birch and alder products. At the present time he is in the Homer area making ar engagements for the air shipment of fresh seafood to the States.
 He says that the current fight for Alaskan statehood has devel- oped an unsuitable interest in things Alaskan. There's a tremen- dous opportunity to build up Out side markets for budding home industries in Alaska, he insists, and Alaskans should capitalize on it.
 If time permits, a special Cham Der of Commerce meeting will be called to give local people an op- portunity to talk with Mir. Hea- cock about these marketing pos abilities. Anyone interested may stop in at Betty's or the Frontiers man early next week to learn the exact time of the ATA presidents visit.

Negroes Active A.
Demo Convention
BY VERNON JARRETT

Chicago. - (ANP) - Negroes
were influential in effecting de-
cisions on most of the important
issues acted upon at the 3Oth
quadrennial convention OF the
Democratic party which met for
one week in the International
Ampitheatre here.
Among the issues which pro-
duced heated discussions at the
convention were those OF seating
delegates from Texas and Louis
lana, the drawing up of an ac-
ceptable civil rights plank, and
the nomination of a candidate for
the presidency.
Negroes were among the Texas
and Louisiana delegates who lost
their battle TO be seated at the
convention. These delegates were
supporting the pro-Truman fac
ton, while the delegations which
were seated supported the anti
Truman groups.
This battle over credentials de-
layed progress of the convention
for some time.
Efforts to produce an accept
able civil rights plank saw much
behind the scenes maneuvering
among the various delegates.
Actively working for a strong
civil rights plank were Adam
Clayton Powell. representative,
N, Y; William Dawson, represen-
tative, Ill; J. Raymond Jones and
Hulan Jack. both Of New York.
Delegates seeking strong
civil rights plank turned down
the first one drawn up. They con-
sidered 1t too vague and therefore
unsatisfactory.
A caucus was then called to
write a new pank. The new plank
was considered acceptable by most
of the delegates However, there
were some who stiu considered il
too vague. Among this latter
group were Powell and Sen. HUI
bert Humphrey of Minnesota, a
presidential aspirant.
The plank as included in the
party platform eliminated any
direct reference to FEPC or clio
ture, but inferred to them. This
was considered by many as con-
cession to the South.

convention was of course the
selection of a nominee to carry
the party's banner in the fall cleo
tons.
Negroes were actively working
in the camps of most Of the lead
ing contenders.
Probably the most active work
er for w. Averell Hartman, mu-
tual security administrator, was
Mrs. Oritho Brooks, head of the
civil rights section of the Harri-
man headquarters.
Mrs. Brooks staff was inter
racial and occupied a swank suite
in the Conrad Hilton hotel. 1t was
the site of many behind the scenes
maneuvers by the New York dele
cation which was strongly behind
Hartman.
Among the frequent visitors at
this suite were Rep. Powell, J.
Raymond Jones, Hulan Jack, Paul
Cline, Powell's public relations
man; George Bailey and Ivan
Michael, all of New York.
Actively working for Sen. Estes
Kefauver were Joseph Albright.
and William T. Mcknight, a class
mate of Kefauver at Yale in the
class of 81.
Among the hostesses at Kefau-
ver's headquarters at the Conrad
Hilton, were three attractive
lasses. They were:
