PLEA FOR full FREEDOM


ana gains WHICH WOULD eLldI1dLG
from these Human and Civil
Rights, many are driven to crime,
RIGHTEOUSNESS and illegitirnate
business because such rights are
denied them.
At this moment, concerted eff
forts are underway to bolt or Off
set any attempt to renonlinate
President Truman for reelection,
or anyone else for President who
would endorse strict, efull Civil
Rights and F.E.P.C. measures.
Not exaggerating is the predic-
ton that if Christ were to come
to the United States and visit
certain Southern communities
and endorse the Human and Civil
Rights program, the wild cry
would be, Cruelty Him! Stone
Him! Take Him away! He is for
social equality He is for justicel"
These are the popular questions
which have been ringing recently
in the ears of millions: Why has
the Southern press been reluctant
or even silent with its editorials
censoring the sneaking manner
of taking the lives of the late
Harry T. Moore and his wife,
Harriet? Why hasn't some Sou
thern Governor or Congressman
denounced this merciless, mali
cious deed? The failure to do so
is clear. Because Moore, an in
telligent, fearless colored man,
100 per cent loyal, represented
an Organization W hich is the
strongest and the most militant
agent in the world defending
democracy, inseparably linked
with Human Rights. Besides,
shall one man have comfort,
enough food, clothing, shelter and
the other man forced to be in
want Of these? Indeed, no! Yet,
denying these colored Americans
these God-given rights means
just that.
The following true story is
quite suitable to point out the
great need of spiritual and moral
power to support the application
of Human Rights commanded by
Christ: After an aged, ragged,
hungry, native Chinese woman
had been given shelter and food
by q missionary, she inquired in
amazement, "Why do you bother
with me when no one else cares"
Replied the missionary, "Be-
cause God made you and God
made me" The missionary fur
Their told her, ''We go over the
world and help others who need
help" This Chinese woman, with
great surprise, asked, where is
this God?" Replied the mission
airy, "He was here ninteen hun
bred years ago" The Chinese
woman TIL e n replied, 'Ninteen
AnAAQ4 Gu years dESs AA~ ~o@@-
! manded His followers to spread
. this beautiful idea of love for
man. Then where have you
! Christians been all the ninteen
: hundred years? Why haven't
they done what Christ said?"
: This Chinese woman gave the
absolute correct answer why we
: still have jim Grow, wars, he'll,
> fear, dishonesty, ugliness, and
divisions instead of Human
r Rights, beauty, unity, love and
? peace.
Now then, Mr.. American, if you
: ask yourself, when is an Amer
: lean not 4 saboteur, or when
! is he a true, friend to democracy
/, and the Christian religion" An
? swer, "Only when he accepts
! every other American on terms
of enjoying equal liberties and
protection which he himself en-
Joys, no more no less"

By the Assoeiofed Press

NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 15.-Gov.
Allan Shivers Of Texas, chairman
Of the Southern Governors con-
ference, said today there probably
will be an informal" discussion
Of a political coalition between
conservative" Democrats of the
South. Southwest and Midwest.
Sixteen Governors began as
sembling here for three-day con-
ference beginning tomorrow, their
first get-together since the ma
tional election.
While the formal program calls
for discussion on education, nat
ural resources and other admins
trative topics, Gov. Shivers told
newsmen that he had in mind a
sort Of working agreement between
the conservatives" and middle
of-the-road" Democrats in the
South, Southwest and Midwest.
Still a Democrat
He referred to those who already
had evidenced friendly feeling
toward each other during the po-
litical conventions and the preSi-
Dental campaign.
Gov. Shivers, who was elected
governor on a Democratic ticket
but supported Gen. Eisenhower for
the presidency, said he was "still
IA Democrat" although his State
gave the COP candidate a ma
jority of more than 100000 votes.
The Texas Governor said the
Eisenhower victory was "a per-
sonal triumph, not a Republican
victory as such. and the majority
of the voters showed they were
against Truman and everything
he stands for"
OF the 16 States to be repre-
sented at the governors confer

a majority of their votes.
3 Dixie Governors Meet.

In an apparent reference to the

"Mr. Slack was either unwilling
or unable to inform the subcom-

7 Killed, Is Injured
On Jersey Turnpike
In Second Day Of Fog
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

NEWARK, N. j., Nov. 15.-An
almost impenetrable fog caused a
nightmare Of death and injury
on the high speed New Jersey
Turnpike early today in seven diff
ferent chain reaction smashups
involving nearly 40 cars.
Two Young sailors were killed
in the worst tangle of 16 vehicles,
and IS persons in all were injured
badly enough to be taken to hos
pitals. OF the injured. two were
in critical condition.
The sailors killed were identi-
fed as Rene L. Legendre. 81, Of
New York, who had been stationed
at Little Creek Naval Base, near
Norfolk, Va, and a companion,
Yeoman 1/c John Natalie, 81. of
Newport, Va.
State police said Mr.. Legendre's
car rammed the back of a truck
and caught fire.
Closed for Five Hours.
The crashes were the second
series in less than "a hours, and
the entire northern part Of the
118-mile toll road-about IS miles
long-was closed down to all traf-
f1c for nearly five hours.
Yesterday morning, two men
were killed and seven persons hos
pitalized in two separate fog
induced pileups that blocked both
north and southbound lanes for
time in Kearny, just north of
here. Twenty-Five vehicles. in
cluding a bus. were involved.
State police said the fog rolled
in over most of the northern sec
ton about midnight last night.
The first big pileup was reported
at 12:47 am.
AS the night wore on, more and
more blinded motorists and truck
ers slammed into each other be-
tween here and Elizabeth, just to
the south. Another pileup oc-
CURED north of here in Secaucus.
Finally the total number Of jams
reached seven.
The fog was so thick that po-
Hcemen could hardly keep their
patrol cars on the Six-lane high
way, even when travelling at S.
miles an hour. In some cases, a
policeman had to get out and
walk in front of the car to lead the
driver.
Motorists MarOOned.
Tow trucks and ambulances had
great difficulty finding the acci-
dent scenes. Motorists who
stopped and left their stalled
autos were Immediately swallowed
up in the mist and often couldn't
find their way back. Their cries
for help mingled with the walls
of ambulance sirens and increased
the confusion.
Electric signs setting the speed
limit at IS miles per hour were
turned on along the road, which
slaSheS diagonally across the en-
tire State. But they couldn't be
seen a few feet away. The normal
speed limit is so miles per hour.
The shutdown came soon after.
