.... -Isaiah 1871. ~.
He is despised and rejected

Surely he hath borne our
griefs, and carried our sorrows:
Yet we did esteem him

NEW YORK - A non-parti-
san political action campaign de-
signed to increase registration
and voting among Negro citizens
and an all-out legal attack against
segregation in public elementary
and secondary school are cited as
the highlights of the years &C.
tivity of the National Associa-
ton for the Advancement Of
Colored People in a year-end re-
port released today by Walter
White, executive secretary.
The first of these, the political
action campaign, was launched
early in the year. At a meeting
in Jacksonville, Fla, in January,
a program was devised for nom
partisan drive to double the
number of registered Negro vot-
ers in the southern states. More
concrete action was planned in
Atlanta in April, at a political
action institute where emphasis
was placed on training workers
in the techniques of organization
registration and voting drives.
The NAACP also reports that
it sent its top officers to both the
Republican and Democratic ma
tional conventions to present pro-
posals for strong civil rights
blanks and TO work for inclusion
Of these planks in party plat
forms. In addition, the voting
records Of all members Of the
82nd Congress on matters per-
tanning to civil rights were pub
lished for the guidance Of voters.
Several paid field workers and
countless. volunteer workers were
active in the vote drive.
Following the November pres
idential election, a compilation of
the Negro cote in 48 cities was
published by the Association.
THE EDUCATION CASES
Statistics on the vote in predom-
inantly Negro wards and pre-
cincts were gathered through
uuestionnaires sent to persons In
key areas, and through newspaper
clippings.
On the legal front, Mr.. Whites
statement notes, the big news for
1852 was the full scale attack on
segregation in public, elementary
and secondary schools, culminat-
ing in the presentation of five
precedent SCATTERING cases before
the United States Supreme Court
earlier this month. Four OF these
cases - involving segregation OF
Negro pupils in the schools OF
Clarendon County, SC; Topeka,
Kans.; Prince Edward County,
Va; and a suburb of Wilmington,

Vote Drive, School Cases,
NAACP Highlights In 1852

White said, members and friends
of the NAACP carried a heavy
weight in their hearts - the as
sassination of Harry T. Moore in
that Christmas night blast that
wrecked his home and killed the
Florida NAACP leader and his
gallant wife. Harry and Harriette
Moore were casualties in the con-
tinuing battle against bigotry and
discrimination. We of the NAACP
felt their loss very keenly and re-
dedicated ourselves to the struggle
to achieve the goal for which they
died"
Also mourned by the Associa-
ton was DR.. Louis T. Wright, dis
tinguished surgeon and chairman
of the NAACP board of directors
for 20 years. DR.. Wright, who
was surgical director and chair
man of the medical board of Har-
lem Hospital at the time of his
death on October 8, was known
throughout the world for his con-
tribution to medical research and
to the cause Of human rights. The
NAACP will conduct a Louis T.
Wright memorial membership
campaign in 1853.

II PAYS To Advertise

Senior Rafael del Vizo, known in
Havana where he is top-hight
radio commentator as Siboney,
dropped into the office the other
day and offered a few thoughts
on the Key West tourist situation
which we're extremely interesting.
Mr.. del Vizo, who broadcasts
over emo, Cuba's top station, has
an idea that it would not be a
bad deal for the City of Key West
to do a little advertising in Havana
In an attempt to lure Cuban
tourists who are in the habit of
spending their vacations in Mia
mi, to the city,.
When Americans 60 to Cuba,
they usually buy a couple of mar
acas, their quota Of rum and that
is it. But, when Cubans come to
this country they arrive here load
ed with money and in buying
mood.
Everything from teIevision sets
10 automobiles are purchased.
Miami has been getting just about
all Of the business and there is.
Siboney feels, no reason why a
little Of this commerce could not
be funneled into this city.
An example of the magnitude of
their spending is the fact that
Cuban tourists spent S56, 00O, 900
last year in this country.
Now that the county Commits
sion has some money in their
budget for advertising, little Of
it might be well spent in Havana.
It'd pay off.
And the city's merchants, who
stand to gain no little revenue By
such promotion, might band to-
gether and try to figure out ways
and means to promote the city as
a mecca for Cubans.
Besides, they are nice people to
have around.
Charter Chatter
For the benefit Of folks who are
wondering Just what is in the city
charter that we have been hear
ing so much about of late we'd
like TO suggest that the city faith
ers donate at least one of the
dozen odd copies that are lying
around the city hall to the Public
Library so that local citizens
could refer TO ii and see what
makes the city tick.
OF course. II those who would
like to see il tossed out in favor

long on the history shelf.

so, apparently, did some members
Of Congress. The Navy, now under

mind, decided to add a billet in

cations for the man to fill that

Agreement Reached
To End 6-Day Strike
|0f Dock Specialists
By the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Jan. Federal
mediators early today announced
an agreement to end the six-day
strike of AFL dock specialists
which once threatened a major
East Coast shipping tieup.
Mediator John A. Burke, after
a negotiating session which
started yesterday, said COM
promise wage settlement had
been agreed to between three
small locals of the AFL Interna-
tional Longshoremen's Associa-
ton and the employers group,
the American Weighmasters' AS
sociation. He said the agree
ment is subject to membership
ratification later today.
Mr.. Burke said the agreement
on new contract running until
the end of this year calls for a
32-cent-an-hour package wage
increase. The unions originally
had asked AZ cents and the en-
ployers had offered Is cents.
Wages prior to the agreement
ranged from $1.87 to 1920 an
hour.
The three locals involved rep
resent weighers. scalesmen and
samplers. These men handle
such bulk cargoes as sugar and
hides, weighing and checking
them on the docks to make sure
they meet weight and quality
specifications.
Last Friday other lila men,
bers honored the 500 strikers
picket lines, and more than so
active piers here were closed
down. Some other East Coast
ports also were affected.
This week, however, the
strikers relaxed picketing tactics
and operations were almost nor
NAL.
lila President Joseph P. Ryan,
who attended the mediation ses-
sions. called the contract terms
a very satisfactory settlement"
Mr.. Ryan said the vote on the
contract would be held at an
unspecified hour today. He pre-
dicted that most of the men
would be back on their jobs dur
ing the day.
