Dear Mr.. Bowling:
After two years as member
of the Board of Directors of the
National Urban League, | have
had to conclude that there are
several basic differences between
the policies of the Board and
some of the things in which l
believe. o..
The National Urban League
with its moderate" social work
approach, as it is called by its
leaders. is in reality so cautious
and so slow in action that the
world itself is moving toward
Brotherhood at faster pace.
There is thus a false sense of
accomplishment since everything
that the Urban League claims as
an achievement is not really due
to the Urban Lague. .
The policy of not initiating leg
islative action was understood
when membership on the board
was accepted. l did then and do
now recognize that some objec-
tives can be obtained by other
than militant means. However,
the over-cautious policy of not
giving support by statements or
participation in conferences (other
than as an occasional "observer'D
where programs for Negro ad-
vancement are being formalized,
processed, or activated, is a crit
icism that has more than once
been discussed in Board meetings.
Nothing has been done to cor
rect this reluctance to put the
organization into the vanguard for
Negro advancement.

There is practice of the
League. which has caused me
concern, of giving the League
credit for things that have been
done not as an official action of
the League but in which some
one connected with the League
had an incidental although some
times very slight connection. To
me this is overstretehing a point
in seeking things to be listed as
accomplishments. The actual turn
ing down of the candidacy of
one of Americas great jurists as
board member, only to have
last moment reversal Of policy,
was indicative of the general
trend Of thought of the board
To me it clearly implied that he
was evidently too radical because
he has proven beyond doubt his
belief in true equality.
The program of the National
Urban League in housing is
waste of time. AS head of the
League by coincidence you hap
pen to be among the most In
fluential individuals in the real
estate field in America. You know
the gentelmen'S agreement Of the
real estate interests in regard to
Negro tenancy. You, therefore,
know that nothing can be accom-
plished by such cautious action
as that of the Urban League in
dealing with the parties involv-
ed. Only legislation, which
League is against, coupled with
militant action can crack the bar
rier. 1t is clearly not a field for
the League with its present pol
icy. /
Personally | would be greatly
interested to know how many
board members really would vel
come a Negro Of comparable
character and standing to be their
next door neighbor. All express
sions in board meetings about
housing have been in the alb
Stract or concerning a distant
field. Housing in New York is as
difficult as housing in Bucks
County and | would be glad to
testify on this fact.
incidentally there were several
incidents of the last meeting
which | question. l am still not
clear as to the basis upon which
voting power is granted. Surely
there must be something more
tangible than the qualifications
stated by the Executive Director
at the meeting Is there no writ
ten rule? Is there no credentials
committee? While on the board |
was on no special committee.
However l frequently heard COM
plants of committees meeting
without all the members being
notified. II this Is so, you must
surely realize that such proceed
ures always make possible h
charge that undercover agree
ments have been previously made
