Firm Explains Ad
In Daily Paper

A full-page color ad which used
racial stereotype as it's theme,
inserted by a Twin City savings
and loan association was immed-
lately cancelled from subsequent
issues when the firm was apprised
OF its bad public relations.
The Minneapolis Savings and
Loan Association, the firm In
question. n longtime advertiser
in this paper. made the following
statement:
1T Is apparent that an adj
vertisement scheduled by us and
published in the Minneapolis
STAR and TRIBUNE Thursday,
December 8, gave offense TO some
Of the people OF the Community
by It's use Of a theme based on a
story which is resented as being
inimical to the progress OF certain
racial groups.
The theme Of our ad was 10
show the various methods Of COM
munication used since the begin
ming OF man until the present. The
ad In question showed how tribal
people use drums TO convey their
messages and was designed TO
show that our firm was appealing
TO the community in similar
way.
THE Minneapolis Savings and
Loan Association did not use the
theme for the purpose of embar-
rasament or TO offend anyone.
III the incident can be consider
ed an error in Judgement we as
sure readers OF this paper that u
was an error OF the head and not
OF the heart.
This company has a large
number OF customers from all
races and creeds and certainly
wish to continue 10 merit their
goodwill and 10 serve them in the
future as we have in the past"

venuon Of the AFL-CIo.
American citizens In Mississip-
pl and elsewhere in the South are
being murdered and nothing Is be-
ing done to protect them by either
the state or Federal govern
ments," Mr.. wilkins said. "and
the excuse OF the Department OF
Justice Is that II has no power TO
act under present civil rights
laws. We must have new civil
rights laws by the Congress and
the proposal to pass a poii tax
amendment ls not enough"
The NAACP secretary dashed
at the failure OF the Department
OF Justice to act In the murder OF
two men who were killed for reg
istering and voting. and In the at
tempted murder, November rs. OF
Gus Courts. Belonzi. Miss, grocer,
for civil rights activity. In COM
menting on the killing OF Emmett
TIL, wilkins said:
The murder OF this boy was In
itself horrible enough 10 warrant
not only the worldwide condem-
nation II received, but the most
exacting execution Of justice. This
II did not receive. But the real
significance OF the TIL murder lies
in the type OF civilization It re-
vealed right here in the United
States, civilization In which
Negro Americans are denied both
their personal and citizenship
rights. including the right to vote.
The Congress cannot dodge
the awful picture revealed by the
TIL boys murder. II must pass
some civil rights legislation with
teeth and II cannot fool the voters
with poll tax amendment"
