Mr.. Nixon said the discussion at
the conference revealed that fears
of reprisals and outbreaks in the
South, where anti-discrimination
policies were invoked, proved to be
unfounded where top management
of companies moved in a firm and
straightforward manner.
He declared that the success ex-
perienced by certain companies in
the South in doing away with job
discrimination perhaps is fair
indication of what we may expecte
when the school Indignation pro-
gram goes into effect in these
areas"
Mr.. Nixon declared there is "still
long way to go" before job dis
elimination is ended. But he said
that, in view of what was revealed
at the conference, he felt that Sub
stantial progress" has been made
and that the Administration is on
the right road in trying to &C
complish the task by persuasion.

Declaring that the groups were
meeting "as friends in order
to be as frank and helpful as pos
sible," Mitchell said that recent
surveys conducted in four states
by a government agency indicate

gress to make"
Job orders with discriminatory
provisions are still coming into
the local public employment Of
fees. In addition, it is common
knowledge that discrimination is
also practices in recruitment out
side the public system"
Mitchell, said that perhaps the
problem which we face today is
more difficult to detect, harder to
eradicate, and more challenging
than plain discrimination in hiring.
Types of Jobs
He said: at may be primarily
discrimination in promoting, de-
noting and transferring-the clos
ing of certain classifications or
types of jobs to members of par

OR CHRIST"
When the Negroes were slaves in
the South,
The white man had full control
But God changed the sale of the
Negroes,
Now he is on the payroll.
God put the black man on the pay
roll
So the bottom rail has gotten to
the top
God took the black man out of the
mud
Also out of the share crop.
There is one thing l will ask God
to do,
Take the preachers out of politics
Go preach the gospel said the Lord
And stay out of the world and her
tricks.
We have the highest job on earth
Lifting up our redeeming Christ
We haven't got time for politics
And no other business life.
If we would only love our race
Then God could use the man
Stop paying your way to hell today
Trying to get you different
stand.
Stand up for Jesus Christ today
Lift Him up everywhere you go
He gave His life to save all who
believe on Him
He stands at Heavens door.
How can we save a soul for Christ
And won't derive ourselves
You run a revival to save the sin
ner
He is paying you, do you know?
Jesus said for US to be also as I am
Did Jesus charge the man? No,
All who believe on Him,
In His kingdom you may stand.
There are lots for US to sell and
know,
And yet we are passing them by
Do you think we will be able to
stand the test
On the day we come to die?
I am afraid some of US are making
a mistake
Putting the price on the souls of
men,
The Bible says for US to go into
all the world
And preach the gospel from land
to land.
