erell Hartman said last week that

powers positively and firmly" to
induce southerners TO comply with
the Supreme Court degeneration
decision

The Governor wrote that "a
president who evades his RESPONSE
bility for bringing about comph-
ance with the nations law violates
his oath of office"
He said further that: 1T is a
tragedy that at this critical time
in our history President Eisen-
hover has not lived up TO his
obligations, or seized the great
opportunities presently afforded
him to inspire a universal desire
for an advance toward new politi-
cal and social justice"

HUMPHREY WIRES NAAcP CONVENTION;
SAYS THERE IS NO ROOM FOR SECOND
CLASS CITIZENS IN UNITED STATES

San Francisco, Calf.-In a tele-
gram greeting to the NAACP ma
tional convention here last week
Senator Hubert Fl. Humphrey
Dem. Mimi asserted:
Il join with you in the fulfill

opportunity for all persons with
out regard TO national origin, col
or, creed or race.

was the guest speaker at a pub
lie meeting sponsored by the In
dependent Voters League of Suf-
folk at East End Baptist church.
She has been a staunch champion
Of the program of the NAACP and
civil rights for Negroes in the
South.
"As colored southerners, Mrs.
Boyle said at the outset, you
have an obligation to yourself,
your group, the whole South, the
nation and the world to set a
standard of what an American
citizen is supposed to be. Why
does this obligation fail on you
II falls on you because the colored
southerner is carrying the ban
ner Of democracy today"
Mrs. Boyle confided to the
audience that until six years ago,
was a typical southerner, which
is to say that I lived in an all
white world. Like most southern
ers, had the warmest feelings to-
ward Negroes, but I accepted the
status quo without the faintest
realization that it was contrary
to the principles which we all
stand for" She gave the NAACP
credit for hberating her. She as
serted:
If it hadn't been for the MA
ACP, I'd stin be in my white
prison. For 1t was through the ad-
mission Of our first Negro student
10 { he University of Virginia,
where my husband teaches, that I
became aware that was really in
prison and that 1 might be able
TO escape"
The speaker said the first thing
she learned after leaving her white
prison was "the modern Negroes
superior grasp Of democracy"
She said "as began 20 know the
educated Negroes in my commun-
ity, I realized that here are the
people who understand the Ameri-
can ideal much better than the
people Of my own group"
Mrs Boyle told her audience
that The modern Negro has a
firm grasp Of the American ideas
which white America has not en-
iOyed since Jeffersonian DAYS.
She praised the progressive Ne
Croes for their current struggle 70
win equality OF opportunity and
treatment under our state and fed
eral government.
Moses Riddick, executive secre-
tsry OF the Independent Voters
League, presided. Eighteen local
leagues affiliated with the hide
pendent Voters League were rep
resented at the meeting.

The Bedrock

Our forefathers came to this
New World seeking a refuge from
political, religious and economic
persecution. Having found that re-
fuge, they wrote into a Declare
ton of Independence, a Constitu-
ton and a Bill of Rights, state
ments of human principles in
terms and content unmatched be-
fore or since by the brain or pen
of man.
Those principles are the bed
rock foundations of our strong and
rich America today. They are
what have made our country the
freest Of all nations, the most
prosperous and strongest econ
omicaIly and the most powerful
on the face Of the globe.

THIS N THAT
BY Hazel Underwood

BE yourself! There is nothing
like il! II you find yourself find
ing flaws in everybody and every
situation, look out! You are telling
the world that you can't measure
up and you are trying to pull
everybody and everything down to
your level Don't do II. wake up
and look at yourself.
You know there are many who
will tear any group. family, club
or affair down II they can't run 1t.
You are only fooling yourself,
everybody knows the answer but
you. Be a good sport, you can't
lead ALL the time. Others can do
as well or better than you II
given a chonce.
Suppose you have been capable
Of doing thing well and you sud-
denly got the idea no one else
could do so well, but when you
were unable to take care of a big
idea you had, the others jumped
in, worked together and made
your past performance look good,
but they did very well. With just
little encouragement from you,
II would have been wonderful. But
no, you were not chosen the leader
so you tried to tear It down.
There is nothing worse in any
group than a disgruntled individ-
ual. II you find you cannot be a
booster, in heavens name get out
and let some one work who is
willing. At one time or another in
most lives the idea creeps in that
we are important. Forget 1t! No
matter who goes out, there is al
ways someone around somewhere
who viii take your place.
II you have done the best you
could you may go, but they will
always remember You fondly.
They win also remember you II
you have been the opposite and
they viii remember you not too
kindly, so BE YOURSELF!
That Is life.
