a political party have recourse
secret financial loan curtail-
ment, the writer is forced to
admit a brother on the out
side informed him.
When the facts are placed
in the writer's hands, 1t is
understood many faces will be
red with shame and wonder
how such an underhanded ra-
cial political Strategem could
take place in America includ-
ing segregation in defiance Of
who is marrieS to singer Hazel
Scott and cOmmutes between
Harlem and Washington. Daw-
son has accused Powell of STIR
ring up the civil rights issue
for personal publicity cOlOred
people have already made ire
mendOuS progress and shouldn't
spoil it.
2. Powell not only boycott
ted the Democratic cOnven-
ton but is secretly consider
ing a bolt to the Republicans.
He has sounded out Vice Pre-
Sident Nixon and White House
Aide Max Rabb about desert
ing the Democratic ticket -
if the Democrats wage a luke
warm civil rights campaign.
In fact, Powell put in writing
to Vice President Nixon that
he is "ready and willing" to
campaign for an Eisenhower
Nixon ticket.
3. The third COlOred Con-
gresham, DetrOit'S Charles
Diggs, isn't contemplating any
thing so drastic. But he has
threatened privately that he
won't campaign for the De-
mOcrats unless they come out
fighting for civil rights.
4. COIOred leaders have re-
ceived word that Attorney
General BrOwnell, in a play
for cOlOred votes, will indict
several election officials in
Mississippi for refusing the
right to vote.
EFFECTIVE BULLSEYE
RANGE
The above has political
significance, but does not
strike the bulls-eye effectively,
whe nit is reported the first
of the present year, the Com
monwealth of Massachusetts,,
including Boston has been in
vaded by a drastic loan racial
mortgage curtailment.
New and additional loan ra-
cial applicants have been re-
legated to long waiting lists
and in many instances turned
down without any reason. An
offhand explanation, is lack
Of investment loan capital,
which any white applicant
can bypass. A local veterans
organization has also been re-
ported a victim securing a
loan to renovate its head
quarters, because of this vici-
GUS financial loan tangle. Bos-
toms mayor, John B. Hynes
recent decision to funk over
300 delapidated dwellings in
the Hub has made matters
worse for colored citizens to
buy a home or rent an apart
ment;
The following report from
san Francisco'S COP, ma
tional convention should be
given wide acclaim, when the
platform plank on civil-rights
prescribes elimination of ra-
cial segregation in public
schools with all deliberate
speed. This should be done To-
cally through Federal courts.
The elimination of racial Sc
gregation must be attained
through intelligent study, I'M
derStanding and good will.
The above was to the point
and without equivocationl It
is believed millions of colored
voters will cast ballots re-
pudiating the EASTLAND
standard of White Supremacy
in the November Presidential
election. The nationwide ra-
cial financial loan curtailment
injustice, now mounting should
also be rebuked as an I'm
American calamitous economic
political monstroSity!
Summarizing the current po-
Iitical gamut, we conclude
both dominant parties are al
most in accord that racial
economic security, is greater
than civil riPhtSi
