the report stated that requests pre-
sented to the officials on the grave
issues of discrimination had become
so begged down in technicalities
and red tape that the effect OF
recognition remains far from that
expected.
The committee also noted the
widespread use of examinations for
promotions which is now being
pressed by the Administration. I'm
der this program many minority
group employees, hitherto blocked
from positions above the clerical
or distributor level, now have hopes
for recognition of their abilities as
they merit. Even this program re-
quires careful watching due to the
highly flexible manner in which
credits are given for previous SUI
pervisory service.
In reference to the postmasters
dismissed, the committee felt that
attitudes of postmasters and local
officials, as reflected in grievance
cases on file in the headquarters
of the National Alliance of Postal
Employees, demonstrated a reluct-
ance to comply with White House
and Departmental policy on fair
employment procedure.
President Cobb cited incidents
of mail truck carriers assaulted by
local police officers in southern
areas. In such cases, local post
masters recorded the incidents as
unfavorable in the assaulted en-
ployee's record. Furthermore, he
pointed out that efforts of local
Alliance personnel to establish the
fact of invasion of civil rights were
met by hostility of these officials.
President Cobb further stated in

even mixed up the Civil Rights

Of Governor Stevenson, Jack
says:
Eyes, we need a new America
guided by man of courage, a
man of vision, a man who has
openly proclaimed what new
America needs, a man of destiny
with a strong and steady hand to
steer the ship of state in the
troubled waters of the world"
One distinguished member of the
Garden audience who applauded
Jack wildly was Adlai Stevenson
admirer Tallulah Bankhead, who
earlier had appeared on the pro-
gram at the Rally. Miss Bankhead
was seated in box with the Rev.
James Robinson of Harlem. Like
the rest of the audience, she liked
heartily Hulan Jacks unique brand

fervor.

lions affiliated with the National
Council Of Negro Women met to
consider policies and to recommend
q program of action. Their con-
clusion was that "there were many
formidable obstacles in the path
way of augmentation Of the Su-
preme Court Decision of May II,
1864, but none were so great that
they could not be met by coopera-
tive efforts of law abiding, sane,
reasonable and loyal Americans
working together"
On October Is, 1854, heads of
women's organizations met at
Council House at the invitation of
the National Council of Negro Wo-
men to discuss the action that had
been taken by their organizations
following the decision and aspects
of human relations involved in the
maintenance of human and civil
rights.
During 1866, the National Coun-
Gil of Negro Women conducted a
survey of the accomplishments of
women's organizations in establish
ing policies and programs con-
cerned with human and civil rights.
Who is invited: All national wo-
mems organizations concerned with
programs to improve conditions OF
life through religious, educational,
welfare, civic, social, cultural, bus
mess and professional activities.
Among them, the National Council
of Catholic Women, the National
Council of Jewish Women, United

Christian and American principle"
During debate on the issue, H.
Odelle Harmon, Superintendent of
Schools in Lexington, KY, told the
delegates that the Christians of
the South twill not accept inte-
grated schools and churches"
Describing himself as a "Chris-
rian segregationist," Mr.. Harmon
asserted that at seems strange
to the people of the southland that
our northern brethren have waited
until 1866, approximately 100 years
after the war between the states,
to begin admitting a few Negroes
to their churches"
"Yet they are always ready to
criticize the South for having seq
regated congregations, he added.
81 do not believe that segregation
is basically a religious question.
| know that God created man and
in so doing, he made one white,
one black, one yellow and one red.
We do not know why God created
US thus, but we do know that it
was DONE"
The convention finally approved
Statement of human relations"
adopted five years ago by it's board
of social missions and the church's
executive board.
The statement declared that
Christian brotherhood ais impeded
by practices enforcing segregation"
and added:
"God calls for, and human JUS
tice requires, speeding changes at
every level and in every area of
society"
The convention also called on it's
congregation to exercise Chris
tian patience and understanding"
in working for the realization of
its 1851 goal.
"Our congregations are encour-
aged to contribute TO the solution
of the problem (segregtaion) by
demonstrating in their own cor
porate lives the possibility of inte-
grafton" it added.

introduced by New York Mayor
Wagner, Jack received a hearty
tribute from the Mayor who spoke
of the Negro Borough President as
a capable administrator" and "a
man who | was proud to have sue
coed me in the office of Borough
President of Manhattan when |
went to City Hail."
Jack is one of the Democrats
most potent guided missiles in this
campaign. The very nature of the
top position he holds-unprecedent-
ed for one of his race in the nation
is significant argument in it
self that the Party is Civil Rights
conscious. And Jack himself, al
though he hits hard on racial is
sues, is quite competent to expound
all the Party arguments.
One effective bit which he used
at the recent Harlem Rallay tor
Stevenson and which he again en-
ployed at the Garden in his sharp
shooting at Republican claims of
peace, prosperity and progress.
On the prosperity question, Jack
shouts: prosperity for who? Have
you been able to save any extra
money from the small take-home
pay you receive? Have your taxes
been reduced ?"
His audiences thunder a re-
sounding negative chorus.
Progress" Jack sneers. what
kind of progress? Where is it?
Has anyone seen it? Maybe you
can find it on a golf course some
where in Washington"
AS for peace, he points to trou-
bled Indo- China, the Middle East,
demands what happened to the
peace promised after the Geneva
Conference ?"
At the Garden meeting last
night, Jack made an oblique but
biting reference to Congressman
Adam Clayton Powell, Harlem
Democrat now campaigning for
President Eisenhower's reelection.
He called Powell a CRUSADER for
Hire"

fishes and birds are of FLESH
peculiar to their kind-so He has
also drawn the lines of demare-
alton between the black and white
races. A great segment, if not the
ajority, of the Negro population
of the south does not desire inte-
grafton"
The article says further:
"The American Baptist Associa-
ton represents only small part
of the Baptists of America, but
these arguments are quite common
and they deserve investigation
The author goes on to say that
first God does not say that he
created the races distinct from one
another, instead, he says that they
are all one, 'Eve-was the mother
of all living Of the three sons
of Noah was the whole earth over
spread"
Quoting further the writer say:
"God hath made of one blood al
nations of men," He added:
when such differences arise, be
tween what men have said ant
what the Bible says, whom do you
believe, God or men," The Bible
references are Genesis 1920; 9:19
Acts 1926.
Continuing the author says "Th'
Bible does not say that God scat
tered men because they began t
integrate. The scattering was a
Babel, and all the men there were
of the same general family any
way, this being only short time
after the flood. Indignation wa!
not the issue; false religion was,
He adds:
"When the men at Babel went tt
build US a city and tower, whose
NAV reach unto heaven; and
make US a name, lest we be scat
tered abroad upon the face of th'
whole earth, then God divided false
worshippers, not according to color
but according to language. So again

segregationists' claim. Genesl

The Baptists' resolution claims
"All flesh is not the same flesi
and Just as animals, fishes anC
birds are of a flesh popular t.
their kind so He has also drawn thu
lines of demarcation between thu
black and write races" On thi:
claim the author says:
But | Corinthians 1889 says
| There is one kind Of flesh of men
another flesh of beasts On it!
face this text disprives the Ameri
can Baptists' argument. 1t says
there is one kind of flesh of men.
The author of the article say:
there is 'one kind of flesh of men,
not two kinds as these people say
Again( whom will you believe, He
or man?
The author of the article says
whether colored people in large
numbers favor segregation or not
has no effect on whether God car
be blamed for segregation.

preme Court decision barring seq
regation in public schools as being
"in harmony with Christian con-
victions."
The refusal-by vote of $40 to
159-came during the final hours
of the church's week-long twen-
tieth biennial convention. After
the count was taken, the Rev. DIR.
Franklin Clark Fry, president of
the denomination, demanded that
his name be formally recorded in
the minutes as opposing the action
taken.
During the hour-long debate on
the proposal, most of its opponents
asserted that the church had no
business to judge Government &C
tivities nor the right to differ
with or support" the Supreme
Court They held that the court
acted on legal rather than on Chris
tidH principles.
Others, representing Southern
congregations, argued that the
court had no right to rule on pub
lie school Indignation.
The United Lutheran Church by
its action became, so far as can
be determined, the first major re-
ligious body to withhold its bless
ing from the 1854 court decision.
The church's own summary of
the Indignation problem, placed in
the hands of the delegates some
weeks ago; noted that the Su-
preme Court decision had met with
almost universal approval on the
part of Christian and Jewish
groups"
The summary said the Metho-
dists, Southern Baptists, Congre-
gationalists, Presbyterian and E.
piscopalians had all endorsed the
court ruling.
