Membership Drive
Gets Underway

The 81. Paul Branch OF the Ma
uonal Association for the Ad-
vancement OF Colored People has
commenced a mammoth member
ship campaign for the year 1857
Frank NJ. Smith, Branch Presi-
drnt, announced that Leonard II.
Carter who directed the 1856
campaign, which raised the
branch membership 10 1867 mem
bers, viii again be the chairman
Of the drive Carl Weschckc, John
Culver and Donald Lewis are
serving as divisional leaders, and
300 workers are In the field solic-
iting memberships,
Mr. Carter reported that the
National headquarters Unsigned
the branch a goal OF 1900 mem
bers. The branch however, is de-
sirous Of doubling that figure and
raising 5000 members during the
months OF April and May, 1857
Said Mr.. Carter: THE mount
ing tide Of racial violence In the
South and the action OF n num-
Der OF southern states banning the
NAACP from functioning. has
placed the responsibility on the
citizens OF the north 10 carry the
financial burden, The citizens OF
ST. Paul, Minnesota, are called
upon 10 support this drive and
join the NAACP. A two dollar
membership from n family is not
enough, both husband and wife
should be members. and their
youngsters should take fifty cent
memberships in the Youth Chap
ter"
Mr.. Carter stated II Ia diff
cult 20 understand why so many
citizens Of 81. Paul are compla-
cent and Indifferent with respect
10 this program. The sacrifices
that we are being called upon 10
make, here, are nothing compar-
ed 10 the sacrifices being made by
our brethren in the South.
Mr.. Carter stated that many
workers when out soliciting mem
berships have been told that Il
win Join next week or next pay
day, or that I promised my mem
ber8hip 10 Mr. or Mrs. John Doe"
This IL an extremely discourag-
ing problem, he said for upon
investigation we find many Of
these peoples paydays never
seem 10 come or they never quite
get around to giving their mem
berghip 10 Mr.. or Mrs. John Doe.
Mr.. Carter called upon the citi-
zens Of St Paul 10 discontinue
these practices and take out the
