most influential ministers and pas.
tors Of the larger Negro churches
Of the city. This fact brought
forth q question put by . youthful
member Of the audience who asked
the question whether the organi.
zation had the support Of the local
Negro ministers to which he re-
ceived the reply that only = small
percentage Of the ministers Of the
city could be listed - supporters If
the organization and it, purpose.
Some half-dozen or more Of the
less known preachers Of the city
were counted in the audience.
In spite Of the advance notice
that the demands would be reject
ed the group adopted q resolution
authorizing the presenting Of a pc
tition to the City Council calling
for the employment Of Negro Po-
licemen, Negro Bus Drivers, Ne
gro Firemen, and greater educa-
tional, recreational, and other ia
cilities in the Negro communities OF
the city.
The keynote speech Of the meet
ing was made by James A. White,
a letter-carrier, who is the Pres
ident Of the local chapter Of the
Mississippi Progressive Voters
League.
Non-Vi0lent Theme
In an extended speech Presi-
dent White repeatedly asserted
that the resolution adopted at the
meeting and the petition to be
presented to the City Council rep
resented the non-violent approach
and the adoption of the christian
attitude in seeking the solution to
the local racial problem. In de-
Tending the petition he asserted
that the demands contained in the
petition was nothing more than
call for greater opportunities fo'
the Negro citizens of the city. II
support of his assertion that thu
demands of the petition was moth
ing more than call for greater
opportunities for the Negro citi
zens of the city he pointed to TIT
fact that recent reports show
steady loss of population of thu
state which he said was because
of the lack of opportunities TO
| Negro citizens with the end re
suit of lack of opportunities TO
white citizens, and that this lacl
of opportunities for Negroes i
now showing itself in create
loss of white population of tn
state.
Future Action Uncertain
In the course of his speech Pres
ident White said that the oppor
tunities for Negro citizens as re
quested in the petition to be pre-
sented to the City Council shoul
be granted, and that he saw n
need for boycott or other forms 0
public demonstration on the par
of Negro citizens not in harmon,
with the non-violent approach an
the christian ideals but in pres
conference following the meeting
when he was asked in the organl
cation would call for a boycott

Over 8 Inches OF
Rainfall In Past
Two Months

There has been over 8 inches
of rainfall in the east Savage
territory since May /, according
to Oliver Olson whose ranch is
across the river in the Elm Cou-
lee district. In Sidney the first
of the week Mr.. Olson told us
there was 25 inches of rainfall
from Sunday morning to Mon
day noon this week, and the to-
tai had been Az inches since
June 2, with 31z inches in May.
All this moisture has been alb
sorbed by the ground, and the
crops and grass making luxuriant
growth serve to conserve the re-
serve supply from absorption by
sun and wind.
MI. Olson said that in boring
postholes the ground a seeping
wet two feet down, for the first
time in several years. He has two
rain gauges which registered the
same through the two month
period for precipitation which he
anticipates there will be plenty
more of as it is needed. One
thing sure, the biggest hay crop
in many years is already made,
and stockmen don't have that to
worry about, he said.
