WILKINS REFUTES go SLOW"
ADVOCATES

NEW YORK, Feb. 20-Writ-
ing in the March issue of The
Atlantic Monthly, Roy Wilkins,
executive secretary of the Ma
tional Association for the Ad-
vancement Of Colored People,
refuteS the charge that the Ma
ACP and Negroes generally are
pushing too hard" in the drive
for desegregation.
AS an eXmaple Of the admoni-
ton to "slow down. the NAACP
leader cites an article by Mrs.
Agnes E. Meyer published in the
January Atlantic Monthly. In
her article, Mrs Meyer caution
ed make haste slowly"
"There has been no pell-mell
rush toward deSegregation, no
d and for instantaneous
change" Mr. wilkins writes in
his article. Certainly the Ma
ACP has not advocated over
night alteration of school pat
terms. However, both the NAACP
and Negro citizens generally
have insisted that school boards
come to grips with the ques-
ton and that beginnings in
good faith be made. "The eS-
Sential thing, he asserts, is that
there be consistent movement
totward integration.

There is a report that the

Star OF "Kings Go Forth
Airs Views On Race Bias

HOLLYWOOD - While play
ing the role of the half-white,
half-Negro girl 'Monique" in the
wartime, race-theme m OWE
Kings Go FORTH" star actress
Natalie Wood was moved to
comment on the lack of logic
one discovers in arguments for
segregation and bigotry.
"I never have felt any pre-
judice toward people of other
races" Miss Wood said. "It is
completely foreign to me"
An actress who likes to "feel"
every role she palys, Miss Wood
could recall no personal incident
In which she had been subjected
to the indignities that are heap
ed on Monique by white Amer
ican soldiers during World War
1I-simply because her father
was Negro. +
But Miss Wood did relate this
incident:
II remember once when I was
attending school in Los Angeles,
a Negro substitute teacher was
sent to our class. Five or six of
the white kids got up and walk
ed out. The only reaction of the
rest of us was indignation at
the children who walked out!"
Like the rest of the cast cher
co-StarS::, Frank Sinatra and
Tony Curtis), Miss Wood be-
lieves that "Kings Go Forth"
will "do a lot of good in the
cause of racial understanding"
through it's bold, yet subtle. plea
for tolerance and mutual re-
spect among people.

SACRAMENTO, Calf, Feb. %
Backed by a fund, repeatedly
in excess of $4,000, 900, certain
southern state governments in
alliance with White Citizens
Councils have launched a vast
propaganda campaign to WOO
northernerS to segregation, Roy
wilkins, NAACP executive Sec
retary, charged here tonight in
an address prepared for delivery
at a dinner meeting of the As
Sociation's Sacramento branch.
The NAACP leader cited as
an example of this kind of pro-
paganda a full-page advertise
ment published recently in a
New Kork City daily and paid
for by the Louisiana Joint Leg
islative Committee for the Pre-
Servation of Segregation. The
advertisement sets forth what
it calls ,"the position of the
South on race relations"
"This statement" Mr.. wilkins
pointed out, "is baSically an ap-
peal to the North to join the
South, in defying the Supreme
Court ruling which outlawed
racial segregation in the public
schools"
Further, he asserted, "in it's
declaration that if such Segre-
cation is practiced in the North,
it will help that region adjust
to a greatly increased Negro
population by 1880, the adver-
tiSement is an open invitation
to the North to defy the ma
tion's highest court"
