er whose threats of violence were
lepudiated by NAACP officials
has dashed back at his critics.
Robert F. Williams, "a, presi-
dent of the Union County chapter
of the NAACP, said that his ad-
vocacy of meeting violence with
violence" in cases of racial injus-
tice are "none Of their business. !"
In an angry statement Wednes-
day, Williams accused his Negro
critics of being "afraid-afraid to
be associated with his kind of
thinking, afraid because they've
got businesses and that white peo-
pie will retaliate on them"
His charges came a few hours
after Southern Negro leaders re-
acted almost unanimously against
use of violence. Williams touched
off the reaction with his comment
Tuesday night that Negroes must
even be willing to kill if neces-
sary" to protect themselves.
Roy Wilkins, executive secretary
of the NAACP, ordered Williams
suspended pending consideration
of your status" but Williams
vowed he would remain at the head
of the local chapter.
They'll have to come down
here and hold an election before
they can throw me out" he said.
81 was speaking for myself and
not the NAACP and the NAACP
or no organization can tell me
what to do or say" Williams said.
"I've never allowed Negro nor
white to dictate what l can say
or think. That's though control"
Wilkins said the NAACP repu-
dates any "pro-lynching state
ment by one of our officers re-
CARELESS of provocation."

rotary Henry L. Moon, read as
follows:
In our telephone conversation
this morning you stated that the
news dispatch was correct which
quoted you did advocate the col
ored people to meet violence with
violence and you said If it is
necessary to stop lynching with
lynching and they must be willing
to resort to that. method
"You also stated to me that
you knew it is not the policy of
the NAACP and that you are not
speaking for the Association. When
it was pointed out that you were
identified in the news story as
president of the Union County
branch and that because of this
you could not separate the Asso-
citation from your statement, you
said you would make it clear that
you were speaking for yourself
not for the NAACP.
"In view of this recognition that
the NAACP doesn't advocate the
use of violence and lynching and
in view of the disagreement with
the policy of the organization and
your statement, and in view of the
fact that in further interview you
repeated your original statement,
we therefore ask that you suspend
your activities as a local officer
pending consideration of your
status by the Board of Directors

Sturts on Housing
Show Sharp Drop
During October
BY the Associated Press

The Government reported to-
day that private housing starts
dropped 13 per cent last month
much more than usual for
this time of year.
The annual rate on housing
starts in october was 100000,
the Census Bureau estimated.
This figure. adjusted for sea-
sonal fluctuations, was sharply
below the September rate of
1925, 900.
Census statisticians said a
shortage of steel undoubtedly
held up work on some apart
ment buildings and helped &C
count for the decline. Rising
interest rates also have acted
as a brake on private construc-
tion.
Except for July, housing
starts have declined every
month since hitting a record
annual rate of 1,434,000 in
April.
The bureau reported that
work was begun last month on
100000 private dwelling units
This was l3 per cent below
September and did not take
into account seasonal factors.
Construction work normally
begins to taper off in October
in anticipation of winter. How
ever, the bureau takes this into
account in calculating the an
nual rate of starts each month.
