swer hatred with love for one:
fellow man"
The remainder of Humphreys
remarks to the convention dealt
with as he called it, "a synthesis
of foreign policy, of economic poll
cy, of civil rights and of political
morality"
He related the recognition the
Negro has won in the field of
legal battle.
He spoke of the heavy burdens
imposed on the courts with very
little backing from Congress or
the President saying, do we not
have the right then to expect that
the President and the Congress
will affirm the great moral prin-
ciple Of human equality and broth
erhood by defending the Supreme
curtis desegregation decisions on
moral grounds? The fate of the
desegregation program depends
upon a deep understanding of the
moral issue by our people, an
understanding that can only be
developed through the leadership
of all branches of government.
Congress Must Act Now
Humphrey stated that Congress
should act now" on legislation
"to prevent another case of Sep
TENDER sickness when the schools
open this fall. I'VE cannot ignore
the deeper meaning and challenge
of the lynching at Poplarville, the
rape of Tallahassee, and the $50
instances of racial violence, re-
prisal and intimidation since the
Supreme Courts desegregation de-
cision. We must act now to pass
a bill that supports the Supreme
Courts desegregation decisions
and insure law and order for the
nation"
In his concluding remarks Hum
phrey told the convention members
that he didn't come before them
as a spokesman for the democratic
party but as a spokesman for civil
rights. He mentioned the differ
ences in the democratic party,
pointing up the hard fight both
factions, northern and southern put
up for and against civil rights
But, said Humphrey,
I submit to you that this is a far
more honorable estate than the
practice of having the
same people on both sides of the
civil rights fence"

HOLD JOINT SERVICES

Cambridge, Mass CAMP - Two
local churches, one a Negro con-
gregation and the other a AL
year-old white body, are holding
joint religious services monthly in
a campaign that has proved high

New York. NY. July ia
Republican presidential by virtue
of the fact that he is Governor
of the state where the 5Oth an
niversary convention of the NAA-
CP is being held, got a chance to
show himself to delegates to Amer
icas most important civil rights
convention here tonight.
He was Governor Nelson Rookie
Teller, of New York, who is seri-
ously considered as a candidate
for the Republican Presidential
nomination.
Rockefeller told the evening
meeting of the opening day of the
convention, 1T is important to
recognize that although the prob
lem we have been seeking to solve
was originally a race problem, dur
ing the past rs years it has swelled
into a much larger problem, in
volving all Of US.
Rockefeller said he believed Jim
Crow is on its last legs. Said he:
Segregation is on the way out
in the nation. The historic decision
Of the Supreme Court in 1854 out
having segregation in the public
schools has provided a powerful
impetus toward full realization Of
the American dream"
The NY. governor told his lis
teners: The struggles that have
followed have served to arouse
America. From these disturbing
events came the first civil rights
bill in the United States Congress
in rs years. Even though the bill
falls short Of what we all seek, the
very fact of its passage encour-
ages the efforts Of all Americans
to vote, to travel, to work and to
choose their home without dis
elimination because of race"
Mr.. Rockefeller received a good
hand from the convention delegates
and the guests who attended Mon
