Gulfport's recreation director,
Herbert Wilson, said Joseph N.
Austin "has been released from
duty" as director of Negro rec
reation for the city. A cross was
burned on the lawn of Austin's
home the night after the petition
became public this week. Austin
said he received "many" threat
ening phone calls during the 48
hours after the Negroes made their
request, including enc threatening
mob-action against him.
DR.. Felix H. Dunn, one of the
two physicians, said Friday it was
"more or less a fact" Eula White
"bas been temporarily relieved of
his job for a cooling off period"
Dunn said White, who Thursday
asked his name be crossed off the
petition, worked for private
home.
81 am a law-abiding citizen and
do not want anything to come to
break the good relations between
the races" White wrote the coun-

public by the supervisors.
White refused comment on his
job status and Dunn said White

A Sudden" leap to independ-
ence could throttle any democratic
tendencies because "you can't have
democracy if you have an eco
nomic crisis straight off," said the
spokesman.
In addition there is the gov
ernment's assertion that there has
been a recent revival of Mau Maui
type secret societies-Kiama Kia
Muingi and Klama Kia Thayu.
However, it is widely believed
that these secret societies have
little Importance in terms of Sc
curity. The likelihood of another
Mau Mau uprising can be author
itatively stated as quite small.
The government, nevertheless,
plans what it calls Replacement
legislation" which would enable
it to keep some of the deafness
under confinement. Jomo Kenyat-
ia, leader of the Mau Mau upris-
ing who has been exiled to north
ern Kenya, sis going to be in for
a long time" it was stated.

Tallulah. Bussey was to be ques-
toned further today. A hearing
for him is scheduled for next
week.
Highway patrolmen and county
officers had already found more
than 20 mems suits taken from
burglary in Union at Bussey's
place. In addition, officers said,
he paid operators of the store more
than $1,000 for suits he had al
ready sold.
Persons who had purchased the
shotguns from Bussey told police
today they usually paid about one
half price for them.

CARELESS of race, religion, or color"
In addition to keeping Negroes
from obtaining membership in I'M
ion locals, he said, there is a gen.
eral refusal to accept transfer
cards of Negro workers.
"There is evidence of definite
limiting of Negro workers in GER
tain job assignments. There is a
fragrant denial of apprenticeship
training opportunities to young Ne
groes seeking an opportunity to
train for full union status" he
charged.
In 1856 the United States De-
partment of Commerce, he said,
listed 1860 electricians employed
in the civilian labor force. "Of this
number 10,390 were white and only
260 or 2.3 per cent were Negro"
Electrical job opportunities for
Negro women sis even worse" Mr..
Finley claimed. In a total of 420
female electricians, all were whites.
Although denied union member
ship, some Negro electricians may
be granted a work assignment card
from the union in order to be en-
ployed by a contractor, it was ex-
planned. "Others are often given
shortterm special work permits"
These permits, Mr.. Finley said,
cannot be obtained by the work
ers themselves land are not al
ways granted to the contractors"
at appears that in some local
unions, Negroes are admitted to
membership but there may be an
agreemnt between union officials
and management to keep Negroes
out of some places" the Urban Lea
que official asserted.
Mr.. Finley told the union men,
bers that series of conferences
had been held between Urban Lea
que racial relations officials and
leaders of their IBEW locals on
racial practices of their unions
across the United States. He en-
phasized that these meetings will
continue on both a state, and ma
tional level in an effort to find a
solution to current problems in
union race relations.

Jackson police Friday nabbed a
Kinds county nightclub operator
in a breakdown on a two-state

had been stolen in Jackson and
Tallulah, La, officers said.
Bussey's arrest was the latest

special prayers at services for the
next two Sundays for speedy re-
covery for the fiery Harlem relig-
ious and political leader.
A source close to Rep. Powell
said he had requested physicians
that he be able to return to New
York this weekend to speak at both
religious services at the Abyssinian
Baptist Church and it is expected
that Powell will have a special an
nouncement to make at that time
In revealing that Powell woul,l
address the Sunday services, his
Washington office said the Con-
gresham was urging that all men,
bers attend. Abyssinian has a re-
ported membership of over 10000
and both Sunday services are ex-
pected to be crowded to hear Pow

We have too many leaders

Now who are you going to blame.
The Bible says the world loves its
And yet you can read and write
He said for his people to separate
What is it bringing about this

You fail to separate from the

The worlds dollars are letting
them in
You are lusting after money today
And filling Gods. house with sin.
If you do not know the word of

And cannot read or write
You ought to know God in the
pardon of your sin
And stop raising hell in Gods
house with fight.
Looks as if you are filling Gods

Yet He is asking for love to come
in
The love of God is what we need
If we expect to blot out our sin.
You need not take God your ex-

Your diplomas and all your brains
He is only asking for your heart

For his heaven to enroll your name
When you are blind and cannot see
Why try to lead Gods man

NIGHT: Back yonder when / was
boy the old folks used to quiet
youngun who they thought was
talking too much by saying, 90
set down now you done run-out,
and after such a putting-back-in-
Misplace twas a long time before
the youngun could get up nerve
enough to butt-in on another con-
versation goin-on 'mongst the old
folks | got to thinking about
how the old folks used to squelch
the younguns back in them days
whilst | was eating my fish and
drinking my beer, and got to think
ing bout Aine Haggar's Chillun
and wondering if they amt bout to
git to the place by talking too
much and talking as if nobody was
right but dem where other folkll
start thinking that we done run
out and lack it used to be back
when the old folks used to say, go
set down now you done run-out
its hard to get G good start after
then on that same subject, and it
was back there that I learnt that
you kin do too much talking bout
the same thing and git your
self where wont nobody be paying
taintion to what you say from
what | reads in the papers it looks
like some folks is trying to throw
out some hints to Aine Haggar's
Chillun before folks that we is
talking to be looking but not lis
tening, which will be lack the old
saying bout talk falling on deaf
| ears and bout talk falling on
deaf ears that means that folk'll
be hearing what you say but that's
all and wnen you doing lotta
talking and folks jest hearing what
you say and doing nothing bout
what youse talking bout that's the
same as the old folks used to do
the younguns and what they meant
when they used to say with an air
of complete chats all" go
set down now you done run
out l kept on eating my fish
and drinking my beer after | was
fust hit by that thought, seeing
that Pm always thinking bout the
members of the tribe, and it stayed
with me whilst l listened to the
members of the tribe in town from
here, there, and yonder all talkin
bout the same thing, and looking
lack for the most part that they
done run outta breath, which is the
chief substance of most of the talk
ing that you hear if you listen
close enough to a crowd of Aine
Haggar's Chillun talking now-o-
days breath being no substi-
tute for brains talking out of a
plentitude of breath without much
strain on the brains kin last a
long time, but even that kinda
talk kin run-out what got me
most worried as | thought more
was what is Aine Haggar's Chill
lun gonna do bout the things that
theys all talkin bout now, when
the folks that theys talking to git
tired of listening and lack the old
folks back yonder says Go set
