G Catholic Priest
Endorses American
RELIGIOUS Town Hall

American Religious Town Hall
Meeting, deserves the support of
every American interested in the
preservation of the exercise of the
inalienable God-given rights and
liberties enshrined and guaranteed
in the Constitution and Bill of
Rights" So declared Father Clar-
ence E. Duffy, President of the
Society of Saint Dymphna, as he
and the other directors of the
American Religious Town Hall
passed an action to put on a mem
bership drive in the Twin Cities
during Brotherhood Week, Febru-
airy 22nd to March 1st.
The American Religious Town
Hall Meeting is now the only per-
manent inter-religious non-profit
educational corporation with
membership of all faiths united for
the Daslc purpose OF extending ana
preserving the civil and religious
freedoms of man regardless of race
or creed.
The free exercise of these rights
and liberties is in jeopardy, and
under attack from various quarters
in the U. S. A. today. Most Of the
people do not realize this fact, and
many of them are unaware not
only of the import but of the
contents of the Constitution.
Eternal vigilance is still the
price of liberty, and education is
an essential factor in that vigil
ance. American Religious Town

Hall Meeting, Inc, whose Board of
Directors includes scholars, hum
anitarians, ministers, priests and
rabbis of all faiths in the U.S.A.,
is trying to do a very necessary
job in the area of visual education.
Last September it staged a
panel discussion in Independence
Hall Philadelphia on the Constitu-
ton and the Bill of Rights. This
discussion was filmed for telecasts
and covered most of the burning
questions of our day. I, as a Roman
Catholic priest, was privileged to
take part in this discussion and to
present my point of view on such
subjects as modern war, Commun-
ism and the way to combat it, leg
allied gambling, democracy and
the space age, the State and its
limitations and functions, prosely-
tism, the presidency of the U.S.A.,
freedom of religion, of action,
speech and expression in general.
In conclusion Father Duffy said:
In a country in which the owners
of publications which promote rae
ial and religious prejudices and
hatreds reap incomes of from $780,
900 to 100000 a year it must
surely be possible to get sufficient
members among all faiths for this
great organization to promote toll
erance, brotherly love, freedom and
peace, things so much needed not
only in the U.S.A. but in the world
today. 1 feel sure that it will be
easy, once the nature and objec-
tives of American Religious Town
Hall Meeting are brought to the
attention of the people of the U.
S. A, to secure sufficient member
ship to furnish a weekly education
al film on human rights of full
to every station in the
nation.

Gen. of the state were asked to
protest the brutal assault against
Negro who was attacked because
he urged Negroes to vote.
Victim of the attack is Ashbury
Howard Sr., president of the Bess-
emer Voters League, and official
of the International Union of Mine
Mill and Smelter Workers. Howard
was arranging to post a sign urg-
ing people to exercise their right
to vote when the poster was con-
fiscated and he was arrested and
hauled off to court.
He was sentenced to six months
in Jail and fined sos for breach
of the peace"
AS he left the courtroom he was
attacked by some 40 angry whites
Although the police department
was located in the same building
no one interviewed except officers
who arrested his son, Howard, Jr.,
for coming to his fathers rescue
The senior Howard suffered a
head injury which required 10
stitches to close, and his son was
charged with disturbing the
peace"
Last April the Howard home was
dynamited and to date no one has
been arrested in connection with
the bombing.
Appeal To Governor, Atty. Gen.
Shocked and outraged that
reputable civic leader could be so
treated under the very eyes of the
law, the Rev. Martin Luther King,
Jr., and the Rev. F. L. Shuttles-
worth sent an appeal to Alabama's
newly inaugurated governor Pat
terson.
Civic Leader Ashbury Howard
badly beaton by mob in lobby of
City Courthouse Bessemer today
after trial. Howard claims deed
happened in presence of some law
officers. Instead of protection Of
ficers arrested Towards son, also
attacked by mob. Terrible circum-
stances when individuals attending
judicial processes cannot have SAT-
ETY. from mobs. Out of respect for
your office as Governor, and in
view of your pledge for proper
law enforcement, we urge you
order at once full scale investiga-
ton of this event particularly lack
of protection, and see that guilty
parties punished" Respectfully.

To us. Attorney General:
I'VE urge immediate and thor
ough investigation by your Dept. of
circumstances surrounding beating
by mob of Civic Leader Ashbury
Howard today in Bessemer Court
house. Howard has verbally stated
some officers saw him being at
tackled and offered no protection
instead arrested his son also at
tackled by mob. The fact Howard
was there in Court and attacked
on the way out shows lack of SAT-
ETY. for certain persons even while
judicial processes"
