Michigan Senator
Horf Introduces
Anti lynch Bill

Washington (ANP) - Senator
Philip Hart ID. MiCh) introduced
a bill last week making it a crime
to do bodily injury or death to
any person because of his race,
religion. color or national origin,
as well as against any persons who
is either suspected of or is in
custody for committing a criminal
offense.
This is not new legislation to
the Congress, said Sen. Hart He
had been informed by the Library
of Congress that more than 200
bills dealing with this subject have
been introduced since 1900 AL
though four bills dealing with this
subject are now pending in the
House of Representatives, none
have been introduced in the Sem
ate this session.
Senator Hart said he introduced
the bill because of the incident in
Poplarville, Miss. Mob violence
is a horrible thing. Dragging a
man from Jail, inflicting brutal
injury, possible death, denying
anyone fair trial taking the law
into private hands-these are I'M
considerable things. Few Ameri-
cans anywhere condone them ..
Il know that every member of
this Senate joins me in the hope
that those responsible will quickly
be brought to justice"

solutions of serious racial housing
problems and works for improved
use of public services made freely
available. For the nine million
Negroes who live in cities, the
League is a strong influence for
improved family life and better
neighborhood conditions"
Financially the local Leagues,
sman-scale replicas of the Nation
al Urban League, are self-suffici-
ent, supported with few exceptions
by local united funds and commun-
ity chests as well as membership
dues. The National League head
quarters meets it's budget needs

tributions and by membership

home, your neighbors or anyone

This lady does not ask charity,
she was only hoping some Of her

she was well and able to live as
they live, would take her home.

search, vocational guidance, health
and welfare, and employment, it
presents a sharply detailed pic
ture of the organization at work
in sixty-three American communi-
ties served by local Urban Leagues
under the general direction of
national headquarters at IA East
4Sth Street, New York City.
In spite of increased tensions in
many areas, the report indicates
a strong national tide of sentiment
against discrimination and a wide
spread willingness to work toward
interracial understanding.
Improvement Of the economic
position of the Negro wage Garner
continued to be the Urban Leagues
primary concern" Granger states
in his introduction to the report.
On the local level this was illus
trated by victory in a 15-year bat
tie to license Negro master plum
bers in Baltimore, merit hiring of
Negroes for city civil service jobs
in Omaha, Neb., employments of
Negroes in hundreds of airlines
jobs in New York City and around
the country. The Leagues Nation
al Commerce and Industry Coun-
Gil, composed of twenty-seven in
dustrial leaders, and it's Trade
Union Committee of fifteen labor
leaders exerted powerful influence
in this area
An example of the Leagues eff
forts in the health and welfare
field is a new sewer system in a
Negro section of Fort Wayne, Ind,
installed after an Swear fight by
the local League. Housing for Ne
groes, both in new developments
and older communities, is steadily
expanding through League discus
sions with builders, legislators and
city planners all over the United
States. The Urban League of
Cleveland has set up the first rae
ial relations housing service in
the city's history.
A special section of the three
year record deals with the Leagues
efforts to increase the number of
adoptions of Negro children. More
than 100000 was received from
foundations for work in this area.
To encourage young Negroes to
train as scientists and technicians
the Leagues national headquarters
has initiated a new youth incen-
tives program. 1t supplements
traditional vocational guidance
services which aim to halt the
waste of talented minority students
who fail to complete their educa-
ton because of special problems
Most widely publcized of the
Leagues activities during the
three-year period were it's annual
Equal Opportunity Day observ-
ances on November 10, launched
by proclamations from governors
of many states and by President
Eisenhower.
Mr.. Granger states the goal of
the Urban League as equal OPP
portunity based on merit. It con-
centrates on job opportunities and
better training and guidance for

Most Of us think our neighbors
are the people who live close by
us. But we are taught that our
neighbors are those who cross our
path by any chance. We are also
taught to help our neighbor as we
would have them help us, especial
ly the ones who really need help
So many times you notice the
one who needs the least help is
the one who has many helpers.
Last Sunday after church, as we
sat waiting for the family to get
in the car was watching a little
quite elderly very poorly clad lady
walking back and forth like she
was lost.
1t seemed to me that each time
she stopped to talk with a group,
soon they went on their way and
she would go to another person or
group. She looked really tired but
she kept going until asked why
she was standing outside so long.
I was told she is a widow, living
alone on a very small pension.

The others in the car decided they

not talk long with her. She lived
quite a long way from church.
All the way out kept thinking
how very much she wanted to be
in church on Sunday to pay the
taxi fare from her house to the
church of her choice.
She lived in a very small house
and she had beautiful lilacs in
bloom and she offered to get
large bouquet for us. She was so
happy to be taken home that she
wanted to show us her gratitude.
She has no telephone so anyone
wishing to take her to church
would have to go out early or drop
her a note before Sunday to let
her know she would be taken to
church.
She is a very deserving Lady
