ton. In making preparation fol-
this historic event, it is well that
we add up the figures and take q
close look at the balance sheet
First, we have In the SANITY
city, q total population Of more
than $4,000, the Negro comprise
$50 or roughly 10000 souls.
This $50, a mere drop in the
bucket, accounts for:
1. $3.50 Of all persons arrested
for murder,
2. 6996 Of all arrests for assault,
with or without deadly weapons,
s. 21s6 Of all robbery arrests,
armed or otherwise,
4. 1OSS Of all rape arrests,
5. 2096 Of all narcotic traffic
arrests,
9. 76q6 of all gambling arrests,
As I sit here writing this article,
a news flash on Television stated
that there had been a raid at COS
Igiehart Ave-, arresting 10 men
for gambling.
Z. 2s96 Of all disorderly conduct
arrests,
8. 1875 of all arrests for embez-
cement and fraud.
These shocking facts, II indeed
they are facts, are not secret.
They are being brOadcasted by
the most powerful radio station
IN the upper midwest.
This damning evidence Is being
picked up in far away Alaska and
hate ridden Alabama as well.
This is grist for the mills Of the
hate merchants who are legions
In America. This Is evidence that
win be shouted by the demogogea
in the halls of Congress. by the
sheet shrouded klansmen and the
White Citizens Council wherever
they are.
To move from Rondo and st.
Anthony to Wheelock, to White
Bear, TO Upper Alton Road or
even to Viking Drive does not ex-
clude you. The Negro Is included
regardless Of where he goes. Not
to believe this IL just as idiotic
as believing that Adolph Hitler
was as much a humanitarian as
Albert schweitzer.

Open Letter Addressed
To St. Paul Negroes
Asks Crime Action

Jesse W. Miller 499 Rondo, president of the Cameo Club
and A @. HILL 499 RondO Av, St. Paul addressed "Open
Letter To St Paul Negroes" Tuesday in which they criticised
St Paul leadership for allowing the growth of crime
The letter is critical of the ST. Paul NAACP ministers
of the city, the business and others.
Miller and Hill said in their letter:
An Open Letter TO The Negro Citizens OF st. Paul
Saint Paul. Minnesota 1.-the SANITY City, will host next

Negroes ana other minoritieg.
The proposal for the amendment,
put forth by Chairman John A.
Hannah and Commissioners Theo-
dore M. Hesburgh and George M.
johnson, would extend universal
suffrage by limiting State auth
GRITTY to the establishment OF any
voting requirements other than
those pertaining to age, residence
and legal confinement. It would
also prohibit any person, as well
as any State or the Federal gov
eminent from denying a citizens
right to vote.
The report considers three
areas OF civil rights; dlscrim-
nation In voting, education and
housing.
1t asked that the Commission, IL
extended, be permitted to set up
an advisory and Cancellation serv-
ice to help local school officials
develop plans for the transition
from segregated systems to deseg-
regated systems. And it suggested
that the Commission serve as a
clearing house for information
about procedures used in desegre-
cation.
In housing, the report urged
that the Federal Housing Admin
istration and the Veterans Ad-
ministration strengthen their pres
ent agreements with cities and
states having INSTRUMENTATION
housing laws by requiring that
builders using FILA and VA ma
chinery agree in advance, In writ
ing, to abide by those laws.
II also asked the President to
4 issue an executive order directing
all Federal agencies to shape their
policies In accordance with "the
constitutional objective Of equal
opportunity in housing"
The appointment In some areas
OF Federal registrars would work
this way:
When nine or more persons from
a county or any other political
subdivision Of State file with the
President affidavits alleging that
they have been denied the right
to register because Of race, color,
religion, or national origin, the
President would refer the affidav-
its to the Commission. IL it's life
is extended, for investigation. II
the complaints were found to be
true, the President then would ap-
point a Federal officer or employee
In the area to act as temporary
registrar.
The Commission, which ran into
trouble in both Alabama and Lou
isiana when it tried to get a look
at registration records, also urged
Federal law requiring that all
State registration and voting rec
ords be preserved for five years
and be open to the public.
Chairman Hannah, who also Ia
President Of Michigan State Univ
ersity, said in issuing the report:
This Commission has attempted
to provide a guide for appropriate
executive or legislative action that
win contribute a solution Of the
civil rights problem.
1T IL a problem, as our report
makes clear, that is native to
