the reference was to telephone
calls made by Democratic nominee.
Senator John F. Kennedy, and his
brother, Robert, in connection with
the failing Of the Rev. DR.. Martin
Luther King, Jr., a Negro Baptist
minister, in Georgia.
Senator Kennedy telephoned the
wife Of DR.. King to express his
sympathies after the Negro lead
er was sent to Jail for four months
in the aftermath of a sit-in dem
onstration in Atlanta.
DR.. King was arrested in the
demonstration, and as a result a
Dekalb County, Ca, judge revoked
his suspended sentence for a traf-
fic violation. The incident took
place about two weeks before the
election.
The Senator's brother later
called Judge Oscar Mitchell, who
had sent DR.. King to Jail, and
asked if there was any constitu-
tional bar to the posting Of bail
on the charge for which the SEN
tence was imposed. The demon
stration charge was dropped and
DR.. King was released on $4,000
tond pending an appeal.
The Presidents apparent refer
ence to the episode today was in
cidental to the point he was try
ing to make with a group of in
dustrial leaders that glowing en-
dorsements of economic freedoms
under the free enterprise system
were not fully effective unless
the message was received and re-
tanned by all levels of the body
polite. .t~
1t was the Presidents view
that until industry as well as the
Federal Government had mastered
the technique of getting it's story
across and making it stick at home
to the doorman as well as the
management-it could not hope
successfully to combat Soviet and
Chinese Red propaganda that
Communist industrial productivity
would eventually "bury" the econ
omies of the West.

excellent training opportunities

HAMA also called for the de-
velopment of a university pro-
gram at the College of the City
of New York through the estab-
lishment of a program of doctoral
and graduate studies.
In opposing the Head Report

engraved the so-called Coates
vile Declaration" declaring ten
economic freedoms and stressing
the superiority Of the free enter
prise system.
Conceived as industry's answer
to Communist attacks on the Am
erican way Of life, the plaque was
presented to the President by
Charles Lukens Huston, Jr., pres
ident of Lukens Steel Company of
Coatesville, Pa. The independent
company has been in business for
$50 years.
President Eisenhower congratu-
lated the group on the declaration.
He then suggested that they "skip
the formalities" and to draw up
chairs to discuss how the declara-
ton might be implemented.
It was during the ensuing dis
cussion, according to his visitors
that the President recalled how
he had begun, after the Supreme
Court decision outlawing segrega-
ton in public schools, to make
the nations capital model for
the states to follow in desegregat-
ing the races in their schools.
He recalled also, they said, his
repeated demands on Congress for
civil rights legislation and how
despite these efforts, the shift of
Negro voting from the Democratic
to the Republican column was less
than 2 per cent between 1862 and
1856. ~
It had been source of some
satisfaction to him, the President
noted, that a good part Of what
he had been advocating in the civil
rights sphere had been accomp-
lished. But he added: .*'
"And then somebody picks up
a telephone"
A voting analysis last week by
DR.. George Gallup purported to
show that seven out of ten Negroes
voted for the Democratic ticket
1t found an increase Of seven per-
centage points in Democratic
strength among Negroes since
1856. y
Senator Kennedy's telephone
call to Mrs. King was widely cred
tied by observers with contributing
to this shift. Vice President Nix.
on made no comment on the failing
of the Negro leader. 80
In the last week of the cam
paign, various committees and
groups favoring Senator Kennedy's
election printed and distributed g..
/, 100000 copies Of a four-page
pamphlet entitled emo Comment

A Heart, Senator Kennedy"
In Chicago, 100000 copies Of
the pamphlet were handed out
and may have influenced the large
turnout of Negro voters in a state
carried by Senator Kennedy by
only a narrow margin. ;
In addition to Mr.. Huston, those
who called on the President today
