These youth whose mass, direct
action against segregation is aim

the endorsement of the delegates
without reservation.

was also acclaimed by the body

on.
Perhaps with the admonifion in
mind that was carried recently
in nafionaIIy-cirevlsfed maya

violence, the NAAcP expended
its racial defense policy TO in
