Dawson Criticised
For Turning Down
Postmaster Job

Washington amp - Wide
spread criticism was being ex-
pressed this week Of Rep. William
L. Dawson for turning down the
chance to become the first Negro
to serve in a federal cabinet.
President-electJ John Kennedy an
nounced late last week that he
had offered the postmastership to
Dawson and that the veteran Hin
DIS congressman had declined.
Dawson told Kennedy he felt he
could be of more service to the
country, his party, the state by
retaining his seat in Congress.
ennedy's announcement of
Dawson's refusal to accept the
job was interpreted here as mean
ing that he had recognized an OBJ
legation to the Negro voter by
making the offer to Dawson and
that his next choice for the post
would not be Negro.
1t was on the grounds that Daw-
son muffed an opportunity to >ele-
vate the status of the Negro in the
federal government by declining
the nomination that he was being
criticized in many quarters this
week.
An NAACP official who didn't
wish to be identified pointed out
that by accepting the job, Dawson
might have established a precedent
that would have been followd by
succeeding administrations.
He also declared that Dawson
also missed greater opportunity
to be Of service to his nation in
turning down the job.
Had he accepted, the status Of
America itself would have been
elevated in the eyes of the African
Asian nations.
Dawson's acceptance could have
also provided the nation with a
positive story that could not have
been offset or matched by Russia.
Until Kennedy walked out the
front door of his house and made
his statement, the Chicago con-
gresham had stoutly denied talk
ing to the President-elect about
the Cabinet appointment.
Only few days before he told
a reporter that he hadn't talked
to Kennedy at all for a week or
so, had no date to confer with
him, and as for taking a Cabinet
post If offered, had this to say:
I've never turned down one be-
fore 1t was offered"
During the weeks when Dawson
was thought to be a leader in Ken
nedy's consideration for the post,
his age was mentioned sometimes
as a possible drawback.
But there was no mention of
that factor in Kennedy's doorstep
remarks.
Dawson is chairman Of the
House Government Operations
Committee, which has fostered a
number Of news-making investiga-
tons through subcommittee,
some of them headed by white
Southern congressman with whom
Dawson has maintained amicable
relations.
