which till now has been the prin-
cipal African political organiza-
ton, and the militant, breakaway
Pan-Africanist Congress, which is
behind current demonstrations
against South African race laws,
particularly the pass laws applied
to non-whites.
The parent African National
Congress opposed the demonstra-
tons, and its leader, Albert J.
Luthuli has this week been under
lining once again his partys role
of nonviolence and moderation.
However, Mr.. Luthuli Is rejected by
the government, and both his party
and the Pan-Africanists are cited
in the new banning legislation.
Meetings Banned
The legislation will be directed
also at other organizations as yet
unnamed, but which presumably
will include other racial branches
of the Congress movement which
is campaigning for nonwhite pol
itical advancement in this country.
Announcement of the legislation,
which is to be rushed through
Parliament March %, came only
hours after the government ban in
all major centers on political meet
ings or gatherings of any kind
excepting funerals and religious
services. The ban Is in immediate
effect and will last until June 80.
It prohibits the assembly of more

apois, a school-mate of Miss
Crump at the "U"
The two co-eds visited Mss
Crump's parents Dr. and Mrs. Ed
ward Crump in Nashville. The
young women were extended social
courtesies which are reported else
where in this edition but the thrill
which they received came from OBJ
serving the manner in which young
Negroes and some white sympa-
thizers are supporting the student
sit-downs in the Tennessee met
ropolis.
Miss Dawson told this writer
that on Sunday students from the
various colleges assembled in front
of both Negro and white churches
handing out leaflets, entitled, "A
Message to Christian Conscience,
from the Nashville Christian Lead
ership Council. The students stood
in an attitude Of prayer At some
of the white churches, they were
invited to enter, but they could not
distribute the leaflets in the
church.
This is one method by which
they are appealing to the white
fellow citizens thru channels of
passive resistance.
Some Of the whites took the mat
ter with all seriousness" Miss DAY.
ison said, Others were curious and
others were indignant"
Miss Dawson and Miss Crump
participated during the church
movement, but did not take part
in the sit-ins as they were afraid
they would be dubbed as northern
agitators"
The students distributed to
churchgoers the following Mes
sage to Christian Conscience, "
from the Nashville Christian Lead
ership Council.
The message read:
The moral issues involved
in the struggle for equal
rights for all are too import
ant to be overlooked by any
Christian.
In order to be effective,
the recent community devel-
opments toward racial under
standing must be rooted in a
spiritual comprehension Of the
situation. This can best be
done in prayer. Some of us
have sinned by maintaining
a system that oppressed other
men; the oppressed racial
groups have sinned by ac-
quiescing before the system
Of evil
"All Of us in varying de-
grees, by cooperation, silence,
acquiescence, or overt acts
participate in the personal
and social sin Of prejudice and
segregation. If we, without
pretense, examine ourselves in
prayer and confess that sin,
we can begin to live as broth

On several occasions I
have applied for a job as a
clerk typist. l visited the
Phoenix office of the Urban

and Mr.. Alton Thomas re-
ferred me to his secretary.
She felt that Phoenix just
was not ready for a Negro
to hold this type of position.
She suggested that l apply
for a job as a stock girl.
l feel that I am qualified
to hold the position as a
clerk typist because I have
had three years of training
in typing, shorthand, and
office machines.
I am nineteen years of age,
and l am a high school
graduate with thirty-one
hours of college. In college,
two of my hours were for
Business English and the
other business courses that

for tipping. and office ma
