Minister Free,
To Aid SobeI|

A Methodist minister &C
quilted of disorderly conduct
charges after kneeling in prayer
for Morton Sobell before the
White House yesterday says he
will continue his campaign to-
day.
The Rev. David Andrews, 81,
of Boone, N. c., says he has been
interested for years in the case
of Sobell, a., who was convicted
in 1851 of conspiracy to commit
espionage with Julius and Ethel
Rosenberg. atom spies.
Sobell is serving a 30-year
prison sentence. Yesterdays
incident was the latest of sew
eral White House demonstra-
tionS asking President Kennedy
to free him. The minister told
reporters his expenses to and
from Washington had been paid
by the Committee to Obtain
Clemency for Morton Sobell.
In company with Sobell'S
wife, Helen. and son, Mark, IL,
Mr.. Andrews picketed the Ex-
ecutive Mansion for 20 minutes
yesterday: then he knelt be-
fore the fence, drawing an au-
dience of about a dozen people.
Sergt. James L. Salt of the
third precincinct said the min
ister was arrested for refusing
to move on when ordered. In
addition to the disorderly con-
duct charge, charges of OBJ
structing the sidewalk and dis
obeying a policeman's order to
move on were lodged.
The charges were dismissed
by Municipal Court Judge Mil
ton S. Kronheim, ir., who said
the minister was lat most guilty
of poor Judgment, not OF
breach of peace or blocking the
wide sidewalk.
After his acquittal MIR. An
drews said he would return tc

other attempt to draw Mr.. Ken.

AFL-CIO Executive Councils
censure of A. Philip Randolph,
labor's top Negro leader. The
censure, ironically, overshad-
owed the conventions unani-
nous adoption yesterday of the
strongest civil rights resolution
in labor's history.
Mr.. Randolph, a vice presi-
dent of the AFL-CIO and a
member of the Executive Coun-
Gil, was cenSured last october
on charges that he had widened
the gap between Negroes and
organized labor by assailing the
AFL-CIO's civil rights record.
CenSure Is Issue
When the cenSure caused an
uproar. AFL-CIO President
George Meany tried to cool
the issue off by accepting some
of Mr.. Randolph's civil rights
proposals and by promising to
work with the Negro American
Labor Council. Mr.. Randolph
is president of the NALC and
the Brotherhood of Sleenino
Car Porters.
Mr. Meany refused, however.
to have the Executive Council
withdraw the censure. He also
refused through several ne
gotiating sessions to support
Mr.. Randolph's plan to have
the convention send the censure
back to the council for re-
consideration.
Instructions to reconsider
would amount to reputation of
the cenSure, in Mr.. Randolph's
view.
Finally Mr.. Meany relented,
right on the convention plat
form as yesterday afternoons
session was starting. He agreed
with Mr.. Randolph that the
convention should send the
censure back to the council
without give-and-take debate.
Mr.. Meany also agreed to let
Mr.. Randolph and M. P. Web
ster, vice president of the Sleep
ing Car Porters, speak out of
order from the floor to defend
their union against charges
contained in the censure re-
port.
The main idea of the agree
ment was to avert a bruising
floor debate. At the same time,
the censure would not get into
the conventions official record
and would be buried in the
council.
Deal COllapSes
But then the whole deal COL
lapsed as the 900 delegates
tried to figure out what had
happened. Mr.. Randolph and
Mr. Webster delivered rough
speeches attacking the COM
mittee that drafted the censure
report. Mr.. Webster then
offered his motion to send the
censure back to the council.
and MIR. Meany ruled it out of
order.
Mr.. Meany and Mr.. Ran
dolph accused each other of
breaking the agreement. The
AFL-CIO president said the
two Negro leaders had promised
to defend their union without
attacking the council or the
Censure Committee.
No such pledge was given,
Mr.. Randolph insisted, charg-
ing that Mr.. Meany failed to
keep his promise" to back the
Webster motion.
Since the motion was not
debatable, Mr.. Meany said, it
would have been unfair IN LOT
it go to a vote. He siad the
Censure Committee was en-
titled to a chance to reply to
the charges made by Mr..
Randolph and Mr.. Webster.
Full Debate Seen
Mr.. Meany therefore referred
the censure to the Resolutions
