creased personel visits to business
firms, by local employment service
staff, more phone contacts with
| employers, personal letters to en-
| ployer associations and industry
heads, and speeches before service
clubs. All of these measures have
proven successful in the past
Sarbu stated, but they will Dt
intensified in the future.
Howard Sarbu again reminded
employers with untitled job open.

understand what it means to be a Negro?"
Negroes are conscious that they are
characterized in the most general terms,
even by those who profess to know the
Negro"
Because of this stereotyping, the Ne
gro is sensitive and defensive toward any
white man who writes or talks about him.
In an attempt to remove some of these
misconceptions, this reporter for the past
four months has interviewed hundreds of
Negroes in homes and offices throughout
the city.
The interviews, sometimes lasting as
long as three hours, were with Negroes in
all walks of life-from Slum sections to the

In a sense, this is our Negro problem"
Unfortunately, those words mean some
thing different to most white men.
In referring to the Negro, white men
tend to identify crime and high welfare
costs as their idea of the problem.
The Negro knows-and resents-this
attitude. He is aware that the faults of
some in his race are used to deprecate the
entire group.
When the word problem" is used in
connection with the Negro, it often brings
a disdainful expression from him.
One Negro, Washington college stu
dent, put it in words which reflected the
view expressed by many:
They've been studying the problem
for years" he said. "The white men are al

The motion by Board Mem

said that "in order to set up

Here, in the white city beside the Po-

There are more Negroes in the Capital

Since the days when slaves were sold

Negro has progressed and prospered This
progress, though, has been far from fully

Knocked Down
In Street Clash

MONTGOMERY. Ala, May
20 (AP). A bloody race riot
which left at least 20 persons
beaten with clubs and fists
ragged for two hours here today
after a white mob greeted a
busload of freedom riders"
Fighting broke out and SUBJ
sided three times before city
and state police, unable to re-
store order by other methods,
tossed tear gas bombs into the
IhoWling mob.
The mob, which at times
numbered about 1000, attacked
the racially-mixed bus riders
first within an instant after
the Greyhound bus pulled into
the downtown station from
Birmingham.
BystanderS Also Hurt
| The savage fury hit bystand-
ers too, including John Seigen-
thaler, 80, an administrative
assistant to Attorney General
Kennedy.
Mr.. Seigenthaler was injured
when he tried to rescue a white
girl from the mob. He was
taken to a hospital with a cut
behind his ear. He was slugged
from behind as he struggled to
help the girl. one of the free
dom riders"
Another injured was Jim
Zwerg, a 21-year-old white
ministerial student from Apple
ton. Wis, who was aboard the
bus. He was beaten unconscious
and, after a wait of some 80
minutes. was taken to a hospital
by police. Hospital attendants
said his condition is "satis-
factory" Mr.. Zwerg and two
white girls were the only white
riders on the bus.
At least four out-of-town
reporters and photographers
were beaten as they attempted
to film the rioting. Others lost
their cameras, some of them
smashed.
Before the violence Subsided,
shortly before / pm, a Negro
and eight white persons, includ-
ing a woman, were taken to
Jail. Most Of them were charged
with failing to obey an officer.
Negroes Are Waylaid
Some of the beaten Negroes
had no apparent connection
with the group which came
here from Birmingham on a
trip into Alabama to challenge
racial barriers at bus stations
The trip started at Nashville,
Tenn.
Several young white boys
waylaid four Negroes walking
along a street near the bus
station, poured an inflammable
liquid on one of the Negro's
clothes and set it afire. The
blaze burned out, but the man
was left lying in the street.
Another Negro with him suf-
fered a broken leg when the
white youths pounced on him.
An 18-year-old employe of
the Montgomery Advertiser
Journal, Paschal Pike, was at
tackled by the mob when he
sought to enter the bus station
to pick up a package. The
youth, who is white, said he
was beaten when he identified
himself as an employe of the
newspapers.

Kennedy instructed the Justice
Department Ito take all neces-
sary steps based on their inveS-
tigation and information" of
the riots in Montgomery.
The Attorney General, in a
telegram to Gov. John Patter-
son of Alabama, announced
these steps:
l. He is asking the United
States Court in Montgomery
to enjoin the Ku Klux Klan,
the National States Rights
Party, certain individuals and
all persons acting in concert
with them from interfering
with peaceful interstate travel
by bus.
2. The FBI will send an extra
team into Montgomery to in
tensify its investigation of the
Irioting growing out of the ef-
forts of the freedom riders"
to travel in a deSegregated
fashion in Alabama.
3. Federal officers will assist
State and local authorities in
the protection of persons and
property and vehicles in Ala
bama."
Sees No Alternative
The Attorney General said
that although he strongly be-
lieved that law enforcement
should be handled by local
authorities whenever possible,
he had no alternative but to
take action when he was unable
to reach the Governor to find
out what steps were planned
to avert more violence.
The Federal officers will in
clude 20 deputy marshals from
the District under United
States Marshal James Nc
Shane. The Washington group
took off in Federal Aviation
Agency plane before the At
torney Generals telegram was
made public.
The other officers moving into
Montgomery, according to a
Justice Department spokesman,
are mostly now in Southern
States or are from the South.
Among them are 80 prison
guards from the Federal Peni-
tentiary at Atlanta and 800
of the Treasury's Alcohol Tax
Unit agents stationed in the
South.
