What Robert Moses Didn't Tell

From down in McComb, Mississippi comes re-
ports that many of the parents of the Negro stu
dents who boycott the high school down there have
lost their jobs among them high salarad
jobs in the hardwood and lumber processing plants
in and around the McComb Community
The leader of the students, whose parents found
it impossible, wifuly neglected to restrain, is
Robert Moses, a young Negro from New York
City, member of the Student Nonviolent Co-ord-
mating Committee reported the action arm of Rev.
Martin Luther King Jr, Southern Christian Non
Violent Leadership Conference.
What Robert Moses did not tell the students
parents is where they going to be able to get
jobs to continue to for their families and
educate their children after losing the jobs they
had before he came to their city.
Mississippi Negroes who followed the advise
of people from afar like Robert Moses, who don't
know what he is talking about in the first place,
telling them that white employers can't do with
out Negroes to work, being misled to their
sorrow events in McComb are showing.
The basic ingredient in the employment of
Negroes in this state is the goodwill of the white
employer leading to the recognition of the need of
Negroes to work in order to make a living, and
people like Robert Moses doing only one thing
and that is destroying the goodwill upon which Ne
gro employment opportunities based in this
state.
