My dear Mr.. President:

Richmond, Ind. A m e r c a n
Quakers have been called upon to-
meet their obligation to the times
and their conSciences in fresh,
approaches to our mist critical
domestic issue race relations.
The appeal was made in a COM
munication to about 700 Friends
Monthly and Yearly Meetings pre-
pared by the Third National Con-
ference of Friends on Race Rela-
tiOnS at its final session at Earl
ham College.
The 125 Quakers from go Meet
ings across the nation, including
many in the South, said: 1--WE real
lied that time is running out; that
events may take from us the op-
portunity to act creatively in help
ing to resolve racial tensions; that
it is still open to Friends to con-
vert tensions into ties of humani-
ty."
In a series of five questions to
the Meetings the Conference ask

have been more significant than
any period since 1854. He cited the
desegregation of lunch counters m
129 communities, progress in vot-
ing rights, and increasing action
by the federal government in the
civil rights field. On the other
hand, he said, little progress has
been made in ending job diScriri-
ination in the South.
While predictions are difficult in
time of ferment, Mr.. Killing said,
it was likely that Negro pressure
for equal rights would become in
creasingly militant. He called the
growing diversity of Negro leader
ship a healthy sign of strength
and said the new leadership would
probably develop new techniques
of protest to meet changing sit
uations.

Sometimes" the NAACP as
serts, "classes are held in assem-
bly, halls, corridors and gymnasia.
mo positive efforts have been
made to integrate the Chicago
public schools and none are in the
offing," the NAACP said.
The Association was highly cri-
tical of the fact that DR.. Willis
''has opposed an Independent sur.
vey of the Chicago public shcools. "
It questions whether a man
should be rehired before any OBJ
jective evaluation of his work has
been undertaken" Also question
ed is ''why there has never been
more than one Negro principal of
a general high school,
And "why qualified Negro prin-
cipals of elementary schools are
always found in all-Negro or pre-
dominantly Negro schools"
The NAACP concluded with the
challenge that ''if we (Chicagoans)
are to build solid, unbiased and
understanding men and women out
of our young people, we must start
in their formative years. ;"

Suit To End Bias

sIt seems to us that litigation
by the Department of Justice is
the best way" said Mr.. Carter,
settle with finality all questions
"aside from CAB regulation, to
concerning the rights of persons to
be free of discrimination in use
of air terminal facilities.
Moreover, Mr.. Carter con-
tinued, "most of the funds pro-
vided by Congress for airport con-
struction have by now been ex-
pended and the airports are IN
operation.
s'Thus, enforcement of the nom
discrimination provisions of the
law and of the assumed contractual
obligation devolves upon the De-
partrnent of JUSTICE" he said.
With the advent of the new ad-
ministration in January of this
year, NAACP Washington Bureau
Director Clarence Mitchell and
Mr.. Pohlhaus renewed the Associ-
atoms requests with Burke Mar
shall of the Justice Department.
CAB Chairman Alan S. Boyd, in
June 16 letter seeking Attorney
General Robert Kennedy's assist
ance in ending bias, based his re-
quest on the Supreme Courts de-
cision in Boynton v. Virginia, de-
cided December 5, 1860.
Argued by Thurgood Marshall
of the NAACP Legal Defense and
Educational Fund, Inc, the case
gave Bruce Boynton the right Of
interstate travellers to eat in term
inal facilities without segregation.
The trio of local NAACP COM
plainants, were refused service in
the restaurant and coffee shop
and allowed to eat only in a snack
bar.

/. A. City Council
May Name Negro

Los Angeles-According to re-
ports circulating here a Negro will
be named to fill the Charles Ma
varro vacancy on the city council
in July. At that time, councilman
Navarro becomes controller, leav-
ing vacancy in the 10th district,
largely Negro populated.
Among these under consideration
are PoIice-Lieutenant Tom Brad
ley, DR.. j. A. Somerville and form
er grid star j. Edpard Atkinson.
Negro leaders have been pressing
for representation on the Council
for many years and have become
even more active and persistent
in their demands in recent months.
Their main complaint is that
boundaries of council districts in
the south central portion of the
city have been "gerrymandered"
to protect white incumbents against
Negro voting strength. The latest
census set the city's non-white pop
ulation at 1868 per cent. On this
basis, minority voters are due two
of the Is council seats.
Los Angeles has been criticized
as being the only large American
city, outside the South, where Ne
groes have no elected posts on city
governing bodies. Chicago has five
out of so; New York one out of 38;
Philadelphia, two out of II; Cleve-
land six out of 33; Pittsburgh and
Navarro won by only 1900 over
Detroit, each one out of nine.
Atkinson's $1,000 two years ago.
The 10th district now takes in more
high income areas on the west
side of Los Angeles. Forty-five per-
cent are white, thirty-eight percent
Negro and seventeen percent are
other minorities.
Many council members also feel
that minority groups should have
a bigger voice in the city govern
ment. They feel that this would al
so tend to alleviate the ill-feeling
between Negro leaders and the
Los Angeles Police Department.

find three families who
will all be gone the same
week, say in August. Tell
the neighbors what you
have in mind and ask for
the use of their houses for
one week. Agree to pay
them what is reasonable.
If the homes in your
neighborhood are large and
you have four children, you
may need only two houses
because the children can
double up.
You should take care Of
the whole food bill, which
may be the largest single
expense. You can do this
by stocking the pantries in
the borrowed homes with
breakfast food and snack
food for the children. Then
all lunches and dinners can
be served buffet style in
your own back yard or din
ing room. Your lawn, with
rented chairs and pillows,
would be ideal as a gather
ing spot for everybody after
dinner.
You would have to sched-
ule some entertainment in
advance for the children.

such arithmetic makes you

Your children, if they are

come if they had to. But I

go across the board on this,
giving the same to your rich

Time for Sentiment
You should make this
homecoming a time for
family sentiment. During
the evenings you should
talk over with the children
the plans you have for the
later years of your life. If
you are financially indie
pendent and need never call
on them for money, you
ought to tell them. BY all
means do not tell them how
much money you have or
how you intend to leave it.
It-would be an ideal time
if you have the energy to
get on with ito start
writing a family history.
A homecoming such as the
one described here would
be quite a deal in your
neighborhood. Everybody on
the street would talk about

before the week is over.
Your children would still be
talking about it when they
