January. February and March,
1861, change in the law will nov
permit sons or daughters to re-
port work done by their parents
for social security credit accord
ing to the Cumberland Office. The
work, however, must be done in
the course of regular trade Or
business and the parents work
relationship must be bona fide
one. Work done by a parent for
son or daughter in a private
household is still not covered by
the law and should not be reported
Another change gives Clergymen

social security coverage for them
selves as self-employed persons.
Still another change in the law
now permits the wife or husband
of an old-age or disability beneficl-
airy to receive benefits if married
to the worker for at least one
year. A stepchild may also qualify
now for payments if the marriage
creating the stepchild relationship

ly the waiting period in these
cases was 3 years.

payments on his deceased father
record even though he was living
with and being supported by his
stepfather at time of his fathers
death. Under the old law, the
father had to be contributing az
least one-half his child's support
foF him to qualify for monthly
payments.

Murray Retires
From ANA House
Of DeIeqofe:

Denver, Colo. (ANP) - "Only
in America could a man of my
race experience the rich and varied
evidence of friendship in my serv-
ice in the House of Delegates of
the ANA" DR.. Peter Marshall
Murray said in his farewell address
before the policy-making House Of
the American Medical Association,
which recently honored the 73-
year-old New York City physician
here upon his retirement.
MANY Pleasant Memories"
IT shall carry with me many
pleasant memories Of my exper-
fence in the IL years which
have served in the House Of Dele
gates Of ANA" DR.. Murray said.
The gynecologist asserted that
he has received every courtesy
and consideration expected, from
the ANA president down through
the ranks.
Since 1850, definite areas Of
progress and improvement can be
documented In ANA, DR.. Murray
said. AT the. time Of the 1850 San
Francisco meeting Of the ANA and
the passage Of the now historic
resolution, membership Of Negro
physicians in county medical soci-
cites and consequently in state
societies and ANA throughout the
IT southern states and the District
of Columbia was practically nom
existent.
To-day I have 1t at good auth
GRITTY that Negro physicians are
now members Of some county SOC
ieties In all Of these states except
louisiana" he disclosed.
DR.. Murray, who was born in
Houma, La, and earned the A. B.
degree from New Orleans Univer-
sity in 1910, pointed out that ''the
continued exclusion Of Negro ply
sicians from membership In coun-
ty and state societies, q prerequis-
lite for membership in the ANA in
many county societies In the south,
is part Of the image Of ANA which
the public, with no lack Of probing
by detractors Of ANA, Is flooded
at every opportunity"
Barred In Louisiana
He gave Louisiana as an ex-
ample, which, according to DR..
Murray's information, has not ad-
mitted a single Negro physician to
any county or state society.

Arrest Of Miss.
Negro Leaders Is
Protested By NAACP

New York. - The NAACP has
called upon the Department of
Justice to investigate the arrest of
leaders Of the Association in Miss
issippi and to take action against
state officials guilty Of these ILL
egal acts"
Aaron Henry, a Clarksdale phar-
macist and state president of the
NAACP, and four other local AS
ISOLATION leaders were arrested on
Dec. 7 and later that day released
on their own recognizance. They
were charged with conducting a
campaign among Negroes to with
hold patronage from downtown
stores which discriminate against
colored citizens in employment and
services.
Leaders Handcuffed
Arrested with Mr.. Henry were
John C. Melchor, president Of the
Clarksdale NAACP branch; r. L.
Drew, first vice president; Mrs.
Vera Mae Pigee, secretary; and
Rev. Theodore Trammell, chap
lain.
All, except Mr.. Henry, were
handcuffed and taken to Jail. War
rants were issued for two other
NAACP members: J. w. Wright
and LaBoyd Keys.
In a telegram to Attorney Cen
eral Robert F. Kennedy, Dec. 7,
NAACP Executive Secretary Roy
Wilkins said:
These NAACP leaders have
called upon the public to refuse to
patronize downtown businesses in
Clarksdale until those enterprises
adopt a policy Of non-discrimina-
ton in employment and in their
treatment of the public.
Obviously, both the means and
purposes are lawful and protected
under the Constitution Of the
United States. These arrests are
clear, open and notorious violations
of the federal civil rights Of DR..
Henry and the others. We protest
their arrests as violative of the
federal Constitution.
I'VE urgently request that the
Department Of Justice investigate
this matter and take action against
state officials guilty Of these ILL
egal acts"
"Selective" Buying Campaign
The selective buying campaign,
started shortly before
Thanksgiving Day, was spanked by
withdrawal of an invitation to the
bands Of the Negro high school
and junior college to participate in
the annual Christmas parade. AS
in previous years, the bands were
invited to participate. Later the
invitation was cancelled by the
Chamber Of Commerce, allegedly
at the demand Of the Mayor.
The impact Of the Withholding
campaign In the pre-holiday period
led to the arrest Of the leaders of
the movement In orders Of County
Prosecutor Thomas H. Pearson.
The prosecutor told Mr.. Henry
and the other defendants that 1t
was against Mississippi law for
two or more persons to conspire
to withhold trade.

Look at the passerbys. Can't
you see there are q great many
more friendly faces In the throngs
than usual?
Wouldn't it be wonderful II this
Christmas spirit lasted all the
year? During the year, most peo-
pie are SO busy doing things for
themselves they really don't take
the time to think Of others.
1t Is when the spirit of Christ
mas comes that causes them to
reach back over the past year and
check up on their activities and
they find they have been a little
selfish. Now, the Spirit of Christ
mas has found them thinking of
others they had all but forgotten,
during the year.

ing, Have you talked with your
mother, lately? You begin to think
of your mother ana realize you
have not even written to her since
Mothers Day! You can hardly wait
for the hours to pass so you can
call Mother this evening. You have
all sorts Of thoughts as you wait.
You wonder how she Il. You do
not know whether she Is well or
Ill. You wonder how you could
have been so negligent. You love
your mother very dearly but you
simply did not have time to write!
How fortunate you are when
your Mother answers her telephone
that evening. She was so happy to
hear from you and to know you
are well and happy. Not a word
about your neglect and that makes
you feel worse. She asks you II
you can spend a part Of the holi-
day season with her, this year.
Your heart is so happy to know
that she Is alive and feeling fine
that you promise to spend ALL Of
your holidays with her.
How happy you are to be going
home for the holidays. You decide
to do some shopping for your
Mother. You have no idea what
she would like: So, you decide to
wait until you get home" and
have one of your sisters buy your
gifts for Mother. BY this time you
really have the Christmas spirit
and it shines and tells the world
how happy you are. To you, 1t
seems everyone is so bright and
cheerful, now. Not knowing It,
they feel your happiness and 1t Is
contagious!
