NAACP Warns Of Bias
In State Housing
Program

New York-The New York State
Division of Housing has neglected
to require local officials to satisfy
the New York State policy of no
racial discrimination NAACP
Executive Secretary Roy Wilkins
asserts in a letter to Housing Com
missioner James Gaynor.
In support of his statement, TIE
NAACP leader submitted a seven
page memorandum listing certain
discriminatory practices in state
aided urban renewal and public
housing programs in 16 upstate
communities. The letter and me-
morandum were dispatched on AI-
gust A.
Previously, Mr.. Wilkins had writ
ten to Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller
calling his attention to the victim
ization of minority group families
by the state-assisted housing pro-
gram.
''It is our belief" says the let
ter to Commissioner Gaynor, that
the State, Willingly or unwittingly
has cOoperated in local plans which
have been unfair to local residents
on a pattern which strongly indi-
Gates that race and color have
been important, if not deciding,
factors"

Nine Expelled
Students Get
New Hearing

New York = The U. S. Court
of Appeals this week reversed an
Alabama Federal District Court
which had upheld the controversial
expulsion of nine Alabama State
College Negro students for partici-
pating in "sit-ins" in February,
1860.
The Fifth Circuit Court, sitting
in New Orleans, La, ruled that
"due process requires notice and
some opportunity for hearing be-
for students of a unsupported
college are expelled for miScOn-
duct"
IAN extremely important deci-
sion," commented Jack Green
berg, NAACP Legal Defense Fund
counsel, who argued the case for
the students. "ThiS case firmly
establishes that there must be ade-
quate hearing before expulsion of
a student from a state college for
misconduct"
The students were expelled in
March, 1860, for "sitting-in'' at the
Montgomery Courthouse lunch
room in February, 1860, and for
further demonstrations after the
'Sit-in." They were not tried or
convicted by an Alabama state
court for "sitting-in."
Nine of the students, including
leaders Bernard Lee of Norfolk,
Va, st. John Dixon of National
City, Calf, and Edward E. Jones
of Pittsburgh, Pa, received a let
ter from Alabama State President
H. Councill Trenholm on March
S, 1860, in which he stated that
the students were expelled on or
ders from the State Board of Ed
ucation.
The expelled students then sued
the State Board in the u. S. Dis
trict Court, charging that they had
no notice of expulsion nor oppor-
tunity to defend themselves. The
District Court upheld the Board,
but in last weeks Court of APP
peals decision, the Court ruled that
the students should be given the
names of witnesses who testified
against them, a report Of their
testimony, and an opportunity to
present their side of the picture
to the Board, including witnesses
and written affidavits in their be-
half.
NAACP Legal Defense Fund at
torneyS for the students were Fred
Gray of Montgomery, Ala; Thur
good Marshall, Jack Greenberg
and Derrick A. Bell, of New York
City.

President Asked
To End Color Bar
In National Guard

New York = In light of the Ber-
lin crisis, the continued exclusion
of Negroes from National Guard
units in southern states comes
very close to being sabotage of
the national interest," NAACP Ex-
ecutive Secretary Roy Wilkins
warns in a letter to President Ken
nedy.
The letter, dispatched to tn e
White House on August 8, urges
that appropriate steps be taken
without delay to insure the inclu-
sion, on a non-discriminatory bas-
is, of all citizens in all aspects of
the spiritual and physical mObili-
zation you have ordered"
Recalling the Presidents decla-
ration: ANY dangerous spot is
tenable if brave men will make it
so," in his July 25 address to the
nation, Mr.. Wilkins pointed out
that NEGRO Americans ask SIM
ply that they be given the oppor-
tunity to fit themselves, in honor,
to join the company of brave men
who will resist the enfilading of
our position and make our danger
spot tenable."
The denial of National Guard
enlistment and training, the NAA-
CP leader told the President, is
"a particularly humiliating insult
to Negro citizens since it rejects
in a crude and summary fashion
the gifts (including their lives)
which they would place at the dis
.posal of their country in the event
of national emergency"
Moreover, he added, ''it is at
variance with the national policy
with respect to the acceptance,
training and advancement of Ne
gro personnel in the armed serv-
ices"
In this critical period, Mr.. Will
kins asserted. 1.-The nation is in
need of the support of every citi-
zen and no state or group of
states would seem to have the
right to place its regional tradi-
tionS above the national welfare.
THE threat to our country is
not one to the North or to the
South, to black or to white, to
rich or to poor, to farmer or to
city dwelIer. It is total.'' |

I'VE have been patient a long

said. I'm fact, the effort to deseg-
regate the schools has been knock
ing around the courts since 1855,
and the best the school board has

plan which the NAACP has always
said is too slow, for it requires
II years to complete and cheats
Negro children in the process. !"
The criteria set up to assign
the first graders to school were
obviously designed to keep as
small as possible the number of
Negro children entering integratcd
schools this fall" the NAA'TP
spokesman asserted. "The good
public relations image of Dallas
projected recently as a result of
successful efforts of the Dallas
Citizens Committee to end dis
elimination in restaurants can be
blurred if these criteria are so
applied as to limit the colored pu-
pills entering the schools in Sep

dixie COURT REVERSED BY j. S.
C. SUPREME COURT CONFIRMS
NEED FOR CIVIL RIGHTS LIBERTIES

Columbia, S. C.. - The South
Carolina Supreme Court has con-
firmed the contention that civil
rights will never be obtained until
civil liberties are secure.
The court, sitting in Columbia,
applied the balancing doctrine,
developed by U. S. Supreme Court
Justice Felix Frankfurter, o
peaceful picketing by four young
Negroes. They had been arrested
for picketing for integration t
Darlington, S. c., allegedly with
out a permit.
They were Arthur w. Stanley,
Jr., 16, Jerry Wingate, 16, John
Nettles, II, and Willie Lee John
son, 20. Each was sentenced to pay
$55 fine or serve 80 days in jail;
they appealed to State Supreme
Court.
The youths contended that the
Darlington city ordinance set no
standard for denying or granting
a parade permit and is therefore
unconstitutional. They said this de-
prived them of the right of free,
dom Of speech and assembly,
which are guaranteed by the First
Amendment to the U. S. Constitu-
ton.
The State Supreme Court ruled
that the exercise of constitutional
rights must be- consistent with
peace and good order" The just
ices agreed that these rights are
fundamental but added that they
are not in their nature absolute. "

subject to reasonable and non-diS-
criminatory regulation and limita-
tionS.
This follows the line laid down
in several recent decisions by the
U. S. Supreme Court in cases in
volving defiance of federal and
state investigating committees.
A majority of five, led by Just
ice Felix Frankfurter, has held
that Individual constitutional rights
must be balanced against what
they term the larger national in
terest and must give way before
it.
This has been disputed by a
of four, headed by Just
ice Hugo Black, who contend that
the rights of free speech and as
sembly guaranteed under the First
Amendment are absolute.

Court cases by 5-4 decisions are
