Rochelle School

New York, August 2 - A fed

New Rochelle's controversial Lin

gated, and approved a plan to
thin out its predominantly Negro
enrolment.
One of the three appellate judges
dissented sharply, however. He Of

unwarranted interferences by the

By it's 2-to-1 decision, the Unit

allow Negroes in the suburban

school to transfer to other New

u. S. Supreme
Court Asked To
Review Chicken
Feed Case

New York - NAACP Legal De-
fense attorneys petitioned the US.
Supreme Court last week to re-
view the conviction of a Negro
farm-owner in Forrest County,
Mississippi who received a seven
year prison term last winter for
helping to plan the burglary of five
bags of chicken feed worth less
than $25.
The prisoner, Clyde Kennard of
Hattiesburg, Miss, is a 32-year-
old war veteran who, in Septem-
Der, 1869, attempted to enter all
white Mississippi Southern Univer-
sity.
Charging that Kennard was
tried by a jury procedure (which
Systematically discriminates again
st Negro jurors" the Legal De-
fense attorneys asked the court
to review an April Supreme
Court Mississippi ruling which up
holds the conviction.
A preliminary battle to have
Kennard released on bail was lost
July 20 when a Motion for Stay of
Execution was denied by Supreme
Court Justice Hugo Black.
Kennard's attempt to enter
Mississippi Southern in 1859 was
the subject of considerable pub
licity. He was not only denied
admission but was arrested on
the day he attempted to register,
for speeding and having five half
pints of liquor in his car, which
was parked on the Mississippi
Southern campus.
Kennard was convicted on these
charges, but the Supreme Court
of Mississippi threw out the trial
court finding last year because of
a procedural error.
On Nov. IA, 1860, Kennard was
arrested on the present charge
that he induced 19-year old farm
hand to steal five bags of chicken
feed from the nearby Forrest
County Coop, and bring them to
his farm.
Kennard pleaded mot guilty.,
but the all-white jury returned a
verdict of guilty as an accessory
before the fact"

and articlulate its purpose in aid

Bishop Charles F. Golden, gen.
eral chairman of the Convocation,
stated that "the Concovation will
give concern to the initial report
of the Church's Commission on
Inter Jurisdictional R e | n
which calls for mergers of epis-
copal areas of the Central Juris-
diction with the geographic juris-
dictions, and will formulate sug-
gested procedures by which the
Jurisdiction may assist in the tran
sition from a segregated to a
completely racially inclusive church
Throughout the nation"
The Central Jurisdiction has been
the subject of controversy in the
nearly ten-million member denom-
ination since it's creation. The Oh.
has six jurisdictions, five are geo.
graphical while one (Central) is
racial. Although there are Ne
groes who are members of other
jurisdictions, most of the nearly
100000 Negro Methodists are in
the Central Jurisdiction.
The Convocation is expected to
concern itself with invitations
which have been extended to Gen.
trail Jurisdiction Conferences and
episcopal areas by geographic un-
it's, and with the posture of the
Church when the segregated juris-
diction is eliminated. While the
Convocation will not be a legisla-
tive body, strong and specific rec
concentrations are expected to be
directed to the next session of the
official Central Jurisdictional Con
ference, to the Commission on In
ter-Jurisdictional Relations, and to
the 1854 session of the General
Conference.-The quadrennial law

Members of the planning COM
mittee which met in Nashville,
August 1, pointed out that this
meeting will be the first of it's
kind in the Church. The bishops
of the five episcopal areas in
America called the Convocation in
favorable consideration of a rec
ommendation from the spring ses-
sion of the Nashville Birmingham
Area Council.

groes represent almost one-third
of the male population of voting
age.
The Justice Department has re-
Gently filed suit in Forrest Coun-
ty charging that Negroes are de-
MED the right to register on an
equal basis. Brown pointed out
that jury lists are taken from the
list of registered voters in the
county, and in the entire county
only rs Negroes are registered.
The Supreme Court of Missis-
sippi, after hearing Kennard's ap-
peal, held on May 3, 1861 that
Kennard had "failed to establish
his charge that he was denied due
process and equal protection of
the laws by resaon of Negroes be-
ing systematically excluded from
the juries of Forrest County"
In its petition to the U. s. Su-
preme Court, Legal Defense Fund
attorneys plead that unless pc
titioner (Kennard) has a right ). i.
to present evidence to support his
charge of jury discrimination, the
protection offered by the Four
teenth Amendment against convic-
ton by a jury from which his
race has been excluded will be

MIRA to the world"


Ngare, who has just returned
from a seven day viist to Kenya,
described how the situation in hi
country was similar to that in
1949 before the Mau Mau revolu-
tion began. Everyone Afri-
cans, Asians and Europeans -
are looking desperately for an ans
wer," he said. Ngare told of a
seven hour interview he and other
Africans trained in Moral Rear
mament had had with the Kenya
nationalist leader, Jomo Kenyatta.
They showed him the Moral Re-
Armament all-African film "Free-
DOM" Kenyatta said of it, "This
is ideologically and psychologically
sound. 1t is what must happen in
Africa"
The white extreme nationalist,
Johan van Renburg, who was a
member of the Afrikaner organi-
zation, Ossewa Brandwag, in an
unprecedented action spoke on the
same platform with the African
nationalist, Philip Vundla, elected
spokesman for 100000 Africans in
johannesburg. Van Bensburg de-
clared, "Many Afrikaners like me
have hated British Imperialism for
so long that we have become blind
to our own immoral character. We
play into the hands of the Com
munist strategy for the continent
and the world. Here / faced the
harm that has been caused to the
lives of people and nations"
Van Rensberg concluded by en-
phasizing that South African po-
Icy must now be based on MIRA"
Philip Vundla, who was on the
executive of the African National
Congress said, What you achieve
through violence you have to main
tain through more violence. Vio-
lence is not the answer to bitter
ness"
Vundla, who before taking on
the revolutionary fight to bring
Moral Re-Armament to Africa, and
the world, was called by the South
African police "the most dangerous
African in South Africa"
