About so citizens appeared

dates Archie T. Munson and

against the CBC. The other
candidates are Francis w.

CBC Councilman Lee M.
Rhoads made a strong plea for
citizen support of a charter
amendment designed to rid the
city of the requirement that
bond issues must receive a ma
jority of the property -owners

Mr.. Ryan also declared that
Federal officers should be en-
powered to supervise elections,
assuring that votes are cast
and that they are counted"
Such powers, he concluded,
would not only improve the
status of all persons who are
now Disseminated against, but
would also create a better
image of this country abroad.
The meeting was called by
the NAACP in an effort to en-
list county support for an anti
discrimination law it wants the
County Council to pass.
Mrs. Mary Y. Williams, presi-
dent of the chapter, said the
group was considering picket
ing the council if it continues
to refuse enactment of the law.
The council was advised by the
county attorney last summer
that it has no power to frame
such legislation.
The NAACP official said the
organization would probably
make no decision on picketing
until the County Human Rela-
tions Commission acts on the
matter, presumably in June.

Shook commented.
Jarnagin is serving a years
sentence for burglary and
Arnold is serving a three-year
