other step forward for the u. S.
Agriculture Departments propos-
ed Great Plains Soil and Water
Research Ccuter at Sidney.
The Great Falls firm of Knight

beginning next July /, President
Kennedy asked Congress to APP
prcpriate 1895 900 to build the
center.
A General Services AdminiStra-
ton official told Senators Mans
field and Metcalf it would take
six months TO complete plans and
gpecif.caions and two months TO
process them in that agency,
which generally handles Uncle
SANS housekeeping. If Congress
votes construction money this
year, GSA hopes to award the
construction contract early next
year.
Inc Sidney center started as a
gleam in the late Senator Murray's
eye in the 1865. Joined by Sena-
or Mansfield and the then Con-
greSSmon Metcalf and Leroy An
dsrsCn, he emphasized the 'ur-
gent research needs in the North
ern Great Plains" The project
moved UP on the Department pri-
GRITTY list, and last year Senator

NEVVBURGH MAYOR DEGREES
"ONE-WAY NORTH" RIDES

Chicago CAMP - Mayor Will
liam D. Ryan of Newburgh, NY,
said here last week that the one
way rides of southern Negroes to
the north are "inhuman" but that
the Negroes should not be sent
back.
1T is nothing more than a
burlesque or vaudeville way Of do
ing something which I consider in
human" Ryan said of the action
by the segregationist Citizens
Council for Greater New Orleans.
He talked to reporters at press
conference in the Pick-Congress
hotel. Ryan, a Democrat, said
America was founded on the prom
Use of a better way Of life, and that
if southern Negroes feel they can
better themselves elsewhere, they
have a perfect right to move"
Ryan became prominent nationally
as an opponent of Newburgh's city
manager, Joseph Mitchell, who fos-
tered a get tough" welfare pro-
gram that was struck down by the
New York Supreme court.

NAAcP Strongly
Protests Shooting
Of Muslin Leader

New York. - The NAACP Ma
tional Office threw its full sup
port behind the vigorous protest
of its Los Angeles branch over
the brutal police killing of Ronald
Stokes, a Muslin leader.
Roy Wilkins, the Associations
executive secretary, said police
brutality against any segment of
the population demands vigorous
action by all elements in the city"
He couched his statement in a
wire to Edward Warren, president
of the NAACP's Los Angeles
branch.
There is an incredible report
circulating here" Mr.. Wilkins con-
tinued, that some sections of the
Los Angeles Negro community are
remaining silent because Stokes
was a leader in the Muslin move
ment."
He urged Mr.. Warren and the
Los Angeles NAACP unit ito
press in all possible ways to bring
the guilty police to account and
to rally other groups to do like
wise.
Never in its history has the
NAACP withheld condemnation OF
and action against police brutality
because of race or religion and II
will not do so now" Secretary
Wilkins concluded.
Mr.. Stokes was killed, and Il
others wounded, when police mis-
takenly descended on a Muslin
Mosque following an alteration
between police and Muslims Oh
the street.
The Muslims are reported t
have taken the guns from the offic
ers when a dance hall policeman
came on the scene and starte,
shooting wildly.
An alarm was sounded and tn
police moved into the neighbor
hood, going to the Muslin Mosqu
by mistake.
