New Survey
Measures Negro
Buying Power

The Minneapolis Spokesman and
st. Paul Recorder this week pub
lished a QUESTIONABLE on income,
buying habits, and long-range buy
ing plans of members of the Negro
community in the Twin Cities.
This is the first phase Of a study
aimed at learning more about the
score and nature of the Negro
market in this area.
Readers are asked to fill out and
return the QUESTIONABLE, which
will be found on page 5.
All responses should be anony-
nous.
These newspapers do not want
the personal data asked for in the
QUESTIONABLE to be identified as to
the families and individuals they
apply to, and will discard at once
any Identification accompanying
the responses.
The information provided will be
used in connection with Spokes-
man and Recorder advertising pro-
grams, and will be made available
to organizations concerned with
fair employment, race relations,
etc.
Negro buying power is a fact
which has become Of increasing
interest to the business community.
Judicious use Of this buying power
has already been a tremendous
factor in the campaign for equali-
ty Of treatment and especially Of
job opportunity for Negroes.
The QUESTIONABLE Is being en-
ployed in preference to a poll-type
survey or a door-to-door canvass
because of the desire to respect
the privacy Of those surveyed, as
we'll as for reasons Of economy. 1t
is expected that the response will
be general enough to produce re-
suits as reliable as the other types
of survey.

Court Wipes Our
Fitzpatrick Masons
In Pennsylvania

Philadelphia CAMP - In a
sweeping decision, the Court Of
Common Pleas here last week vir-
tually wiped out the operations Of
an organization of Masons headed
by William J. Fitzpatrick of De-
troit.
The court, ruling in favor of the
Prince Hall Supreme Council Of
Scottish Rite Masons of the North
ern Jurisdiction and the Prince
Hall grand lodge of Pennsylvania,
declared that "every Fitzpatrick
Mason body, high and low, is spur
ious and illegal and enjoined all
such bodies and Fitzpatrick him.
self and all officers and members
of such bodies from calling or hold
ing themselves forth as Masons,
from wearing Masonic emblems,
badges and paraphernalia and from
meeting as Masonic bodies or en-
gaging in any activities of a Ma
sonic character in the state of
Pennsylvania"
The decision was rendered in
two cases brought jointly by the
two high Prince Hall bodies. The
basis of the decision by the court
was the evidence introduced in a
long trial at the conclusion Of
which the court was convinced
that all of the Fitzpatrick bodies
Are not lawfully Constituted Ma
sonic Organizations" and that they
have used the names Mason"
"A.A.S.R. Masons" and have been
using, wearing, and displaying Ma
sonic names, badges, notices, but
tons. decorations and insignia,
without authorization from any
Masonic source"
The court said "the testimony
overwhelmingly supports the con-
clusion that the plaintiff prince
Hall Grand Lodge and the plain
TIFF prince HalD Supreme Coun-
Gil are lawfully constituted Ma
sonic organizations"

the six Muslims wounded in the
riot.
It took the jury % minutes to
reach its decision. One Of them
told reporters the decision on the
death Of the Black Muslin was
unanimous and without disagree
ment.
MusIims Decline To Testify
Eight policemen involved in the
melee testified at the inquest,
along with one special officer who
was at the scene.
Nine of the Muslin defendants
subpoenaed to the inquest declined
to testify on the advice Of their
attorney, Earl c. Broadly.
Broadly said he was shocked"
to learn from Weese's testimony
that Weese knew Stokes had no
weapon when he shot him.
Malcolm x, New York Muslin
leader, expressed his indignation
over the verdict.

The County Commission on HUI

that the grand jury will investi-
gate charges Of police brutality as
well as facets of te Black Muslin
movement.
Says Trouble Heightens
Controversy following the April
27 clash between Muslims and po-
lice officers has served to height
en- rather than decrease tension in
certain quarters" the commission
said in a statement released by its
chairman, Hunt Lewis.
Charges by Negro leaders Of po-
lice brutality together with the
police department publicizing its
virtual doubling" of the police
force in certain Negro districts
may together produce a regret
table effect" the statement said.
eff Negro citizens begin to 'ex-
pect' brutality in contacts with
the police, and if the police officer
begins to expect resistance by
any Negro he approaches in the
line of duty, a psychological situa-
ton can result in which both bru-
tahty and resistance may occur
simply because both parties expect
it to occur"
While the Negro leadership may
deplore the goals of the Muslin
movement, the leaders may never
theless be concerned 1est certain
segments of our officialdom count
err the Muslin position with what
would appear to this leadership as
threat to the entire Negro COM
munity," the statement said.
