lines, and the right to free public
education.
II issued last March a compre-
hensive order to guarantee the
right to equal employment oppor-
tunity in all federal agencies and
contractors. The Vice Presidents
committee thus created has done
much, including the voluntary
plans for progress which, in all
sections of the country, are achiev-
ing a quiet but striking success in
opening up to all races new pro-
fessional, supervisory and other
job opportunities.
But there is much more to be
done-by the executive, by the
courts, and by the Congress.
Among the bills now pending be-
fore you, on which the executive
departments will comment in de-
tail, are appropriate methods Of
strengthening these basic rights
which have our full support.
THE right to vote, for example,
should no longer be arbitrarily
denied thru such iniquitous local
devices as Hteracy tests and poll
taxes. As we approach the Tooth
anniversary of the Emancipation
Proclamation, let the acts of every
branch of government - and every
citizen-portray the righteousness
that exaIteth a nation"

NAACP To Rescue Of
Family Stranded
Gold & PenniIeSS

In st. Paul, Monday night in
subzero temperatures the NAACP
came to the rescue of New Mex
leo family of seven enroute by
motor from that state to Virginia.
The family was destitute, without
food, lodging or fuel for their auto.
A call to Rev. Floyd Massey,
Jr., from the family head revealed
the plight of the family. Rev. Mas
sey called NAACP treasurer Rob-
ert M. Patterson. He called state
NAACP president Donald Lewis
who went out to find the family
which had parked its car on
super-marl0et parking lot.
When Lewis found the family
the temperature was around z be-
low. He took them to Crispus At
tucks Home, where lodgings for
the night and food was secured
and welfare agencies were alerted.
The head of the family, Stanley
Clayton, 43 of Alamogordo, New
Mexico told a marrying tale of the
bad luck which had plagued the
family which included a highway
accident which took the life of a
son Thomas Clayton, near Spring
field, Mo-, and demolished the auto
in which they were travelling.
People in Springfield, aroused by
the familys plight gave them the
auto which brought them to Min
nesota.
Questioned why he took the in
direct route to Virginia Clayton
said he decided to take his wife
who has been suffering from a
tumor in her head, to the Mayo
Clinic in Rochester.
Enroute to Rochester they
missed highway signs and ended up
in Owatonna. A minister there told
them to call Rev. Massey Ia class
mate of his) when they arrived in
st. Paul.
This Clayton did, and the call re-
suited in the family receiving sue
cor on a night when they could
have easily suffered severe physi-
cal harm in the below zero wealth
er.
Slayton's former home was in
Virginia. He had been employed in
New Mexico as a construction
worker but had decided to return
to Virginia.
A photo of the family appears
elsewhere on this page.
Appearance of an account of the
family's plight in the st. Paul DIS
PATCH Tuesday resulted in an
avalanche of offers of help in
money and warm clothes from st.
Paul citizens.

When police officers Lawrence
Mcdonald, Donald Mars, William
Roppeau, Robert Page, William
Schmidt, Edward Buchanan, and
detective Earl Harken arrived at
the scene they found Dilworth I'M
conscious on the floor.
Mrs. Carol Kremer, 654 Ken
meth, wife of the owner, was told
by Dilworth, at gun point, to hand
over the money, Mrs. Kremer told
the bandit she had to get an order
from the kitchen and with his per-
mission she left.
Once in the back room she in
formed her husband, Charles, who
went out and motioned for Dill
worth to leave refusing to give him
any money.
In the meantime, Mrs. Kremer
ran to the bar next door to sum-
mon police.
After the restaurant owners re-
fused to turn over the money from
the till, Dilworth then demanded
the six customers present to hand
over their billfolds.
Oscar Lingert, 80, of 3O55 Wood
bridge had some words with him
and, as a result, was hit in the
face with the pistol. Angered by
the assault, Lingert struggled with
Dilworth and wrestled him to the
floor. The rest of the patrons piled
on and pummeled him into uncon-
seriousness.
Dilworth was "out" on the floor
when police officers arrived. Res
taurant patrons told police the
would-be hold-up man seemed un-
der the influence Of narcotics.
Held in Jail, Dilworth will be
charged with attempted robbery
this week.

Well Liked YOungster:
Teen-Ager Loses
Life In Chase
Of Stolen Cor

Thomas Light, 16, son of Mr..
and Mrs. Norman P. Light, 1870
Abel, st. Paul was killed shortly
before 8 am, Sunday, January IA,
when the car he was driving
crashed into a Iowa highway pa
troll roadblock at Hampton, Iowa.
The boy was killed when a car
he had stolen in Mortified, Mime
sofa crashed into a police car
blocking Highway 65, near Hamp-
ton, Iowa after a chase which the
Iowa authorities estimated the
speeds up to 95 miles an hour.
The chase, through four road
blocks, was set up after the auto
was spotted by the police at Mason
City, Iowa.
Thomas was a junior and Wash
ington high school where he was
apparently doing OK, with his
studies. He worked part time on a
downtown parking lot.
Apparently his father told this
newspaper he feared he was going
to get in trouble about a relatively
minor infraction in connection with
a parked car which occurred We'd
nesday, Jan. 10, and decided to
leave home.
Thursday he did not report for
work and apparently decided to
leave town. An investigation re-
vealed he purchased a bus ticket
to Mortified, MINI.
He left that town in a stolen
car. At Mason City he ran out of
gas. After having the tank filled
at gas station he drove away
without paying, and the Iowa
highway patrol was alerted.
He ran through at least three
roadblocks and after a highway
chase by police and the Iowa high
way patrol he was killed when the
stolen car he was driving careened
into the fourth road-block.
Among st. Paul teen-agers
Light was quiet but popular and
well-liked. He was a member of
Pilgrim Baptist church.
Funeral services were held at
Brooks Funeral Home, 1852 Rondo
at 2 pm, Wednesday, January IT,
with Rev. Floyd Massey, Jr.. offic-
iating.
Internment was Oakland ceme-
terry.
The family preferred that men,
orials be sent to the Pilgrim Bap-
fist church Educational.

The latest dust-up, more politi-
cal than diplomatic, is already
sending President Kennedy and
other New Frontiersmen scurry-
ing away from the old club on
Massachusetts, Ave. They suspect
that Rowan's rejection may have
less to do with his intellectual
qualifications than to the fact that
he's a Negro.
The White House, quick on the
upbeat, promptly announced that
J. Kenneth Galbraith, the us.
ambassador to India, had dropped
his own membership. And Gal
braith said that this action auto
matically knocked out the Presi-
dents application for membership,
since he was its sponsor.
Rowan, a Negro who has never
carried any kind of chip on his
shoulder, said he certainly wasn't
going to raise the race issue over
his rejection. IF it is the intellec-
tual judgment of the membership
that I do not merit membership, 1"
he said, II can do no more than
note this judgment and wish the
club we'll"
Inside word is that the Cosmos
bigwigs who voted Rowan down
argued that if the club were going
to break the color line it ought
to start somewhere else, with some
less controversial Negro.

Appointments
Apparently, they didn't think
they could reasonably argue that
he didn't measure up to their i'm

ington press corps rank Rowan as
one of the Administrations real
stars, certainly in the field of pub
lie affairs. He unquestionably

 Tn quick succession, Senate leaders postponed action, prob ably until next week, and Re publicans in the House moved to force a vote in there first.
 An adverse vote in either House on the proposal for the new cabinet post would kill it. Pro- ponents say they have the votes to approve 1t in the Senate, but acknowledged there is trouble in the House. They had planned to seek the first test in the Senate.
 Kennedy has said he plans to name Robert Weaver, present housing chief and a Negro, to the new cabinet post if it is ere ated.
