Fraser Human
Rights Group
Met AUGUST /

The Volunteer Civil and Human
Rights Committee for Fraser
called an informal meeting at the
Fraser For Congress Headquart-
ers, 1887 Hennepin Av., last We'd
nesday. Meeting with them were
the candidate, Donald Fraser and
his campaign manager, Norman
Sherman. The aim Of the gather
ing was to outline a positive sup
port program.
With chairman Margaret Benton
presiding the group drew up a pro-
gram aimed at the attraction OF
voters in the district who, like
themselves, have a primary inter
est in civil and human rights. It
called for extensive projection Of
what they called "the proper i'm
age" Of candidate Fraser. And it
provided for such things as ex-
tensive lawn sign coverage; coffee
parties, door-to door canvasses
fund raising, and a mass meeting
with a noted civil rights PERSONAL
ty as main speaker.
Many of the 20 members present
at the meeting voiced confidence
that Frasers unwaivering position
on civil rights and other important
liberal issues would render him a
valuable addition to Minnesota
congressional delegation.
The general atmosphere of the
gathering was one of both confid-
ence and determination.
