Opportunity, which Is headed
by Vice President Johnson. The
committee issued a report ear
lier this week claiming it had
made Significant progress"
While praising the admins
tration's policy declarations
against employment discrimi-
nation, the NAACP said per-
formance has fallen short. It
warned the administration not
to "appease the traditional
Southerners at the expense of
Americas Negro citizens"
If officials mean to achieve
equal employment opportunity,
the NAACP said, "they must
decide to stand up firmly
against the threats, the bland
iShments. the blackmail and
the cunning conspiracies of
those who are opposed to fair
employment practices"
Cites Some Effectiveness
Mr.. Hill said the Presidents
committee has been effective"
in combating job bias in Fed
eral employment. But in en-
ployment by Government con-
tractors, he charged, there has
been an occasional symbolic
breakthrough but no real COM
pliance and no significant
alteration" in job discrimina-
ton practices.
President Kennedy estab-
lished the committee by execu-
tive order a year ago to COM
bat job discrimination in en-
ployment by Federal agencies
and by Government contrac-
tors. The committee works
mostly through persuasion, but
can recommend cancellation of
contracts for flagrant VIOLA
tions of the anti-discrimina-
ton policy.
See Few New Opportunities
The NAACP assailed the
committees reliance on the
plans for Progress" program.
More than so leading contrac-
tors have signed up for this
program. agreeing voluntarily
to make special eforts to pro-
mote equal employment oppor-
tunity.

He's Anti-Red

Noise Tshombe, president OF
secessionist Katanga Province
in the Congo, reaffirmed yes
terday what he termed its
strong anti Communist stand
and answering dedication to
the moral value of Western
civilization"
Mr.. Tshombe made the state
ment in a cable to Senator
Gore, Democrat of Tennessee,
chairman of the Senate For
eign Relations Committees At
rican Affairs Subcommittee.
Senator Gore told the Senate
he had received the message
and any of his colleagues were
welcome to look at it. Senator
Gore did not read it to the
Senator place it in the Con-
greSSional Record.
Mr.. Tshombe said that a re-
cent newspaper article told OF
reports reaching Washington
that he had been maneuvering
with Communist factions inside
the Congo and had been in con-
tact with Soviet diplomats.
II think it is important not
only to deny categorically those
untrue allegations" he said,
but also to seriously question
why the sources of that cam
paign have chosen for such q
move (the) very delicate mo-
ment of my negotiations with
Adoula."
He was referring to Cyrille
Adoula, Prime Minister of the
Central Congo government,
with whom he has been nego-
tiating for a unification agree
ment that would end the Ka-
tanga secession.

Usually mass effects of
azaIeas are obtained In COM
bination with dogwoods, flow
lering cherries and other small
trees. The bloom Of these
trees helps to give the effect
of great height. but it is also
probable that the. light shade
protects the azalea bloom from
hot sun and extends the flow

under tall-growing oaks this
Is true.
It was mentioned above that
the azaleas might well be
planted from three to six feet
apart to give them space in

the minimum spacing for most
kinds. Even the Kurumes may
have q spread of three feet.
Others win fill In four or even
