respective cities and rs others de-
cided to remain in Jail fasting in
protest to segregation, the arrests
were being protested all the way
to the White House.
The Rev. Martin Luther King,
Jr., the spirit behind the demon
strations here, also disclosed that
he had received a telephone call
from Hartford, Conn, informing
him that the Council of Churches
there was seeking to recruit rs
more persons for further pilgrim
ages to this city.
King, president Of the Southern
Christian Leadership Conference
which is conducting a massive reg
istration vote drive for Negroes
throughout the South, visited the
clergymen in Jail here. He him
self has been jailed three times
for leading demonstrations here.
After visiting the clergymen
in jail here, King said he hoped
the arrests would prick the con-
sciences Of people everywhere
and that President Kennedy will
take some positive step to aid
the Indignation fight.
The 70 clergymen and laypeople,
representing various faiths were
arrested after they continued pray
ing in front of the Albany city hall
when Police Chief Laurie Prit-
chett ridiculed them by telling
them to go back to your own
cities and cleanse the sins Of seq
regation in your own back yards"
Indirectly, tn refore, Pritchett
acknowledged segregation to be
sinful. A pro-segregation crowd of
about 500 whites cheered him as
he spoke.
In Washington, Sen. Jacob X.
Javits on the Senate floor de-
nounced the arrests and the
situation in Albany as "absOlut-
ely outrageous and disgusting"
He said the falling Of the DOM
onstrators for opposing racial
segregation was shaming Amer
lea before the world.
Javits took on singlehandedly
Sens. Richard B. Russell Of Georgia
and Herman E. Talmadge of IGeor-
gia, both Dixiecrat pro-segrega-
tionists from Georgia.
Russell tried to defend the AL
bany police force, while Talmadge
tried to pin responsibility for the
racial unrest in, the city on the
Congress of Racial Equality.
He resorted to an old Dixiecrat
tactic by saying a study he had
conducted showed most members
of CORE to have subversive re-
cords"
But Sen. Javits virtually told
them that equal protection guar
anteed by the us. Constitution
was the issue. He added that the
treatment accorded the ministers
in Albany was "un-American and
inhuman" Javits also failed Con-

sition. 1t is my judgment that
this plan is sound both for the
United Nations and for its
These bonds will be
repaid with interest at the rate
Of approximately $40 million a
year, as part Of the regular as
sessment. Every nation-in-
cluding the Soviet Union-will
thus be required to pay its fair
share or lose its vote. And the
United States will be obligated,
in the long run, to meet only
80 per cent Of these special
costs instead of the nearly so
per cent we are presently con-
tributing to the special opera
tions Of the United Nations.
I ask that the Congress act
now to back the United Nations
by authorizing the purchase Of
these bonds. Failure to act
would serve the interests Of the
Soviet Union, which has been
particularly opposed to the
operation in the Congo and
which voted against this plan
as part of the consistent Com
munist effort to undermine the
United Nations and undercut
its new secretary general. For
without the bond issue, either
the United Nations executive
arm will wither or the United
States will be compelled to pay
a larger share of the costs of
operation than is reasonable
for any one member of an in
ternational organization.
The central purpose of the
United Nations is to keep the
peace wherever possible and to
restore the peace whenever it
is broken.
The United Nations has re-
'ceived the support of both po-
litical parties since its incep-
ton.
BY emergency action the
United Nations turned back
aggression in Korea.
BY emergency action, the
United Nations brought a halt
to war in the Middle East
over five years ago and ever
since has safeguarded the ar
miStice lines.
BY emergency action the
United Nations has prevented
large-scale civil war and avoided
great-power intervention in the
Congo.
1t is impossible to say where
or when the United Nations
may be called on again for
emergency action to preserve
or restore the peace.
We shall spend this year
nearly one-half of the Federal
budget for national defense.
This authorization represents
an investment of one-tenth of
Evening star., 1962-01-30

1 per cent Of that budget in
the peace-keeping capacity Of
the United Nations.
Whatever its imperfections,
the United Nations effective
ness and existence are an es-
sential part Of the machinery
to bring peace out of this world
Of danger and discord.
I earnestly hope that the
Congress will give early and IA
vorable consideration to this re-
quest.

BOND MESSAGE TEXT III
Kennedy Cites u. N. Financial Need

FOLLOWING Is the tert of
President Kennedy'S message
to Congress today on the
purchase OF United Nations
bonds:
I am transmitting herewith
for the consideration of the
Congress a suggested bill ito
promote the foreign policy of
the United States by author
izing the purchase of United
Nations bonds and the appro-
priation of funds therefor"
This bill would authorize and
appropriate up to 500 million
for the purchase of United
Nations bonds.
The United Nations is faced
with a financial crisis due
largely to extraordinary ex-
penditures which it incurred
in fulfilling the pledges in It's
Charter to secure peace, pro-
gress and human rights. I
regard 1t as vital to the inter-
ests of our country and to the
maintenance of peace that the
capacity of the United Nations
to act for peace not be inhibited
by a lack of financial resources.
Fund at Zero
Some members have failed to
pay special assessments levied
for peace-keeping operations in
the Middle East and in the
Congo, claiming that these
assessments are not binding
upon them. The shortage of
operating funds thus created
has reduced the working cap
ital fund of the United Nations
to zero and compelled it to hold
back on the payment of bills
and borrow from United Ma
tions agencies.
Prudence and good manage
ment require all institutions
public or private, national or
internationally keep their
affairs in good financial order.
The Secretary General of the
United Nations, therefore, urged
the adoption Of, and the mem
bers approved by a large ma
jority, a three-point plan to
relieve the cash deficit and to
avoid the need for makeshift
financing of emergency opera
tions designed to keep or re-
store the peace:
Point One is to cover antici-
pated expenses for the United
Nations Operation in the
Congo and for the United Ma
tions Emergency Force in the
Middle East through the end
Of the present fiscal year. The
Sixteenth General Assembly
approved a new appropriation
Evening star., 1962-01-30

dollars, and contingent liabili-,
ties Of billions more. The quail
ity of administration Of these
programs has profound effects
on land values and tax rev.
enues in local communities
throughout the country. The
operations Of these programs
figure Importantly in the vi
tality of the general economy.
The policies that govern them
play a major role in determi-
nations of national fiscal and
monetary policy. Their man
agement in the most effective
and co-ordinated way possible,
therefore. will yield economies
in the broad sense far out
weighing the amount involved
in the administrative cost of
their operations. And even in
the latter area, I am convinced
that economy and efficiency
will be Importantly enhanced
by the improved coordination
which this reorganization plan
will make possible.
Urgent Need Stressed
For all the reasons herein
set forth, I have concluded that
the creation Of a Department
Of Urban Affairs and Housing
is urgently needed to permit me
to discharge most effectively
the responsibilities in this area
placed upon the President by
the Constitution and by the
statutes respecting these mat
ters enacted by the Congress.
After investigation, I have
found and hereby declare that
each reorganization included in
Reorganization Plan No. / OF
1862 is necessary to accomplish
one or more Of the purposes set
forth in section 2(a) of the
Reorganization Act Of 1949, as
amended. I have also found
and hereby declare that by
reason of these reorganizations
it is necessary to include in the
reorganization plan provisions
for the appointment and COM
pensation of the new officers
specified in section 2 of the
reorganization plan. The rates
of compensation fixed for these
officers are, respectively, those
which have found to prevail
in respect of comparable Off
GERS in the executive branch of
the government.
Although the taking effect of
the reorganizationS provided
for in the reorganization plan
will not in itself result in i'm
mediate savings, the improve
ment achieved in administra-
ton will in the future allow the
performance of necessary SER
vices at a greater savings than
present operations would per-
NIT. An termination of these
savings in advance Of actual
experience is not practicable.
Evening star., 1962-01-30

for these purposes, assessed
against all members.
Point Two is to- resolve all
doubt as to whether delinquent
members must pay special as
sessments for the Congo
(ONUC) and Middle East
(UNEF operations, or face the
loss Of their voting rights. To
this end. the United Nations
General Assembly requested
from the International Court
of Justice an advisory opinion
as to whether these special as
sessments, like regular assess
ments. are expenses Of the
organization" legally binding
on all members by the terms
of the United Nations Charter.
Decision This Year
It is the opinion of the
United States that special as
sessments voted by a two
thirds majority of the General
Assembly are obligatory. We
anticipate a decision by early
summer of this year. If our
view. which is shared by most
of the members of the United
Nations, is confirmed by the
court, then all members will
have to pay their dues or lose
their right to vote in the Cen
eral Assembly. 1t is only fair
that members that participate
in the privileges of member
ship should participate also in
its obligations.
Even If the courts opinion
goes as we believe it should, the
United Nations would still be
faced with a serious cash prob
lem, aggravated by any further
delays in collecting back dues
from those who have not been
willing to pay the special as
sessments. Consequently,
Point Three of the United
Nations financial plan is to &C
quire a special fund to relieve
the present cash deficit by pay
ing off current bills and debts,
and by setting aside a reason
able reserve to help finance
United Nations peace-keeping
operations in future emer-
gencieS.
For this purpose the General
Assembly has authorized the
secretary general to issue 5000
million worth of United Nations
bonds payable at 2 per cent
interest over a 25-year period
with annual repayments
charged against the budget of
the United Nations. All men,
bers are assessed a share of
that budget.
If this program is successful,
the United Nations will be in
a vastly improved financial po-

the Public Housing Admins
tration and it's officers.
Because Of its magnitude in
our economy and the immedi-
acy Of its impact on our peo-
pie, housing has been and will
continue to be the heart of this
complex Of relaxed programs.
In recognition of this fact, the
plan provides for the transfer
of the Federal Housing Ad-
ministration as an entity to
the new department. Provision
is also made for the continu-
ance Of the existing office of
Federal Housing Commissioner,
appointed by the President
with the advice and consent
of the Senate. The Commits
sioner would continue to head
the Federal Housing Admins
tration under the supervision
and direction Of the Secretary
as head of the department.
Finally. in view Of its special
legal status as a mixed-owner-
ship corporation, the Federal
National Mortgage Association
would be transferred to the de-
partment without change. The
Secretary would serve as
Chairman Of the Board of the
Association. as the Housing and
Home Finance Administrator
now does. No change in the
organization or functions of
the association within the de-
partment affecting its second
ary market operations could be
made unless the Secretary
finds that such change would
not adversely affect the rights
and interests of owners of out
standing common stock of the
association.
Seeks Full Efficiency
In accordance with the spirit
and intent of the Reorganiza-
tion Act of 1949, as amended,
this plan promotes the better
execution Of the laws, the more
effective management of the
executive branch of the Gov
ernment, and the expeditions
administration Of the public
business. It aims to promote
economy and increase efficiency
to the fullest extent practicable.
It's significance in the pursuit
of these purposes must be
judged in the light Of the mag
nitude and significance of the
programs affected.
The various programs with
which the new department
would be charged involve Fed
eral investments of billions of
