the Attorney Generals year end
report on civil rights.
Clarence Mitchell, Washington
representative of the NAACP, said
in statement:
THE attorney generals report
has a little too much sweetness
about how wonderfully the states
are cooperating in suppressing VOL
ence and not enough light on what
the government will do to halt the
violation of constitutional rights
and shocking brutality documented
in the commissions reports"
wilkins Disappointed"
Meanwhile in New York, Roy
Wilkins, executive secretary Of the
NAACP voiced disappointment
that the Kennedy administration
had not done more to aid civil
rights and half discrimination.
Wilkins also asserted that the
racial bloc in Congress cannot be
appeased: It has to be challenged
and defeated"
In his report to the annual NAA-
CP meeting, Wilkins commended
President Kennedy for personal
feelings and concern for improve
ment of conditions but:
1. Said he was sorely disappoint-
ed by the failure Of President
Kennedy to issue the Compromised
executive order forbidding racial
discrimination in federally assisted
housing"
2. Called on the administration
to sponsor civil rights legislation
promised in the 1860 Democratic
platform.
3. Asserted that while school de-
segregation proceeded without VOL
ence in 1861, at also proceeded on
an extremely token basis" He said
that there are still nearly $780,
900 Negro children in segregated
school systems and three states
South Carolina and Miss
issippi-remain completely segre-
gated.
4. Praised freedom riders and
said they rendered a service to
freedom in 1861 by dramatizing
for all the world to see the denial
of equality in interstate travel"

viewed as a disgrace to the entire
Twin City area;

emblematic Of racist terror that 10

DR.. Mordeca1 Johnson, president
emeritus Of Howard University will
speak at Temple Israel in Mime
apolis, Friday, Feb. Q.
Carl T. Rowan, deputy assistant
secretary Of State whose black
balling by the Hly-white Cosmos,
intellectual club in Washington,
DC. has created a international
stir as great as the Marian An
derson-DAR controversy. He Is or
has been q member Of at least two
predominantly white membership
organizations, Sigma Delta Chi and
the Minnesota Press Club.
An attempt to explain Rowan's
exclusion as something beside his
race was succinctly bombed by a
southerner, Howard K. Smith, late
Of CHS and now Of ABC who as
serted In resigning the club: "As
Mr.. Rowan's qualifications are not
merely good but outstanding-he
is a respected member Of my own
profession-I am quite sure that
whatever pretext may have been
argued, the grounds for his rejec-
ton are primarily racial.

meth GaIbraith.
Galbraith's resignation invan-
dates the application Of member
ship of President John F. Kennedy
who had been put up for member
ship by the Ambassador also.
Rowan's comment on the Cosmos
club rejection was a classic. He
commented, obviously with tongue
in cheek:
1T is my understanding that
this is Washington's club Of in
tellectuals. If it is the intellectual
judgement of the membership COM
mittee that do not merit men,

protests against organized labC
issue.
1.-THE two most dynamic al
country are the labor movement
and the Negro freedom move
ment," DIR. Martin Luther King
declared here as he urged the ALL
CLIO to increase its efforts to help
erase all vestiges of racial discrim-
nation in American life including
labor unions.
The famed Baptist pastor is
president of the Southern Christian
Leadership Conference and as such
is a leader of the non-violent Ne
gro resistance to racial barriers in
the nation. He is president emer-
titus of the Montgomery Improve
ment Association, whose boycott
succeeded in ending segregation on
buses in the Alabama city.
DR.. King told the delegates that
the labor movement "undeniably
has done more than other
forces in American society" to
wipe out discrimination.
aid from real friends in labor
has often come when the flames
of struggle heighten," he said.
Negroes are a solid compO-
nent within the labor movement
and o reliable bulwark for Ia
boris whole program, and should
expect more from 1t exactly as
q member of q family expects
more from his relatives than he
expects from his neighbors," he
declared
Recalling the history Of struggle
that has marked the American Ia
Dor movement, DR.. King observed
that Negroes find this history
mirrors their own experience"
I'VE are confronted by powerful
forces telling us to rely on the good
will and understanding Of those
who profit by exploiting u.s." he
said. They deplore our discomfort,
they resent our will to organize,
30 that we may guarantee that
humanity will prevail and equality
will be exacted.
They are shocked that action
organizations, sit-ins, civil disobed-
fence and protests are becoming
our everyday tools, just as strikes
demonstrations and union organic
alton became yours to insure that
bargaining power genuinely existed
on both sides of the table"
Thus, he said, "labor's historic
tradition Of moving forward to
create vital people as consumers
and citizens has become our own
tradition, and for the same rea-
sons"
Negroes, he noted, are almost
entirely a working people, with
needs identical with labors needs.
THAT is why Negroes support
labor's demands and fight laws
which curb labor" he said. THAT
is WHY the labor-hater and labor
batter is virtually always a twin
headed creature, spewing and-Ne-
gro epithets and anti-labor propa-
panda" from his two mouths.
But, he added, ITO say that we
are friends would be an empty
platitude If we fail to behave as
friends and honestly look to weak
nesses in our relationship" Among
these weaknesses, DR.. King main
tanned, are racial bars against Ne
gro membership in certain unions
and denial of apprenticeship train
ing and vocational education 10
Negroes in some areas.
In an obvious reference to
AFI1CIO Vice Pres. A. Philip Ran
dolph as "a Negro leader who has
a reputation of purity and honesty
which has benefited the whole la
Dor movement" DR.. King urged
thoughtful examination" of Ran
dolph's criticism of labors efforts
to end discrimination within Its
own ranks.

Tran-Lux theater. The In
terms" in turn, is a cheaply
sensational fiction that pre-
sentS the medical profession in
a light that might well Sicken
even the AMA'S harsheSt critics.
The films setting is a large
city hospital and its characters
a group of medical neophytes
and nurses who are addicted
to alley cat morals and alcohol.
Thanks to its own excuses and
one of the seasons worst ag-
gregates of acting. The In
terms" is more a caricature of
Hollywood than of medicine.
The quick but confident dag
nosis of the film is that it was
made strictly for boxoffice pur-
poses which it very well may
achieve.
In a tasteless way, it herds
a mass of facelesS and largely
incompetent young performers
through what purports to be
the last phases of a doctors
education. In terms of Direc-
tor David Swift'S idea of the
proper dramatic stress, the ma
jor course seems to relate how
to sprawl and maui at parties.
These are get-togetherS where
the medical young of both
sexes may recover from the ter
rible exhaustion of 24-hour
shifts of being insulted by SEN
ior surgeons, obstetrical wiz
ards, and at least inferentially
by moviegoers who know when
they are being bilked.
A comedy note intrudeS into

sense that maybe it ought to
say something noble about
medicine, as in the case of the
young doctor played by James
