State Conference meet to review
accomplishments made in 1862 and

activity in 1868.
Workshops covering Education,
Apprenticeship Training, Housing,
Legal Redress, Membership and
Fund Raising will serve as points
of discussion for the delegates.
DR.. John A. Morsell, NAACP
national official will emphasize in
his speech the Importance of
NAACP memberships and contri-
buttons to the Freedom Fund thus
making necessary funds available
for the continued fight against dis
elimination.
The Housing workshop will draw
special attention due to the newly
enacted Minnesota Fair Housing
Act.
Individuals have questioned the
constitutionality Of the new hous-
ing law making it necessary for
the NAACP to start preparing
plans just in case the law has to
be tested in the courts. The work.

Council, in company with John
Pettiford, president Of the Oxford
Booster Club, met with Frank
Loss, commissioner Of Parks and
Recreation and Public Buildings,
and members of his staff on We'd
nesday, October IT, to iron out
differences over the physical fit
ness for youth program which was
recently introduced.
Said Mr.. Lazenberry "As stated
by the Department, this proposal
is a special ordinance to provide
additional budget funds Of 81 1,200,-
900. for the Department Of Parks
and Recreation and Public Build
ings for a Bituminous Program, by
permitting an increase of the tax
ing limit for the year 1868 only. 1t
will cost each taxpayer approx
mately $2.49 for each 500, he now
pays. There will be no additional
cost"
North Central Council took the
position that the Department was
morally obligated to include the
Oxford playground in the program.
Rev. Floyd Massey, pastor Of Pill
grim Baptist Church, stated. I'VE
cannot in conscience support this
special ordinance if we are not to
participate in the benefits of the
program that requires an increase
in our taxes"
After a vigorous discussion COM
missioner Loss agreed to a second
meeting held on Friday, October
10, at the Oxford playground to
further explore the question.
At this meeting it was decided
by Robert A. Lobdell, superintend-
ent of Recreation, and Bernard
Edmunds, senior Landscape Archi-
tect that the two tennis courts
which were requested by the North
Central Community Council could
be accommodated as well as a sec
ond basketball court.
Mr.. Lobdell promised to recon-
mend their decision to Mr.. Loss
Immediately. Mr.. Lazenberry and
Mr.. Pettiford represented their
groups at this meeting and con-
ferred with the committee on the
questions at hand.
Later in a statement to members
of the advisory committee Of North
Central Community Council, Mr..
said, when Mr.. Loss
includes these new additions in his
schedule for the physical fitness
for youth program, we will have
no choice but to support this spec
ial ordinance.
"Since the benefits from this
program are unquestionably vital
and important, we urge the people
of our area as well as throughout
the city to go to the polls and vote
in favor Of It,"

SHE, TOO, HAD
a PARKING PROBLEM

Oklahoma City (ANP) - An
Oklahoma City woman, like driv-

parking problem. Her mistake,
however, was the selection of a

Police said she parked a car
with a stolen license plate, loaded
with stolen goods, in the sheriff's
parking lot, in the path of a police
man writing parking tickets.

Another Factor In Alleged Free Time

but which does not commonly appear in

whelming majority Of factory workers lived

tories in which they were employed. Farm

koned at 80" hours a week 80" which can

FBI Action
On Race Talk
Is Explained
BY the Associated Press


The FBI was assigned, to OBJ
tain recordings OF two recent
speeches by Governor-ele
George Wallace Of Alabama for
informative, not inveStigative
purposes, the Justice Depart
ment says.
A department spokesman said
a radio station supplied the FBI
with a tape recording Of a
speech delivered November 81
by Mr.. Wallace before the
Jackson (Miss.) Citizens Coun-
Gil.
Attempts to obtain a similar
recording of a speech made by
Mr.. Wallace the same day to
the Mississippi Legislature were
unsuccessful because the ad-
dress was not recorded, the
spokesman added yesterday.
He described the FBI action
as consistent with its role of
obtaining information on sub
jects in which the department
has an interest.
AS in the case Of Mr.. Wallace,
he added, the information
sometimes involves statements
by public officials but involves
no investigation Of crime.
In the speeches, Mr.. Wallace
expressed support Of Mississippi
Gov. Ross r. Barnett in his
defiance of Federal court Or
ders to desegregate the Uni
versity of Mississippi. Mr.. Wal
lace also renewed his own
promise to defy any similar Or
der.
The department official dis
cussed the speech-recording in
cident In response to news
mems questions after Mr.. Wal
lace complained about the use
of the FBI to get the tape.
