groes.

the United States District
Court, a Negro, is chairman OF
the group of business and pro-
fessional men.
The committee - listed by
spokesman Is the first of its
kind in the Nation-plans to
concern itself largely with
companies and projects which
receive Federal contracts
grants and loans. But it also
plans to deal with other en-
ployers.
The committee, which has
no official footing, aims tc
seek voluntary compliance with
President Kennedy's executive
order for strict enforcement oil
nondiScrimination clauses ir
Federal Government contracts
with private industry.
Committees Goals
Among its goals are: Assign.
ment of more Negro youths tt
apprentice training in tradt
schools in certain construction
crafts. Special training insti,
tutes to speed the development
of Negroes in certain skillS
The committee will depend
on suggestion and negotiation

the stewardess recalled ruefully.
'I called my mother as soon
as the things arrived to tell
her about it. Boy, was she
madl She said she didn't see
how I could be so stupid"
Despite the maternal repri-
mand, the girl still hadn't quite
learned her lesson.
Two weeks later, when she
returned to her apartment at
lis am. from a late flight,
a salesman was waiting.
HE had delivered a set of
pots and pans my roommate
had ordered, and he sat around
waiting for me to come home, "
she said. II think he'd been
there a couple Of hours"
It was worth the wait. When
he left at $3.50 am, the dapper
young salesman had sold the
stewardess five heavy, shiny,
stainless steel pots and pans
with individual covers, a cookie
sheet. pie plate and two cake
pans, with a set Of plastic
dishes and a cookbook thrown
in free"
The total price, including
carrying charges, was $183.94.
The same products would cost
about sos in a department
store, but with a little shop
ping around, equal quality can
be found for as little as $50.
Before he left, the salesman
sold the third roommate a set

showing 1t to q tenant. But
she was technically a guest of
the tenant, so there wasn't
much we could do. The police
tell us we have to prove they're
actually knocking on doors
without an appointment"
The apartment manager did
manage to bring one persistent
solicitor to justice by calling
the police, signing a complaint
and then testifying at the trial.
"The Judge fined him $40 and
then suspended the fine" she
said. But at least that particu-
lar salesman hasn't been back
to bother her tenants.
Bureau Is Concerned
The Better Business Bureau
is naturally concerned with the
sharp practices of some door
to door outfits. The gyp artists
inevitably cast suspicion on the
reputable firms whose statesmen
offer good products at honest
prices.
I The Washington bureau gets
hundreds Of complaints and in
quiries about door to : door
statesmen every year, an official
said. One thing that particu-
larry upsets the BIB is the oc-
casional report that statesmen
claim to be approved by the
Better Business Bureau"
I'VE do not endorse or recon-
mend any product or firm" the
official said. "The most we will
tell an inquirer is that q certain
firm co-operates with the bu-
reau.
(The bureau will, Of course,
tell a caller If it has had any
complaints about a particular
firm.)
Members are absolutely for
hidden to use The bureaus

ing. If a salesn L shows q

they've got to grow up some
time. If they think they car
be irresponsible and get away
with it--why, they might &c
right out and buy a $4,000 con-
vertible."
1t isn't as If the girls aren't
warned. Most Government
agencies make q point of ad-
vising new employees about the
high cost of living in Wash
ington. They are urged to deal
only with reputable merchants,
and to take things easy in the
spending line until they see
how much it's going to cost
them for just the everyday
necessities.
Some apartment managers
try to protect their tenants as
best they can--if only to make
sure they will have some money
left when the rent comes due.

Clubs Support
Equal Rights

Members of Maryland's Con-
gressional delegation have been
urged by the executive board of
the Maryland Young Democratic
Clubs to give their full support
to the administrations Civil
Rights proposals.
The action resulted from the
unanimous adoption of a resolu-
ton in which the board called
on the legislators to support
bills which would empower the
Attorney General to institute
law suits to guarantee freedom
and equality of opportunity.
These measures include adop-
ton of an enforceable fair en-
ployment program, protection Of
the right to vote for all citizens,
provision of places of equal
access for the general public
and presidential cancellation of
federal programs involving dis
elimination.
