benton anu marry OaVlS.
Mrs. Benton, 4219 Portland Av.,
has been active in human rights
projects and related civic activities
in the community since coming to
the Twin Cities more than 10 years
ago.
She is presently secretary Of the
Minnesota Council Of Civil and
Human Rights, a statewide organ
izauon in the field.
In the political arena she is
best known for her craftsmanship
Of the effective human rights
group that backed Congressman
Donald Fraser.
Harry Davis Is better known as
the number 1 man Of the Upper
Midwest in the Gold Glove boxing
program. But he has also been a
fearless fighter in the civil rights
ring. He has been active with the
NAACP and several other organ
izations interested in race rela-
tons.
In the joint statement issued by
the co-chairmen it was stated:
The main purpose of this COM
mittee is to focus a wider, more
accurate image Of Mayor Nafta-
Inns interest and concern for hu-
man relations"
Mayor Naftalin," it continued,
"a professor of Sociology, by
training, has been a behind-the-
scenes influence of many Of the
human relation improvements
measures in the community and
state. AS secretary to then Mayor
Hubert Humphrey, he helped es-
tablish the Mayors Commission
on Human Relations, the first in
the nation.
Then as Commissioner Of Ad-
ministration, he worked with Gov.
Freeman for enactment Of the
Fair Employment Practices Act.
"Since becoming Mayor, he has
continued to pursue these goals
most Of the time without fanfare.
When the Fair Housing law was
about to go into effect, he made
a very strong statement Of public
policy before the City Council urg-
ing acceptance and emplementa-
ton in the city. He then called in
representative groups Of all hu-
man relations agencies to help de-
velope concrete plans and means
of implementaton.

some Of the die hard segregation
lists who were identified with the
previous effort.
The scheme calls for the forma-
ton of a third party, a sort Of re-
Of the Didecrat party
though it will probably have some
other name like States Rights
party.
Recalling the narrow margin by
which President Kennedy gained
access to the White House, and an
a close and bitter fight
between Kennedy who will be the
Democratic candidate and his Re-
publican opponent, the third party
hope to win control Of
enough electoral votes to sway the
election either way.
Their price for giving either
major party the needed votes to
assure victory will be the appoint
ment Of segregationists to certain
key posts who're they can effec-
lively erase some Of the more odi-
GUS civil rights rulings, laws, pro-
visions and orders, retard the pro-
gress Of integrauon and reduce the
push of such powerful civil rights
as the NAACP.

Good News From Rhodesia: The
announcement by Sir Roy We'll
enslIy, Rhodesian Federation prem
ier that he plans to retire from
politics is good news. This white
African racist who tries to plug
up the dam of black African pro-
gress apparently has given up! He
ought to move to South Africa.
When Britain was forced to give
Nyasaland and Northern Rhodesia
their independence, the death
lnell of the Welensky's was tolled.
The Mime apolis HATE
WHITE PEOPLE cult took over
the Minneapolis NAACP special
executive board meeting Monday
night to force the organization
into an action designed to embar-
rass the candidacy Of incumbent
mayor Arthur F. Naftalin.
Some of the gang doing the
most talking were not even paid
NAACP members and some of
them make their living begging
money from influential whites for
their various projects.
1t will be a sorry day for racial
relations and harmony in Mime
apolis if this gang ever gets in
control of any of the organiza-
tions which have been helping
Minneapolis become one of the out
standing cities in the nation in
interracial cooperation and pro-
gress.
A prime mover in the cult is a
Negro who has earned his entire
living for the past few years off
whites who have been sold on
trying to integrate an area of

There is another way to truth: by the

who comes once in ten generations. He

Plane Crash
In France
Fatal to 40

Ply, France, Sept. IL (APD -
A chartered French airliner
struck a mountain in Southern
France today and rescuers
who reached the site later re-
ported all 40 persons had per-

gers, all British tourists, and

geant, Antonio Prestes de
Paula.
The revolt began shortly af-
ter midnight. The participants,
mostly SergeantS and corporals,
gathered at a marine base
known as Brasilla Alpha, about
25 miles southeast of this city.
They drove into town and en-
circled the headquarters of the
Presidents special guard bat
talon. The guards fired and
forced them to withdraw. One
rebel was killed.
The rebel band moved into
PraCa Dos Tres Poderes, a huge
square on which the CongeSs
building is alongside the Presi-
dents office and the Supreme
Court building.
Deputy Clovis Mota, acting
president of the Chamber of
Deputies, was seized and held
about 80 minutes. Then he was
freed unframed.
The band split up, with some
moving into the central tele-
phone exchange, others to the
Navy Ministry and the air
base.
There was brief exchange
of fire at the ministry before
the rebels there gave up.
Reason for Revolt
Ministers of the armed
services said the revolt was
staged in protest against a
decision yesterday by Brazil'S
Supreme Electoral Tribunal
that went against an Army
sergeant. Aimore Zoch Caval-
heiro. They SAID the sergeant's
move was of a "SubverSive
character"
The tribunal upheld a lower
court ruling that Sergt. Caval-
heiro was ineligible to be a
candidate for deputy in the
Rio Grande do Sui state legis-
lature. He had appealed the
ruling.
Several military candidates,
principally enlisted men, were
declared ineligible to run in
the general election of 1862.
Some others were allowed to
run and were elected.
There was speculation that
the electoral tribunals ruling
in the Cavalheiro case might
set a precedent to bar mill
tary personnel in the future
as candidates for public office.
