Panic Button" Tactic DEtortmg Factor
In Welfare Image, Rights Leader Declares

ATLANTIC CITY, N. 1.-THE
impersonal nature of constantly
expanding organization through
out the United States is general
ing apathetic public attitudes to-
ward welfare problems that have
intensified in recent years, in
stead of subsiding in reasonable
proportion to progress attained
in this field.
This was the declaration voiced
today by Nelson c. Jackson OF
New York, associate executive
director OF the National Urban
League, in addressing the Eastern
egional Conference oil the
Child Welfare League of Amer
lea, in session here at the Hotel
Ambassador.
consequently" said Mr.. Jack
son, pubic welfare departments
have become virtually a dump
ing ground for social problems
which communities would like to
sweep under the rug and forget .
He cited in particular the ef-
fects OF this apathy toward prob
lens of child dependency, add
ing:
TOO often, likewise, volun-
tary agencies are unable or un-
willing to come to grips with
these crucial community issues
because they are often faced with
the same apathy, through board
leadership, which controls the
overall community

said perpetuated segregation in
Chicago's public schools, has
resigned his $48, 500-a-year post
as school superintendent.
Shortly before the 61-year-old

Illinois Appellate Court dealt
him a second setback in a case
involving his refusal to carry
out transfers for "a top-ranked

Mr.. Willis, who was under

court decision ordering the
transfer left him only two
alternatives.

HONOLULU. Oct. S CAP)-
The American Negro-or a
person Of any other race, color
or creed-will get equal oppor-
tunity for Jobs with the United
States Post Office Department,
the Postmaster General said
today.
In his first major speech
since his appointment Septem-
Der 80 as head Of the Nations
largest Federal civilian agency,
John A. Gronouski told Amer
lean postmasters he would not
tolerate discriminatory prac-
tees.
The American Negro Is OBJ
viously fed up with being a
second-claSs citizen He re-
fused to wait any longer for
equality (andO I don't blame
him." Mr.. Gronouski told the
National Association Of Post
masters convention at Waikiki
Beach. The convention has at
tracted about 1000 delegates
from every State.
Mr.. Gronouski said the Post
Office Department would not
be content to restrict itself to
investigating what he termed
random complaints Of dis
elimination"
Positive Approach Wanted
II want to see a positive ap-
proach to eliminate any re-
naming discriminatory .prac-
tices," Mr.. Gronouski contin-
ued, land in areas where there
has been a long history Of dis
elimination, assertive action
must be taken to make up for
past repression"
The Postmaster General said
he won't stand for interference
from local government, regard
less Of the area where opposi-
ton shows itself.
"Postmasters can expect me
to back them to the Hit in
any cases where controversies
may arise due to local opposi-
ton to this policy" he said.
He said he didn't want to see
any one picked for any job
North or South-unleSs the
man is considered the best for
that Job. 81 don't care what
race he Is, or what his religion
is, or anything about him ex-
cept his qualifications"
Along a similar line. the Post
master General promised to
safeguard Post office Depart
ment career officials from "po-
litical heaving and pulling"
Politics." he paraphrased,
mo longer makes strange post
masters. There will be no po-
litical pull in the postal serv-
