where 1t pleases. I was talking to
the chapter. My talk was telling
the NAACP members that the
NAACP Is still active In the fight
and wants Its support.
This does not apply to the gen
eral public. It can buy pink Cadil-
laos, throw its money down the
drain or do whatever 1t wants tc
with its money"
No Breach
Concerning the alleged breach
between his organization and the
other groups, Wilkins declared:
We're not splitting with any
body. We want to have everything
clear. I came back from Medgal
Evers' funeral with James Farmer
and talked to the Rev. Martin
Luther King, Jr., while in Jack.
SON."
The wire story claimed Wilkins
had said that the NAACP Is the
only organization that has con
sistently sponsored civil rights
throughout the country and fol
lowed up civil rights action since
the 1854 Supreme Court schoo
desegregation ruling. He was also
quoted as saying the NAACP l.
the only organization capable Of
handling a long sustained civil
rights fight.
"All the rest start a little and
then rush off somewhere else

They are here today, gone tomor-
row." Wilkins said, according tc
the wire story.
Cites Joint Efforts
Also, according to the report
Wilkins cited a joint NAACP.
CORE drive in Louisville, KY, sew.
eral years ago, when, he said, the
NAACP was forced to foot the
5000 bill. He said that out Of
267 demonstrators arrested, only
IL were CORE members.
In New York, James Farmer
national director Of CORE, refused
to comment on the alleged charges
until I have Mr.. Wilkins full re.
port before me-"
DR.. King was not Immediately
available for comment.
May Stir Reaction
Despite the move by Wilkins t
smooth the ruffled feelings caused
by the disclosure of his statements
there was the general feeling thai
his speech may stir unfavorablt
reaction between the groups.
There has been a feeling, partic.
ularly among young civil rights
advocates, that the younger anc
more vocal groups have forced the
NAACP to assume a militant
stand in the civil rights fight
However, 1t is undeniable that the
NAACP has borne the brllnt Of ex'
pensive civil rights legal fights
and provided legal aid and bail fol
all.
Wilkins himself was arrested fol
demonstrating in jackson, Miss.
recently, and some observers view
ed it as reflecting a chance In The
NAACP approach from reliance or
fighting chiefly In the courts.

ISSUES: GOOD
AND BAD
BY p. L. PRATTTS

@@@S SSS~@ASAO "a @sA~AAA1
Barry Goldwater, are cueing in.
Barry wants and needs the
southern states If he Is to make
political hay. Some southerners are
looking at him quizzically trying
to make up their minds just what
Barry means when he talks about
the sanctity Of states rights.
Barry's words not only have a hol-
low ring, but they are really hol-
low, and you can spend hours won
dering whether there is any mean
ing in them or, If there be a parti-
Gle, what Its significance may be.
know that MY Man" Barry
would have preferred to stick to
issues like Cuba, states rights,
and right-to-work laws. But the
NAACP, the Southern Christian
Leadership Conference, CORE, and
others, have messed up Barry's
think table as well as his time
table.
Even II the southerners don't
know what Barry means when
he talks about states rights, he
knows what they mean when
they emote over the issue. He
knows that states rights to
southerners Is a fake issue de-
signed to give southern states
the power to deny civil rights to
Negroes.
Thus when the peaceable-as-
sembly demonstrators force the
Administration to back the strong
est civil rights program ever
placed before Congress, my Man"
Barry is compelled to shift with
all his stiffness.
Stories are leaking out to the
press now about how really civil
rights Barry is. They go back to
the time when he was city at
torney, or something, in Phoenix,
and tell how civil rights he was
to the poor colored folks In Phoe-
nix. Later, Barry Is supposed to
have hexed his civil rights muscle
on the state level to see that poor
old Sam got fair shake in the
National Guard. I haven't yet read
what kind Of Nanny" Barry had.
People of his original faith are
usually very good mothers and
don't need 'cMammies."
However, my Man" Barry's
supporters had better come up
with something better in his past
than they have. The past doesn't
count anymore.
Barry could tell whether he is
in favor Of public accommodations
being open to all American citi-
zenS TODAY. He could tell wheth-
er he is for or against a non-ger-
name filibuster in the Senate. He
could make it known whether he
favors change in the rules in the
Senate to lessen the power Of the
eleven southern states 10 RULE
THE COUNTRY by virtue of the
filibuster, seniority and the denial
Of the vote to Negroes in southern
states. How does he stand on the
labridgment Of the right Of the Ne
gro to vote? The facts are easily
available.
And the constitution spells out
exactly what should be done when
the right Of citizens to vote In fed
eral elections is abridged. Is SEN
ator Goldwater for that section Of
the Constitution Does he want to
face up to the present or look back
to the past.

go, she buys one! Once in awhile
she can do something beside drive

to check it so she can drive it.
Yesterday, Grandma was always
willing to take care Of Junior

Yours truly, after a hectic week

have no more aches and pains, and
will be out there with the rest of

that they had a real Frank Mer-

two golfers next day. Wowee! I
am still saying; watch Big JUL

ease down a little if "Arnie and
his Army keep marching.
Well, here is the scorecard on
the fourth round of the club
matches as I promised. Hmm d.
the fairways are getting a little
tight at the top of the list. Looks
like the Bowmans and the Cooks
are crowding the tee, pretty close
in the standings. However, this
is still the fourth round and there
are many yards to go before we all
reach the 10Th hole old bud. There
are about six more rounds left, so
keep playing to win.

The aggregate bail for the five

The sect subscribes to the Islam

according to Mr.. and Mrs. VIII
liams were startled to their feet
when the front door was opened
with a loud crash, according to
Mrs. Winiams) and the two patrol
men strobe into the home.
A heated conversation with the
police on the receiving end tran
spired with an irate and embar-
assed Mrs. Williams making a
hurried call to the Precinct while
the officers were doing the same
thing from their squad car,
Commanding officers of the po-
lice station came to Mrs. Williams
home, examined the door and lock
for possible damage claimed by
Mrs. Williams and offered their
apologies, stating the incident was
an honest mistake" in the address.
Station authorities, when ques-

said the same party making the
original complaint again called a
little after midnight claiming the
noisy prty WIS still going on.
The same number was given but
on a different avenue.
The bone of contention" be-

the officers did force their way into
her home by breaking the door
lock as Mrs. Williams claims or
whether they (Officers Nuqhst
and Deutsch) found the door par

Mrs. Williams claims neither

before entering.
The officers joint report on the
incident did not mention whether
they knocked on the door or not.
