Representative Roosevelt,
Democrat Of California, said
yesterday he expects Washing
ton banks to show more than
a passive attitude" toward ex-
panding employment opportu-
mites for Negroes.
He congratulated Riggs Ma
tional Bank and American Sc
curity and Trust Co. for having
merit employment policies, but
indicated that he desired to see
a more positive application of
the policies.
Mr.. Roosevelt made his re-
marks at a House Education
and Labor Subcommittee hear
ing on job discrimination in
Washington. He is chairman of
the subcommittee which has
been holding similar hearings
throughout the country for the
last two years.
More Effort Urged
E. Wally Stearns, vice presi-
dent and cashier of Riggs, COM
planned that the better quail
fled Negroes seek Federal en-
ployment rather than Jobs In
private industry. He and John
c. Mccormack, Riggs executive
vice president, told the sub
committee they felt the District
schools are responsible for the
fact that Negroes cannot pass
the banks qualifying tests for
clerical Jobs.
1T Is up to the banks to
make sure that Negroes don't |
have to 60 to the Federal Gov
for employment" Mr..
Roosevelt said, as he reminded
the officials that financial in
stitutions get a great deal of
help from the Government i
and If they don't want
Government interference in this
Gob) area, they've got to do a
little more. :"
Negro TeIIers Soon
Mr.. Stearns told the subcom-
that Riggs put a merit
hiring policy into effect in
July, 1861, and that the banks
Negro employees are progress
ing salary wise and job wise"
He said the majority of the
banks 100 Negro employees work
as messengers, chauffeurs and
personnel and
about 20 Negroes are classified |
as clerks.
He assured the subcommittee
that Riggs will have Negro
tellers as soon as those now In
clerical positions advance
through the ranks to fill a teller
when it occurs.
THE community has a prob
lem :. and you being the most
important bank in the area
it seems to me that you would
let the public know your policy
has changed and that you are
looking for qualified people"
Mr.. Roosevelt told the Riggs
officers.
Murray Preston, vice presi-
dent, and John w. Mowbray.
vice president and
head Of the personnel depart
ment for American Security and
Trust Co., told the subcommit-
tee about their banks merit
hiring program.
The bank employs four Ne
gro tellers and six Negroes in
the deposit accounting division
among others, they reported.
Few Negroes, they said, have
been able to meet the banks

PORT Az PRINCE, Haiti,
May "a (AP).-Latin Amer
ican diplomats have expressed
misgivings about the Kennedy
administrations move in call
ing home the United States
Ambassador to Haiti.
Ambassador Raymond L.
Thurston is leaving for what
was described in Washington
as consultations on "the fu-
ture Of our relations with
Haiti" There was speculation
here that Mr.. Thurston might
not return.
The United States has al
ready snubbed President Fran
co.'s Duvalier by suspending
contacts with his regime, but
there's been no break in for
NAL diplomatic relations.
One Latin American diplo-
mat yesterday interpreted Mr..
Thurston's departure as prob
ably signaling the start Of
an even chillier United States
attitude toward the Duvalier
government.
IF this is so. it's dangerous"
this diplomat told an Amer
ican newsman. You are ere
ating a vacuum that could be
filled with worse problems. d.
Another Latin American dip
lomat said the time is not for
hardening attitudes which
might compel Haiti to choose
undesirable alternatives"
DR.. Duvalier on Wednesday
told Haitians they faced grim
times. He said any foreign aid
would be acceptable providing
it did not compromise Haiti's
sovereignty.
American observers inter-
preted this as a reiteration of
Haitian policy that United
States aid is welcome. but only
on DR.. Duvalier's terms. The
United States has cut off eco
nomic aid to Haiti that has
totaled $50 million since 1857.

Moro Seen Sure to Get
Post Of Italy Premier

ROME, May "a (APD.-Pres-
ident Antonio Segni today
reached the end of government
crisis consultations. 1t ap-
peared certain he would name
Christian Democrat leader Aldo
Moro to be the next Premier.
But there were growing signs
that the designation of Mr..
Moro-probably tomorrow or
Monday-would not end the
crisis, but simply mark a new
phase. Pietro Nenni. leader Of
the Marxist Socialists, was still
showing hesitation toward Mr..
Moro.
Mr.. Nenni continued to lean
toward Amintore Fanfani, who
resigned May l6. as required

Laid 10 Reds

GENEVA, May "a (AP).-
United States Delegate Charles
c. Stelle charged today the
Soviet Union and its allies are
using the l7-nation disarma-
ment conference to preach
hatred of West Germany.
Mr.. Stelle told the conference
the Communist delegates seek
to stir up passions by "all sorts
of wild, unfounded accusations
against the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization and par
ticularly the Federal Republic
of Germany" and that this
could never lead to fruitful
negotiations.
The Soviet Bloc governments
are violating their own prohibi-
ton of war propaganda. he
said, by trying to arouse their
peoples. through the one-sided
presentation of news and the
active distortion Of develop
ments. to hate the people and
government Of Western
Germany"
Entirely irresponsible stories
have been spread and. on occa-
sion, even manufactured, about
the alleged aggressive inten-
tions Of NATO. about supposed
West German desires to start a
nuclear war and about a
claimed desire by the Federal
Republic TO pursue its policies
by the use of force"
Mr.. Stelle stressed that West
Germany is an integral part Of
the NATO alliance and said the
Communist charge that the
Federal Republic is bent on its
own policy Of aggression and
revenge is ION It's face a logical
absurdity in this age OF nuclear
weapons"
The United States delegate
rejected a Soviet proposal that
the conference negotiate an
East-West nonapgression pact
as "a political hornets nest
which has no place in our de-
liberations."

A Memphis businessman was

The Russians, Mr.. Cook

World Price Is Question
A key question is whether
any deal with Russia would be
made at the world wheat price
of about $1.30 a bushel, which
is about go cents below the do
nestle price. The Government
subsidies wheat exports to
make up the difference but is
prohibited by export regulations
from making such subsidized
sales to the Soviets.
Another problem is whether

with Russia.
But Representative Latta,
Republican of Ohio, author of
an amendment to the 1861
farm bill declaring congress
sional intent not to send sub
sidized exports to Iron Curtain
countries, said he was opposed
under any circumstances.
Mr.. Latta said the sale of
100 million bushels, at a rate
so cents per bushel less than
American domestic prices, would
mean a $50 million loss to
American taxpayers.

U. S. Weighs Wheat Policy,
Saws 1t Has No Red Offer

The United States still has re-
ceived no specific proposal re-
garding the sale of grain to
the Soviet Union, the State
Department said today.
Press Officer Richard I.
Philips said the Government is
seeking to determine what its
policy will be should a formal
offer be submitted for licens-
ing"
Under United States COM
mercial procedures, he said
"the crucial moment" would
come when a request from q
private exporter for a license
to sell grain is submitted to
the Department of Commerce
Mr.. Philips said he had nc
knowledge of a reported Soviet
offer to buy three million tons
of United States wheat for
$3.50 million.
Procedure Outlined
Under United States Govern
ment practice the Department
of Agriculture would have the
responsibility for providing the
grain, the Commerce Depart
ment would issue the license
and the State Department
would provide foreign policy
guidance,
Agriculture Secretary Free
man has indicated in the past
that any decision on selling
grain to the Soviet Union would
have to be made by President
