North Caroline Pepper
Praises Movie With
Dixie Ruea Theme

Now and then, along comes a
movie which serves notice that
here after all is a Goth century art
form and at the same time a COM
munications medium for the trans
mission of deep social messages.
Such a movie is TO Kill a Mock
ingbird.'
When movie producers know
they have a story that needs no
establishment with wide screen
color, they stick with black and
white. The message of Moclcing-
bird is black and white. And the
story Of small-town childhood pro-
vides its own color.
The movie reminds one that In
the South in the 1905 a Negro
defendant facing a white accuser
didn't stand a chance. Does he
even today? In this case, the Ne
gro's attorney Gregory Peck)
proved him innocent in court, but
the jury convicted him anyway.
One wonders while watching the
movie how deeply the audience is
moved by the portrayal Of racial
injustice. And what role do movies,
novels and television plays with
such morals play in educating the
public to racial tolerance?

Passage Of California
foir Housing Bill
Praised By NAACP

San FRANCISCO lamp - The
passage last week Of a California
fair housing bill with strong en-
forcement provisions was hailed by
the state chapters of the NAACP
and CORE as a victory for civil
rights.
The bill was approved despite
the delaying tactics employed by
some representatives and violence
ON the part of one senator, who
tossed firecracters at a group Of
CORE sit-in demonstrators.
Called ABB 1910 the bill had the
support Of Gov. Edmund p. Brown.
It was sponsored by Assembly
man w. Byron Rumford
The NAACP, in a statement re-
leased to the Associated Negro
Press, singled out Gov. Brown and
State Sen. Edwin Regain for praises
for their strong support for the
bill. Regain was praised for steer
ing the bill out Of the Committee
on Government Efficiency and on
to the floor for passage just before
the midnight deadline.
Gov. Brown was praised for re-
fusing to abandon the bill and for
insisting that 1t not be watered
down to the point Of a meaning
less legislation.
Mrs. Tarea Hall Ptttman, west
coast NAACP regional secretary,
said the bill was a victory for civil
rights, not only in California, but
in the nation.
In addition to Gov. Brown, Sen.
Regan and Assemblyman Rumford,
the NAACP also praised three Re-
publicans, Alan Pattee, William
Bagley and Milton Marks, all OF
whom supported the bill even
though other Republicans opposed
and attempted to block it.
At the same time, the NAACF
censured Sen. Luther Gibson and
Hugh Burns for using various tao
tics in their attempts TO scuttle
the measure.
It was Sen. Burns who hurled
the firecrackers at the CORE dem.
constructors. His action not only
failed to halt the month-long sit
in staged in the Capitol refunds
at Sacramento by the Los Angeles
chapter Of CORE, but 1t was con.
sidered a new low for a state leg.

Postmaster Is Firm
In Promoting Three
DolIdS Postal Workers

washington lamp - A row
begun a month ago when three
Negroes were elevated over whites
to supervisory positions in the Dali
las post office was settled last
week with the Post Office refusing
to bow to charges of "ani-white
prejudice"
The three Negroes, all college
educated, were permitted to be
elevated by Postmaster General ].
Edward Day after Dallas Post
master w. B. Hudson informed
Washington that no Negroes were
among the top nine of some 400
eligibles and that there were no
Negro supervisors in the Dallas
post office.
Dallas locals of the United Fed
Grafton of Postal Clerks and the
National Association of Letter
Carriers protested to the Post Of
flee Department and the Civil
Service Commission.
The unions protested because
the men were selected over SO
whites who were ahead of them on
the list.
But Assistant Postmaster Cen
eral Richard J. Murphy said it Is
wrong to assume that the So white
men ahead of them were more
qualified. Their (Negroes) COM
paratively low positions on the list,
added Murphy, may be the result
of discrimination in the Dallas
Post Office.
He explained that the Negroes,
Buford R. Tyler, Andrew ]. Gallo
way and Herschel Gillins are high
ly qualified. One is a college grad
uate, the second has almost COM
pleted college, and the third has
IS hours of college credit, explain
ed Murphy.
The situation Of no Negro super
Wsors in Dallas came to light when
Postmaster General Day heard Of
it and ordered the Regional office
in Texas to look into the matter.
Murphy said the Regional office
reported discrimination" He add
ed that the unions made a fuss
because they want the (promo-
tionalD list to become a strict pro-
modonal list with the postmaster
always forced to pick the top man.
He added: I'VE will never agree
to do this"
Murphy noted that no hue and
cry was raised two weeks ago
when the Post Office Department
let a southern regional office pick
a white man as postmaster, al
though a Negro was first on the
promotion list there.
The promotions were in keeping
with the Post Office Program
for Progress plan to end dis
elimination against Negroes and
other non-whites in post-office hir-
ing, training and promotion.
Under the plan, postmasters of
large offices must take monthly
reports on their progress.
By next March, President Ken
nedy is expecting the Post Office
to report that 1t has developed
comprehensive equal employment
opportunity program.

new Organizations for Youth work;
and a successful conclusion of a
financial obligation which we've
carried for about fourteen years

He had much praise for all those

Dixie Firms Which
Opened Doors To
All, Don't Suffer

turbances in such cities as Savan-
nah, Ca, Jackson, Miss, Danville,
Va, and Tallahassee, Fla, prim-
arily revolved around Negro de-
mands that merchants open their
facilities to Negroes - in some
cases as customers and in others
as employees.
The question has taken on added
Importance in recent weeks with
the appeal to Congress by Presi-
dent Kennedy for Federal power
to outlaw racial discrimination in
all places of public accommoda-
ton. This is unquestionably the
most controversial provision Of the
Kennedy civil rights program and
seems likely to become the focal
point of the coming Congressional
battle over civil rights.
Negroes Making Major Strides
Southern businessmen generally
express strong opposition to this
section of the proposed civil rights
legislation. But even without such
a law, Negroes are making major
strides in their push to break down
segregation barriers. The Justice
Department reports that some de-
segregation of commercial facih-
ties occurred in 143 cities in South
ern and border states in the four
weeks ended June 10; others are
joining the list daily.
Last week, for instance, a BIZ
racial committee in strongly seq
regationist Fort Worth announced
that all of the dty's public facili-
ties, including hotels, restaurants,
theaters, department stores and
athletic contests, would be deseg-
regated in September when the
citys schools are scheduled for
indignation.
If the pattern emerging in other
Southern cities holds true, Fort
Worth merchants can expect some
protests and loss of business when
they first begin accepting Negroes.
But experience shows that such
adverse effects are rarely lasting.
Fred Harvey, president Of Har-
vey's Department Store in Nash
vile, says that when his store de-
segregated its lunch counters in
1860 only Is charge accounts were
closed out of 10000. The greatest
surprise I ever had was the appar-
ent 'so-what attitude Of white Gus
TONER'S" says Mr.. Harvey.
Even where business losses oc-
cur, they usually are only temper
airy. At the 12O-room Peachtree
Manor Hotel in Atlanta, owner Irv-
ing H. GoldStein says his business
dropped off 1875 when the hotel
desegregated a year ago. But now
we are only slightly behind a year
ago and we can see we are begin
ming to recapture the business we
initially lost" declares Mr.. Gold
stein.
william F. Davoren, owner of
the Brownie Drug Co. in Hunts
vile, Ala, reports that though his
business fell a bit for several weeks
after lunch counters were desegre-
gated, he's now picked up all that
he lost. Says he: II could name a
dozen people who regarded 1t as
a personal affront when I started
serving Negroes, but have come
back as If nothing had happened"
Memories Arc Short
Even a segregataon-mAnded bus
inessman in Huntsville agrees that
white customers frequently have
short memories when 1t comes 10
the race question. w. T. Hutchens,
general manager Of three Walgreen
St. Paul recorder. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1963-07-18

stores there, says he held out when
most lunch counter operators gave
in to sit-in pressures last July. In
one shopping center where his
CO m p tito desegregated, Mr..
Hutchens says his business shot up
sharply and the stores lunch
counter volume registered a 1871
gain for the year. However, this
year business has dropped back to
pre-integration levels because a
lot of people have forgotten" the
defiant role his stores played dur
ing the sit-ins, he adds.
Some Southern businessmen who
have desegregated say they have
picked up extra business as a re-
suit of the move.
At Raleigh, NC, where Gino's
Restaurant was desegregated this
year, owner Jack Griffiths reports
only eight whites have walked out
after learning the establishment
served Negroes, and he says we're
getting plenty of customers to re-
place the hard-headed ones"
In Dallas, indignation of hotels
and restaurants has opened up an
entirely new area of convention
prospects" according to Ray Ben
nson, convention manager Of the
Chamber of Commerce. This year
we've probably added So million to
$40 million of future bookings be-
cause we're integrated," Mr.. Ben
nison says.
Conventions For Atlanta
Within a day after IA Atlanta
hotels announced on June 10 they
would begin accepting Negro
guests who come to the city with
conventions, the Atlanta Conven-
ton Bureau had nailed down three
organizations for 1864 and 1865
meetings, total of 5000 delegates
who otherwise would not have VS.
tied Atlanta. Walter Crawford, ex-
ecutive vice president of the Con-
vention Bureau, says the hotels
decision opens up the remaining
406 Of the convention market that
we estimate we haven't even been
able to talk to before"
One frequently expressed fear of
Southern white businessmen, that
their establishments would be over
run by Negroes if they integrated,
apparently Is not materiahzing.
The Negroes want the right to
enter your place Of business, but
they're not so anxious to use the
right" says a Nashville banker.
At Knoxville, Tenn, william
Tiller, assistant manager of the
city's largest hotel, the Andrew
Johnson, reports that although the
hotel has been integrated more
than a month, we've had only
three Negro families and two
couples"
