purposes, Vice President Lyn-
don B. johnson told representa-
tives of all agencies attending a
training session of the equal op-
portunity program Wednesday.
The Vice President opened the
seminar in the Commerce De-
partment Auditorium for the
group of more than 100 staff
people who will study practi-
cal methods for operating af-
firmative action programs" in
the field Of equal employment
opportunity in government. The
training program was conducted
by the Civil Service Commission
and the Presidents Committee
on Equal Employment Oppor-
tunity of which the Vice Presi-
dent is chairman.
"You have not been assigned
the task of promoting equal OPP
portunity merely as an extra

duty which is required to salts
fy an idle within of some admin
istrator," he declared. "This job
has been placed in your hands
and assigned a high priority
simply because all of our ma
tional goals and purposes will
fail unless we can truly say to
the whole world that the United
States is a nation in which peo-
pie are judged on their merits
and not upon irrelevant consid-
erations of their ancestry"
Also speaking at the opening
session of the three-day train
ing program were Assistant Sec
rotary of State for African AZ
fairs G.. Mennen Williams; Ho-
bart Taylor, Jr., executive vice
chairman of the Presidents
Committee; w. v. Gill, assistant
to the chairman, Civil Service
Commission; and John G. Field,
executive director, Presidents
Committee.
Vice President Johnson point
ed out that the Presidents Com
mittee on Equal Employment
Opportunity has developed five
positive programs aimed at
achieving its goals:
l. A compliance program bas-
ed upon the principle "Thou
Shalt not discriminate" h
covers some 100000 workers
among firms that hold govern
ment contracts.
2. A compliance program that
covers 100000 Federal workers
in all agencies.
8. A "Plans for Progress" pro-
Jackson advocate. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1939-current, 1963-02-09

gram in which 104 of the larg-
est corporations in America
have pledged themselves to af-
firmative steps to end discrimi-
nation that even 60 beyond those
steps which can be legally re-
quired under the Executive Ord
err.
4. A "Union Program for Fair
Practices" in which lit of the
major unions have pledged
themselves to take affirmative
steps to end discrimination over
and above the requirements of
the Executive Order.
s. A community relations pro-
gram in which the Committee
seeks to bring the facts to peo-
pie in individual communities
both through conferences in
Washington and in other cities.
Mr.. Williams told the group
that when any of US take a
trip to Africa, we are asked
questions about our relations
with minority groups"
"In some areas, the questions
come with understanding" he
declared, "but in some with
bitterness. l say understanding
because they are not unaware
of the kind of thing you are
doing here today and of what
President Kennedy is doing"
Mr.. Gill emphasized that equal
employment opportunity does
not mean giving preference to
minority group applicants or
employees but, on the other
hand that at is not our OBJ
jective to sit passively and wait
for minority group people to
find out about our job oppor-
tunities "a policy which has
been characteristic in the past"
at is equal opportunity we
seek" he pointed out. "Be-
cause some groups have tended
to be outside the normal pattern
of employment, we need special
emphasis and special considera-
ton to achieve it. We need to
be affirmatively active in max
ing it a reality. But these eff
forts are being made and will
continue to be made in COM
patability with the merit sys-
tenn"

| Dr.. Yancey
Writes Book On
anne. Church

DR.. J. w. Yancy, II, 1116
Elm Avenue, Waco, Texas, the
Director Of Public Relations Of
the Texas Diocese of the Afri-
can Methodist Episcopal Church
has completed a book: History
of the Correctional Depart
ments of the African Metho-
dist Episcopal Church"
The book will be off the press
by the time the Bishops Coun-
Gil of the A. M. E. Church will
meet in Houston, in February.
History of the Correctional
Departments of the A. M. E.
Church" parallels the origin and
developments of the A. M. E.
Church, which was founded by
Richard Allen i'm 1887 and gives
account of most Of the laws Of
each General Conference from
1918 to the last one in 1860.
The organization and establish
ment of these departments were
created by acts Of the General
Conferences.
Many of the original pictures
of leaders of the church are in
Guided. These pictures are taken
from daguerreotypes which
were forerunners of photog-
raphy. The first daguerreo-
types were made in this coun-
try in 1889.
1t also contains pictures Of
Richard Allen, the founder Of
the A. M. E. Church, the first
church which was a blacksmith
shop, purchased for $500, the
present Mother Church." the
National A. M. E. Cathedral,
and all the other buildings
owned by the A. M. E. Church.
These buildings are located in
Washington, D. c., New York,
Philadelphia, Nashville and
Memphis.
DR.. Yancy visited all these
cities and complied first hand
information. Key church Of
ficials and church school il
braries were used for this writ
ing. Much of the information
was taken from out of print
books and bits of fragmentary
data pieced together. 1t took
three years to complete the
writing of the book.
The history of the following
Departments of the A. M. E.
Church are treated in the book:
Publication. Missionary, Finan-
cial, Education, Sunday School,
Extension, Pension, Evangelism,
Lavmen, Historiography, and
Minimum Salary.
The dates of their establish
ments, the names of the first
heads of the departments are

He also visited Gov. Enid.
colt Peabody at the Massa.
chusetts capitol. Governor
Peabody welcomed Governor
Barnett to his state and said
despite their different political
PHILOSOPHERS he felt "a man
who has something to say
should be heard"
That's the best way to solve
our problems" the Massachu'
sets governor said. "In diver
sity there is strength. l may
learn from you and you may
learn from me-"
Mrs. Barnett and Mrs. A. B
Atkins of Homer, La, the Bar
netts' daughter, were greeted
by Governor Peabody and
numerous legislative officials
including Atty. Gen. Edward
brooke, a,Msfn. The two Upv'
etrtors and the attorney gen
.ral posed for pictures.
Earlier, thanked by two Bos-
ton detectives, Governor Bar
nett visited with several in
dustralists, urging them to ex-
pand their operations into his
Deep South state.
State police met Governor
Barnett at Logan international
Airport Sunday night and es-
corted him to the city limits
where Boston police joined the
party. Two Boston policemen
remained on duty during the
night outside the Governor S
three-room suite. Early Mon
day morning, two detectives
we're assigned to the Governor
and the police security guard
removed.
Joe Bullock, director of the
Mississippi Agricultural and
Industrial Board who accom-
panied the Governor, said the
security arrangements had
been made by Col. T. B. Bird
song of the Mississippi High
way Patrol.
There were no picket lines
around the hotel and officers
said no threats had been made
against the Governor.
Governor Barnett went his
way almost unnoticed by dele
gates attending two conven-
tons in the Statler Hotel.
David Berman, Virginia-born
director of the Harvard Law
School Forum, said no Incl
dents were anticipated. The
Governor and his party were
escorted to the campus in near
by Cambridge by police.
Following the Governors ad-
dress, a panel of three Harvard
Law School professors dis
cussed the presentation from a
legal standpoint.
Most of those attending the
address were students and
faculty members. The audi
ence was integrated.

cos!apses, Dies

Glen Cove, N. Y. - Mrs.
Ruthe Campanella, estranged
wife Of former baseball star
catcher, collapsed and died in
her swank, $4,000 home here
Friday at the age Of 40.
Her unexpected death came
less than two months after the
expensive Glen Cove Mansion
was sold for $4,000 to meet
tax liens after mortgage pay
nents had gone INTENDED for a
year. An autopsy was perform
ed to determine cause of death.
Campanella, former Brooklyn
Dodger catcher, who occupies a
fiveroom apartment . few
blocks from liquor store, told
authorities his wife had heart
condition.
Tragedy, first came to the
Campanella family when Cam
py, as he was affectionately
known to the baseball world,
five years ago was involved In
an auto accident which nearly
cost him his life, and broke his
neck and paralyzed him from
the waist down. Since then the
Campanellas had been plagued
by marital troubles. David, 20,
Mrs. Campanella's son by a pre-
vious marriage, had been in
minor trouble with the police,
which 'was subsequently head
lined in newspapers around the
nation. The Campanellas were
separated in 1860. The couple
had three children, Roy, IA;
Rony. IL and Princess, 9.
She was stricken shortly be-
fore noon. According to police,
she was talking to a woman en-
ploye of the Internal Revenue
Service in Brooklyn at the time.
The woman said she heard a
commotion, then the phone went
dead so she called police.

Negroes - giving them the news and com.
ment and opinions which interpret the news
in the light of the hopes and aspirations and
problems closest the minds and hearts of the
new American Negro.
So much of this news and comment Is
exclusive, appearing nowhere else, that the
local Negro newspaper fills vital need which
no general medium, and no other type of
Negro medium, can satisfy.
That's why the new Negro city-dweller
gladly pays for his own newspaper. He's
like the American tourist in London who,
though surrounded by British papers, hunts
up the European edition of an American
Newspaper to get his news.
Now it's easy for any business to reach
this Uncommon Market anywhere in the
state by advertising in the one Newspaper
that is read by Negroes throughout the
state.

fident Of our service and the returns to our
advertisers. We gladly assist in pubHc-re-
lations, sales promotion, and merchandising
