NAACP Prexy Urges
Union Hiring OF
Negro Rights Workers

A letter from Roy Cooksey,
President of the Southwest Area
Conference of the National Asso-
citation for the Advancement of
Colored People has been mailed
to John E. Evans, secretary
treasurer and executive board
member of the State AFL-C1O.
NAACP urges the State AFL-
Clio executive board to recon-
slider their decision to table the
recommendation of the State
AFL-Cio Civil Rights Commit
tee; that would request funds
from the international union to
be matched by the state to employ
Nn experienced Negro civil rights
field worker.
Cooksey who is also a member
of the State Civil Rights Commit
tee (AFL-CIO) said that the his
tory OF the Negro and organized
labor in Arizona would indicate
that minorities can only be i'm
partially represented by Negro
who is directly associated with
the struggle of minority groups.
Cooksey also stated that unem-
ployment even among unskilled
workers Is much higher than Ne
groes. So since membership
dues have been raised recently
and assessments levied in the
past for less worthy causes the
executive board should not hesi-
tate to give this their immediate
approval.

control system that in 48 hours

tube should perform after thou

WHAT CAN GO WRONG?
Inside black and white television

Some tubes and parts help to clean

they fade, you may get flip-flop
pictures. These tubes and every
other tube in Motorola's black

guaranteed for a full year not
for just 80 days.
2. "SnoW" Trouble
The little tubes have many jobs to
do +. one of which is to take the
signal from your antenna and
give it a boost. If it goofs, you may
get snow. Ours does an excellent

guaranteed for a full year,. not

When you get bad picture on your back-and-white

it's not the picture tube It's the little tubes and other
