NAACP
Set . N iIIion
Dollar Goal

NEW YORK The National
ASS ociation for the Advancement
Of Colored People is seeking
to raise one million dollars in
what Roy Wilkins. the Associa-
tion's executive secretary, des-
cribed as the largest single fund.-
raising project in the civil rights
movement.
Wilkins revealed this goal
April 10 when he announced the
46 cities which will participate
in the NAACP-spons ored nation
wide closed circuit teleWsion
spectacular. May IA, in observ-
ance Of the tenth anniversary
Of the United State Supreme Court
school desegregation ruling of

The star studded two hour
program will originate in New
York City and in Los Angeles.
Sixteen of the 46 cities are To-
Gated in the South.
The Freedom Spectacular"
MIR. wilkins said. proposes not
only to focus attention on the his
toric decision but also to serve
as a massive protest against the
slow implementation of the de-
cree. Less than 10 per cent Of
the Negro school children in the
border and southern states and
the District of Columbia are now
attending classes with white chill
dren, he added.
Auditoriums in the 46 cities
seat a total Of $4,000 persons.
A full house in each city, the
NAACP leader said, would pro-
vide an even larger indication
of protest against the snail s pace
of desegregation than the March
on Washington last August.
Another objective Of the pro-
gram, Mr.. wilkins told news men,
is the raising of funds to meet
the rising costs of carrying on
the civil rights struggle. He cited
the pressing need for bail bond
money for persons arrested in
anti segregation demonstra-
tionS.

Arizona motorists who have not
yet had their cars inspected, are
urged by the Motor Vehicle Dr.
vision to do so without delay.
Contrary to what may have been
heard, there was no extension by
the legislature, and the deadline
was March 81. Law enforcement
groups will decide a definite due
date very soon now.
State officials remind all car
owners that no matter how careful
the driver, or how safe the road,
a faulty vehicle creates an ever
present danger of accident or
tragedy. 1t Is further pointed out
by these officials that the pro-
gram Is designed to save lives,
money, and to make Arizona a
safer place in which to live and
drive. Similar efforts in other
states indicate many lives have
been saved through inspection.
All officials connected with
this program. seek and appre-
ciate, the cooperation of the mot
oring public, and ask that we all
join together in this movement to
save lives in Arizona.
