LeadersSalate NAACP

In his message to the NAACPconference, Lester B. Granger, ex-ecutive director, National UrbanLeague said: “Looking to the yearsahead after the 50th anniversaries ofboth the NAACP and the NationalUrban League, we in the UrbanLeague see greater need than everfor an intense application of our twinprograms ... May your 51st year bean auspicious beginning for the newjob ahead. The nation needs a sound-ly-led and firmly-supported NAACPprogram as npver before.”

George Meany, president, AFL-CIO: “We share your objectives. Weare fully committed to them as youare and we are constantly pressingfor their fulfillment in the laggardareas of the labor movement as well asin the nation as a whole. While we areproud of the accomplishments of thetrade union movement to date, we arecognizant that much remains to bedone within our own house, and, aswe have made quite clear, we intendto do that job.

“We share as well common enemies.It is no mere coincidence that the lastanti-Negro stronghold in America islikewise the last anti-union stronghold.Those who oppose you, oppose us.In so doing, they oppose all that isgood for America.

“But the goal we share with youis not so close to achievement as topermit the luxury of differences in.tactics developing into recriminations.We are both entitled, on the basis ofour individual organizational records,to confidence in the other’s goodfaith.”

Other famous persons who sentmessages to the conference were:Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., presi-dent, Southern Christian LeadershipConference; William O. Walker, presi-dent of the National Newspaper Pub-lishers Association and publisher ofthe Cleveland Call and Post; Adlai E.Stevenson; Walter Reuther, president,

Negro behaving normally. Unionspromised they would protect anyfired employee if retaliatory discrim-ination from employers took place.

Today things seem 90 per cent bet-ter than 3 months ago. However,luxury rooms in town are not open ingeneral. Casinos and bars are barelyopen. A meeting of the new commis-sion was scheduled for early July,and the strip operators are apparentlygoing to ignore it. If they do, thedemonstration may go forward. Some-where between 300 and 3,000 demon-strators can be available depending onthe urgency of the call.

The governor apparently is quitecooperative with the NAACP. Esti-mated guesses ate that the state as-sembly would pass non-discriminatorylegislation but the state senate wouldsay no.

Negro Delegate Writes. (Coat, from Page 1)

America. It was stimulating to meetand talk with the top level persons

in the union. I was also impressedwith the affair which was elaborateand in keeping with the event and thesurroundings.

Monday, 1 p.m. the Arizona dele-gation had its first caucus. After con-siderable discussion, the delegationwas polled and this was the result:KENNEDY-24; JOHNSON-5; SYM-INGTON-2; STEVENSON-1. Twomembers did not vote. My vote wasfor Kennedy.

Later that day I met the Kennedyfamily. With Ted Kennedy it was arenewal of acquaintance.

Monday at 5 p.m. I attended thefirst convention session. This wassomething to behold and not to forget.It appeared to be the greatest showon earth. During that session I thinkI walked 25 miles meeting and talkingwith delegates from all the states.

Michigan had the largest delegationof Negroes—26 in all. There weremany Negro delegates from Illinois,Washington. D. C., Massachusetts,Pennsylvania, Indiana, Ohio, NewYork, Maryland, Texas, Oklahoma,California, Virginia, and the VirginIslands. There were a total of 90 Ne-gro Delegates.

In my humble opinion, the 1960Democratic platform is- the best thatthey have ever adoped. It was a plat-form which made one feel fully Amer-ican—a first class citizen.

I had a grand time meeting all the

“VIPs” (very important persons) inthe political arena.

Friday morning Senators John F.Kennedy and Lyndon B. Johnson metwith all the Negro delegates. SenatorJohnson assured us, and made thepoint very clear and Senator Kennedyjoined him in this, that if they areelected they wilPsee to it that Negroesmake more progress in the next 4years than they have made in the last50.

To further drive home his point,relative to southerners who havehelped the cause, he cited Hugo Blackof Kentucky, Ex-senator Claude Pep-per of Florida and Governor LeroyCollins of Florida.

This indeed was .an education alongmany lines. It was a privilege to havebeen a part of this important delibera-tion. There was, of course, minorityopinion and it was expressed openlyand at times forcefully. But the over-all majority opinion was what finallycame out on top. I think we are in forsome progressive years.
