Attorney Colley sadi that he had several conversations with the City Attorney of Greenfield who seemed to indicate that he felt an apology would suffice to settle the case. Mr. Colley said that from all indications the city officials of Greenfield have no understanding of what it means to s u f fer the abridgement of one's constitutional rights and that this matter was far too grave an infraction of the law to be settled by a mere apology.

The work of the non-profit organization has grown rapidly since its frmation three years ago. It publishes a newsletter, has published four books, distributes "Presence Africaine," a periodical published in France, and is building a library at its headquarters to provide research facilities in the fields of African history, literature and art. Civic acceptance has been high, Erickson reported. He explained that the valuable certificates which accompany each rose lapel pin mean a return of $6 value for the small investment of .$1 to aid and assist the festival. (Continued on Page 2) The Society has also conducted conferences, seminars, tours and exchanges designed to increase communication and understanding between Africans of culture and their American counterparts. "All this compounds the prob· lem, as does the constant flow of vicious letters tnd fly sheets coming through the mails. In an atmosphere of aggravated Communist hysteria, it is imperative that struggling minorities keep the issue of human decency clear and pursue its achievement relentlessly." "The clinics in Portland are for persons of all ages," Rutherford said. These clinics make the vaccine available at little or no cost on a neighborhood basis. Any individual neglecting to take advantage of these shots is guilty of neglect verging upon "criminal" should your family be exposed to polio in the peak season late this summer or fall. bama. 3 Months Traffic Toll Down 23 Per Cent Oregon led the Pacific coast states in reducing traffic deaths during the first three months of the year. The state showed a 23 per cent decline in traffic deaths when compat·ed with the same period of 1959. Neighboring California showed a 5 per cent drop, while Washington recorded a 7 per cent increase in traffic deaths, according to statistics provided by the National Safety Council. OBITUARY BOB SEEGER LAID TO REST Funeral services for Robert D. Seeger were held at the Cox Funeral Chapel, Wednesday, June 1. with Rev. Harry Daniels delivering the funeral oration. Mrs. Daniels, wife of the Reverend, sang two beautiful songs. Mrs. Muriel Ingram played the organ. Mr. Seeger, who was one of the few wealthy men of this district, passed away very suddenly but peacefully-May 23 at his home in bed. Bob had not been sick but had not been feeling too well lately. He often stated that he "loved the life he lived and lived the life he loved." ·Everyone who knew Bob loved him. He was his own worst enemy. Bob will long be remembered here in Portland. He was laid by the side of his wife, "Nehoma,'' in Lincoln Memorial Park.

Dates of these meeting will be carried in future editions of The Best wishes, ladies. Clarion, and members will receive their regular meeting notices. Fine favoraJble response has been received from the entire Oregon Congressional delegationthrough the mails by Dist. Chmn. Sayles on the subject of "The Passenger Train Service Bill," Senate Bill 3020. The bill is still in Committee, and all railroad employees should keep the mail rolling in to their representatives in Congress, seeking their support in the bill's passage. The eleven (11) Non-Operating Unions, of which we are one, are still negotiating with the Carriers for wage increase, health and welfare benefit increases, etc., and our repesentatives have appeared before the President's Fact-Finding Board to present our case. At the moment, the Carriers have the floor. More about this in next week's issue. The desk is covered with mail. Bulletin No. W-40-A is on the board at the Commissary and states the following: "To all Waiters, Lounge Car Porters, Etc. -Portland District; Referring to my Bulletin No. W-40 dated May 13, 1960: From bids received and displacement rights, the nine (9) positions of Waiter, Dome Diner, Trs. 105-111 and 106-112, Portland-Chicago Line, are assigned to: L.

Union Meeting date for June will appear in an early issue of The Clarion. There will only be one meeting each month during the Summer, and a series of meetings in September to choose candidates to make the race for offices within the organization. So keep current i nyour dues, thereby being eligible to file as a candidate for office and to vote for the candidate of your choice. Have no report on the progress of those on our sick list, here's hoping that all are well or are making rapid strides to that estate. Walter L. Sayles, D. C. NAACP Leaders in Winston-Salem Hailed For Desegregation Role WINSTON-SALEM, N. C.-The NAACP congratulated its youth and adult leaders here for their role in bringing about desegregation of lunch counters in this city's major downtown drug and variety stores. Counters that reopened on an integrated basis, May 25, included those at S. H. Kress r Co., two F. W. Woolworth Company stores, H. L. Green Company and Walgreen's drug store. In a telegram to Don Bradley, an NAACP student protest leader at Winston-Salem Teachers College, to Patricia Tillman, an Atkins High School student co-ordinator for Atkins and Carver High Schools, and to.Carl Mathews and Dr. F.

The Association's Executive Secretary Roy Wilkins told the students in a telegram dispatched today that "by your patience, courage and determination, you have demonstrated the highest values of citizenship. "Under tremendous stress," Secretary Wilkins added, "you have persevered, maintained a good scholarship record and been a credit to your race, your community and the nation." The two Central High School students, veterans of the September, 1957 Faubus - created crisis, are Jefferson Thomas and CarlotPackinghouse Workers Union S·upports Protest Movement CHICAGO-National, state and local laws for fair employment were urged this week by 600 delegates attending the United Packinghouse Workers constitutional convention here. The Union specifically endorsed Negro sit-in demonstrations in the South. It also proposed for a civil rights program; unrestricted rights to register and vote without fear of intimidation or reprisal, especially in the South; free access to public and private housing and hotels for all races, colors or creeds; and protection against mob violence and other intimidation.

Ellis Thomas, father of Jefferson, was discharged after 10 years employment by International Harvester. He was subsequently arrested while guarding the home of 'Mrs. Daisy Bates, leader of the state NAAOP. The home where Miss Walls lives with her parents was bombed. And the youngsters themselves suffered continued harassment within the schools that went unpublicized. The NAACP also forwarded a $1,000 contribution to the Little Rock Scholarship Fund, treasured by Mr. Thomas, for educational expenses of the original Little Rock Nine. The Association has contributed to the Fund in the past. Ernest Green, also a member of the Little Rock Nine and currently attending Michigan State University at East Lansing, is president of the Association's of branches announced this week. Other new NAACP units char-' tered by the Board of Directors include a branch in McKeesport, Pa., and a college chapter at Morris College, Sumter, S. C. Also NAACP youth councils at Winter Haven, Fla.; Coffeyville, Kans. ; Jefferson County, Ill.; Perth Amboy, Cape May and Atlantic City, N.J.; Bay Shore, N.Y.; Beaver Valley, Pa., and Greenville, S.C. Carver Association's Float Depicts Love A majority of it in the form of replys from Oregon's members of Congress in reply to my Jetter to them on "The Passenger Train Service Bill, S-3020," and numerous letters from Brother Richard W. Smith, secretay-treasuer of the Joint Council, Chicago, who is doing a remarkable job of keeping general and district chairmen informed as to developments in negotiations between the 11 "NonOps" and the Carriers. Hats off to Brother Smith! It is quite obvious from the foregoing that several of the members failed to place bids, for reasons best known to themselves, or worse, neglected to notice the Bulletin Board. The result is that some are stuck in positions in which they are decidedly unhappy, for an additional length of time. Another instance of proof that vigilance pays. Regular attendance in Union Meetings will serve to keep members abreast of the times in all things of interest to them in relation to their employment. Happily, there will be other opportunities to "bid off" real soon for those who missed this one. tee, Herbert L. Wright, the Asso- unit th.flre. ciation youth secretary, said in The Carver Association's float this year depicts Philadelphia, "City of Brotherly Love," birthplace of our nation, home of our nation's proud symbol, the Liberty Bell.

The new star is being .sewn on our flag, as "Miss Liberty" heraJds its advent Liberty, "tone of the times," commemorating our newest state.

This was the overwhelming consensus of the General Assembly of the United Presbyterian Church in the U.S.A. that convened here for eight days ending May 25. Three million Presbyterians are represented by the Assembly. Non-violent and orderly student demonstrations against racial segregation are specifically endorsed. The moveme~t led by Negro college students was described as being consistent with "our Christian heritage, the Federal Constitution and the moral consensus of our nation." _A report by the standing committee on social education and action: (1) deplored violence against student demonstrators, and termed "unjust" arrests of._ demonstrators in some cases while their assailants went free; (2) commended students who when attacked or cursed did not retaliate, but acted with patience. and dignity; and (3) urged church-goers to patronize those places of public accommodation that serve all without regard to race.
