The Sunday meeting was about the third o~ such meetings. The business at hand was the "Poo r People's Cam– paign," which is supported in Portland by the Black United Front and Citizens Against Racism. These two groups hopefully will send a busload of people from Port– land to join Rev. Ralph Aber– nathy's campaign. Rev. Harper Richardson of Centenary-Wilbur Methodist Church, who handles the fund– ra1smg chorus, expressed concern over the lack of people positively committed. A representative from United Citizens for the Elimination of Poverty, UCEP, was con– cerned over the possibility of violence, safety for their children, and care for chil– dren left behind. Plans were discussed for the proposed poor people's march on the state capital in Salem in conjunction with the Black United Front. The march is planned for Friday and Sat– urday, May 24 and 25. Groups of poor people from all over Oregon are supposed to con– verge on the state capital on that date. Funds may be sent to and information received from the Poor People's Campaign Office, Rev.
