Altho the NAACP is said to be the stubborn contender in this in tegration fight, none of the local NAACP officials were asked to serve on this 20-member commit tee. It was also noted that the sponsors even ’shied away from the name “interracial’' when naming the committee, apparently afraid of the word “interracial”.

We only got one of them—Harold D Cooley from the 4th district. All of which goes to show that ! Tarheelia—-as NAACP people ha - said all along -is little different from other rabid Southern states which are hell-bent on keeping the Negro forever under foot by denying him every vest.ee of first class cithtenship they possibly cnn. Jt was amusing to hear eandi date W. K. Debnarn charge the NAACP was furnishing large sums of money to the Cooley campaign and that Gov. Luther H.
