The rally was scheduled for

] when Kasper started to speak
j Park Supt. F. W. Pickens told
; him "You can’t speak without a
permit.”
City police moved in and led
Kasper to his auto, not even al
lowing him to pause for a tele
vision interview in the park.
Police also refused to allow the
Rev. Fred Stroud of Bible Pres
byterian Church, a friend of
Kasper, to hand out "religious”
literature.
“You can’t advertise any
thing in this park,” a police'
man told Stroud.
The meeting then " moved
outside the city limits to an
open field where about 200
persons stood in 90-plus de
gree heat to listen to the
speeches.
The grass in the field had re
cently been cut, apparently in an

to let Kasper speak.
At the same time Kasper spoke,

Davis was fold that (here
was no objection to Miss Co
wart’s faith because her af
filiation with the Baha’i move
ment was known before she
was hired, but ‘“missionary
work” on the school grounds
was objectionable.
Davis said that Miss Cowart, had j
been told that it would hare been ;
ail right if she were a Methodist
or Baptist, but not if she belong
ed to the Catholic church. In con
firming this through a telephone
i conversation, Miss Cowart said
! she got permission to have copies

iby the school’s commercial de-!
i partment. but when Waters saw \
; the copy he told her it could not J
j be done by the school.
“He. told me,” she said, “that !
1 it would be all right, to do it for !
Methodists or Baptists, but not for
Catholics. ‘That would be pro.se- j
iytizing.’ he said. ’ ’ (The Baha’i
group has no connection with the
Catholic church.)
At the meeting, Davis wishing
to know the board's opinion on
religious liberty, said: “I want to
find out exactly what, is the j
board's criterion for hiring teach- i

i torious John Kasper, who has
j made a record for himself byj
traveling around the country •
stirring up racial strife and vio- :
lence. has let if be known that;
his next base of operation may ■
be North Carolina. Kasper now

i prevent his entry into this state,
j especially since he made it clear
;in announcing his coming that
! his sole purpose here would be to
| fight integration The significant
thing about Kasper's coming and
his activities in other places is the
fact that, wherever he goes in his
law-breaking activities, he Is ob
viously receiving both financial
and moral support. Kasper said in
j announcing his North Carolina
i visit that- his base of operations
! would be Durham because he had
j contacts there. Why wouldn’t it

j not want him in this state, to
check and see who his Durham
contacts are and who is promot
ing or will promote his visit here
COMPLIMENTS: The Southern
Bell Telephone Company should
be complimented for employing
Negro women to distribute their
beautiful new directory to Its Ne

gesture that we would welcome

firms could give to Negroes
Ts all the businesses of Raleigh
would take a moment to consider
this problem, Ihe need for more
employment for Negroes here and
the relationship between employ

I is likely that they would make a
I new approach to the subject, It
is earnestly hoped that this will
soon be done
