At the age of thirteen, Mrs. Bailey came to Durham and, not long .thereafter, joined the New Bethel Baptist Church.

Hodges, who had urged passage of the bills earli er during the legislative session, expressed sharp disappuintmtnt this week at the failure of the measures. 'So far. North Carolina is vir tually alone' of the hard core of southern states which has not enacted by statute or sought by legal means to curb the NAA- CP. Kelly M. Alexander, presi dent of the State NAACP who spoke against the bills In a pub lic hearing, tuld the TIMES this week: "It is encouraging to know that we have, here in North Carolina, representatives in government who are not fearful uf standing on the side of fair ness and Justice. The Senaton who killed the antl-NAACP bills sponsored by the Hodgas administration are to be com mended for displaying respect fur the conception of human equality which is the very es sence of our national political creed. Being guided by the Con stitution of the United States, that made a great contribution toward our state becoming a so ciety of free men with equality jf opportunity for all. "These men stood up and were counted on the side fight ing for the Ideals written into our basic law. June 8, 1957 will never be forgotten by Negroes in North Carolina liecause it was a day that some honorable men in our Senate recognized the constitutional guarantees of free speech and freedom of as sembly.” Bishop Frank Madison Reid of Kittrell, presiding prelate of the Second district of the A.M. E. Church, declared: “Freedom of speech, thought and action ring out the cause of the Senate!s high stand. Ten sion reduced, interracial confi dence and goodwill advanced. Thanks to God, praise to our Senate.” Chairman of the Greensboro NAACP Executive Board, Rev. MelVin C. Swann, wired the TIMES: ‘The Greenstforo chapter of the NAACP wishes to commend the Senate of North Carolina for its statemanlike action in defeating House Bill No. 984 and No. 1133 designed to intim idate NAACP supporters.” In Durham, Atty. C. O. Pear son, chairman of the state legal redress committee of the NAA CP said: “It is my feeling that the recent action of the State Sen ate in killing the anti-NAACP bills reflects the general feeling and thinking of the people throughout the State of North Carolina. It is the step forward and in the right direction. It is further an indication that the pendulum is swinging in the opposite direction of the anti feeling of many people in the State toward the Supreme Court's decision on public edu cation and the role played by the NAACP and other organiza tions in implementing the Court’s decision. “The thinking people of both races of our State should feel highly indebted to those cour ageous white people who ap peared before the committee in opposition to these bills, Rev. Finley of Pullen Memorial Bap tist Church of Raleigh; Rev Raymond Bost of the North Carolina Council of Churches and Mrs. Catherine Adams as a citizen.” Rev. William H. Fuller, presi dent of the Durham NAACP, asserted: “In my opinion, the members of the Senate, in voting against the bills to tighten laws against "barratry” and to require the NAACP to file membership lists and other information with the Secretary of State demon strated their belief that ail ci tizens should enjoy the same freedom.” Rev. R. L. Speaks, pastor of St. Mark A.M.E. Zion Church of Durham and an outspoken member of the Ministerial Alli ance on the segregation issue, stated: "Those of us in North Caroli na who believe in Christianity and freedom for all people are very gratified with the Senate action killing the propoied leg islation designed to' destroy the NAACP. It Is encouraging to know that the flickering flames of democracy and common sense are not entirely extin guished in the Old North State.” Nathaniel B. White, a leader is several civic organizations in Durham, said of the action; "By not submitting to the wishes of our politically ‘astute’ governor, the General Assem bly has given a glimmer of ^pe that North Carolina will not re treat to the Dark Ages.” (Continued from page One) on the campus.

He said he was more ttum a little in terested in learning why the Sen ate failed to pass the measures. Similar billa have been pass ed by most of the other tra- dititional deep South states.
