Liberals Hail
Order, But See
Its. Weakness
YORK — President
KdMpdy’s order banning dis-
criSnation in federally assisted
hobsing was viewed here this
week by most liberal organiza
tions with cautious optimism.
The NAACP welcomed the
order but described it only as
a “first step.”
The American Jewish Con
gress pointed out that the
order "leaves urrtouched a broad
area of public and private hous
ing that enjoys federal assist
ance, Thu Congress said in u
statement on the President's
order.
President Kennedy signed the
order last Tue.sday. It bans dis
crimination: in sale or, lease oi
housing facilities owned or
operated by , the federal govern
ment.
The order has been long
sought by many civil rights or
ganizations.
Major responsibility for its ex
ecution will lie with the Feder
al Housing Administration,
whose chief is Robert Weaver,
first Negro to head the organizu
tion.
NAACP Secretary Roy Wil
kins wired a message of com
mendation to Kennedy on the
signing of the order and said it
was welcomed" in the anticipa
tion that it will remove long
standing barriers to freedom of
residence.”
The NAACP leader additional
ly noted that “the order doe*
not go as far in coverage as has
been recommended over a long
period of years by the NAACP
and more recently by the
Kennedy, above, signs

operation to convict eight per

Observers saw signs of com
promise in the attitude of mer
chants over the week-end on
the issue. They pointed out that
29 persons who stage a sit-in al
S. and W. on Tuesday were not
arrested although they were re

Last week, more than ISO were
ari-ested for similar sit-ins at
Miiyfair and the S and W
