maPAU IN TILL MUBDEI! USE REVISnED BY EBONY CHICAGO, ni Now that the Emmett Till case has been over for than a year, the October Ebony Investigates those involved to see what happened to the prin cipals in the case. After the tri al and acquittals and every thing, Money, Mississippi is ominously quiet. At first it ap pears that Till has been forgot ten. This is an illusion, says Ebony, a curtain thrown up to shut out the memory of the boy, though dead, won’t go away. There are Kponspicious absen ces. Gone are^the old man Mose Wright, Willie Reed and Mandy Bradley, who fingered the ac cused killers. Roy Bryant and J. W. Milam fell Ihto disfavor with local whites and moved away. Milam settled on a farm near Cleveland, Miss., and Bryant sold his small store where the alleged incident took place that led to Till’s death. In In'dianola, Bryant "applied unsuccessfully for many jobs but was turned down. When he applied for a job as a policeman the chief of police told him, “Y6u’re lucky to be a citizen.” Mrs. Mamie Bradley, mother of Till Is now enrolled at The Chicago Teachers College. Mose Wright, who defied threats and identified the accused murders, is living near Chicago. He told Ebony: “I used to think I could not live without seeing cotton stalks. Man I ain’t seen cotton in a year and I'm still living.” Mandy Bradley, who testified against Milam and Bryant Is living in Chicago with her hus band. She told Ebony that she can’t'' return even though her mother is seriously ill. Willie Heed, who also testified for the prosecution, recently underwent an operation for stomach ulcers in Chiacgo. £lPostal Workers Alert Dept- As To Hiring Bias WASHINGTON, D. C. Postal employees have alert ed the Post Office Department of their concern over fair em ployment policies. With heavy pressure on minority problems in the South the employee or ganization has viewed with in creasing concern the knife-edge pattern of discrimination deal ing with promotions and assign ment of N^ro employees. In an Executive decree, No. 10590, issued from the White House on January 18, 1953, President Eisenhower stated the policy of the Federal Go vernment as being one of equal opportunity consistent with Law for all qualified persons. He further established the President’s Committee on Fair Employment Policy of which Vice President Nixon is a mem ber. Along with the establish ment of that committee the rules of procedure and responsi bility for meeting the problem of discriminatioh were laid down. Each agency bead be came responsible for the execu tion of the order in his agency.
