A.M.E. Zion Official Blasts Kennedy's Failure To
Take Civil Rights Stand On Recent Trip to N. C.
Alei^der Barnes, Director. Pub
lic Relations A.M.E. Zion Church
and candidate for the State Sen
ate from Durham County said
Wednesday Negroes can expect no
solace from Democratic candidate
John Kennedy’s visit to North Ca
rolina.
Speaking to a group of leaders
In both Raleigh and Durham
Barnes said that Senator Kennedy
answered the qi^iition that many
people asked, "What is thfe dif
ference between the civil rights
planks of the two parties ” ».
Bamos hold that Mr. Konnodjr's
failure to say anything about
civil rights whilo touring
state shimed very plainly thal|l
ho could stand to tho Domocratie
piMk in Harlem, Chicago or San
Francisco, but had l« run away
from It In North Carolina. ^
Barnes contrasted the lictions of
the two candidate* aad pointed to
the fact that Vice^msident Nixml
had spoken out in Greenbboro, Bir
mingham and Atlanta, He praised
NiXon for telling the people of
Roanoke* Virginia, last week that
he would have no part of a segre
gated meeting.
Barnof wont o« to said that
tho Domocratie plank was wiit-
toi* by northern liberals, wh«
l**ked holplossly on when tho
soNthomors aborted It by putting
Lylidon Johnson on tho ticket.
