If the United States can’t take vigorous action to help win freedom in Africa’s troubled zones, how can we ev nect to maintain the trust, the friendshin of the newly in- denendent and soon to be in- fienendent peoples of Africa and Asia?’ ‘‘Since the turn of the een- ♦ury Nettro leaders and scholars tinve exnresopd the con'#fri of ,Nei»ro Americans for the elimi nation of colo'Tjalism and all i*s pvlU’. Mr Brown continned “While our Conference will not initiate a new interest on the n"rt of American Ne»roe«, it will laiirrch a more agmsslve determination to make o»ir in fluence felt on the nolirt»« of our Government in the erlflcal areas of that vast continent, esneciallv south of the Sahara.’ This will be the largest gather Ine of ton Neero le&demViln ever concentrated to examine TT.

(AN Photo) Integratlonists Delighted at Vote in BIRMINGHAM. Ala. — Inte gration leaders were delighted at the recent vote which will mean a new form of city govern ment here. 'The vote was 18,968 to 16,- 415 to substitute a mayor coun cil system for the pre.sent three man commission. One of the com missioners is Eugene “Bull’ Con nor. who is in charge of police and is known for his harsh treat mt^nt of Negroes and their white friends. “The Ne(»ro vote wa.s mo.st '•ritical and crucial.’ said the Rev. Fred L 5^ nttleswnrth, nresident of the Alabama Chris tinn Movement for Human T?'»hts. which has sparked the Inteorntion drive here for sever al years. “T fhlnV the vote reor''sents ^ho v...rfinnlrrtf of a maior chnni^e ^irminuVinm. At least some '••ViKp nennle Vtawo exnre!«ed tii« is far different than it has been. as the first Pan-African Confer ence, organized by Dr. W E B DuBois in 1919 “The vote does not mean, however, that the total white community is ready to bring its thinking up to date. But then somebody has to be out in front. “The attitude and deportment of the city commissioners themr selves gave concrete evidence that Birmingham city govern ment has for too long been run on a personal basis, given to quarrels, bickering and tur moil. “I hope this will also be the beginning of the end of Mr. Bull Connor’s long reign of ter ror abuse, and misuse of power.” Two days after the election, Negroes held a mass meeting at which they voted to renew a buving withdrawal affecting the downtown area. This has been one of the means of nrotes* affainst segregation and dis crimination here. The Rev Shuttleswnrth .said that an intensified drive for in'teg»'ation here will be carried on first by local neople and fripnds will be called in from other- organizations as needed. Full sunnort for the new cam palgn has been pledged by both the Southern Christian Leader- .*ip Conference (SCLC), At lanta, headed by Dr. Marftn L. King, Jr. and the Southern Con ference Educational Fund (8CEJD, New Orleans, headed by Bishop Edgar A. Love The Rev Shuttlesworth is secretary for SCLC and a director of SCEF. There n*ay still be hurdlei to putting the new form of govern ^ ment into effect in Birming ham. Connor and other com j missioners may fight in the I courts to stay in offine until * their terms expire three year* I from now. ’ Even after the council-mfyor ' system is put into effect, t^ere will still be barriers to fulj use of the growing strength of the Negro voters. One of these is a rule against voting for one- or I two candidates. This method Is known as “single-shooting’ and has resulted in election of Ne groes to office in other cities. Under the mayor-council sys tern, eve'-v voter will be requir ' ed to vote for nine p*-rjnns for the nine man council. Otherwise his ballot win not be counted.
