The members of Phi Beta Sig
ma Fraternity, Incorporated "#ill
work in their respective spheres
of influence for a broad militant
program which will seek com
pliance with the President's Civil
Rights Bill of 1904; the Anti-Pov
erty program and legislation in the
Congress for extension of the be
nefits of the Equal Opportunity
Housing law of 1963 to all fed
erally assisted housing built prior
to 1963 and legislation to be pass
ed by the 89th Congress which
would treat assassination of any
person in Federal Service, or du
ty, or travelling to and from a
prescribed destination under Fed
eral orders as a federal crime.
In announcing the decisions of
their 50th Anniversary Conclave,
Maurice A. Moore National Presi
dent of the 200 Chapter Negro
collegiate organization said, 'the
membership of Phi Beta Sigma
Fraternity are deeply concerned
over the breakdown of law and
order in Mississippi and other
southern states in 1964 and shock
ed at the actions of some State
and Federal officials who have
condoned or looked the other
way as Negroes and other minor
ity people 'aere murdered, bomb
ed out or shot at. The Fraterni
ty is so concerned over the wan
ton actions of some people in
0 Certain areas of the South that we
have asked the President of the
United States to use all his pow
ers of moral persuasion and all
Other legal means of his great
Office given him by the Consti
tution of the United States to
guarantee protection to all of o|jr
citizens wherever they are."
The 50th Anniversary Conclave
of the national body met in the
Statler Hilton, Washington, D. C.
frfcm December 26th to December
30th/ 1664.
ffhi Beta Sigma Fraternity is
one' of four National known Neg
ro Collegiate organizations with a
membership of some 40,000 college
trained men. The Fraternity was
founded at Howard University in
1914 by A. Langtson Taylor, C.
Brown and I. L. Scruggs. It seeks
advancement for Negroes through
national programs in the fields
of business, education and culture.
The delegs£j, approved sending
of a telegram to President John
son, by Attorney Oliver C. East
man, National Director of Social-
Actions asking him to use all of
his powers, executive, legal and
otherwise to guarantee protect
ion of all citizens of the United
States. Other resolutions present
ed by Mr. Eastman asked the 89th
Congress to reduce the number
of representives in the Congress
from all States who flagrantly de
ny Negroes and minorities their
basic rights to register and vote
and to participate in the political
affairs of their respective states.
Another asked the Presidpnt
of the United States to deny fed
eral aid and patronage of any type
whatsoever to States depriving
Negroes and other minority gro
ups of their voting rights, until
said states had indicated willing
ness to abide by the Constitution
of the United States.
