But, it is unfortunate that it took the riots in the ghettos to focus the at-1 tention of the white leadership on the long existing problems of the ghetto. The summer's riots were the I natural psychological result of long years of oppression and neglect and the eruption of suppressed rage as | a last resort." Asked if he felt the riots have hurt responsible Negro leadership! goals achieving progress through j political means, he said he thoughtj responsible Negro leadership may have been hurt in some pockets but "in the over-all program, no! "There are some whites who heretofore have not concerned [ themselves with Negro problems,"; he continues. "The riots have open ed their eyes to the seriousness of the problem. Many of these people will now concern themselves with these problems facing the nation." Turning to the matter of politi t cal goals for Negroes, he said: "Po litical goals should include more municipal employment of Negroes. Negroes who meet the qualifica tions for the jobs should have an opportunity to fulfill them on an impartial basis. "This issue has not been met any way in a satisfactory manner| because of the reluctance ot city aa-| ministrations to employ competent] Negroes. The issue is only being met! through political pressures on those! holding political office to employ qualified Negroes. Entrenched civil, service bodies would be obvious] antagonists of Negro political lea-j ders. This is one of the fundamen-1 tally frustrating problems. AU types] of pressures have been used. How-| ever, to date unsatisfactory progress] is being made." Stewart was asked what the new leadership's posture would be to-1 ward white suburbs in such matters as annexation and various types of, intergovernmental cooperation; and| to what extent the community -programs have contributed to a strongei political identity of the Negro community. He said the new leadership's po- j sition would be "to cooperate in all matters that are in the best interest of the community. The preferential treatment that some suburbs now receive at the expense of the cities would be curtailed." The community action pro-! grams, he added, "have been of very j great benefit in encouraging Negroes [ to participate in political activities! week. Making the presentation is Dr. Lewis C.

Never be fore has a Mississippi jury found a white defendant guilty of a major crime against a civil rights worker. The verdict is a tribute not only to the thoroughness of the Federal Government's prosecution under di rection of Assistant Attorney General John Doar but also to the jurors who turned their backs on a hoary Dixie tradition to uphold the American i deal of equal justice. It further de- . monstrates that a determined effort by the Department of Justice can re sult in conviction. There are other cg#es which the government should now proceed to prosecute. xThe trend toward equal justice in Mississippi was first signaled in 1964 by the hung juries in the two trials of Byron de la Beckwith, charged with the murder of NAACP Field Director Medgar Evers. In previous instances there had been either prompt acquit tals or, more generally, no arrest, no indictment and no trial by the state machinery of white persons accused of killing Negroes. In the Philadelphia case the state refused to act. Gratifying as is this verdict, it cannot be forgotten that the maxi mum penalty resulting from the mur der of three men is a ten-year jail sentence and a $5,000 fine for con spiracy. A murder of this kind should be a Federal crime, with commen surate penalties, as is provided in a civil rights bill now pending before the Congress. for the best interest of the Negro community. It is more successful as an autonomous activity because the majority of Negroes living in ghettos feel that the municipal go vernment is responsible for the con ditions under which .they live and could do more to upgrade them."

"To Sir, With Love" One of Year's Biggest Hits NEW YORK—If there were any doubt that "To Sit, With Love" is one of the year's big gest hits, (and there never really was) Columbia Pictures has revealed that the Sidney Poitier starrer grossed a rec ord $3,625,000 in ten showcase weeks in the metropolitan New York-New Jersey area, and the company is going ahead with an unprecedented "encore" showcase engagement begin ing in metropolitan New York on October 25. The spectacular figure rep resents the gross from 28 the atres, and is the biggest tally ever to be for a film playing the New York area in one group of theatres. Accord ing to the distributor, however, theatre patronage continued at such a heavy pace during the final weeks of the first show case that it was obvious the audience potential was still enormous. To meet this popular de mand, "To Sir. With Love" was scheduled to open m 16 metropolitan New York thea tres on October 25 Tubman "Y" Sponsors Tour To Washington The Harriet Tubman Branch YWCA will sponsor a tour to Washington, I) C.

Hot Summers, Hotter Winters Are Predicted Nathan Garrett, Deputy Di- I rector of the North Carolina j Fund, expressed the opinion | that the violence and social turmoil of the past summer will not remain a summer time activity, when he addressed the Unitarian Universalist Fel lowship in Durham last Sun day. "I'm dismayed," he said, "but I think things are going to get worse before they get j better." Garrett spoke on the topic, , "The War on Poverty After the Long, Hot Summer," and gave his personal assessment of | the Great Society program as it stands at this time. He also j outlined what he believes to be j the major need for making the war on poverty effective. "The people who participat ed in this summer's riots are j are hard to classify," he said, "because all kinds of people I were involved, not just the poor and unemployed. I think they were a group of persons j representing rampant, uncon- | trolled, and unorganized pow er." He likened the power of j these people to lightening, that j is not completely understood, but when unleashed, can be destructive. "We must learn how to har-_ ness and control this power for constructive ends," Garrett stated. "One way It can be con trolled is to organize the peo ple and allow representative leadership to emerge. "The problem for existing institu tions such as the Office of Economic Opportunity is to rero in on this, and to assist in the organization of neigh bo rho o d and community groups." Ironically. OEO has turned j down the challenge, for its | Director, Sargent Shriver, has ordered all anti-poverty per- j ionnel supported by federal i funds not to indulge in any or ganizing or political activities among the poor.
