C., FRIDAY AFTERNOON, AUGUST 29, 1952 Hurricane Heads Toward Coast Negro Leaders Are Satisfied ;, Jith Stevenson NEW YORK, (IP) Gov. Adlai E. Stevenson today reaped the political benefits of his strong stand on civil rights by hearing from an assortment of Negro groups powerful in the East that they were now “satisfied” on this volatile issue. Stevenson received advice and praise from a number of political quarters, ranging from Bernard M. Baruch, the elderly financier and economic expert, to Rep. Adam Clayton Powell Jr., the Democratic Harlem congressman. Stevenson said his “very interest ing” talk with Baruch covered a number of economic topics, par ticularly the growing threat of in flation. POWELL FOR HIM Powell, who only days ago advo cated a Negro boycott of the Dem ocratic national ticket, had a com plete change of heart which he at tributed to Stevenson’s addresses last night before the New York Democratic convention and the Liberal Party. “We are thoroughly satisfied with the whole civil rights issue aa presented by the Democratic candi date,” Powell said. “We are 100 per cent in back of him.” Rep. Emanuel Cellaer (D-NY)., chairman of the House Judiciary Committee and an ardent civil rights advocate, predicted after talking with Stevenson that the Democrats, given a “reasonable working majority” of the House and Senate this fall, would enact a compulsory FEPC law. “We won’t give a fig for some of those recalictrant members from the South.” he said.
