"We remem ber how Congressman Esch fought for the provision of involvement of community groups of proven effectiveness in the decision making process and the Manpower Planning Councils and we want him to join in making sure that this Bill becomes the best Bill possible in the shortest time possible” “Dr. Sullivan has said we will support your effort Con gressman Daniels. On his be half and on behalf of the cler gy and industry representa tives who support OIC and its related economic develop uiciu piujccis, i assure you that we shall not stop with this testimony today, like Paul Revere warned of the dangers of British attack in today, like we will in these next few days and weeks in 1975. contact all of the community based or ganizations in America. Our Spanish speaking brothers in SER, our Black brothers in the Urban League, the NAACP. PUSH, SCLC, our sisters in the National Council of Negro Women, our interracial coor dinating groups in the Urban Coalition, the Leadership Council on Civil Rights, our Church and Synagogue bro thers and sisters in the reli gious establishments will hear the warning. The word will go out to friend and foe alike that this Daniels' Bill may not be all that we want, but it’s so much better than what we’ve got and it’s a step toward what we eventually must get to turn mis country arouna. uur I community based organiza ► tione across the land, in the Appalachian hollows repre sented by Chairman Perkins, the vernerable Dean of pov erty fighters, will thank you and Congressman Esch if you work together to get results ... The non-profit, non-govern mental groups in the inner city ghettos, represented by the Equal Opportunity Committee Chairman, Congressman Augustus Hawkins, will thank you...The private grassroots organizations in the Spanish speaking barrios will thank you. In the long run, labor leaders and industry leaders and the Congress and the President must join in a good faith effort to provide more and more jobs for more and more people and reduce the welfare rolls and increase the payrolls. This requires the art of compromise, the art of the possible, we commend you Congressman Daniels for practicing that art, and we will help you,” Dawkins said.
