Civil Rights Leaders Call
F
or New Democratic Policy
"The movement must move from'
the realm of moral protest to di
rect political participation in - our
society," declared Bob Moses of
the Student Non-Violent Coordinat
ing Committee, sounding the theme
of a three-day weekend conference
here.
Over 70 student leaders from all
parts of the country gathered dur
ing, the past weekend to discuss
the future of the desegregation
movement and 'its long range po
litical ramifications.
The meeting, hosted by The
Daily Tar Heel, and sponsored by
Students for a Democratic Society,
featured Michael Harrington, au
thor of "The Other America," as
its main speaker.
Harrington outlined the need to
put concrete social and economic
goals within the realm of the stu
dent protest movement.
"Our society has built-in discri
mination economically wh:ch hits
hardest at the Negro race in par
ticular," said Harrington.
"Our welfare programs gjve
diminishing returns as one goes
down the social ladder, and thus,
the Negro who has always been
economically depressed, receives
less and continues in the same
state.
-'"We need to organize the discon
tent that does exist for concrete
economic and social goals and we
must see to it that . the federal
government gives them to us," he
added.
The conference was held behind
closed doors at Gerrard Hall and
Graham Memorial.
"The meeting was held in order
to aliow free and open discussion
on all relevant topics," Robert A.
Haber, president of the sponsoring
organization said.
"We felt that the presence of the
press might inhibit a number of
students from deep south states
which at times have made it a
crime for just participating within
certain civil rights organizations.
"We felt also that participation
of the public would detract from
the main purpose of the confer
ence. which was to havs these
people discuss in as small a group
as possible what the future of the
region was and how they saw their
role in creating that future,
Haber added.
A recurring theme in the con
ference was the need for Ameri-
Di-Phi Debate
Will Be Open
To Any Speaker
Interracial Marria
To Be Debated
can politics to begin to be honest.
"You need nothing more radical
than-the Democratic Party plat
form of 1960 to work with. If we
could simply organize people be
hind that and see to it that the
Democratic Party does not back
down from its proposals, we would
go a long . way toward achieving
a desirable society,", one partici
pant said. ... ' I
Tom'Kahn, author of "The Un
finished Revolution," a pamphlet
on the sit-in movement called for
a realignment of the two political
parties.
'People who cast their votes
honestly for creative programs
don't want them to be destroyed
by an Eastland within the same
party," he declared.
"We need to rid the party of
the Eastlands and replace it with
liberal leadership capable of build
ing a democratic society," Kahn
said.
The participants to the confer
ence came from 11 Southern states,
New York and Michigan. Most
have been involved consistently
during the past two years in civil
rights activity.
The question of whpfhr

ine resolution condemns antf-in.
terracial marriage laws in the
state and in particular Article XIV
section 8 of the state constihif inn
which prohibits marriages between
whites and Negroes. The Di-PW
debates the resolution tonight at 7
p.m. in New West.
Conditional representative Wil
liam Dowell said that it would
make no difference whether the
resolution seemed to reflect on the
rest of the Student Body or not
since the public will be allowed to
speak out on the resolution at the
meeting tonight.
Copies of the resolutions will be
sent to most of the major news
papers in the state, to the State
General Assembly, the Governor
and the New York Times, if it is
passed.
The basis of the resolution is
that the laws prohibiting interracial
marriage are outdated and based
on bigotry. Their retention, Dow
ell said, indicates either a "cow
ardly or a negligent Legislature."
Dowell went on to say that the
state does not have the right to
interfere in the personal affairs of
a private citizen unless the public
welfare is involved. He said that
he had every reason to believe that
the southern white man would be
capable of restraining himself with
out the help of the state in the
matter.
Dowell went on to say that there
was the question of constitutionali
ty. The question has not been
brought before the supreme court
yet, he said, but the chances are
that when it is- the laws will be re
voked.

At Captured Laos Villages
VIENTIANE, Laos (UPI) A
high Laotian Government official
said Monday Soviet transport
planes already were landing sup-
piles at captured Muong Sing and
Nam Th in northwestern Laos and
warned of an imminent rebel of
fensive in the south.
The statement was made by Act
ing Foreign Secretary Sissouk Na
Champassak who cut short a mis
sion to friendly Southeast Asia na
tions with other government lead
ers to fly back here in view of the
latest civil war crisis.
He reported earlier government
statements that the pro-Communist
rebels who captured the two towns
near the border of Red China had
the support of Chinese Communist
troops and said a Red sweep
through the two towns would
have "formidable political consequences."
He said another Red offensive
was shaping up around the pro
vincial capital of Saravane, nearly
300 miles south of Vientiane and
midway between South Viet Nam
and Thailand where Laos is about
100 miles wide. He said the rebels
had captured outposts east north
and west of Saravane and cut one
of the two important roads lead
ing to the town.
Rebels Take Over
Muong Sing, only 20 miles from
the Chinese border, fell to rebel
forces last Thursday and American
military officials said some Chin
ese may have been involved. Nam
Tha, 30 miles from Muong Sing and
12 miles from the Chinese border,
fell Sunday to overwhelming forces.
The State Department said in
Washington it is consulting with
Britain "in an immediate effort to
have the cease-fire re-established"
in Laos. Britain and the Soviet
Union are co-chairmen of the Ge
neva Conference which achieved
a cease-fire in Laos May 3, 1961.
The United States repeated its
charge that the capture of Nam
Tha was a "serious violation" of
the cease-fire but officials in Wash
ington said they still had no con
firmation of rumors Chinese Com-
France Explodes
Underground Bomb
PARS UPI) A spokesman for
Defense Minister Pierre Messmer
disclosed Monday that France ex
ploded a nuclear device under
ground at its proving grounds in
the Sahara on May 1.
The first reports of the latest
test in President Charles de
Gaulle's "go-it-alone" nuclear pro
gram came from Washington. In
formed sources said it indicated
that the blast had been monitored
by American detection devices.
It was the first test carried out
by France in more than a year.
munists troops were involved.
In London, a Foreign Office
spokesman called the capture of
Nam Tha a serious breach of the
cease-fire and that "we think the
next step is for the International
Control Commission of India.- Can
ada and Poland to carry out an in
vestigation on the spot."
Reds Help Rebels
Sissouk told a news conference
Monday that Nam Tha was taken
by forces which included four ba
tallions from Red China's 43rd di
vision and seven battalions from
Communists North Viet Nam.
He criticized the United States
for trusting Russia's ability to con
trol the country as co-chairman of
the Geneva Conference and asked
angrily, "what can we say about
our friends who have confidence in
the Communists?"
Sissouk called the occupation of
Nam Tha an "insult" to American
diplomats who have received per
sonal promises from neutralist
Prince Souvanna Pheuma and pro
Communist Pathet Lao leader
Prince Souphenouveng that the
town of Nam Tha would not be
taken.
Diplomats and some minor Am
erican officials said the troops who
died at Nam Tha had faced loss, of
pay and a possible cut in rations
because the United States had cut
off economic aid to force the gov
ernment to enter a coalition.

Today
Good Chance
Exists For
Revocation
The Faculty Committee on Fra
ternities and Sororities meets to
day at noon to decide the fate of
the controversial "SO per cent
rule."
The Committee was given tha
power Friday by the Faculty Coun
cil to suspend the rule in favor of
an IFC plan to improve fraternity
scholarship.
Under the IFC plan any fratern
ity member whose overall grade
falls below C will be automatically
de-activated. De-activation would
mean that a brother would not be
allowed to participate in any fra
ternity affairs, pay bills or be con
sidered a member in any way.
Dr. Clifton H. Kreps, Jr.. Chair
man of the Committee on Fraterni
ties and Sororities, said Friday
that his committee was given per
mission to suspend the rule but
that it could put it back into ef
fect if the IFC plan does not work
out.
The rule will likely be repealed
on a trial basis. The faculty has
expressed its desire for the prob
lem to be handled by students in
"the Carolina student government
tradition." Dr. Kreps said, "It's
much better for students to regu
late themselves than to have the
faculty do it."
It is expected that the committee
will , move to suspend the 80 per
cent rule, in light of the IFC de
cision to impose a minimum C
average as a qualification for ac
tive fraternity membership.
Dr. Kr?,ps has said previously
that if the rule is not suspended
at the meeting today,
won't be done at all."

Sidewalk Art Show
Said Great Success
"The sidewalk art show was a
great success," beamed Dwane
Lowder of the Chapel Hill Art Lea
gue. "We are . very pleased with
the number of people who came
by."
The three-day exhibit was the
third such event in Chapel Hill.
Artists attributed its success to an
increasing climate of art apprecia
tion in the community.
"Financially, we doubled last
year's figures," Lowder continued.
"Over 150 works were sold, mostly
drawings and water colors. Ten
sculptures were purchased, and
about 20 oil paintings. Abstract
works sold better than ever."
A greater desire for original art
has been noted by the League.
"This gives many students a
chance to sell their first painting,"
commented Lynn Deal, art teacher
at Chapel Hill High School. "I
sold my first in one of these ex
hibits." "We were bragging last year of
selling 400 dollars' worth of art
in three days. This year it was
over 900 dollars.".

of charge.
He will play Liszt's Piano Con
certo in E-flat Major. Other works
on the program include Dvorak's
Symphony No. '5 and Enesco's Ru
manian Rhapsody No. 1.
The program will open with Sym
phony in E Minor from "The New
World" of Dvorak. This work has
special interest for Americans be
cause it was written while the Aus
trian composer was in this coun
try, and it presents some of his
impressions of the New World.
The vigorous rhythms and melo
dies, such as "Going Home" tune
of the second movement, which
later became the basis for the
song, have made this one of the
most widely played compositions
in symphonic literature.
Nationalistic
George Enesco is a twentieth
century composer who in his writ
ing displays a sensitive and na
tionalistic musician's awareness of
the spirit of his people. -Rumanian
Rhapsody No.- 1, one of two he
WTOte, shows in its imagery, the
capture of Enesco's imagination
by melodies of the Gypsy fiddlers
of his .own homeland. .
Franz Liszt was accused of say
ing, "I can make my piano dream
r sing at pleasure, re-echo with
exulting harmonies, and rival the
most skilled bow in swiftness," but
tiie statement was really made by
his friend and. contemporary Hec
tor Berlioz, who imagined Liszt
confidently praising the richness
of his own pianistic texture. But
Berliez admitted himself that that
Liszt's exploitation of texture in
his E-flat Major Concerto is more
than outstanding.
Composed in 1849 and first per
formed in Weimar with Berlinez
as conductor and Liszt as soloist,
this Concerto is typical of concerto
writing in the Romanic period of
music history.
IFC President Jim Dillashaw has
said members of the IFC felt "it
would be better if we (the IFC)
could have the matter placed en
tirely in our hands in sort of a
trial period, rather than having it
hanging over our heads."
The 80 rule has been under fire
from various segments of the stu
dent government. Fraternity mem
bers as well as student govern
ment officials have criticized the
rule because they say it imposes
an unfair restriction on fraternity
members who make a "C" average
but belong to a house which is put
on probation or suspended under
the rule.
Under the rule, a fraternity loses
rushing privileges if 80 per ceDt or
more of its members do not make
a "C" for two successive semesters.
The first semester in which a fra
ternity does not make a "C", it is
placed on probation. If it again
fails to reach the 80 per cent mark,
it loses rushing privileges.
