At the School Board Meeting when this recommendation was an agenda item the AASAS rep resentative did make a statement saying that the seniority idea was not the big issue, and that the real concern is job security. The whole problem of a diminishing school population ana the decrease in positions available is a very difficult situation to meet and so we P-ecala employees are very cogni zant of the problems you face in dealing with the situation. We have found it very difficult to come up with any one proposal, or a set of proposals, that would provide any im provement over our P-seale subcommittee1s previous report on this subject to' the Superintendent. Let.'3 look at what is gcin. on. Currently personnel placement actions are based on the existing ASD's. These may or may not be satisfactory and there is nothing sacred about them - they can be revised or terminated.

WILLIE COLES POLICE BRUTALITY CASE On September 6th, Willie Coles, a colored citizen of Arlington, was brutally beaten by two Fairfax policemen. Coles had gotten stuck in the soft shoulder of the road near the Culmore Shopping center. A white man with a truck pulled him out and charged three dollars. Then a Fairfax police car drove up and charged him with reckless driving. This car radioed for help and an Arlington police car cane. One of the officers in the Arlington police car knew Coles. This officer told Mr. Coles that if he would go quietly with the Fairfax police, nothing would happen to him. As Mr. Coles was getting out of his car in obedience to the directions of the Arlington police, a Fairfax policeman hit him on the head, knooking him to the ground; then continued to strike him four or five more blows. Later, when Coles was handcuffed and strapped to a metal stretcher, the Fair­ fax police, before loading him into a police truck, raised the head of the strecher about 18 inches from the hard g r o u M and let it fall three or four times. Finally, Mr. Coles was taken to Alexandria Hospital where it was necessary for him to remain for three days. At his trial in October, before the Assistant Trial Justice at Fairfax, Mr. Coles was charged with reckless driving, resisting or striking an officer, and dis­ orderly conduct. He was found guilty and fined $145. This case is now being ap­ pealed by the lawyers retained by Mr Coles' employer and by an NAACP lawyer, Mr. Otto Tucker. One of the attorneys representing Mr. Coles in October said: The trial was a farce. The Fairfax police smiled and whispered to each other during the hearing and gave the impression that they thought they had done something smart." He also reported that they scowled and were heard to curse the Arlington policemen who testified to the fact that the Fairfax police had used wholly unnecessary brutality while making the arrest. The Fairfax police,who administered this brutal beating, received no reprimand. Therefore, if legal action is not taken against them, the attitude of the Fairfax Police Force will continue to be that they can abuse a citizen with impunity when­ ever they feel so inclined. You too are a citizen of Northern Virginia. Are you willing to let a neighboring police force get by with this? * * * # • * HAVE YOU PAID YOUR NAACP DUES THIS YEAR?

Virginia, striking down Stateimposed segregation in interstate transportation; Swear.t v. Painter, compell­ ing the University of Texas to admit a Negro to its Law School; and Shelley v.

POLL TAX DEADLINE TO VOTE IK 1954 IS SATURDAY, HAY 1st Only five states still require their citizens to pay a poll tax before they can vote. Virginia is one of these five. Our poll tax was adopted at the Con­ stitutional Convention of 1902. From the debates it is clear that the purpose was to decrease the number of Negro votes. Ur. Carter Glass said: "The article of suffrage which the Convention vdll today adopt does not necessarily deprive a single white man of the ballot., but will inevitably cut from the existing electorate four-fifths of the Negro voters. (Applause) That was the purpose of this convention; that vdll be the achivement." Question: "Mill it not be done by fraud and discrimination?" Mr. Glass: "By fraud, no; by discrimination, yes. But it vdll be by discrimina­ tion within the letter of the law, and not in violation of the law. Discrimina­ tion! 'Thy that is precisely what we propose; that is exactly what this conven­ tion was elected for---to discriminate to the very extremity of permissable ac­ tion under the limitations of the Federal Constitution, with a view to the elimi­ nation of every Negro voter who can be gotten rid of, legally without materially impairing the numberical strength of the white electorate . . . It is a fine discrimination indeed that we have practiced in the fabrication of this plan, and now, Mr. President, we ask the convention to confirm our work and emancipate Virginia." The enclosed leaflet gives instructions on how to pay your poll tax and register. If you are not already a qualified voter, become one! Pass this in­ formation on to your friends and neighbors. Vie cannot van out fight for firstclass citizenship unless Negroes over 21 take the trouble to vote. MEMBERSHIP DRIVE The Membership Committee met in March and made plans for our drive which is to run through May. Since we have so few workers, we are asking each member to get three new members. Help us make our Branch one of the strongest in the Country. Enroll your friends in the NAACP to aid in the fight to end segregation and discrimination and secure full freedom by 1963. Prizes will be awarded to the persons securing the highest and second high­ est number of members above 25. Anyone taking out a 325 or 310 membership vdll receive free a gold NAACP pin.

Mr. Marshall had a special message for those of his own people who short-sightly or v/ith intent have chosen to fear integration and stand in the way of its accomplishment. Mr. Marshall said, in essence: "e are Americans and must compete and be able to compete, not with just our own ten percent, but with all, with 100 percent of Americans. "Anyone who can't hold his job in such a,society can go back down South and chop cotton.

MEMBERSHIP DRIVE PRIZES TO BE AWARDED The membership drive, conducted by our Membership Chairman, Mr. Birdie Alston, will be officially closed on June 13th. Prizes will be awarded, the most interest­ ing of which is the prize which will go to the member securing the most memberships in excess of twenty-five. The prizes will be announced at the dinner. During the drive, each member has been given a quota of two new members and there is still time to meet that quota if you work hard between now and June 13th. The recent decision of the U. S. Supreme Court in the school cases is proof of the value of the NAACP organization. (Editor's Note: Please friends, don't get the idea from the above that new memberships are restricted only to the period of this drive. Personal satisfaction in having your friends and neighbors working with you in this most worthwhile of causes should be as valuable as any prize. Memberships are always welcome and always desired. I hope you will work for them every day of the year!) CAN YOU VOTE IN THE PRIMARY THIS YEAR 1 It is still not too late to register!

Persons in the Armed Services may also vote without paying poll tax. (Those who failed to pay 1953 poll tax by May 1st cannot vote this year.) PROGRESS OF OUR MEMBERSHIP DRIVE Our membership chairman, Mr. Birdie W. Alston, and his committee have done splendid work enrolling new members. The prize for securing the largest number of members, a U. S. Savings Bond, was awarded to Mrs. Marjory Taylor at our Annual Dinner last June. Mrs. Taylor very generously turned this Bond over to our Branch to be used for the Freedom Fund. However, we are still about thirty members short of our quota of 300 because many of our members of long standing have overlooked renewing their memberships. If you have received a letter or a 'phone call from Mr. Alston saying your membership has expired, please send dues in at once. We want to exceed our quota by October 1st so that our Branch will make the "Honor Roll" at the convention of Virginia Branches. If you would like to have someone call and pick up your dues, telephone one of the following: Mr. B. W. Alston, JA-L-0835,' Miss Nancy Johnston, JA-2-7332; Mr. W. R. Minor, JA-2-6581; Mrs. B. S. Marx, JE-2-L387; or Mrs. W. F. Finner, JE-L-0851. THE FREEDOM FUND CAMPAIGN At a State-wide meeting in Richmond August 21st, Branch representatives adopted revised Freedom Fund quotas. Our new Arlington quota for 195^ is $765. Our Annual Dinner in June netted about $226 and we have received contributions from individuals and several churches but we still have about $400 more to raise. What is this money for? We must have both funds and manpower sufficient to wage successful fights against racial segregation and discrimination. While the U. S. Supreme Court has outlawed segregated public schools in Virginia, legal battles will be required in many counties, towns, and cities to force compliance with the Supreme Court decree. These legal battles will cost the Virginia Conference of NAACP Branches a minimum of $10,000 for the rest of 195k. We must share in the National Battle Front by contributing another $10,000 to our National office b y December 31, 195k. Finally, we must pay off a balance of $13,000 in long-overdue legal accounts for Virginia school cases, transpor­ tation cases, police brutality cases, etc:Appeals for contributions will go out to members next month. In the meantime, please come to our September 30th meeting. We need you there to help with ideas to make this fund raising as painless as possible! * * * * * * * � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
