Kennedy Vows Action on Civil Rights Legislation Senator John F. Kennedy has pledged prom pt action on a com prehensive civil rights bill at the next session o f Congress. He told a crowded press con ference on September 1 that the new bill would embrace all the commitments in the civil rights plank o f the Democi'atic Party platform. Senator Kennedy challenged the sincerity of the Republican lead ership and charged that their past record, “including the record of these recent weeks, indicates that no action on the great fronts of social legislation, including civil rights, will be possible until there is a new President strongly sup porting such action and a new C ongress with a mandate from the people.” Twenty-three Democratic Sen ators who supported each of the key civil rights measures this session joined Senator Kennedy in his pledge for action on civil rights legislation. The Senator pointed out that only five Repub licans had voted right on all the measures. Senator Kennedy stated: “In order to implement this pledge and assure prom pt action I have asked Senator Clark and Con gressm an Celler to constitute a committee to prepare a compre hensive civil rights bill, embody ing our platform commitments, for introduction at the beginning o f the next session. We will seek the enactment o f this bill early in that Congress.” He added: “ Further, I give my assurance that in whatever posi tion I hold in public office I will support and take every step nec essary to protect the full consti tutional right of every Ameri can.” Attacking the Republicans, the Senator stated: “The time has com e to set the record straight on civil rights legislation in this wind-up session of Congress.” He charged that “progressive legis lation has not been the aim o f the Republican leadership. Their aim has been: 1) To block the mini mum wage bill (which in its first year of operation would have raised the w ages of an estimated one million N egro workers), the aged health care, housing and education bills (which also would have meant major advances in the rights o f our lower income and minority group members).” Calls for Executive Action Senator Kennedy declared that if the “Republican Administration were sincere about its pleas for civil rights, it would take execu tive action now— executive action to end inequality in all Federal housing program s as the Civil Rights Commission unanimously proposed nearly a year ago and which the President could do by a stroke of his pen— and executive action to make effective the Gov ernment Contracts Committe, which for 7 years o f Mr. Nixon’ s chairmanship has taken no en forcement action aside from one or two threats in the District of Columbia.” Senator Kennedy added: “Such Presidential action, not legisla tion, is what is required to en force the covenants against racial discrimination in all government contracts. And if the Republican Administration were sincere in advancing civil rights it would make more effective use of the new powers to protect the right to vote granted by Congress after 9 weeks o f debate earlier this session.” Lashing out at religious bigot ry, the TU C statement endorsing the Democratic nominees stated: “As life-long victims o f bigotry we reject in totality all form s of bigotry whether it com es from a prejudice on race, color, or re-: ligious creed, for bigotry in any area of human life is a malicious disease and hurts human beings.” The TUC also attacked “Repub lican Big Business” which “owns the sweat shops and open shops in the South that exploit the working man, both N egro and white.” “The challenging sixties demand that the Presi dent place himself in the very thick of the fight, that he care passionately about the fate of the people he leads” — Senator Kennedy Citing the fact that Negroes suffer m ost in periods o f reces sion, the TUC statement pointed out that “we had two recessions under Eisenhower.” Praising Senator John F. Ken nedy and Senator Lyndon B. Johnson, the 1000-word labor doc ument asserted that the Council “earnestly believes that the chances o f the N egro people for greater progress in achieving first-class citizenship everywhere in this country will be greater if we stick with our historic allies, support the political party that is more responsive to the people’ s needs and which is now repre sented by the Kennedy-Johnson ticket.” Accusing Vice President Nixon o f having been “too many things to too many people in his political career,” the TUC stated that it “found nothing in the record of Richard Nixon that makes us trust him on issues.” thought and o f action to meet together to throw light on these prob lems. The test for all o f us must be the Constitution. My hope is that this conference will contribute to a constructive atmosphere in which the spirit o f the Constitution is respected everywhere in our land. This is a good time for the rededication of the Democratic Party and the American people to the aims and principles o f the Constitution. That is what our people and the world expect and are waiting for.” Senator Kennedy is issuing invitations to the Conference this week. The Conference will divide itself into three working panels: 1. Executive action 2. Legislation 3. State and Local Leadership. Each o f the panels will report and give its recommendations in person to Senator Kennedy at the conclusion of the two-day Conference. Senator Kennedy will address the Conference participants and the public at a New Frontiers o f Freedom Rally in New York City on the afternoon o f October 12. Mayor Robert F. W agner o f New York City will act as host to the Conference. Senator Hubert Humphrey of Minnesota will be Confer ence Chairman. Participants will include Mrs. Roosevelt, Herbert Lehman, Governor Williams, Senators Clark and Hart, Congressmen Celler, Dawson, Diggs, Nix and Powell— and many other champions o f constitutional rights. J.F.K. to End Bias in U.S. Judiciary Senator John F. Kennedy told a group of N egro lawyers repre senting the National Bar Associ ation last week that “in a new Democratic Administration there will be far better representation, on the basis of merit, o f persons of all racial groups” in the Fed eral Judiciary. The lawyer’ group included s Elmer C. Jackson, o f Kansas City, president o f the National Bar As sociation; Edward B. Toles of Chicago, chairman o f the Judi ciary Committee; William S. Thompson o f Washington, D. C., executive board member; Theo dore W. C og gs of Milwaukee, 2nd vice President; Leroy G. Charles of Chicago Regional Director; Roy C. Garvin o f Washington, D. C., and Mrs. Rosa Charles of Chicago, president o f the Wom en’ auxiliary of the National Bar s Association. Senator Kennedy told the group: “With more than 4,000 lawyers in this country there are many outstanding N egroes from whom to choose future judges.” The full text o f the Senator’ s remarks follows: “As the guardian of our consti tutional rights, the Federal Ju diciary must have at all levels the best possible judges. This means that appointments must be made on the basis o f merit. But it also means that an active search must be made to find outstanding men and women of all races and back grounds. “With more than 4,000 Negro lawyers in this country there are many outstanding N egroes from whom to choose future judges. President Truman led the way in appointing the first N egro life time Federal judge and the first N egro on the Court o f Appeals. But the fact that only one other N egro has been appointed as a life-time Federal judge and that no N egro has been appointed a District Judge show how far we still have to g o in making our ju diciary representative of the best of all our people. “I assure you that in a new Democratic Administration there will be far better representation, on the basis o f merit, o f persons o f all our racial groups, including particularly those who in the past have been excluded on the basis o f prejudice. For no American should be disqualified for an of fice because o f his race, color, re ligion or family origin. It is time for us to practice what our Con stitution preaches.” S e n a t o r J o h n F.

KENNEDY W O W S 'EM IN LOS ANGELES CENTER: Congressm an Charles C. D iggs o f Detroit, the vice chair man of the Speakers Bureau of the Democratic National Committee, joins Mrs. Marjorie McKenzie Lawson, director o f the Civil Rights Section of the Democratic National Committee, at the $100 plate dinner. Following arc excerpts from the remarks o f Senator John F. Ken nedy in Los Angeles, California, Friday, September 9, 1960: RIGHT: Mrs. Jacqueline Kennedy is shown autographing a dinner pro gram for the daughter o f Frank H. Reeves, National Committeeman from the District and Assistant to Senator John F. Kennedy, who was also on the dais. Mrs. Kennedy wrote for Frank’ daughter’ birthday, s s “It’ great to be eight.” s There is no issue which more clearly illustrates the difference between the Democratic and Re publican Parties than the issue of human rights— civil rights fo r all Americans regardless of color or creed. , For eight long years a Repub lican Party which has been pre sented with opportunity after op portunity to advance the cause of civil rights has failed to take one constructive step toward guaran teeing equal opportunity to all Americans— and the history of the Republican Party in this cen tury is a history o f the same un concern with the enforcement of human rights. This record o f failure and in difference is in sharp contrast to the history of the Democratic Party. For the story of the Dem ocratic Party is the story of hu man rights, from Jefferson’ Stat s ute o f Religious Freedom, to W il son’ New Freedom— from Frank s lin Roosevelt’ New Deal to Har s ry Truman’ Fair Deal. Every s major step forward in the cause of human rights in this century has been the product of the lead ership o f the Democratic Party— and every expectation o f future progress today rests with the Democratic Party. For in this election we must look forward— not to the past, to future achievement— not past ac complishment. We are proud of the fact that the last two Demo cratic Congresses enacted the first civil rights legislation since the period follow ing the Civil War. But we are even prouder of the fact that the Democratic Party— in its Platform— has a program o f future action which will ensure equality o f opportu nity to all Americans. And I am proud of our Plat form. I believe in our Platform. And in 1961 I intend to see that its pledges are carried out. But if we are to carry out these pledges— if we are to en sure equal opportunity to all Americans— then all the vast and important powers o f the Presi dency must be enlisted in the task. For only a President willing to use all the resources of his high office can provide the laedership, the determination and the direction which are essential if we are to eliminate racial and religious discrimination from American society. When our next President takes office in January he must be pre pared to move forward on three broad fronts: as a legislative leader, as a chief executive, and as a moral leader. First, as a legislative leader the President must give us the legal W ilkins, King Attack Bigotry The Reverend Martin Luther King and Roy Wilkins o f the NAACP denounced religious big otry at a press conference in New York September 14 which was called to announce a new regis tration drive for a “million new N egro voters.” The Rev. King stated: “We realize that forces which are anti-Catholic are generally the forces that are anti-Negro. We feel that religious bigotry is as injurious, as immoral and undem ocratic as racial bigotry.” Roy Wilkins said: “Negroes are outraged at the attacks on the Catholic church and on Sen ator Kennedy. Some will consid er it a duty to support Kennedy because o f the nature o f the at tacks. I, myself, am outraged at the low attacks on Kennedy by the same people who have been making low attacks on Negroes. I have seen some o f the outra geous material circulating around the country against Senator Ken nedy. It is from the same places, the same addresses that issue anti-Negro stuff.” DRIVE BEGUN TO REGISTER ONE MILLION NEW NEGRO VOTERS Some twenty national leaders have launched a Non-Partisan Crusade to R egister One Million New N egro Voters. The chairman o f the drive is A. Philip Randolph, veteran labor leader. The Rev. Martin Luther King and Roy W il kins will serve as co-chairmen. The organization has opened head quarters at 8 W est 40th Street in New York City. Signers of the call to organize the registration crusade include four Congressm en: William L. Dawson o f Illinois, Charles C. D iggs o f Michigan, Robert N. C. Nix o f Pennsylvania, and Adam Clayton Powell o f New York. Leaders o f m ajor civic and reli gious organizations joined in the call, including the Rev. J. H. Jackson and Rev. Gardner Taylor of the National Baptist Convention. At the suggestion of Dr. Jackson the bonrd of directors o f the Na tional Baptist Convention unani mously endorsed the idea on the Nixon Double Talk Attacked The Student Non-Violent Co ordinating Committee of Atlanta, Ga., in a telegram to Vice Presi dent Nixon last month took issue with his statement on sit-in dem onstrations at a Greensboro, N. C. press conference. Nixon said that sit-in demon strations should be orderly and “not in violation o f local laws." The students in their telegram to Nixon stated: “An indorsement of both the student action and the local law is meaningless except SIT-IN DEMONSTRATORS Senator Kennedy, for 14 years a fighter for civil rights, was one o f the first national leaders to support peaceful sit-in demonstrations. “It is in the American tradition to stand up for one’ rights — even if s the new way to stand up for one’ rights is to sit down.” s as a tactic to win votes on both sides.” The telegram stated that Nix on’ speech “seems to be aimed s at pleasing the power structure of the South and consequently contradicts your indorsement of the demonstrations.” The students insisted that al though their demonstrations were conducted on a strictly non-vio lent and peaceful basis, the dem onstrations often run counter to local segregation laws. Sunday before the call was issued in New York. The Baptist resolution of Sep tember 11 called on all its churches to designate “Registration Sun day” before the deadline for reg istration in each state. Special sermons urging registration should be given on that day on the right and duty to register and vote. The resolution urged churches to become “working cen ters for registration, with tele phone polls of members, car pools, and other actions undertaken to promote the fullest possible re g istration.” weapons needed to enforce the constitutional rights o f every American. He cannot wait for others to act. He him self must draft the program s— transmit them to the C on gress— and fight for their enactment, taking his case to the people if the Congress is slow in acting. And much legislation is needed. We must continue and strengthen the President’ Civil Rights Com s mission. We must grant the At torney General pow er to enforce all constitutional rights— not just the right to vote. We must wipe out discriminatory poll taxes and literacy tests, and pass effective anti-bombing and anti-lynching legislation. And we must contin ually strengthen the legal fram e work which will allow us to move toward economic, educational and political equality. Such legislation is already be ing prepared. I have asked Sena tor Clark of Pennsylvania and Congressman Cellar o f New York to prepare a bill embodying all the pledges of the Democratic Platform, and that bill will be among the first orders o f busi ness when a new Congress meets in January. Secondly, as Chief Executive, the next President must be pre pared to put an end to racial and religious discrimination in every field o f Federal activity— by issu ing the long-delayed executive or der putting an end to racial dis crimination in federally assisted housing— by revitalizing the Vice President’ Committee on Govern s ment Contracts so that those who receive contracts from the Fed eral Government will not be per mitted to deny a job to a quali fied worker because o f his race or religion— and by making suce that no American is barred from the highest positions in Govern ment because of the color of his skin. Our chief executive m ust also make sure that the laws which Democratic C o n g r e s s e s have passed are enforced with vigor and determination— that the right to vote and other constitutional rights are not denied because of laxity or indifference in the Office o f the Attorney General. Third, as a moral leader, the next President must play his role in interpreting the great moral issues which are involved in our crusade fo r human rights. He m ust exert the great moral and educational force of his office to bring about equal access to pub lic facilities— from churches to lunch counters— and to support the right o f every American to stand up fo r his rights— even if that means sitting down fo r them. For only the President— the representative of all interests and all sections— can create the un derstanding and the tolerance which is necessary if we are to make an orderly transition to a com pletely free society. If the President does not him self wage the struggle for equal rights— if he stands above the battle— then the battle will inevitably be lost. Powell Predicts Kennedy Victory; Announces All-out Support of Ticket Accepting appointment by Sen ator Kennedy as special advisor on urban affairs, Congressman Adam Clayton Powell, Jr., pre dicted that Kennedy will carry New York State and the nation in November. He announced his “all-out” support o f the ticket and said he would stump for it in nineteen states and thirty-three cities. Rep. Powell told a news confer ence on September 19 that Sena tor Kennedy's positions and pledges on civil rights had con vinced him that the nominee would press hard to carry out the full civil rights platform adopted in Los Angeles. Reminding his listeners that Mr. Nixon had “led the fight” against FE PC bills in Congress, Rep. Powell contrasted this with Kennedy’ consistent support for s FEPC, in the House, in the Sen ate, and at the Democratic Con vention this year. In a speech before the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity in Wash ington Congressman Powell at tacked the Republican Adminis tration fo r inaction on civil rights. They have the power “right now,” he declared, “to pre vent any Federal funds from g o ing to any state or political sub division that is in defiance of Federal law.” PRESIDENTIAL LEADERSHIP Senator Kennedy believes that the goals of the Democratic civil rights plank can only be achieved by strong moral leadership from the White House. “That leadership must be exercised until every American, of every color and faith, has achieved equal access to the voting booth, to the schoolroom, to jobs, to housing and to lunch counters.” � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
