the denial oi rights and opoortunities to millions of America-ms of negro descent is not only unjust and a menace to our free in- stitution but also is a direct hindrance to world peace and the realization of human brotherhood. 92 At this time its methods of accomplishing its purposes were stated as:: X

'* i l l. A lecture bureau. 2. A bureau of legal assistance. . 3. 1 bureau of infontation. b. A bureau of publicity and research.

It has no other belief I than the best way to uplift the colored man is the best way to '§ aid the white man to peace and social content; it has no other desire than exact justice, and no other motive than humanity."

Today the KAACP states that full citizenship rights for the negro is the rock upon Whid1 it is established.

3. It was the first national organization to raise the question _ of the right of Negroes to sit on juries in the Arkansas sharecroppsn case, 1919-1923. ' . lg L. With a group of other national organizations, the NAACP is a member of the joint nationalt§cottsboro Defense Committee which is . _ carrying on the iight to free the worlds most famous defendants. ii . '! 5. It launched and has continued the fight to abolish the system _ R of lily-white Democratic primaries in the South. The association é 5, believes that iree and independent use of the ballot is the right ; g I . of every citizen in America. f r 6. In 1932 it twice investigated slave labor conditions on the j L ¥*j'" Q Ilississippi levees and won increases of $100,000 weekly for 25,000 1 Negro workers, shorter hours and better conditions. Similar efforts} were made in connection with other great public worhs such as Boulder Dan and TVA. TVA was investigated in 1933 and the evidence of dis- cri;ination against Negroes was presented to the joint coznittee of the U. S. Congress investigating TVA.

5 i 7. It has everywhere fought school segregatio and discrimination in the allotment of educational monies to Negro schools. -Lawyers a for the association secured a ruling by the Haryland court of Appeals ii in January, l936, which opened the doors of the University of nary- 1 land law school to Negro students. This fight is being continued 4 in Maryland where the.third Negro was admitted in 1939. Similar cases are to be filed in Tennessee and Missouri. '

[Q -5-|-»- The following information J15 obtained in » 1 ourth National Convention" O.411 official report of Workers fCommunist! Party of America held it Chicago, Illinois on L"@ust 2L to 33, 1926: es, In the NAACP, the negro bourgeoisie together with the middle class white -Jar-~_...i reformists and under the partial leadership of the bourgeoisie such as represented by Senator BURTON, Chairman last Republican National Convention! find the chief Radium for its refirmist operations. Yet it is a parade and a reflection of the now passiag perlod of the patronizing of the negro cause by the capitalist class, that this organizatioi at its last I ' 1 convention, appeared in the role of championing, though in a timid and . i "respectable" way, negro LDFkET'S right to admittance in the trade unions. 4 1 In this organization, under present circumstances, it is permissable and < necessary for selected Communists not Party membership as a whole! to enter its conventions and to make proposals calculated to enlighten the negro ink masses under its influence as to the nature and necessity of the class strupe . ihe identity of their exploiters and their leaders in the same persons and the treacherous nature of the reformist measures proposed.

However, it is only when the Communist work is so broadened and extended in the field of negro movements as to make our Party stand out as the only real champion of the negro against lynching, all discriminating and all oppression and exploitation that we can successfully cmbat the influence /t of such oourgeoisnmvements. ask The aim of our Party and our work among the negro masses is to create a powerful proletarian movement which will fight and lead the struggle of the negro race against exploitation and oppession in every form and which will be a militant part of the revolutionary movement of the whole American working class, to Strengthen the American revolutionary movement by bringing itto the ll,500,00 negro workers and farmers in the United States, to broaden the struggles of the American negro workers and farmers, connect them with the struggles of the national minorities and colonial peoples of the world and thereby further the cause of the world revolution and the dictatorship of the proletariate. adopted unanimously!."

'I'he Chicago Branch of the the NAACP held its meeting at the Good Shepherd Congrecitional Chars.-h, 57311 ,Pra.Lrie avenue. The chief ccnplaint seems to be that the Ar-my and Navy are not permitting negroes to obtain positions of importance; negroes are e.»:c'l11ded from jobs in certain plants holding defense contracts. Itwas stated that the trouble is due to the ----I-n Unions refusal to permit neg:-oes to membership.

The article revealed that there were serious weaknesses which evolved from the hhth Convention deliberations.

The address was characterized throughout by H fawning attitude which called for complete confidence in and support for the Eisenhower Administration, an administrr;tion whose policies are generating further anti Negro measures in the country. _-,¢ WHITE stated that sfsanaowaa is an unwilling prisoner of his own cabinet, his party and Congress, and, if the President has foiled to do more on the Negro question, ,l. it is because he "has been so absorbed with war and . foreign problems." .7? I In addition to surrendering to the Eisenhower LL Administration on the Negro question, WALTER NHITE'S address included an orgy of Red-baiting and anti-Gommunist slender that is rare evcn for these times. According to the author, WHITE falsely proclaimed that war and Communism arc the two factors which plague the modern world. WHITL stated, "we don't want the Communists running our affairs." n In addition, the article depicted that at no time did the convention approve of Mr. WHITE'S pro- Eiscnhower speech, and it was the opinion of many observers that a majority of the delegtcs were definitely opposed to the Eisenhower Administration.
