Associated with Students for a Democrattc Society THE MISSISSIPPI FREEDOM DEMOCRATIC PARTY: BACKGROUND AND RECENT DEVELOPMENTS by STEVE llJAX The Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party was founded April 26, 1964 in order to create an opportunity for meaningful political expres­ sion for the 438,000 adult Negro Mississippians who traditionally have been denied this right. In addition to being a political instrument, the FDP provides a focus for the coordination of civil rights activity in the state and around the country. Although its memters do not necessarily think in these -terms, the MFDP is the organization above all others whose work is most directly forcing a realignment within the Democratic Party. All individuals and organizations who understand that ' when the Negro is not free, then all are in chains; who realize that the present system of discrimi­ nation precludes the abolition of poverty, and who have an interest in the destruction of the Dixiecrat-Republican alliance and the purging of the racists from the Democratic Party are potential allies of the MFDP. BACKGROUND INFORMATION The Mississippi Democratic Party runs the state of MisSissippi .with an iron hand. It controls the legislative, executive and judicial be nches of the state government. Prior to the November, 1964 elec­ tion all 49 state 3enators and all but one of the 122 Representa­ tives were Democrats. Mississippi sent four Democrats and one Goldwater Republican to Congress last November.

I'm with Josh Eilberg, and the first thing we need to get on tape is your consent to do this interview. It's supposed to be on tape. JOSHUA EILBERG: You have my consent. INT: The other matter of business, I guess we should start with your birth date. EILBERG: 2/12/21. INT: Okay. And you grew up where? EILBERG: Basically in North Philadelphia around Seventh and Parrish Streets. INT: And were your parents immigrants? EILBERG: My parents were both born in the United States. My mother was born in 1896. My father was born in 1900. INT: They belonged to a Conservative synagogue, is that right? EILBERG: Yes, they did. And my mother was the more active one in that regard. INT: What was that called? EILBERG: Sons of Halberstam. INT: Now was that neighborhood where you grew up almost exclusively a Jewish one? EILBERG: It was largely Jewish. This represented an advance for some people. Much of the Jewish community that I came from resided in South Philadelphia, and as the Jewish neighborhood expanded, this was one area to which the Jewish community moved, that is, North Philadelphia between Girard Avenue and Spring Garden Street. INT: Was there any particular reason why there were Jews in that area? Was there any work that attracted them to that area? EILBERG: I suppose a dominant factor in that community was there was a very popular shopping area in that community on Marshall Street between Poplar and Girard which was very well known to the Jewish community.

  • Third District Congressmen with Members of the Board of Directors
    SUMMARY OF REMARKS before the Meeting of Third District Congressmen with Members of the Board of Directors and Senior Officers of the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia at the Capitol Wednesday, June 29» 1966 Dr. Willis J. Winn, Dean of the Wharton School of Finance and Commerce of the University of Pennsylvania, and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia, opened the meet­ ing by stating its purpose as that of providing a means for the members of the Board of the Philadelphia Bank to put before Third District Congressmen some problems with vhich they had been concerned. He stated that the Board took quite seriously its responsibilities for helping to maintain a sound banking system and the integrity of the dollar and that in this task they felt it essential to communicate from time to time with Congressional lawmakers who had created the Federal Reserve System and exercised surveillance over it. Dean Winn expressed his confidence in the Federal Reserve System but observed that neither he nor the other directors had a vested interest in it; however, unless and until a differ­ ent system for providing an adequate monetary structure were created, he felt it was essential that the present one not be permitted to break down at any point by default. Dean Winn introduced the other directors present: Bayard L. England, Deputy Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chairman of the Board of the Atlantic City Electric Company, Atlantic City, New Jersey? Ralph K.

  • Pennsylvania's Fair Employment Practices Act of 1955
    A Novel Public Policy: Pennsylvania's Fair Employment Practices Act of 1955 Eric Ledell Smith & Kenneth C. Wolensky Pennsylvania Htaoricaland Museum Commission Cwy ofhamuye Seat Aahm Governor George M. Leader D-Pa.) (seated in center) signing into law the FEPCact in 1955. Governor Leadr, #546, Governor's Officc, RG72, Rccords of the Dept. of Highways. When a smiling Governor George M. Leader signed the Pennsylva- nia Fair Employment Act of 1955 (P.L. 744), it was a triumphant moment for civil and workers rights in the Keystone State. The Fair Employment Practices Commission [FEPCI, created by the Act, was charged with investigating allegations of racially based employment dis- crimination and arbitrating related disputes between workers and employers. In 1961, with additional responsibility for enforcing state laws regarding equal opportunity in housing and education, FEPC was transformed into the Pennsylvania Human Relations Commission. The 490 Pennsylvania History origins of this novel public policy approach to policing employment dis- crimination is rooted in New Deal-era statutory proposals introduced to the General Assembly by black legislators such as Homer Brown of Western Pennsylvania. Indeed, twenty years of proposed legislation and amendments, social science surveys, state government reports, intensive lobbying efforts, and political infighting preceded Governor Leader's signature on the concluding page of P.L. 744 of 1955. Though several scholars have examined the legislative and policy debate surrounding employment discrimination, no analysis of the remarkable history of Pennsylvania's FEPC has been forthcoming.
