May 14, 1962 Dear Friends,

Enclosed you will find the report of the Spring Conference of SNCC, held a few weeks ago~ together with a cop,y of the revised constitution and the address list of participants.

The Conference was an important step forward in the development of SNCC . We must now move forward to implement the decisions· made there. Of first importance is a meeting of the Coordinating Committee, as provided for in the new constitution. We have decided to hold the first · meeting of the Coordinating Committee ~ ~ on June !. !~ g_, beginning on the evening of June 1st.

According to the new constitution., the Coordinating Committee shall con­ sist of a representative from each local protest group that wishes to affiliate with SNCC, together with advisors and observers from the active civil :bights ~d -civil liberties groups. This is the Committee which shall set general policy and program for SNCC and which determines the EKecutive Committee which will exercise direction over the activity of the staff. ~ . first meeting ~ ~ ~ extremely important ~ : every active ~ group should ~ represented. A local group will be expected to cover the . costs of its representative; we will try to provide free or low cost housing.

The conference also decided that each local protest group should have a News Coordinator who will be responsible for sending and receiving news of the activity of the protest movement. Enclosed is a "News Report Form 11 which you or your News Coordinator may wish .to use to keep us informed of news for inclusion in ~ Student ~ and for requests for help. As you send in a report we will send you more forms; you may wish to mimeograph it and distribut.e it locally. We can only be of service to you if we know what is happening.

It was good to meet you at the conference., and we look forward to hearing from each of you and meeting you again.

l:00-2:00 Lunch -- Cafeteria, Interdenominational Theological Center The SNCC Spring Conference, 1962 An Interpretation

The annual conference of SNCC was held this year on April 27-29 at the Interdenominational Theological Center in Atlanta. This will be an attempt to report some of the meaning and significance of the conference. Its real significance cannot be measured: it lies in the lives and actions of the participants. To the extent that the conference has prepared and armed them in their struggle against discrimination and renewed their confidence in the strength of a student movement 1 it will have been significant. I. The Conference itself.

Let us begin with a summary of the statistics and what actually happened. 'Ihe first fact of importance is that it was a well-attended~ fairly well disciplined conference. As recently as a month or two ago we were being told by some of

our friends that the conference would never be held1 and that its failure would mark the end of the 11 sit-in movement" as an organized~ cohesive protest. The results stand in direct contradiction: some 260 persons came to the meet­ ing, from all over the South and from as far away as New York in one direction and California in the other. There were people from 22 different states, and from 44 different campuses. The bulk of these were students--over 180 of them. And, significantly, a much larger·percentage than ever before were white southern

students--possibly as higp as 30% 1 though no record was kept. It may be that the movement is beginning to reach our white brethren in the South.

Students came from most of the major protest areas where things have been happening. There· were large delegations from Talladega, Albany., Jackson, Nash­ ville, Knoxville, New OrJ~ans, washington; there were representatives from such distant groups as Baltimore and Maryland's eastern shore in one direction and Austin, Texas, in the other. And of course the local Atlanta student group was present in force.

The Conference was aimed at being both educational and organizationa~~ and the program was set up to reach both goals. On the educational side, addresses were given by Dr. Robert Johnsen and Charles McDew, SNCC Chairman, on Friday night; on Satu:rd.ay, through Attorney Len Holt's group 11workshop11 on legal rights, we learned oomething of our legal resources and possibilities; and on Suu:day Miss pointed to some of the significance of the weekend. lvffi.ch of Saturday was spent in workshops, ranging from sessions on in philos­ ophy and practice through now to organize conmunity movements to voter regis­ tration and summer projects.

The organizational side of the conference was spent with an examination of what SNCC has been doing since the last conference and with revision of a constitution for SNCC. How "successful" this was only time will tell; the conference did come to agreement on a structure which seems to be satisfactory to all and includes a realistic and workable organization.

Although much of the statistical report can be positively stated~ one negative toint must be made: the financial result. To have had the conference cost SNCC about $3,100--or the equivalent of subsistence for a field secretary for about J8 months. And although money was given specifically for the conference-and some money was received from participants, even so the net loss was about $1,300, or Conference report

about eight months subsistence. Unless money is found to replace this we may have to consider· cutting down on our present staff. 1! you~ contribute 12_ offset~~~ please £.2_ ~ toda¥•

II.The Significance of the Conference.

It is relatively easy to report the 11 facts 11 of the conference; it is more difficult to speak of its significance. What the conference meant to each of us is an individual matter. Fran the p9int of view of SNCC, though, several things may be singled out. One major accomplishment of the conference was to acquaint students from var­ ious areas with the developments which have taken place in SNCC since the last ccnference in October, 1960. General approval of the direction taken seemed to be evident. For many students, SNCC became more than just a name and an office, or a staff perscn who had happened .to be placed in their comnunity; it became a comprehensive approach to the problem of segregation and discri~ ination, working in many places in many different ways. The personal relation­ ships establi~hed at the conference will carry over the months until we are able to gather again as a total student movement. Another result of major significance was the reorganization of SNCC. From a committee composed of representatives from each state~ SNCC was broadened to include representation from each local protest group, together with an executive and staff structure which will facilitate fast and responsible decision-making. The reorganization will both relate it more closely to local student groups and strengthen its ongoing program. But perhaps the most important significance of the conference was that students came, and learned, and went back armed with new knowledge and new determination, Determination without knowledge is only partial; knowledge without determina­ tion is paralyzed. The two met at the conference--insufficiently, to be sure-­ but a start was given toward a new drive and a naw determination to rid our nation of the evils which deny its basic purpose and meaning. • • Gonference Participants
