Memphis World Memphis World Publishing Co. 1965-01-30 J. A. Beauchamp AFL-CIO Speeds Job Bias Fight Under "Rights" Donald Slainman, director of the labor federation's Department of Civil Rights, said the organization the visible part of the iceberg of discriminatory practices." Acting on complaints he added on a network radio interview, represents only a small fraction of the AFL-CIO's anti-discrimination program is based on the conviction. Slaiman asserted that the prothat civil right must be assured "not only because it is the law but because it is good union policy." He reported that more than 60 international unions have assigned staff members to work with his department on community programs and to press non-discrimination programs within the union and at the collective bargaining table. The department estimates that formal complaints represent only bout one in 50 cases of race discrimination, Slaiman said in response to questions put to him on "Labor News Conference" the AFLCIO's public affairs radio program. The AFL-CIO is developing a program aimed at erasing misconceptions about the Civil Rights Act and is stimulating cooperation by labor, religious, civil rights and business groups in communities throughout the nation, he said. Labor leaders will take part later this month in a national conference called by the U. S. Civil Rights Commission on the new fair employment section of the law which will go into effect July 1. One of the big Jobs, Slaiman pointed out, is to explain what the new law does not do, as well as what it does. He said that brochures falsely charging that seniority would be undermined, hiring quotas would be established and that white workers would lose their jobs to Negroes were sent to more than 30,000 local unions before the November election. Now, he said, "much of this fear is dissipating" as the facts catch up with "the misstatements."

Powell Unmoved By Court Action On Libel Suit Ben Adam Clayton Powell - Harlem's most influential citizen — apparently is unmoved by the U. S Supreme Court's refusal last Monday to hear his anneal in a $48,500 defamation of character judgement. When contacted for his reaction last Friday, Mr. Powell shrugged his shoulders and said: "You can't pay when you don't have the money can you"? The Harlem Democrat came out second it in a libel suit brought by Mrs. Esther James, a domestic She sued the Congressman for calling her a 'bag woman" for crooked police on a teleivion pogram. A New York court first awarded Mrs. James $211,500 in damages but a higher state tribunal trimmed that amount to $46,500. But, if and when Mr. Powell pays up, he'll need several thousand dollars additionally to meet internet charges.

HONOR HOWARD U HEAD James M. Nabrit, Jr., president of Howard University here, was presented last week with the annual Argo Lodge B'nai B'rith Americanism Citation for his "contribution to education, leadership, devotion to the community, and example in fostering brotherhood of all peoples." LOUISIANAN MUST BE OLDEST LIVING MASON James Cox, who lives in this town just across the river from Baton Rouge, held a belated birthday celebration here last week. Cox is 100 years of age, and he is sure of that because the Social Security agency went to great lengths to establish his exact date of birth. This "above and beyond the call" move was the agency's way of determining whether Cox was eligible for benefits. He was, and in recognition of that fact, Victor Christian, director of the Social Security, sent him a birthday card. Cox born on Christmas day in 1864, in Richmond, Va., but moved to Louisiana at an early age. He has lived most of his life in Port Allen as a janitor. He quit his job when he was 85 years old because he 'wanted to enjoy life while he still had his health and strength. His vision is still good. He reads newspapers and watches television regularly. He drinks three cans of beer a day and never misses his monthly Prince Hall Masonic lodge meeting. He, has been married twice, but outlived both wives. He does not think he will marry again. "The women want to wear file pants" he says, not only in words but literally." He likes to see women in dresses. He had one daughter, but she too has passed. Now he is all alone But then he looks forward to the second 100 years and he won't say what will happen. Johnson Submits Reduced Budget President Johnson brought in Monday a budget barely under the magic $100 billion mark, It combined slight cut in defense spending with more expenditures for the health, education and welfare of the nation's citizens.. The total was $99.7 billion. And Johnson indicated it may be the last budget to stay under $100 billion. The president estimated receipts from the taxpaying public at $94.4 billion, which would mean a deficit of $5.3 billion. This compares with last year's budget figure of $97.5 billion with a deficit of $6.3 billion. "It is a budget of both opportunity and sacrifice," he added. "It begins to graps the opportunities of the Great Society. It is restrained by the sacrifices we must continue to make in order to keep our defenses strong and flexible." He asked $49 billion for Defense Department activities and military assistance. Total defense spending — including that for atomic ener gy, defense - related activities and trust funds — would amount to $52.5 billion. This is $300 million below the spending rate of this fiscal year and $2 billion below that of last year. While cutting defense expenditures slightly, Johnson called for an increase of $3.6 billion - near 50 per cent — in spending for health, manpower, education, housing, and the war on poverty A total of $2.7 billion was earmarked for schools, compared with $1.5 billion this year and a mere $350 million 10 years ago. To keep the economy running at its same high level when the momentum generated by last year's income and corporate tax cuts slowdown, he proposed a $1.7 billion cut in excise taxes. The list to be sent up later, may include the 10 per cent taxes on jewelry, luggage cosmetics and handbags. The President also asked for a 7 per cent increase in Social Security benefits, which would pump more money into the economy. Johnson's $3:1.7 billion figure west for the familiar administrative budget. But he also made use of the cash budget, which includes the billions of dollars that annually follow through such government trust funds as social security and highways. These funds are excluded from the administrative budget because they do not require any annual action by Congress.

Muhammad and a student at Al Azhar university in Cairo, has officially quite the "Black" Muslims organization led by his father. Akbar, 25, announced the action during an interview last week in which he also said he could cooperate in many ways" with such civil rights groups as the NAACP, CORE and the Southern Chriitian Leadership Conference led by Dr. Martin Luther King.

In detailing his reasons for quitting. Akbar said he no longer was able to agree with his father's "concocted religious teachings, Which are far from and in most cases diametrically opposed to Islam, and secondarily because of his politically sterile philosophy of the Afro-American.

There had been previous rumors that Akbar would quit his father's organization, but last week's announcement makes it official. Miami Univ. Band Gats First Negro William Long.

Combined with 993 permanent unts already constructed, this will give low - income families in the area nearly 1500 units to occupy. The SFHA also promised eventual removal of some 2,000 dilapidated temporary units built during World War II. Those forced to vacate these units, and unable to gain space in the new permanent units, will be absorbed by other public housing projects of their choice, said John Beard, SFHA executive director. The announcement of the new units placated the fears of the Redevelopment Agency, which envisioned the construction of high-rise medium priced apartments in the area — forcing the needy low -income families out.

ELEANOR One of the most significant points brought out was the drivers strong feeling that there ought to be more and better law enforcement. Aware of the moderating effect that police cars have — a point well established by highway tests — one driver pleaded: "Let the police be seen!" The very next time that you are annoyed at being stuck behind a big truck, remember that its driver is just as concerned as you are. He sees you back there a wishing about his tail gait. And he fervently hopes you will stay out of his way while he is doing his best to keep out of yours. Always fasten your seat belt snugly. Before driving a strange car, reseat the seat and mirror, check the feel of the brakes and steering wheel. Always look for an out a place to steer toward if you set in a jam. Dim the panel lights, and drive at least ten mph slower at night. Keep the car moving at a reason able speed or get it off the road — completely and then some. Anticipate stops and slow downs: Don't wait until you are out of adequate space. In slowing, pump your brakes to flash your tail lights. When passing, wait before cutting back until you can see the passed car in your mirror. On multi-lane roads, remember that the right-hand lane is likely to be more slippery than the passing lane, especially when wet, because of wear and oil spatter. If your wind-shield is dirty, so are your headlights be sure that the attendant cleans them when you stop for gas. You pass the peak of your driving efficiency between your faith and the sixth hour at the wheel; near the end of your driving day, the pros always slow-down and take it easy. Never hesitate to yield the right of way, especially if the other driver is at fault. The best place for a faulty driver is out of your way.

As I left the house for work one icy winter morning, I slipped and broke my leg in two places. An ambulance was summoned and a crowd gathered.

Before driving a strange car, reseat the seat and mirror, check the feel of the brakes and steering wheel. Always look for an out a place to steer toward if you set in a jam. Dim the panel lights, and drive at least ten mph slower at night. Keep the car moving at a reason able speed or get it off the road — completely and then some. Anticipate stops and slow downs: Don't wait until you are out of adequate space. In slowing, pump your brakes to flash your tail lights.

As I was being lifted onto the stretcher, I heard my elderly next door neighbor exclaim, "I wondered why Georgia was lying out there beside the road - it wasn't a bit like her!" Small son on daddy's lap: "I'm still confused — was I born in a nest or a hive?" Wife to departing mate: "Keep your feet dry, come straight home from work, and don't fold, spindle or mutilate your paycheck. Wife to lounging husband: "Somehow, I find it a little difficult to envision you as the end product of millions of years of evolution."
