The Rev.
Joseph B. Felker, Sr., 73-year-old
Baptist minister-missionary, is a
short, somewhat stocky man who
speaks with measured deliberateness 
and firm conviction.
He is firm in the conviction that
the black man can and should control 
his own destiny by fashioning
a life enabling him to enjoy success 
and freedom with dignity,
without the stigma of racial discrimination 
—even if he must seek
these goals abroad.
The dark brown-skinned minister 
points proudly to himself as
an example, A former American
born in Atlanta in 1892, Rev. Felker 
is now a naturalized Liberian
Citizen who has succeeded as a missionary, 
educator and businessman
in that country.
A 20th century pilgrim, he migrated 
to Liberia in 1957, and within 
60 days was granted full citizenship 
by the authority of President
William V. S. Tubman — whose
mother was also born in Atlanta.
(Liberia was founded by newly
freed American slaves in 1857).
Rev. Felker says such citizenship
is available to American Negroes
who can make valuable contributions 
and are willing to work to
hem advance the economy of Liberia. 

In fact, Rev. Felker is fully convinced 
that the American Negro
has the know-how to aid Liberia's
progress. He favors a migration of
Negroes to Liberia where they can
build full unrestricted lives for
themselves and for that nation —
as he has done.
The general superintendent of the
Brewerville Industrial Mission school
near Monrovia, Liberia's capital
city. Rev. Felker is now in America 
to attend the. Elks national convention 
in Philadelphia in August,
and the National Baptist Conven
tion, 
USA. Inc., meeting in Jacksonville, 
Fla., in September.
In Chicago, lie is the guest of his
son, the Rev. Joseph B. Felker, Jr.,
and members of Mt. Carmel Baptist 
church (2978 Wabash). The
senior Rev. Felker organized the
original Mt. Carmel churn (22 E.
31st St.) on Oct. 10, 1915, and
pastored it until 1957 when he resigned 
to go to Liberia.
The Junior Rev. Felker, inheriting 
much of his father organizational 
and administrative abilities,
stepped in and continued to build
and complete the church at a cost
of $200,000. The son also paid off
some $200,000 in church obligations
to his father, and took over a S10 000 
private business which the elder
Felker had established.
The senior Rev. Felker used the
money from both the church and
the business to finance his missionary 
and educational work in
Liberia.
Rev. Felker's story is an interesting 
one — a success story which
began as a result of a racial handicap 
in Atlanta.
What actually started him in
search of a new life of contentment, 
dignity and freedom from
domination, was a slurring racial
remark by a white boy in that
Deep South city many years ago.
"The boy told me." Rev. Felker
recalled, "that America is a white
man's country and that Negroes
had no rights and should be content 
with whatever the white man
wants to give him."
The youthful Felker rejected the
boy's prejudiced thinking but the
remark remained fixed in his mind.
He was determined to prove that
the world belongs as much to the
black man as to his white brothers. 

He began looking around for
means to prove his point, and
finally his steps were directed to

the ministry and ultimately to Liberia. 
In the eight yean he has
lived in the West African country,
he has seen his dream become a
reality. His only regret has been
that he did not migrate there 20
years earlier.
At present, Rev, Felker has another 
civic ambition. He wants to
establish a community of former
American Negro citizens in Liberia. 
He is offering the facilities of
his own spacious 27-room house as
temporary quarters, as a means of
saving prospective residents the
high cost of hotel expenses.
The spry-looking minister was
given a warm and hearty welcome
by members of Mt. Carmel church,
including many who were among
the original congregation which
gave birth to the church 20 years
ago.
"They were extremely happy to
see me." he commented. "These
people have remained loyal w the
church."
But whether the topic is religion,
education or industry, Rev. Felker 
always manages to return to
his favorite theme: the ability of
the Negro to build a greater future
for himself — in Liberia.

Negro Anti-Poverty
Chief Resigns Post
The
resignation over the reported rift
between Melvin J. Humphrey, Negro 
executive director ot the city's
anti - poverty program and Morton 
Macht, chairman, commission
overseeing the program, was disclosed 
last week:
Dr. Humphrey, the resignee, refused 
comment, but staff members
confirmed reports of dissention.
According to Macht, "Our differences 
are those associated with any
day - to day operations connected
with running a commission.
The resignation, however, brought

new attention to what critics call
the most serious flaw of the federal
anti - poverty effort — local disagreement 
over methods of administering 
the program.
Dr. Humphrey, 44, had held the
$22,500 executive position since
April. Ke was said to have been
the highest paid Negro government
official in the state's history.
On leave of absence as economics 
professor at Morgan State college, 
Dr. Humphrey expressed gratitude 
to the city for "the privilege
of serving" as executive director of
the Community Action agency.
"Since the direction of the Baltimore 
plan is now fully visible, I
respectfully request to be relieved
of my duties," he informed Mayor
Theodore R. McKeldin.
According to those close to the
situation, Dr. Humphrey had
sought to move with dispatch to
implement the city's campaign
against poverty. Macht, apparently
with the support of a majority of
the 14- man commission, favored a
slower pace.
The commission oversees the $4,372,000 
per year program and approves 
actions undertaken by CAA
The Anti - Poverty Action Committee, 
an organization of small civi
rights groups, had asked the mayor
"to discourage Dr. Humphrey from
leaving office."
The group questioned the ability
of the 14 - man commission, while
praising Dr.. Humphrey's qualifications.

A 52-year-old white ex-convict admitted
July 2 that he made a threatening telephone call to the Denver
Hilton Hotel suite of Roy Wilkins, NAACP executive director.
Mrs. Wilkins, who answered the

Chicago Mayor
Is Accused Of
Aping Dixicrats
Chicago public 
schools are being operated in
violation of the Civil Rights Act
and federal funds should be cut
off from them, an integration
group charged July 5.
A formal complaint that could
lead to withdrawal of the funds,
totaling an estimated $30 million
a year, has been filed with Francis
Keppel, U. S. commissioner of education, 
and a copy will be sent
Harlem Congressman Adam Clayton 
Powell.
Albert A. Raby, convenor of the
Coordinating Council of Community 
Organizations CCCO, said the
loss of federal funds could cause
"shortterm harm."
But Raby said that CCCO decided 
to file the complaint with
Keppel because an "over - all
good" would accrue to Chicago
children if the Board of Education 
is ordered to comply with the
1964 Civil Rights Act.
The CCCO has been spearheading 
the month - loge series of city
hall marches directed at Mayor
Richard J. Daley. The CCCO wants
Daley to Use his influence to fire
School Supt. Benjamin C. Willis,
accused of holding down school integration 
proposals. Police have
made 645 arrests in the antiWilllsdemonstrations, 
most of them
in traffic - blocking lie - downs at
busy Loop intersections.
Raby's complaint to Kppel quoted 
Title VI, Section 60, of the act:
"No person in the United States
shall, on the grounds of race, color.
national origin, be excluded from
participation in, be deprived of the
benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination 
under any program or
activity receiving federal financial
assistance."
Raby charged that more than
90 per cent of Chicago's Negro
Children attend segregated schools
because the board has "conspired"
with real estate interests in order
to ""maintain a policy of Neuro
containment."
Raby told a news conference the
complaint to Keppel is part of the
campaign to remove Willis, He
said street demonstrations against
Willis and Daley would continue
regardless of what happens to the
complaint.
A CCCO aide said the federal
funds involved total about $30 million 
in annual contributions to
Chicago public schools for participating 
in various federally spon
sored 
projects.
A similar complaint chapter of
the Congress of Racial Equality
CORE, and one of Raby's aides
said like action was contemplated
by groups in San Francisco.

Sunday School Lesson





Further pursuing our examination
of our growth as Christians, we
ponder the questions: Why does
growth often require change? And
what kinds of changes are required? 

The fundamental basis of our lesson 
for today is the fact that
Christian growth has its roots in a
renewing thought Jesus Christ, our
Lord. A baby cannot commence to
grow until such time as it is born
— A living, breathing thing, in dependent 
of its mother's womb. This
is true, also, of the soul.
And just as a child goes through
all the painful stages of growing up
into a mature person, with all the
Joy, the heartbreak, the sense of
content of childhood and adolescence, 
so does the soul of man
come to the ultimate — maturity in
Christ.
Paul instituted many churches in
his time; his mission in life was to
spread the Rood work of Christianity 
among the peoples, This he did
wholeheartedly, albeit with much
heartbreak and disappointment and
setbacks. So it is with us, as individual 
Christians, struggling towards 
a Christ-like concept of mankind. 

If we look back on Paul's life we
can see the great changes he
wrought within himself. He had, indeed, 
a rich heritage. He was born
into the Jewish faith — a trueblooded 
member of his race. He
could trace his ancestry back to
Benjamin, who fathered a small but
proud tribe from whose ranks had
been chosen Israel's first king —
Paul. He observed the law, strictly,
as did the most conscientious members 
of his race. All this Paul
cherished until he found something 
better — Jesus Christ.
Paul's concept of values Changed
completely when he accepted Christ
into his life, He reduced his assets
— to put it in present-day language 
— to a fundamental and
meaningful basis — Christ Jesus
And although the, long years in
Christ's service were to bring much
suffering to Paul, he went to his
death a happy man, his innermost
convictions unshaken.
For Christ provides a reserve of
strength for the soul of man. He is
the font of immeasurable riches,
the possession of which appeals to
the best in the nature of mankind.
The man who has it "easy" in life
cannot begin to appreciate his good
fortune. It is the poor man, who
has reached a sense of security for
himself and for his loved ones
through unmitigated struggle who
can truly appreciate his good fortune, 
for he is aware of the sweetness 
of the fruits of his labor because 
it was so hard-won.
So is it with Christian stewardship. 
To be a Christian by birthright 
is not necessarily a credit to
us as individuals. It is our stewardship 
of that birthright that counts.
It may require self-discipline and
immeasurable courage to stand up
for what we know is right, even
though it may go against popular
opinion, but when we exercise that
discipline, that courage, we feel the
nearness of God, and that sustains 
us against all ills.
Paul has said that we cannot escape 
the tensions of life; rather,
as Christians, our faith tends to
define them. But we must never
lose sight of the fact that it is
through them that we grow as
Christians by the power of Christ.
It worked for Paul — why not for
us?

Working Poor Need Improved
Minimum Wage In D. C., Says
Assistant Secretary Peterson
"The
people to be directly helped by
19 are the working poor' — those
who work at the most arduous and
menial tasks", Assistant Secretary
of Labor Esther Peterson said in
Senate Committee testimony supporting 
an improved minimum
wage law for Washington, D. C.
"The working poor are the dishwashers, 
the busboys, the short
order cooks. They carry our heavy
parcels, wash our cars, clean our
homes, our apartments and our office 
buildings. They haul our furniture, 
wash our clothes add care for
our sick. They ate hardworking
people, who generally are not members 
of unions, and who are unable
to bargain for a decent wage. The
least we can do is provide them
some guaranty of a minimum wage
by law, And the wage we are proposing, 
in our time, is a modest
wage, a dollar and a quarter an
hour.
"There are far too many workers
in the District of Columbia who receive 
wages completely inadequate
for a decent standard of living.
Work recompensed by subminimum
wages is work which the poor, in
effect, are forced to give to society,
So, S. 19 to raise wage levels in the
District, should have an appeal to
all of us who are concerned with
the fulfillment of the promises of
our democracy.
"President Johnson, in foreseeing
our advance to the Great Society,
notes the special role of the District 
of Columbia. 'What we do in
our Capital City," he has said to
Congress, 'will stand as a measure
of our overall progress to that
end.' Therefore, in our present war
on poverty, effective battle must
be waited - right here - in our
Nation's Capital.
"S, 19 would also, for the first
minimum wage of $1,25 in the District 
and would require the payment 
of time and one-half the
regular rate of pay for hours of
work in excess of forty in a workweek. 
In addition, it provides for
wage boards, as does the present
D. C. Law.
"Under this bill, existing wage
orders, covering women and minors
in occupations subject to the present 
law, would continue in effect
but with an increased minimum
and, as in the case of new wage
orders, they would be subject to
future revisions.
19 would, also, for the first
time, extend to male workers in
the District minimum wage protection 
long afforded to many female
Workers and to minors, Coverage
would rise from 87,000 to 300,000."

25 African
Students Visit
NAACP Office
Twenty-five
students from eight newly independent 
African countries visited, the
National Office ot the NAACP on
June 23, The group, members of the
Phelps-Stokes Fund summer project,
visited the Association to learn
about its history, present work, and
future plans.
James W. Ivy, editor of The
Crisis, told of the organization of
the NAACP in 1909 and how it has
grown to its present stature. He
outlined the work and achievements
of the Association in the four broad
areas of court action, legislation,
and its educational and direct action 
programs, Details about the
structure of the organization and
its membership were also given,
along with specific references to
some of the Association's major
achievements.
The staff talk was followed by a
forty-five minute question period
in which the students asked about
the relations of the NAACP with
other civil rights organizations, the
attitude of American Negroes toward 
Africans, class divisions within 
the Negro group and the Negroe's
role in American politics.
Roy Wilkins; executive director,
greeted the group and brought a
message Just before the meeting adjourned.
