Government Has Power Over Draft Card Burners The (Supreme Court voted 7-1 Monday that the government has the constitutional power to punish draft card burners under a 1965 law enacted after a series of student Vietnam War protests. The decision overturned a ruling by a U. S. Circuit Court of Appeals that the legislation was unconstitional, because it in frenged on free speech. The test case involved David P. O'Brien, a 20 year old Boston University sophomore from Framingham, Mass., who burned his draft court on the steps of a Boston court house during an anti-war demonstration, March 31, 1966. The Supreme Court decision by Chief Justice Earn Warren reinstated O'Brien's conviction in a strict federal youth Correction Act, O'Brien is subject to an indeterminate sentence of six years under the custody of the Justice Department. Justice William o. Dauglas dissented, vigorously, declaring the time has come for the court to decide whether the entire Vietnam draft operation is unconstitutional without a formal congressional declaration of war. After ruling against O'Brien, the Court-again with Douglas obpecting upheld a series of puntitive Selective Service actions against four others who fought being drafted. Rejected were appeals by Albert H. Holmes, a Chicago Jehovah's Witness minister who was "sentenced to a three year prison term for refusing to report for work at a conscientous objector at a state hospital; Marvin Vondon Hart Jr., who took the same course in Pennsylvania: Reuben Joel Chiffman a VISTA volunteer who was ordered inducted by his New York City draft board when he partici pated in a war protest at the Justice Department last October, and Michael J.

Hershey, director of Selective Service reported in late 1967 that 618 draft-age youths in 46 states had turned in burned or otherwise illegally disposed of draft cards. The law was passed in 1965 as an amendment to the selective service act, making it a crime to knowingly destroy or mutilate a draft card.

Held in a 8-1 decision that a un ion member cannot be expelled for taking a grievance to the National Labor Relations Board before exhausting union procedures if his complaint is not entirely an internal union affair.

Mr. B was unemployed and had been for about two weeks before he went to Welfare for assistance After applying he was informed that they would not be able to help them until a home visit was made. After interviewing Mr. B. we knew with his problem of not being able to hear that it was going to be almost Impossible to find work for him. We talked at length about his background. Mr. B. is formerly from Statesboro, Ga. In 1949, when he lost his hearing thorugh an accident, he explored the resources in Stateboro and was not able to get help nor find employment. Mr. B. decided to leave Ga. and go to Indiana seeking work, but he could not find n Job, so he returned to Stateboro five months later.

It was found that he could not be helped through their agency; because he was totally deal. His counslor tried to relei him to Atlanta Speech School, but they lest track of him. 1937 the family was living in the Urban Renewal Area and was burned out and that is when they became known to East Central NSC. We assisted with housing and clothing for the entire family. After our assistance the family was able to function very well on their own until May 3, 1968 that is when their case was reopened with East Central NSC again. This as late Friday afternoon when they came in. The family did not have food nor money to buy any with. We explored the available resource but they were financially unable to assist them, prior to this we had talked with a minister from one of Atlanta's larger churches about how concerned we were with the problem of unempolyment. We asked if they would consider printing an advertisement hi the Church's News letter as to the efforts we were trying to put forth in getting Jobs for our clients ano would they contact the Center, if they were in need of an employee. From this we received a call from one of the church members to tee if we could get someone to work for her the following Saturday. We explained to Mr. P that the center would be able to give him and his family food for Friday night but that was all we had and could secure. We asked him would he be willing to work that Saturday in order to be able to buy food for his family—he was more than glad to know that someone would give him a days work. The same church member called to let us know how impressed she was with Mr. B and that she hart made an announcement in Church Sunday about his needing work. She put emphasis on how motivated he was to be with Just a 1st grade education and a deafmute. That afternoon we received a call from another resource wanting Mr. B. to work for them a day that week and he also went to this Job and they were impressed. He continued to do jobs that entire week, but it was not enough to buy food, and pay the rent. We began to explore our resources again and was able to come up with the two weeks rent that was due. We continued to explore resources see if we could find Mr. B permanent employment A call came in to inform us that the tame church group would like to hire Mr. B permanently We sent world to him and he was most thankful but he had been able to get his previous Job back with the A Trucking Equipment Co. of Ga.

We hopethat the family can continue to to make progress, and in the very near future will get into public Housing also Mr. B has been referred to the Atlanta Speech School and he will been rolled September 1968.

TV News Branded "Behumanizing" Even when cameras are focl on the core of violence, TV newscasts give only a superficial "dehumanizing" picture of what is happening. Firing this blast, a leading eritic offereds three tips for watching newscasts. Dr. David O. Poindexter suggests. 1. Have the Bible in mind, "preferablv at hand:" 2. Keep in mind that best in sights of contemporary Christian thinkers: 3. Don't pretend to be in an "innocent bystander," because there is no such person. "At best, we observe some surface phenomena" in watching acttion on television, Dr. Poindexter writes in the June issue of To GEther magazine. Persons who lift from one event to another in their watching are being "de humanized," he warns further. "It is a mistake to image that because we have seen some visual repersentations of the action, that we have more than a superficial understanding of what is taking place." Dr. Poindexter explain in TOGETHER, Mehodist general interest monthly magainzine. TV shots do not bring out the "forces and factors which have created a given situation." he goes on, nor do they provide "any depth of feeling." "If you take the Bible seriously," he comments, "you will have to walk hi the other fellow's shoes. Dr. Poindexter urges that every one do lots of "homework" . . . real reliable and authoritative books, magazines and other material which will inform and help individuals "know what to think and how to respond." Scoffing at the term "innocent bystander" 'he makes chat that "the Christian who is actively in volved through his church in secking to understand the present situation, and to build, a better world. will best be able to know how to view the news this summer."
