Nixon Speeches am
Command Attentio
Hy Samuel P. Perry, Jr.
Atlantic City, ,N.J.?A N P-- Two
speeches delivered hy Vice-President
Richard M. Nixon, two days
apart, received the attention of
the 850 delegates to the 40th an
, liual convention of the NAAGP
here. '
the first sneech. delivered i n
the heart of Harlem, under the
auspices of a newspaper news agency,
contained a strong appeal
for a "temper: t." attitude" and
"persuasion rather than compulsion."
Ironically/ the speech was I
given in an arefa where Negroes
once had to walk on picket lines
to secure jobs in an area predominantly
populated by them.
-? . (Only several weeks prior to
Nixon's?visit, Negro and white
leaders commemorated the 10th
birthday of the State Commission
Against Discrimination and
enunciated the belief that antibias
legislation backed with legal
teeth was the best answer for
meeting the prejudice which led I
to discrimination in employment
and in places of- public -accomo.
clations. in fact, on the very day Mr.
Nixon w$s speaking, the i
New York States Supreme Court
upheld a 2-1 rulings 1 of. t h e i

to admit a Negro women and <

lem talk of Niko'n were: (1)
The Eisenhower admin is- '
trationtration had mo&h
progress towards ?? H' of
"equal opportunity. for ^ of oqr '
citizens, regardless of raci, crefed
or color/' _ tha^i - "in any . sipiila^,
period since 1865";
(2) . Responsible -Negro leaders '
had helped t h a "states 1
manlike and t-amprirato ntt-ituHn"; _i
(3) Education end* persuasion,
not compulsion, had been utiliz- 1
ed by the Eisenhower? administration
and were the best weap
chs to deal with the problem ;
nationally; " '
(4) Thousands of jobs h adP
been opened, to Negroes through <
, the President's Committees o n '
Federal Employment .and on Gov
^ ernment Contracts. ? '
"Negroes have the same access
to the Ptyjdn^nt. 'Nixon cited, as
-"/a|hijr *eKie?tufr and the Supreme
CoiJr.t's decision against segregat
, .y ion ii >6ing implemented with far '
less difficulty than was predicted."
Two days later the vice presi- I
. ' ctwit had the occassion to address
the NAACP delegates here atU
their final session.
"The completion of the integra 1
tion of the public school system 1
shall be among the most important
objectives , &f the future,"
Nixon asserted.
"Reaching this objective," h e|
continued, "will not only provide
true equality of opportunity for
education, but it is the most effective
way to eliminate prejudices
which otherwise might con
tinue to exist between Americans
of different backgrounds.
"I believe that some of the
reasons for the progress which
has been made under the president's
leadership are:
""First, he has refused to make
promises he couldn't keep. Second
rather than talk about laws,
which couldn't be passed, he has
enforced the laws he already
had. Thirfl, he ht^ consistently
refused to play partisan politics
with this issue. Fourth, he has
placed the full moral weight o f
his personal prestige and designed
to realize our common goal"
in the next 10 years than in the;
last 90 years."
Included in Mr. Nixon's objectives
for the future were: (a) e-j
quality of opportunity for em-'
-ployment, with particular em- \
phasis on more adequate training
programs so that Negroes "can
qualify for j-o-b?opportunition which
become available", (b) better
housing with emphasis on
homes rather than housing; (c)
"th# removal of the last ves
tiges of discrimination in the Dis

However, Nixon's speech had
hardly sunk into the minds of
the delegates when Roy-AVilkins,
successor to the late and dynamic
Walter White, countered the
president's criticism of Powell's
anti-segregation rider on the Re-,
serve Bill. .
"On June 8," Wilkins stated,

nee lnshe i out at those who.
seek anti-segregation a in e n dments
to pending legislation, ineluding

"We who seek the amendments

plainly and unmistakably that it
is not we who seek our own way
at the expense of the country.
It is the Southern IDemocratic
bloc which openly threatened to
kill -the bill unless i t contained ni
their provisions for Sgeregatioii. w
"The president has every right "77
to demand legislation he deems cj
