Re|»ort Recommends New Racial Policies for Armed Forces WASHINGTON - Changes In policy add procedures de­ signed to eradicate racial dis­ crim ination in the armed serv­ ices and to provide protection against off-base racism are recommended in a report sub­ mitted to Secretary of Defense Melvin R. la ir d by Roy Wil­ kins, executive director of the NAACP The 55-page report, entitled “ The Search for M ilitary Jus­ tic e ," is the product of a three- man NAACP team, headed by General Counsel Nathaniel R Jones, which toured U.S. m ili­ tary installations in West Ger­ many for three weeks last January-February. Members of the team were Julius W illiams, the associ ation's director of armed sen- ices and veterans affairs, and Melvin W. Bolden, assistant general counsel The team visited 1$ in- ! •lallations and talked with hun­ dreds of Negro servicemen, in­ dividually and in groups, at all levels, enlisted men as well as officers. The NAACP repre­ sentatives listened to the ex-1 periences and complaints of the black sen icemen The re­ port describes the team's find­ ings in such areas as the ad­ m inistration of justice, hous­ ing, recreation, employment •nd promotions. Bitterest ( omplalsts The txiteresf complaints in-1 voiced the administration of, Justice within the services and the bias encountered in seeking off-base housing for Negro servicemen and their families. "W ithout question,” the re­ port asserts, "the most per­ vasive problem confronting Negro soldiers in West Germa­ ny is that of housing Regard- j less of rank or age of the serv­ icemen, there were strong feel- M M expressed against dis­ crim ination being practiced by Germans against the bleck sol d ie r s " The report called for "tmme diate and sweeping steps" b y 1 the Department nt Defense and the United States Arm y toi ’ elim inate the glaring as well •s the subtle inequities" in the| administration of Justice. One recommendation called1 upon the Department of the Arm y to "contract with civil Î rights organizations, such as the NAACP, and with Individ ual lawyers, to provide black j legal representation to service m cn in West Germany.” <2 Proposals The recommendations for re form of the services are basic! and comprehensive Among the 42 proposals submitted to Secretary la iird are the follow tag: • Revision of the career as j ■Ignment practices Including! T o Oust N ixo n Congress U rg e d The Impeachment of Presi­ dent Nixon was called M r this week by the American Civil Liberties Union of Southern California. Congress was urged by the group to initiate proceedings to oust the President and also urged to vote against any fur­ ther appropriations for contin­ uing U S. m ilita ry operations in Southeast Asia. President Nixon should he impeached, the ACLU urged, "fo r perpetuating the violation of the United States Con- adoptinn of an effective Phila­ delphia Plan" and elimination of extraneous non-job-related tests for promotion tmns possibly resulting in an • Requirement that all ac- undesirable discharge he "a c­ ted upon only by a m ilitary court, with the serviceman guaranteed his right to coun­ sel Such a proceeding should be mandatory and not ame­ nable to a wavier ” • Assumption by the De­ partment of Defpnse of "all leasing responsibilities relating to off-base housing of \m eri- can servicemen in West Ger­ many . . . The burden of fight­ ing German landlord dis­ crim ination would then be shifted from the shoulders of individual Negro servicemen to those of the American govern­ m ent;” • Imposition of “ 'o ff-lim it' sanctions against any public bar or tavern that practices ra­ cial discrimination directly or in dire ctly;” • Drastic curtailment of the finement of black servicemen practice of long pretrial con- without specific charges being placed against them. • Requirement that all American servicemen residing in German-controlled apart­ ments, housing complexes or developments that bar black servicemen terminate their leases in compliance with "o ff- hm ites" sanctions. Tlie NAACP team found that ' the overwhelming number of Negro servicemen with whom we talked are prepared to con­ 3 tinue the fight for change with­ in the system if they can be assured that those wno possess the power also have the w ill to bring about meaningful change . . . Nonetheless, an uncomfor­ table number of younger Negro servicemen are disenchanted, alienated and have lost faith in the capocity and the w ill of the armed forces to deal honestly with their problems." In France, immediately fol­ lowing the end of World War I, W E B. Du Bois, then the edi­ tor of the Crisis, unearthed the scandalous, officially-spon­ sored discrim ination against Negro servicemen.
