A research committee of the
Oregon Council of Churches rec
ommends that the 1957 Legislature
set 'up an interim committee to
study the problem of migrant
labor. That there is such a prob
lem is hardly to be denied. Some
times it is lack of such labor; at
other times it is an oversupply
for the Jobs at hand. And always
there are problems relating to the
housing, health, education of farm
lies of such workers. Whether the
Legislature will want to authorize
an investigation I do not know. It
Is usually more convenient to look
the other way when difficult situa

He added that if Sun hipments

Strong Possibility

there is a strong possibility now
Stevenson can make it on the
first ballot. Since Monday, when
he predicted Stevenson's nomina

a new spurt toward Stevenson had
developed.
Col. Jacob Arvey, national com

Probably this Stevenson senti

extent it came from friends of
the 1952 party nominee. The Cali

solid for Stevenson with 6 votes.
Still, the possible straws in the

CHICAGO Because- civil rights Is the one malce-or

retary of the National Association for the Advancement of
Colored People, is a key figure here. He is also an interest
ing man to talk to.
Wilkins is a thin, solwrly dressed NegrB of 55, with an
oddly boyish face. He is a decorous man, mild-mannered, intelll-

talks like a learned professor of sociology. But once In a while
you sense the intensity of feeling behind his carefully chosen
words.'
Here, for example, is Wilkins, in his best professorial atyle,
on how change will come to the South: "Areas of racial reaction
will so isolate themselves in their philosophies aixf-practices that
great externa! and internal pressures for change will automatically
be generated."
Bitterness Engulfs Negro's Voice
But here is Wilkins when the bitterness breaks through the
schoolmasterish style. "No other people would have endured so
long being stomped on and kicked and humiliated."
The bitterness is only occasional, and Wilkins clearly makes
a great effort to control it, to be patient and reasonable. "I'm
not in favor of taking a baseball 'bat and beating anybody's brains
out," he says. "If there's ever sny violence down South, the
Negroes won't start it. They never do. The Southerners talk about ,
sending Federal troops down there to enforce de-segregation. You
won't find a single Negro leaden- who's ever ssid anything about
Federal troops."
Desegregation, Wilkins explains, again in his professorial style,
has become the great symbol-issue for all Negroes. "We see It

as a status issue whether we arc going to remain second class
citizens forever.. The feeling of status permeates the whole of
Negro life from one end of the country to the other."
Then the professorial manner breaks down again, when he
talks with a grin about "that Judge Rredy down South who says
we're a criminal race only two generations from eating cock
roaches." The grin is not a gay grin. And there is a real, fierce
bitterness when Wilkins talks ahinut the economic pressures brought
to bear on southern Negnes who support the NAACP: "They'll
take a sharecropper, a poor country Negro tied to the land, and
kick him nut. have no shame in starving him."

Asks End to
'Regency of

BY WHITNEY SHOEMAKER '
CONVENTION 1 1 ALU CW
cago (AP) Sen. Wayne Morse,
the Oregon Republican-turned
Democrat, exhorted Americans
Tuesday night to elect a Demo
cratic president this fall and
end "government by big business
regency."
Morse described himself as "tha
target of a White House Purge"
which would "fall flat on Its face".
The Oregon Senator is seeking
reelection and predicted be would
defeat his GOP opponent, former
Secretary of the Interior Doug
las McKay. Eisenhower accepted
McKay's resignation aa secretary
earlier this year with a hearty
boost for his Senste candidacy.
Morse brake with Eisenhower

"that rigor and the vision ta asa

lems of the 10th Century not at'
an Instrument of reaction and re
trogression." In a speech at the w indup aea
aion ef tha second night ef the De
mocratic National, Convention,
Morse accused the Eiseehowef
administration ef "dragging Hs
feet" ea aid to education.
Telia of "Sacrifice"
He also charged the administra
tion with sacrificing natural re
sources "in its willingness ta
serve the limited ends of special
interest groups."
Democrats, Morse said, repeat
edly "came to the rescue" of
Eisenhower in the field of foreign
policy "when his own party failed
to support him."
But he said that "unfortunately.
the President didn't reciprocate
on many Issues for which the lib
erals foucht."
Many Republicans, he ssid, are
still isolationist in outlook "time
has passed them by."
The record shows, Morse add
ed, "that the administration has
been reactionary in economic
affairs st the cost of the general
welfare of the people of the
country."
Lots of Demarrata
Stepping off a plane from Wash
ington earlier in the day, Morse
was clearly Invigorated by his
proximity toso many Democrats
in one place.
"Fine, fine. Just fine." he de
clared, when asked how he liked
the idea of being welcomed by a
National Democratic Convention.
"I've only been to one other
convention the Republican con
vention in 1952." he said. "This
one is going to be fine."
He was met at the airport by
his legislative aide. Merton Bern

of Bernstein's mother to whip his
