(UPI)-I American independence was do clared in Philadelphia on July 4, 1778, but it was in this Continen tal Army encampment now un- der restoration that Gen. George! Washington stood fast against making the new nation a mon archy. Washington and the bulk of his army camped at the New Wind sor cantonment, in the Hudson Highlands near West Point, for eight months in 1782-83 while the Treaty of Paris was being writ ten and the British continued to occupy New York. Cornwallis had surrendered in 1781 and Washing ton's men were chafing to get back to their farms and business es, but not without some pay in their pockets. Dissatisfaction with the near- bankrupt Continental Congress, sitting in Philadelphia, was ram pant, especially among Washing ton's officers. They complained of pay arrears, unsettled food and Negro Association Ends 'Host Crucial' Meeting CHICAGO (UP1) - The Nation al Association for the Advance ment of Colored People (NAACP) climaxed the most crucial con vention in its half-century history with a massive Independence Day "march for freedom" todayl through downtown Chicago. National leaders of the Negro! civil rights movement and Chi cago Mayor Richard J. Daley led the holiday parade, which was expected to include at least 50,000 marchers. NAACP officials hoped it would match a recent Detroit demon stration which topped 100,000 participants. On hand to the "march with the freedom fighters" weiei Roy Wilkins, NAACP executive secretary; Mrs. Mcdgar Evers, wife of the slain Mississippi inte gration leader; the Rev. Fred Shuttlcsworth, president of the Alabama Christian Movement for Civil Rights and one of the lead ers of the Birmingham demon strations; James Meredith, the Air Force veteran who Integrated the University of Mississippi; and Negro architectural student Harv ey Gjntt, first of his race to at-! tend Clemson College. Charles laws, NAACP regional secretary, said the parade gave citizens an opportunity "to show their concern and discontentment over continued racial inequality in the United States." The NAACP continued Its 54th annual convention Wednesday with a session highlighted by pro tests, emergency resolutions picketing demonstrations and speeches by Negro leaders. Two Negro "jockey" figurines standing in the lobby of tho Mor rison Hotel, NAACP convention headquarters, drew heated pro tests from delegates who vowed a "selective buying protest" against the hotel unless the fig ures were removed. They were removed by the hotel management. The "jockey" ligurincs, also re fcrred to as grooms, houseboys or slableliands, stood at the door way of the hotel's "Jockey Club." They had been covered with white boxes before delegates ar rived tor the meeting. An emergency resolution wasl passed by the delegates which labeled tho statues "pitch-black house-boy figurines (which) epi tomize and further the character ization of Negroes as shiny-faced, spineless, servile 'Uncle Toms. The hotel management said it removed the statues because "ivo wanted to cooperate with them. WALL STREET NEW YORK t'UPD - Hirsch 4 Co. says all internal evidence points to a continuation of the satisfactory trend in common slocks, subject to occasional cor rections from timo to lime. However, tho firm says, the se curity holder should not lose sight of proper portfolio manage ment goals and should continue to stress a considerable degree of quality in his investments so that gains remain In cvidenco over the long term. Ralph Rotncm of Harris, Up ham & Co. believes tho market is testing itself to find out if it has enough strength to start the usual summer rally.

If 1 H Wf, 7-y "What sort of entertainment do you suggest for a husband who wishes he'd stayed at home and bought a power saw?" clothing accounts and failure of Ihc Congress to grant them prom ised life pensions at half pay. This led to the suggestion that Washington take over by assum ing the crown with the aid of his army. Faced With Rebellion Washington brushed aside the suggestion, expressed in a letter from Col. Lewis Nicola, with an noyance and scorn, but soon he was faced with a more serious rebellion against the Congress led by Maj. John Armstrong. The major circulated anonymous broadsides at the cantonment, urging the officers to openly defy Congress. Washington countered by calling a grievance meeting l March 15, 1783. At the meeting, the father of his country shamed the rebels by pleading for the same loyalty and patience with their government that he had given his officers during the dark days of the Rev olution. Washington vowed the Congress would treat its army of- ficcrs justly, and I he officers backed him by adopting a resolu lion affirming their confidence in the government and their disdain of Armstrong's "infamous propo sitions. The huge log building In which Ihis historic meeting took place, the Temple of Virtue, stands again on its hilltop site. The ori ginal disappeared long ago, but a replica lias been painstakingly built by the National Temple Hill Association, Inc., and it will be rededicated as a museum later this year. Owns Many lluildings The association also owns the only surviving structure of the 700-building canlonment, the offi cer's hut, and plans eventually to reconstruct soldiers huts, stables, blacksmith's and armorer's shops, a prison, print shop, stockade and guardhouses as donations permit The Hashrouck House, Washing ton's headquarters in neighboring Ncwhiirgh, N.Y., still stands and is owned by the state. Tho Continental Army broke camp June 13, 1783, but Washing- Ion remained in tho Hudson Val ley wiih a small body ot men until the British evacuated Man hattan in November and he could make a triumphant entry into '.ho city. It was at Hashrouck House that Washington established the Order of Merit, now known as the Pur ple Heart, in 1782. One of the two riginnl Purple Hearts that giv en Sgt. Elijah Churchill for mcri torinus action is owned by the association and is displayed at the Icniplc. It was also at the temple that the Society of the Cincinnati was formed by Washington's officers in 1783 with Washington as first president. This organization, lim ited to descendants of tho origin al members in the eldest male line, still exists with '.100 mem bers. Freedom End Here Twelve years of illicit freedom finally came to an end Tuesday night for Albert Henry Cook, San Gabriel, Calif., when city police arrested him at the carnival grounds for allegedly violating pa role Aug. 27, 1951, in New York. Cook was paroled after being convicted of grand theft in New York. Area police were alerted to Cook's past record after he was arrested on a drunk charge in Medford last month. The Medford City Police, as a matter of rou tine, sent Cook's mug .shot and fingerprints to the FBI in Wash ington for permanent fliing. The FBI in turn notified Med ford that Cook was wanted in New York. Police agencies in all area cities were alerted and the man was traced to a hotel in Klamath Falls and picked up Tuesday. which had to be replaced, i estimated at J 10.000. I lie loot Irom the thefts was almost completely recovered, the chief said. It took a pickup truck to gather the stolen items from vacant garages and barns. Chief Smith said he and his staff just kept working on clues until they found the boys. Don t ask me w hy they did Chief Smith said. "How do you answer a question like that? He added that the whole tiling makes me sick. une ot the boys had been in trouble before, the chief said. One comes from a broken home.

He said Hatfield's name is not mentioned in Washington, D.C., as a serious presidential choice, but he is often considered a likely choice as a vice presidential can didate with anyone except Sen. Barry Goldwatcr, R-Arizona. Norblad said Hatfield and Gold water are not too far apart po litically, just too close geographi cally. He said Hatfield would be the logical running mate with a presi dential candidate from the east. But Norblad said Goldwater is out in front as a presidential can didate because of the resurgence of conservatism and the remar riage of New York Gov. Nelson Rockefeller.
