Continental Camp Restored
NEW WINDSOR. N.Y. (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.

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

torinus action is owned by the
association and is displayed at

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

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

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

The FBI in turn notified Med
ford that Cook was wanted in New

cities were alerted and the man
was traced to a hotel in Klamath

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

Norblad said Hatfield and Gold

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

of conservatism and the remar
riage of New York Gov. Nelson
