Negros Deny Loss of Control in Cairo Sit-Ins
Negro ministers in Cairo denied losing control of high school students in ongoing sit-ins. The Cairo Ministerial Alliance cited a five hour Sunday meeting, while SNCC workers and Mary McCollum of Nashville aided planning. Proposals urge hotel restaurant and professional office integration, a human relations commission, and fair employment. A mass meeting is planned Thursday night with jailed students awaiting trial.
