In Palm Beach the Kennedy administration said significant progress occurred in civil rights over the past year while noting credit also belongs to local and state officials for reducing violence at desegregation events.

The report covers voting, education, transportation, and school desegregation, citing cases showing registration protections expanding and new discrimination charges filed.
