Braden Reports on South's Fight for Integration
Carl Braden, field secretary of the Southern Conference Educational Fund, spoke to about six hundred Chicagoans at International House about civil rights in the South. He urged Congress to abolish the House Un-American Activities Committee and noted civil liberties must accompany social justice. Abner Mikva pushed Illinois Fair Employment Practices legislation, and Edwin Berry of the Chicago Urban League urged a crusade for equality. The meeting raised over $500, and a local Friends of the SCEDF chapter is forming contact OA 4-0091.
