Reluctant Wilkins quits NAACP job after 22 years
Roy Wilkins, 73, steps down after 22 years as executive director of the NAACP as the organization faces internal questions and financial pressures. Benjamin Hooks elected last November to succeed him, with Wilkins planning to remain as consultant. The convention in St Louis marks a tense transition amid a shrinking membership and a $1.25 million Mississippi judgment.

Jackson cited by Pravda as central SALT figure
Pravda portrays Senator Henry M. Jackson as a key, yet hostile, figure in US SALT talks. The piece quotes the New York Times on his influence, notes Soviet distrust of his detente stance, and describes a bill that would have him effectively present at the conference table. Negotiations continue with Vance and Gromyko set to meet in September.

Javits criticizes Carter Mideast plan as unreal and risky
Sen Javits argues that the Carter administration’s Middle East proposals are unrealistically imbalanced, urging Israel not to cede most territories and warning that a pre 1967 border return could invite renewed war. He questions Jerusalem status, Lebanon integrity, and Golan futures while backing a U.S. role as mediator. Sen Percy echoes, urging steady U.S. support for Israel’s security. Mondale outlines peace steps including Palestinian self formulation and a homeland linked to Jordan, while Arabs seek commitment to coexistence.
