Segregationists Still Trying to 'Muzzle' NAACP By VICTOR CALVERTON RICHMOND, Va. (ANP) — Diehard segregationists here are still trying by every scheme imaginable to make the Virginia Conference of NAACP Branches turn over its membership list to the State Corporation Commission. The commission wants to inspect the associa - tion’s records and list of members. Virginia segregationists have been smarting under gains made by Negroes through court battles ever since the school desegregation decision of the U. S. Supreme Court on May 17. 1954. They are hot after the NAACP for spearheading the victories which have been won in the past ten years. Virginia Negro-haters have resorted to various schems to frighten NAACP members with the hope of breaking up the organization. If the list is released, it is certain that members of the NAACP would be subjected to economic reprisals and harassment, Oliver W. Hill. NAACP counsel, told the commission not to require the disclosure of the names and addresses of NAACP members and contributors, but he said the NAACP was willing to provide Information on its financial accounts. The only thing we don’t want to reveal are the names and addresses
