National Links Raise Funds For NAACP NEW YORK—A nationally knowm social action club, the Links, has undertaken another NAACP fund raising drive it was announced recently by Roy Wilkins, NAACP executive secretary. Entitled the “Links Christmas Card Substitute Plans,” members of the club across the country are sending all their usual Christmas card greeting money to the NAACP freedom fund. Substitute greeting card forms, explaining the nature and purpose of the drive are sent to friends. The recipients in turn are asked to do the same thing, thus setting up a chain effect. Mrs. Frances Forsythe of Montclair, N.J., co-chairman of the drive, said that it seeks to obtain financial aid for the sit-ins and similar activities, and to allow every interested person to participate in the struggle for freedom and human rights. This is done without seeking any new funds or extra effort from individuals. The Links, longtime NAACP supporters, .will carry out their Christmas greeting card substitute plan in all of their 88 chapters located in 27 states. The Links in its seven years has established an exceptional record of underwriting the civil rights struggle. By 1954, all of the functioning chapters had pledged to purchase NAACP life memberships. Subsequently, each incoming unit has followed suit, so that today there are 68 fully paid Link units in the NAACP life membership program.
Scott, Joseph Lyons and Mrs. V. Brechtel. The South Bend branch, Mrs. Charles Wills, president, left no stone unturned in providing a warm welcome for the visiting delegates. A lovely political luncheon, a large banquet and a mid- : night party were held Saturday. One of the most exciting high- | lights of the convention was the address on “Political Parties” by , Mrs. Harriett Bailey Conn, local j attorney and daughter of the late Atty. R. 1.. Bailey. Mrs. Conn studied law w r hile keeping house for her husband and seven chil-
dren.
In her address she told the delegates the Negro must “stop looking for something because he is colored, and start to qualify. Once the Negro qualifies, he can be
placed.”
Coming in for the finals Saturday were Attys. Chavis and Lewis, and Messrs. Moses Gibson, Chandler Houston and Judge Mercer
Mance.
