EARTHA STUNS PRESIDENT'S WIFE: Mrs. Lyndon Johnson listens soberly to Eortho Kitt at a White House luncheon for women concerned with crime in the street, shortly before Miss
Kitt took the floor after a panel discussion to assail administration policy in the Viet Nam War. Mrs. Johnson was stunned by the singer's outburst.
The planned schedule of the National Governors’ Conference will permit no time for discussion of President Johnson’s Vietnam war policies. The heads of states are expected to tackle the problems of providing funds for education, jobs, and housing for ghetto areas. It is anticipated that Democratic Gov. Otto Kerner of Illinois, who heads President Johnson’s National Advisory Commission on Civil Disorders, will present ideas for interstate policing of riots from a con-

Powell says in Bimini - 'put* whites on spot' BIMINI, Bahamas—(NPI) — Adam Clayton Powell has returned home from a California speaking tour, where he asserted that he would “put the white man on the spot in this nation and in Congress.” Powell’s California u 11 erances__many directed at whites __were still reverberating, long after his departure. The controversial politdcan made a big hit with Watts residents during a visit to the riot-struck community. But he really scored at UCLA, when he told 6,000 students that it was black people’s turn to free the white man, a century after Abaham Lincoln freed the slaves. The ousted U. S. representative from New York noted that “the smoldering resentment in the ghettos of America is not a monopoly with young black people. They just have the guts to get with it.” Powell called the predominantely white students “victims of ‘the cult of mediocrity.’ If you try to break with that, Mr. White Man and Miss White Girl, they’re going to throw you back.” The representative-elect then offered his brand of “emancipation” for white people: joining the black revolution. “I know you white boys and girls are frustrated. You need something to move you,” he said, adding: “The trouble with you young white people is you don’t have leadership.” Black people, on the other hand, are a “new breed of cats,” he averred. “We are finished with 400 years of deprivation. We are insisting on full equality now. . . We are proud we are black. We are the same as you are. And ip a sense we are better than you.”
