NAACP Board Suspends
NEW YORK -The suspension
of Robert. F. Williams from his
post as president of the Mon¬
roe, N.C., branch of the NAACP
has been upheld and extended
to cover a six-month period
ending Ncv. 6.
The Association’s Board ot
Directors at its regular monthly
meeting here cn June 8 voted
unanimously to sustain Execu¬
tive Secretary Roy Wilkins’
action in suspending Mr. Wi!
liams following the laitters
public advocacy on May 5 of
meeting “violence with vio-
lence” and stopping "lynching
with lynching."
The board acted upon the
findings, conclusions and reco-
omanendation of Its Committee
on Branches which heiid a
hearing on June 3. The commit¬
tee considered the charges made
by Wilkins that statements is¬
sued by the North Carolinian
“are inimical to the best in¬
terest of the Association," and
constitute “a direct violation
of the national policy of the
NAACP as set forth in its Ar¬
ticles of Incorporation, Consti¬
tution and Qy-Laws, and the
policy resolutions of its annual
conventions."
Mr. Williams was represented
by counsel at the hearing. The
committee heard testimony by
and received evidence from
both sides. On June 8, the
committee reconvened to sum¬
marize its findings and prepare
its recommendation for sub-
mission to the board.
The full report for the com¬
mittee was unanimously adop¬
ted by the board whicih voted
“that tbe action of the Execu¬
tive Secretary suspending Mr.
Williams be approved and that
the suspension continue for six
months until November 6, 1959.
and during that period Mr.
Williams be ineligible to hold
any office in the NAACP or
any of its branches or sub¬
divisions and that until the
next election the vice-president
or his successor shall discharge
the dwties of the president."
The finding® reviewed the
history of the case and sum¬
marized the testimony. The
board concluded bhat Mr. Wil¬
liams’ statement of May 5 “en¬
dangers the effectiveness of
the NAACP, especially in the
South."
“However understandable
theee emotional outbursts may
be in terms of gross injustice to
Negroes in the United States
and the failure of the courts
and law enforcement agencies
to protect the rights of Ne¬
groes,” the board statement
continued, ‘“the NAACP cannot
support any sentiment calling
