Boastman Held For Attacking Negro Seaman BOATSMAN REMOVED AFTER ATTACK ON NEGRO SEAMAN As the result of NAACP inter vention, Coast Guard officers have removed the boatswain from the American cargo ves sel P and T Navigator becanse of the man’s attempts to pro voke racial violence on board ship, it was revealed here last week by Herbert Hill, NAACP labor secretary. The boatsman, Alvin Giesy, is being held for prosecution in Long Beach, California, where the ship was docked when he was approached by the Coast Guard on July 31, Mr. Hill said. A complaint of Mr. Giesy’s threats of violence against Negro es on board the ship was brought to Mr. Hll by the Negro seaman when the vessel dcked in New York harbor in June. Mr. Hill demanded action by the Goast Guard to remove Mr. Giesy from the P and T Navigat or and at the same time notified the steamship company that the and would hold the company re sponsible for any acts of violence committed against Negro sea men on board the ship. On July 16, while the P and T Navigator was docked at Pensa cola, Fla., Mr. Giesy allegedly at tacked the chief steward and an other Negro seaman with a knife, having smashed open the door of the room in which they were sit ing. The Coast Guard now is com pleting its investigation of the situation. 18 POINT 2 COLUMN WILKINS URGES JUSTICE DEPARTMENT PROBE OF TERROR IN MISSISSIPPI The mounting tension in the | State of Mississippi accompanied by threats of death to registered Negro voters and other acts of in timidation require prompt federal intervention, Roy Wilkins, execu tive secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, said last week in letter to Attorney General Herbert Brownell. Mr. Wilkins enclosed unsigned death threats received through the mails by a Lowdes county school teacher and his wife, two of three Negrqes registered to vote .in that county. He also cited the action of Tom J. Tubb, chairman of the Clay County Democratic executive committee, ordering the ballots of all Negro voters in Tuesday’s Democratic primary turned over to him. A United Press dispatch quotes Tubb as saying: “We don’t intend to have Negroes voting in this primary.” Reports of NAAtCP officials in the state indicating widespread terror in connection with the gu bernatorial contest and the school desegregation issue were also cited' in Mr. Wilkins letter. The situa ! tion is such, he told Mr. Brownell, that “the president of our state organization in Jackson has had to request pplice protection.” These incidents and threats, the NAACP leader told the Attorney General “warrant prompt action by your department to avert vio lence and to protect Negro citi zens in their right to vote.” “No responsible official,” he continued, “from the Governor and the United States senators on down, no institution nor any leading white citizen in the entire state of Mississippi has spoken out for decency and fairplay these hysterical weeks just past. Indeed, the White Citizens Council assertedly composed of substant ial leaders in each county, have encouraged the baiting and intim idation of Negroes.” Negroes in Mississippi, Mr. Wilkins said, “have no recourse except to their Federal Govern ment. In the midst of a civilized nation in 1955, they are in a jungle of race hatred and terror, at the mercy of any hoodlum who chooses to attack. The ballot, the weapon of free men has been taken from them by force. They are helpless except for such other weapons as they may possess and may or may not choose to employ.’’ The Department of Justice, the NACCP spokesman said “should act without delay” and send in outside agents, uninfluenced by local contacts, to make a thorough investigation in preparation for court action.
