English Conservative
to Speak at Forum
Fergus Montgomery, member of Parliament and party whip of
the Conservative Party, will discuss the English political scene at the
Tuesday Evening Forum next Tuesday at 8 p.m. in Sexson Auditorium.
Montgomery will discuss the recent election in England and the
political directions which the Labor Party is expected to pursue. He
is also expected to discuss the relationships of the new Labor govern¬
ment to the NATO alliance and the aspirations of French President
Charles DeGaulle for the third major European power.
A former teacher, Montgomery achieved a news-making upset
victory in 1959 when he won his seat in the House of Commons from
a Socialist candidate who had been a minister in the Labor govern¬
ment and had represented the constituency for over 14 years. Mont¬
gomery became the first Conservative ever to represent this area.
Educated at Bede College of Durham University, he served in
the Royal Navy following World War II and then taught in England
for nine years. He began his political career in 1945 and has steadily
moved his way up the political ladder.
In 1960, Montgomery participated in a United States government
program in which he toured America speaking to thousands of civic-
minded persons.

NAACP Criticizes Tournament
for Distorting Statements
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored
People lashed out against the Tournament of Roses last week
concerning the selection of the Rose Queen. Fletcher Smith,
president of the Pasadena branch of the NAACP, and Edward
Strong, chairman of the Com¬
munity Coordinating Committee,
criticized the Tournament for mis¬
representing statements made by
the NAACP. The two men made
their comments in a letter to the
Courier (full text on page two).
The Negro leaders said, “The
Tournament of Roses after each
meeting with the NAACP, has,
in a press release, misinterpreted
the requests of the NAACP, say¬
ing, ‘The NAACP demands we
choose a Negro queen or a mem¬
ber of her court’.” Smith and
Strong called this charge an “un¬
truth.”
They clarified the NAACP po¬
sition by stating: “The present
method of choosing the occupants
of the Queen’s float has by psy¬
chological necessity been discrim¬
inatory. The base of choosing is
too narrow.” They said that the
NAACP feels that it would be
more democratic to allow PCC to
make the selection of the float oc¬
cupants, leaving the choice of the
Queen up to the Tournament.
Strong and Smith further
charged that these continual mis¬
interpretations by the Tourna¬
ment of Roses “gives us greater
reason to think that their past ex¬
clusion of all opportunities of mi¬
norities to be members of the
Queen’s float has been by deliber¬
ate design.”
