AVERELL HARRIMAN WINS OVATION IN CHI. CHICAGO (ANP) Averell Harriman made a major speech in Chicago Wednesday night when he spoke at the Roosevelt college dinner to a throng which packed the grand ballroom of the Palmer House. Introduced by Gov. Adlai Ste venson, himself regarded favor ably as prosidential timber, Har riman heard himself praised as a citizen who had given of his great talent in whole hearted service to his country in high level diplo matic and governmental tasks for 20 years. Gov. Stevenson said he is truly fitted by strength, capa bility and experience to fill the post of chief evecutive of the Uni ted States. Harriman in his address noted a number of remedies which he felt could help to heal the world’s difficulties. Former administrative officer of NRA, lendlease admin istrator, special assistant to the President and former ambassador to Russia, Harriman indicated pos itive ideas on how to move to con tain the Kremlin and Stalin. He said the United States had the strength, the wisdom, the man power and the ability to do the job. He urged unity of thought, aban donment of isolationism, and en couragement of our allies. He assailed congressional cuts in the mutual security and Point 4 bud gets. To the generous sprinkling of colored people at the dinner, one of the high points came when Har riman declared that one of the jobs the United States was big enough to conquer and master was that of assuring every American citizen his civil rights. “We must assure that all of our people have a stake in our de mocracy,” Harriman declared. “Race, color, creed or national origin must not affect the oppor tunities of any American to share all of the benefits as well as all of the responsibilities of full cit izens of the United States.” President Edward J. Sparling of Roosevelt and Gardner Sterm, vice-chairman of the trustee board, presided. Among the participants was Miss Mary Crowley, dramatic soprano. advertise MIAMI TIMES, MIAMI, FLORIDA SATURDAY, JUNE 7, 1982 Polling Place Dynamited In Jax JACKSONVILLE (ANP) Dynamite exploded here last week in what appeared to be threats taken against the idea of Negroes voting in last week’s Fla. second primary.
