lowing is the text of Wilkins’
letter to the President:
"The NAACP opposes the
nomination of Mr. Ben Black-
burn m chairman of the Fed-
eral Home Loan Bank Board.
We know Mr. Blackburn’s rec-
ord to be insensitive and hos-
tile to equal opportunity in hous-
ing and to civil rights in gen-
eral. He is not the man to
place at the helm of a federal
agency that hM primary re-
sponsibility for enforcing fair
housing laws.
"Mr. Blackburn’s appoint-
ment would make a mockery at
the agency’s duty to devise and
enforce meaningful regulations
and guidelines by which mort-
gage lending institutions would'
be required to give minorities
fair treatment under the law.
"We urn you to rescind this
nomination."

vilian employees, only 26 are
black and one la Spanlsh-eur-
named.

ants with using qualifications,
tests, and other selection stand-
ards that have a dispropor-
tionately adverse impact on
blacks, Spanlsh-surnamod, and
woman and that have not boon

quirements of the 1908 Law En-
forcement Assistance admlnl-
