His warning Tuesday night came but a few hours before it was disclosed that Medgar Ev- ers, Negro integration leader in Mississippi, had been shot and killed. The president outlined a broad legislative program that he will propose to Congress next week. He said it will be based on the proposition "'that race has no place in American life or law." A great change is at hand, he said, and "'our task, our obli- gation, is to make that revolu- tion, that change, peaceful and constructive for all." Kennedy appeared on radio and television in a fireside civil rights lecture to Americans of both northern and southern States only hours after Alabama Governor George C. Wallace} bowed to federal pressure and| stepped aside to let two Negro} students register at the previ- ously all-white University of Alabama. EXAMINE CONSCIENCE "I hope that every American, |regardless of where he lives, will stop and examine his eonsci- ence about this and other re- lated incidents," said Kennedy. "When Americans are sent to Viet Nam or West Berlin, we do not ask for whites only," he said. "It ought to be possible, therefore, for American students of any color to attend any pub- lic institution they select without having to be backed up by troops. "In short, every American ought to have the right. to be treated, as one would wish his children to be treated. But this is mot the case." Kennedy, declaring that U.S. faces "a moral crisis as a coun- try and as a people," said he will. ask Congress to make a civil right commitment "'it has not fully made in this century. {HITS DISCRIMINATION The president said he will taurants and theatres from dis- criminating against Negroes. 2. Allow the federal govern- ment to take a more active part in court suits aimed at deseg- regating public schools. 3. Afford greater protection for Negroes' right to vote. In Birmingham, Ala., which was torn by racial strife last month, Rev. Martin Luther K'ng Jr., disclosed that he sent a tele- gram to the president saying the speech was "'one of the most eloquent, profound and umequi- vocal pleas for justice and free- dom of all men ever made by any president." Acknowledging the new laws are not enough, Kennedy said, however, that in too many parts of the. country wrongs are in- flicted on Negroes because they have no remedies at law -- and "unless the Congress acts, their only remedy is the street." In Congress, leaders of both parties promised to put. their shoulders to the wheel. "I recognize that Congress Negro JACKSON, Miss. (AP)--Med- gar W. Evers, a prominent southern Negro leader, was fa- tally shot in the back in the driveway. of his home here early today. The 37-year-old Evers, who had been directing a massive civil disobedience campaign against racial discrimination in the Mississippi capital city, died 15 minutes later in University Medical Centre. Evers was shot as he stepped out of his car after returning home from an integration rally. Evers staggered to the kit- chen door and collapsed.

"There should be some action in this session on effective civil rights legislation. To this end I will devote my best efforts." Senate Democratic Leader Mike Mansfield predicted: "We'll have civil rights legisla- tion at this session and it looks like we will be in session for the remainder of the year." But from a southern Demo- crat came warnings of filibuster and violence. "Tf the president tries to en- force his legiSlative proposals I think it will mean violence," said Senator Allen J, Eliender, Louisiana Democrat. "The threat I just heard to- night that the Negroes will lie in the streets if there is a fili- buster--which there will be--will mean a lot of bloodshed. I'm sorry this is what is in store-- more violence, bloodshed with- out question." Leader Fatally Shot "I heard children screaming," said Young. "I ran out and found Mr, Evers lying down with blood all over his clothes." Evers, a native of Decatur, Miss., had been Mississippi field secretary for. the National As- sociation for the Advancement of Colored Péople for the last nine years, M. B. Pierce, Jackson chief of detectives, called the slaying "most unfortunate." "We had men detailed to all their meetings trying to pre- vent any violence, whatever. We will do everything possible to apprehend the guilty party or parties." Pierce invited agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation to assist with the investigation. In New York, Roy T. Wilkins, executive secretary of the NAACP, was shocked at the news of Evers' death. Wilkins said the NAACP was posting a $10,000 reward for Evers' assassin.
