that Elizabeth Sutherland, Chairman of New York SNCC, |
a scheduled speaker at this memorial, was unable to

column three read in part as follows:
"The murderer of Leo Bernard is the same creature
which encourages murder in Mississippi, which keeps the
poor from controlling the anti-poverty programs, which
sustains discontent in Watts, which sends troops to the
Dominican Republic and Vietnam.
‘That creature is the octopus of international
racist capitalism with the U.S. at its head. The tentacles
of that octopus must be broken one by one." -
