Koch:

I have no idea. I'm not really involved with the NAACP.

Q:

Do you recall whether the march in Washington took place before or after the second election for the district leadership?

Koch:

I think it took place before. I just don't really remember but my recollection would be that it took place before -- not the second election; it would be the first election. You said the second election?

Q:

Yes.

Koch:

The second election took place in ‘64, and the march in WAshington was ‘63. But what I'm saying is: I think it took place even before the first election -- I'm not sure.

Q:

Obviously the VID membership was very enthusiastic about the civil rights issue.

Koch:

Q:

And still is. What about the rest of the Democratic constituents on the party district?
