What the AJP Papers Say—
An AJP Feature
Serving the Community
The American Association of
English-Jewish Newspapers con
tinues as a symbol of the essen
tial work done by a devoted group
of newspapermen in Jewish com
munities across the nation. Theirs
is the task of gathering informa
tion significant to Jews every
where. In carrying out these du
ties, publishers of English-Jew
ish newspapers perform an in
valuable service to our country,
which respects all opinion as the
Voice of America — whether it
stems from the majority or the
minority. Above all, theirs is a
free press dedicated to keeping
the Jewish communities they
serve informed, aware and unit
ed in their actions as Americans
and Jews.

White Supremacy
Desegregation is a slow, pain
ful process. Prejudices — nursed
through generations and accepted
by a society that has written for
itself an unchangeable code of
ethics and behavior — makes it
so. And the whilst it professes a
devout belief in the fatherhood
of God, it ordains neatly sepa
rate niches for the brotherhood
of men. In a sense, then, we
have, here in America, a caste
system not unlike that of the
slave civilizations, when the
masses were subjected to the
whims and fancies of over-lords;
their opportunities restricted or
totally withheld; their quest for
knowledge suppressed; their
pleasure time regulated; their
lives patterned. Yet—in our self-
deception, and quite earnestly—
we claim that the Negro enjoys
wonderful advantages here: he
may move freely among us in
the streets, engage in whatever

occupation he desires, earn a de
cent wage and strive for a meas
ured status of competence. Just
so he keeps in his place. In his
ghettoized schools and colleges,
his restricted community areas,
his places of amusement and re
creation. We fully agree that the
“Negro problem” is not exclu
sively the South’s. It is nation
wide. It cannot be solved by law
—unless enforced. As long as we
lay the unction to our own souls
that we are friend—even though
not brother—to the man of dark
er skin, we prostitute the divine
command: ‘‘Thou shalt love thy
neighbor as thyself.”

The recent debate in the UN
Security Council on the Ham-
marskjold Arab-Israel peace mis
sion has proved one thing beyond
all shadow of doubt, and that is
that peace between Israel and
the Arab countries is today as
far off as ever.
