ganization for the Legal De-

Advancement of Colored Peo¬
ple. Sharing the program with
Dr. Myrdal were Mrs. Franklin
D. Roosevelt, Bartley Crum, pub
Usher of the newspaper PM; Dr.
J\tlan Knight Chalmers, Walter
White and Roy Wilkins. Musi¬
cal numbers were rendered by
the baritone, Joseph James.
“Negroes are ' constantly
gaining” in their pursuit of lib¬
erty, Dr. Myrdal asserted. "T.iey
have always many of the best
whites fighting with them. They
M^Hcan fight wholeheartedly while
their adversaries 'have a split
•m?' ‘personality. They have not only
the law, but the national creed
on their side.” Gains are being
t made, Dr. Myrdal continued, in
iiit: spite of the fact that “the
'in treatment of the Negro people
'is America’s greatest and most
conspicuous scandal . . . For the
" cbfered peoples all over the
World whose rising influence is
akiomatic this scandal is salt
in their wounds.”
Cont inuing discrimination
” k'gainst Negroes “hurts our
leadership in world affairs
more than any other aspect of
American life,” Mrs. Roosevelt
jfald. “It is our most vulner¬
able spot and practically every
day we are attacked in inter-
tt&tional conferences because of
it While we now give world
leadership in the economic field
arid potentially in the military,
Wd will not achieve our destiny
uxitil we are able to give lead-
dfshlp in the moral and spirit¬
ual fields.”
Mrs. Roosevelt, an American
«h»lcgate to the United Nations,
said that the American cause
and prestige among foreign del-
egations were greatly enhane-
' c'u the
by recent Supreme Court

^
Mr. White asserted that in
the four short years since pub-
i. nation oi “An American DilCm-
’ much of its accurate find¬
ings has been outmoded by the

Miss Annie Bel1 Williams of
7^ , W- Wayne St, this city, has
; achieved the signal success of
having work published in “Tal-

ig47
Because of the wide acclaim
afforded many of our previous
books, as "Songwriters and
Poets of America,” “Ryme ’n
Rhythm,” and “Talent—Song¬
writers and Poets of Tomorrow,’
competition for a place in this
volume was very keen.
This volume met with such
an overwhelming respopnsc this
year that The Haven Press of
55 West 42nd street. New York
18, N. Y., is already planning
their volume for the fall. In
order to encourage the lesser-
known authors to endeavor to
attain their rightful place in
trie literary world, and to main¬
tain the pre-eminent status of
American literatuure and cul¬
ture, the publishers are offering
many fine awards for excel¬
lence, including publication on
a royalty basis of the work of
the best author in the volume.
Writers wishing to compete
for a place in the forthcoming
book should write the publish¬
ers for details. 1
