Dr. Carr pointed out
there are two general ways

compulsory regulation and sta¬

and necessary, but that the
contribution by governmental
action is immediately necessary
because “time is a factor in the
solution of the civil rights
problem.” In addition, many
nstances of the violation' of
civil rights involve local police
officials, and to correct this
according to the speaker, is a
matter of constitutional duty
by the federal government.
Prospects Good For Imple¬
mentation of Civil Rights

public lo follow through,” Dr
Carr saia.
Dr. Curr recommended the
.nuned.aie passage oi model
.eg.slat.on on civil rights, by
Congress, to apply to the City
of Washington, d. C. He said
that the Pres.dent’s Committee
.on ihat such legislation shoulu
outlaw segregation, eliminate
d ser.mination in health, hous¬
ing and employment facilities
. nd assure the exercise of lull
.ivil rights in public acccmmo-
..ations in the nation’s capital.
in this connection, Dr. Belle
Boone Beard, professor of soci-
ology at Sweet Briar college in
Virginia, said that model civil
rights legislation for Washing-
ion, D. C, would have strong
■demonstration value,” for it
would show to a somewhat
skeptical public that intelligent
:aws can be made to work.
Public Acceptance Predicted
Lr. Charles S. Johnson ob¬
served ihat, with the enact¬
ment of eiiective civil rights
legislation, it is reasonable to
expect puallc acceptance. He
sam that it is remarkable, and
,t has been repeatedly demon¬
strated, that “people can adjust
themseives to new social prac¬
tices as if things always were
as they are now.” He said that
new extensions of the aisermu-
nmory pattern should be as¬
sisted while old ones are being
attacked. While all ol these
gcais cannot be reached with
equal speed in all areas of the
country, Dr. Johnson predicted
ihat segregation in interstate
travel, me poll tax as a pre-
question oT
tion would be acted upon with¬
in the next year or two.
International Inip icatioas
Cedric Dover of Calcutta, In-
dia, visiting lecturer in
thrcpology at F.sk' university
observed the international an-
plications of the civil
issue. He said that the prop-
lem of India to achieve nation-
al self-determination has been
essentially the same problem as
that of the Negro in America
in obtaining civil rights and
equality of opportunity.
He characterized the problem
of race relations the world over
as a “problem of poverty and
repression.” The extreme pov-
erty of India was described as
the pioduct of Butish eontiol
and organization of India s
economy /’ which assumed the
iorm ol a huge .__ plantation , sys-
tern. This system, he said had
the natural
ot the land for outside capital
gain . and subordinated the peo-
• pies through- a 'system of re-
prvsNive taxation, * police con-
i irol, differential court treat-
lm ,i “" d >“ wic
! opinion.
Mr. Dover called upon Ne¬
groes in America to be more
“world minded,” and to make
use of India and other colored
nations as a bargaining agent
among the councils of world
powers. He recommended that
the methods used by India to
achieve political self-determi¬
nation be employed by the Ne¬
gro in America, and cited the
present instance of the fight
against racial segregation in
the armed forces as a case in
point.
Pan-American Situation
In compar.n-g the racial sit¬
uations in Brazil and the Unit¬
ed States, Dr. Emilio Willems
Sao Paulo, Brazil, professor o
sociology and anthropology
Universidate de Sao Paulo. tol<
the institute audience that pub¬
lic opinion in Brazil is consist
ently hostile to the practice o
racial segregation and discrim
ination, while in the Unite.
States, this practice frequent!
is supported by public op nioi
He said that although som
evidences of racial prejudice
and discrimination have re
cently appeared in Braz 1, pai
j ijc in the southern re
gion, B .. rin racial mixing and matin
i “officially recognized ana
sanctioned both by law and by
custom in Brazil.”
Dr Willems said the exist¬
ence of color prejudice and the
practice of rac.al discrimina¬
tion in the United States con¬
stituted an obstacle to build¬
ing hemispheric solidarity. He
said that the masses of colored
people in Brazil, particularly
mulattoes, are tearful of a pro¬
! gram of international coopera-

, cries of sem inar discussions
based on the nature of preju- l
dice Dr Rioch sajd that pre .
judice is a means used by in-
j ... , cure persons to raise their
de if-esteem. She pointed out,
However, that this is never sat¬
isfactory to the person in elim¬
inating feelings of insecurity
oecause “these people are some
■.ow aware that in derogating
another person they are alse
derogating themselves.” This
process was described as simi¬
lar to “pouring water into a
bucket with a hole in it.” The
more a person used prejudice
is a device for relieving feel-
ngs of insecurity, the more he
bad to continue to do so; and
at the same time, according to
:ie New York psychiatrist, the
acre dissatisfaction accumu-
ates over the process because
f ’ts suspected inadequacy.
This process operates, accord¬
ing to Dr. Rioch, in the obvious
i '-sis of oeople who contin¬
ue to say to themselves that
• it,- not nersonally preju¬
diced against Negroes and Jews
“They say this,” he said, ‘to
naim-am their self-esteem, foi
hey know basically that they
need to convince themsclvc:
of a fact about themselves
which they know is not true.
In this way, many parent:
teach their children prejudiced
attitudes, Dr. Rioch pointed
out. Through gesture, voice-
tene, innuendo and implication
many children develop preju¬
dices from parents who do not
actively or verbally enunciaU
mch attitudes,” the speaker
emphasized.
With regard to the earh
foundations of prejudice, Dr
Rioch’ said that “conventional
taboos of culture arc conveyer
to the child so early that he
conforms to the demand, in or
der t0 avoid anxiety ' lon ' a b ’ : '
I lore he has developed the ca-
| pacity for critical judgment
“Acceptance of the taboo aga:ns ;
another racially designator
group occurs because the ch ; l,
accepts patterns of behavio
conveyed by the parents and
experiences anxiety if the ta-
is broken,” the speaker as-
sorted.

roup prejudice as
psychiatry.” This effort, he
tained, proposes to study
ndividual, not simply as a
lon, but rather in the
mental relationships he
tains with other persons in
•ociety.
The speaker said that a
nant theme in anti-Negro
udice is the recurring
if the Negro male as a power¬
ful, dominant sexual Figure
and the Negro female as
able, accessible and satisfying
’This is a consistent
theme of conflict in the

He described this process
one of “fitting people into

or Jew, Dr. Ginsburg
thus become somewhat
logical distortions of of

and fears to which the
Jew, as such, are not
all related.

Fat Salvage Augments ,
Recovery Program
“Europe was the major area
of destination for our exports of
fats and oils In 1947, accounting
for 61 percent of total ship-
ments,” says Charles E. Lund,
U. S. Department of Commerce
Chief of Fats, OUb and Rice Di¬
vision, in his annual report.
European countries, ravaged
by years of war, are still des¬
perately in need of fats and oils.
American women can augment the
recovery program by saving and
selling used kitchen grease to
their meat dealers. After process¬
ing, these used fats are reused
for industrial purposes, substi¬
tuting for edible food fats and
oils and making more food fats
available for export.'

16 Yr. Old Boy Escapes
From Slavery

virtual slaves, according to the
boy’s story. Most of them
were white criminals convict¬
ed to prison, whose freedom
had been bought by the own¬
er.
The farm operator carried a
rifle and a pistol and had 13
oloodhounds on the farm Wil¬
de ms said he had seen the own-

:onvicts when they tried to n*
cape.
Williams considered himself
lucky in making his own es¬
cape. He slipped out through
the only window In the hayloft
where he slept. The doors
vere kept locked at night when
be went to bed. After slipping
,lwa -V Horn the farm he got a

‘ lriver chan Se a tire.
Williams navor remembered
living anywhere else but or
this farm. The estate of 56”
acres, he said, was owned by
parish official,
The boy appears to be old-
er than 15. Although husky
an d well built, he is not in good
health, according to a physic-
ian here, because of poor diet
