It is race hatred, a danger which has been both clear and present since the Civil War. The time is not far off when America may be forced to act against such conspira¬ tors against democracy and freedom.” Negro voters in the South, Mr. White indicated, could be depended upon to give substan¬ tial support to driving out the Dixie demagogugues. “A million Negroes are qualified to vote WJIV RADIO SCHEDULE SUNDAY SCHEDULE 6:00—Stew On 6:00— Npws 6 ,1C >—Southland 6:30—Birds of Harmony 6:45—Ow«ns JuMlpers 7on—Qantborn wonders 7:15—Morning Stars 7$0—Hood will Slnrcers 45—Fishor’s Chapol Choir :00—Quartet Contest 8]:30—Church 00—Mavf lower of Christ.

We fight not only to free the Negro from bondage but white from the moral slavery which results from artificial based on race, creed or national origin.

The lawyers agreed, with the concurrence of state leaders of the Association, upon for attacking racial segregation in (11 nuhiic education, (2) transportation with emphasis on local streetcars and buses r3) health, bousing and atJonal facilities. <4) public gatherings and (5) all places of pubic, accommodation where ever any such segregation is romiirer) hv «tate constitions and statutes, local ordinances, public or private regulations.

Thp fight against Jim Crow travel on the local level ineludes action against segre¬ gated waitine rooms and rest¬ aurants, ir> train stations gud airports. legal precedents al¬ ready available in the school eases may also be applied in the fields of health, bousing and recreation, the lawyers agreed.

Human Relations the Issue The issue in America, Dr. Bleak said, is not of race, but rather of human relations. “Those who stand for true brotherhood among all men have to recognize that the col- ored pepole are not merely asking for equal rights to edu-: cation and employment, adequate, to de-i cent housing and medical care,” the New Yorker | I asserted. “The colored merelv pepole for the ars rijht ask-J ing not i to vote.” he said, “They are I asking for the rights of Ameri-| cans.

Desplte continuing discrim¬ ination and segregation, Dr. Mays saw a “new South emerg¬ ing in the area of human rela¬ tions ” He contrasted the conditions prevailing in the South of his youth with those of toaay and cited the forces which had brought significant changes in this region. Fore¬ most among these, he indicat¬ ed, has been tne NAACP which devised an effective way “to achieve more- freedom and jus¬ tice through the federal courts.” “The Negro himself,” the Georgia educator said, “is more determined to become a first class citizen” but not deter¬ mined enough. “If the deter¬ mination is to be measured by the number of Negroes who are willing to pav for their free¬ doms by fighting through the orderly process of the law and courts and by paying for it by contributing annual!-/ to or¬ ganizations like the NAACP and the Southern Regional Council, the determination is not vefy strong.” But those of us “who are de¬ termined to make America and the South the greatest citadel of democracy on earth and who believe that a Christian de¬ mocracy is best, for us and for all peoples, better for us than faoism. nazlsm or communism, will continue the fight; con¬ vinced that time, the universe and even God, fight on our side.” The South, Dr. Mays noted, has not, voluntarily moved for- . _ ward. Only in compliance w'th court o’-dec'- did it extend the ballot to the Negro, abandon segregated dining cars, equalize teachers salaries, onen its pro- fessional and graduate .schools to Neero students, and expand its anDropriatlons for education of Negco youth c***-** Frie idship of Colored Nations Color discrimination and seg- °regption is costing America the friendship and support of I a billion and-a-haif colored ______ world peoples throughout the Mr. friends Willkie attending told delegates the session. jmd “If these people.” youno- W'"- kie said, “loin the Soviet side worldZeadersbin we'"veil for ZselveZ antolated island', find a garrison ......... — state in a S'ovie f Com- munist-dominated world, it _ they ioin our side we. in turn, placed in n dominant nn- sition — a position in which vp can much more easily isolate the Russians.

Of course there are other questions such as the right to earn a living, the right to housing, the right to vote and all of the gener-( al problems which we have been facing all these years which are in the background. But in order to reach these issues' they must face the immediate problem of either being coin pelled to serve in the military branch of our government or to complete their education." To these problems, the youth speakers, Waited Carrington, president of the NAACP chap¬ ter at Harvard, and Aibin Krebs of Mississippi, adlress- ed themsel.ves. Both hailed the fight of the Association to break down ‘barriers against the co-education of Negro and white youth. "The constant assault by the Association upon the twin an¬ omalies of democracy—segrega¬ tion and second-class citizen¬ ship -Ji as done much to as¬ sure Negro youth that the American dream need no lon¬ ger be the American night¬ mare,” Mr. Carrington assert¬ ed. “It is no longer true that if his skin is black he must go, to a. segregate! school to receive his education. The brilliant battles that we have won in the courts of our land are making it an ana¬ chronism to speak of ‘white’ ' colleges. What has been ac¬ complished on the graduate school level will inevitably be duplicated on the undergrad¬ uate level throughout the! southland.” Mr. Krebs told how he came to write the editorial in the student paper advocating the admission of Negro students to 'he University of Mississippi. His early experiences led him to the conclusion that “all Ne¬ groes, all-white-skinned per¬ all human beings, belong to a free society In which op¬ portunity is unlimited and of skin is not that op¬ sole qualifying fac¬ 1 J 1 DJTAL 2-2946 FRI—SAT.

This is said to be the first time in the history of Atlanta that such an escort lias been provided a Negro.
