More About
Public Relations
BY RUTH TAYLOR

Probably l do harp too much
on public relationship in time
of turmoil such as this, good
public relations job is necessary
for any group. Two incidents have
happened recently which to com
pletely represent what I've been
driving at, that I'm going to go
back to my favorite subject.
Last week there was a hold-up
in New York subway train.
There was story about il in all
the papers, but there was one
phase of it which was particular
~ interesting to me. Two Negroes
held up white mani read that
far and groaned thinking of how
long it takes to make people drop
the discriminatory adjective. And
then l read further. Out of the
entire carful of passengers just
one man had courage to come to
the aid Of the man attacked-and
he was a Negro. The papers did
give him due credit for a brave
and unselfish act and the story
was well told.
But what impressed me most
was the way in which that one
manly doing the right thing
had counteracted the actions of
two of his own race. Right there
and then he did a good public
relations job for all Negroes. When
he took a stand against lawless-
ness, he took that stand for all of
his race-and he proved the fall
lacy of congratulations against any
group as a whole because of the
acts of a few. Not all of the pa
pers mentioned his name-but
that, to my mind was unimportant.
because they all mentioned the
fact that a Negro came to the as
sistance of a white man against
two Negroes. That was good pub
hcity.
Next was story about the
Booker T. Washington and its
already famous skipper. A labor
man I know called me up and
read me one account of the voy-
age and then said, That's the
first time ever heard of a skip
per who was working to help his
men get promotion (referring to
the classes Captain Mulzac has
started.." He added, MY hat is
off to that man. He's the kind of
captain we want today"
1 doubt if Captain Mulzac ever
thought of what he did as a pub
lie relations job-but it was. He
didn't try to make the most of
new authority or quickly attain
ed newspaper fame. He just went
right ahead doing good job and
being thoughtful and considerate
Of others on their way up. But
he did a job for all his race.
That is what public relations is
creating better understanding, and
selling the public on the good
which so far outweighs the evil.
Remember your group is judged
by YOU-so be a good advertise
lnent at all times.
