FIRST LADY PRAISES
MIXED HOSPITAL:
EXPLAINS POSITION

NEW YORK, Sept. 12.-(ANP)
At a press conference held on
the roof of Sydenham hospital,
Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt expressed
the opinion that 'you can legislate
on matters involving the rights Of
citizenship and the elimination of
discrimination against the citizen
ship rights of a group will even
tually be followed by the elimina-
tion of social inequality"
Mrs. Roosevelt, visiting Harlem
for the third time this year, had
just completed an inspection of
the History 100 per cent inter-
racial hospital tour arranged
to coincide with the 52-year-old
institutions drive for $35O,OOO.
Harlem reporters were among
her most enthusiastic questionefs.
For the most part, their inquiries
were based on daily newspaper re-
ports in which Mrs. Roosevelt was
quoted as saying:
"Much that is said about my
attitude on the Negro question is
distorted and exaggerated by peo-
pie who are opposed to my husband
and me, and by those who have
deep rooted prejudices. | have
never advocated social equality.
"In democracy, however, we
cannot have 100000 people who
are denied rights as citizens"
In celebrating on the reports,
Mrs. Roosevelt said:
"The newspapers did not print
all of my letter to Mrs. Catherine
Stallworth, of Evergreen, Ala.
The daily bulletin. [volume] (Dayton, Ohio) 1942-1946, 1944-09-12
Tvesdoy, September II, 1914

However, social equality is per-
sonal thing and you just can't legls-
late that. Social equality to me is
what you have among friends.
Mrs. Roosevelt also expressed
the opinion that sho considered II
a mistake in the past to permit
large numbers of one nationality
or race to settle in "little isolated
islands," The war is doing much,
she added, to balance American
communities with respect to types
of population, but that she would
not advocate moving groups against
their will in order to achieve the
balances which in time would meet
many of today's population prob
lens.
Mrs. Roosevelt praised the Sy-
denham hospitals board of trustees
which now numbers six Negroes
and 18 whites. "That is my idea OF
democracy in action" she said.
