operation he wants.
To Probe Status
He is going to find out what
agencies and organizations in the
city are concerned with inter-racial
and inter-cultural improvements,
observe their procedure, and then
implement their job and work with
them through an active inter-racial
committee.
I think Humphrey is going to
offer the challenge to local groups,
and if they fail, the blame can
be laid to their own apathy and
inaction.
He also put his finger on the
sore-spot that has caused trouble
numerous times in larger cities, and
may ultimately cause it in the
smaller towns. 1t is Humphreys
idea that each policeman walking
beat in each individual neighbor-
hood, can be an invaluable aid to
peaceful and harmonious COM
munity relationships if he is aware
of the problems of the people in his
district.

officers in Minneapolis to be little

SELF" the Mayor said. 81 have some
very definite ideas about it, and I
think it's very important that they
be trained to handle any difficult
situations that may arise"
Alteration Started Riot
He wants to work closely with
Chief of Police Edward Ryan on
this, and I hope he can. 1t was a
minor alteration between a white
policeman and Negro serviceman
that set off the spark leading to
the disturbances in Harlem two
summers ago.
1 won't forget the morning after
the riots when I walked through
block after block of shattered store
fronts and debris-piled sidewalks.
Hundreds of thousands of dollars
worth of destruction, and irrepar-
ably-ruined businesses resulted be-
cause one policeman gave in once
too often to the rule of violence
first, questions later.
It is Mayor Humphreys idea, and
one which has been proven by facts,
that policeman patrolling a beat
in neighborhood populated mostly
by an underprivileged minority
group, can either be friend or
foe of the people, depending upon
how much he understands of the
Illustrations, wants and needs. Once
he has an understanding of these
factors, he can understand the an
tagonisms against him.
In New York, the need has been
recognized but so far nothing has
been done about it. l think Mayor
Humphrey believes Minneapolis can
take the lead and point the way.
No Special Consideration
He also believes, and strongly,
that when an individual has broken
the law, civil or criminal, he de-
serves to be punished accordingly.
Humphrey does not believe in
special consideration for special
groups.

office, as far as I'm concerned he's

Brightness of spirit, the discerning
wisdom, and the belief in taking a
man for what he is, we are going
to hear more of him in future years.
He is refreshing newcomer on

The idea that matter Is COM
posed of small particles which
cannot be divided further is at
least 1000 years old. Ancient
scientists and philosophers pom
dered the existence OF atoms.
although they lacked labora-
tories for testing their theories.
To prove the existence or the
atom was not even attempted
until a century ago.
The Latin-p Lucretius
wrote a poem about atoms In
the year SO r. c.
However, scientists agree
that atomic research Is still In
its infancy. Boy, what q baby!
IN 1905, a young patent office
L clerk in Switzerland developed
a theory which involved the
idea that under certain condi-
tons matter could be changed
into energy and energy into
matter. According to that
theory, a very small amount OF
matter could produce tremen-
dous quantities of energy. This
has become the basic principle
for atomic power. Yet science
ignored this theory for IS years.
