dered different by your contem-
poraries, then resI assured OF oe-
long to a minority, and the odds
are that sooner or later you will
be treated like one
But some minorities in this big
country have one important differ
ence that distinor'
others. For example. if you are a
Seventh Day Adventist and suf-
fer discrimination, you can stop
being a Seventh Day Adventis by
joining another, more accepted re-
ligion.
A Negro cannot stop being q
Negro. A Japanese cannot stop be-
ing a Japanese. These minorities
are inf1exible, immoble. They have
not ever the unwanted protection
Of oblivion, of disappearing into
the social mass and losing their
minority identity.
Of these immobile minorities,
the one with the greatest number
of barriers erected against him in
this country is the Negro. We can
take the Negro as an example be-
cause his numbers are greatest,
because the determinations Whicb
he suffers are more varied in kind,
degree and intensity. but not be-
cause the roots of this discrimina-
ton are different in cause, nature
or cure from the discrimination
against other minorities. They are
the same.
And whatever the superficial diff
! ferences between the attitudes of
the minorities land some Chinese
restaurants, for example, refuse to
serve Negroes, just as certain Ne
| gro-owned enterprises have been
known to jim crow whites) their
/ goals and ends must coincide and
become the same. The 18th, 14th,
and 18th amendments to the Con-
| stitution. as well as the Federal
Civil Rights Act, were passed in
the high hope of protecting a min
ority which was at that time al
most helpless. These amendments
by the Wav, came into being as a
result of the uncompromising act
/ ivities of a despised minority the
political minority of hard-bitten
abolitionists.
But the same battle for right
and justice which led to the ex-
/ plicit enactment into law of these
principles continues to this day.
And this is a battle for not only
I the Negro but for all minorities. 1t
is a part of our common task to
| combat discrimination wherever ii
appears and against whomever il
is directed. Legal action is only
one part of the picture. We must
/ always remember that the most
fertile breeding ground for anti
minority sentiment is fear. II
people feel, however irrationally
that their jobs or income are
threatened by a minority, then the
ground is prepared for the seeds
of hatred. And so we must all work
toward a world of peace and plen-
", one which provides psycholo-
gical security, political stability
social security and economic alb
undance for all.

We 100000 Negroes in America
are not alone in the dubious enjoy
ment Of the status Of a minority.
From the earliest days of Ameri-
can history, the very settlers who
came here to escape persecution in
turn prosecuted minorities among
them.
In Massachusetts,, Roger Will
Jams was expelled for dissension.
In Salem witches were burned.
Quakers. Catholics, Jews, Luther
ans. Moravians. Baptists and athe-
lists were all victims Of prejudice
in one colony OF another. In 1856
when great numbers Of Irish were
immigrating to this country to es-
cape hunger in their homeland the
Irish and Catholics were the scrape
goats. Later il was each success
i've wave Of immigrants-Poles
Italians. Slavs. Jews and Russians
Today the National Conference
OF Christians and Jews found in
recent surveys that 10 per cent OF
the people in this country would
join in a hate campaign against
the Jews; that nine per cent
thought the Catholics were a mel
ace to the country. Out of more
than 1000 cases handled by the
Fair Employment Practice Com
mittee, there were 25S cases OF
discrimination against Jews. "a a.
gainst Seventh Day Adventists, %
against Jehovah's Witnesses. 4

ainst Chinese, 2 against Japanese

one nation or another. And the
FEPC did not of course, uncover
all cases.
No, we ire not alone. There are
many. many minorities in this ma

Engineers Report on
I Adequate Wiring Tests

! When the rooster compromises
your reputation by producing a
isoggy, debated cake, or the toaster
takes forever to brown a piece OF
bread, don't grind your teeth and
pitch invectives at the manufac-
turer. Chances are your electrical
wiring is inadequate for the de-
mands being made upon it. The
| chances are the wire is too small
to give your appliances enough
electricity to perform efficiently.
So state electrical engineers and
wiring technicians who have sift-
ed the results Of thousands OF
tests and devoted years OF study
to the development of adequate
wiring systems for every electrl-
cal need.

In tests to determine the rela-
tive efficiency Of appliances and

WHAT E WRONG WITH TR0JAN5, I5
 COAST QUESTION
By RUso NEWMAN

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 18. = Footballs universal question on the west coast today is: what's wrong with the University of Southern California Trojans?
 This is the team that was the preseason crI.ce of practically every picker to win the conference championship and visit the Rose Bowl for the fourth consecutive time.
 From a 206-man turnout, coach Jeff Cravath counted the noses of some 45 lettermen, in fact when it came time to trim the squad to league regulations it was foredoom- ed that some of the lettermen would be relegated to minor roles.
 Results on the field of competi- tion have been disappointing and disheartening. The Trojans won from Washington State, 13-7; lost to Ohio State, 21-0, and to Oregon State 60. The current collection masquerading as football players is so far removed from the terrible Trojans of old the comparison is ridiculous
 It is apparent that coach Cra- vath thus far has been unable to find the proper combinations that go to make up winning team. The talent is there. The coaching strategy is adequate. But the win ming type of football is lacking. The University of Washington will test the Trojan power tomorrow in Los Angeles

 Washington's Huskies and the University of Southern California Trojans, each beaten once in the Conference, tangle tomorrow at Los Angeles, with slight odds on the Trojans. Cruising 235-pound full back Arnie Weinmeister of the fluskies may be held on the bench because of hurt knee. The Tro- jans have sidelined left halfback Don Doll, a usual starter, whose leg was injured in scrimmage. Don Gaflin got the nod to replace him.
