vealed in the Harvard '95 Book.
Il had been out of college and

plunged in to contend their full
equality in all things, govern

Such a revolutionary program
launched nearly fifty years ago
found him treading the wine
press almost alone. His allies are
many today, but in 1900 it was
almost TROTTER AGAINST
THE UNITED STATES OF AM
ERICA The japanese are
credited with throwing the ap-
pie of discord into the Ver-
sailles Peace Conference by de-
manding the equality of races.
Trotter, an unofficial envoy of
world peace was present at YER

japanese for recognition of
equality of races. His risking

The prevalent, conflicting dates
of activities is a deplorable con-
dition Seldom a night, or a Sun
day afternoon, but there are from
two to dozen different activities
in which many would like to par
ticipate, and more would like to
attend Everybody seems to want
to run program, and it is next
to impossible to get clear date.
The world is in a condition which
l call frenzied, and is constantly
expanding man-made programs
along all lines. The current spirit
of initiation reminds me of toy
balloon, which a boy buys at a
circus, or a carnival You know
what happens to that when it gets
too big. Well that is what is going
to happen to mans present pro-
gram all over the earth. When he
realizes, as he must realize, that
he cannot work out things in his
way, and that his civilization has
grown top-heavy, then he must
give up in despair, and let the
Spirit of Christ take over. Mean
while. several local clubs are try
ing to cooperate in the establish
ment of a sort of clearing for
dates, and mutual cooperation in
promotion Of activities. The idea
is not a new one, as Clarence
Cameron White had that in mind
for one of the purposes of the or
iginal S. ColeridgeTaylor Musical
Association, and I tried to get the
recognized unit to aodpt it. How
ever, it looks to me like the pres
ent plan is going to get some

nation of the world is inevitable.

Just try belonging to certain
minority groups in certain parts

When you need an operation,
or your wife is having a baby,
you expect medical care and hos
pitalization. If there is a short
age Of such services. you expect
at least the same chance at get
ting them that any other person
has.
Now let's go along with the Re-
port of the Presidents Committee
on Civil Rights and chew on the
real facts.
Racial groups, such as Chinese,
Japanese and colored get health
services far below average. AS
usual, colored people provide
the most glazing example of such
discrimination.
Colored folks constitute ten
percent of the Nations popula-
ton, but available to them are
only enc percent Of the hospital
beds = only $4,000 out of $780,
900 beds.
There is in America one ply
stefan to every 75O persons -
but there is only one colored
physician to every 3,377 colored
people.
OF the 5000 annual graduates
of medical school, only las are
colored. Those who are admitted
to medical and who do graduate
find It next to impossible to get
internships and hospital facili-
ties.
This is the pattern Of all types
Of health services for many
minority groups. The result is
what might be expected
The death rate in the Nation
is 10.5 percent. For Chinese it
is 1875, for colored and Indians
100, for Japanese lis.

men Indians ten times as
much. The same is true of many
other diseases that come
through inadequate medical
care.
White men live to an average
age of So, colored men to only
50 - white women average 81
years, colored women only So.
The infant death rate shows
similar contrast.
Our Nations capital sets a bad
example for the rest Of us. In
four Of Washington's twelve
private hospitals colored are not
admitted. The rest admit only
a few segregated wards al
though the hospitals enjoy tax
exemption. Says the Presidents
Committee, ct is peculiarly
shocking to find church hospitals
practicing discrimination"
In Washington, Gallinger Hos
pital, supported by public funds
and with most of its patients
colored, bars colored physicians
from practice. Neither can col,
ored doctors practice in st. Eliz-
abeth's, although 1t is federal
hoSpitall
Other public services work to
the disadvantage of minority
groups. There are no racial bars
in old age survivor insurance,
unemployment compensation,
etc. Yet they fail to cover agri-
cultural, domestic, and self-em-
ployed workers. 1t need not sur
prise us by now to learn that
racial minorities = Mexicans,
colored, Japanese are hardest
hit by this exemption.
What to do? We must work
vigorously through our unions
or through other progressive or
CARNATIONS to get up Fair Health
Practice laws in our states we
must insist that no government
support and no tax exemption
go to institutions and services
that practice discrimination.
Such action, the Commit tee tells
us, is necessary as we carry on
the fight ito secure these rights
