EMBREE HITS NEW
YORK JIM CROW

NEW YORK - CAMP - Color
still is a detriment in New York
and no less a person than Edwin
r. Embree, distinguished for his
long connection with the Rosen-
valid Fund and at present with
the Liberian company, is finding
that New York is not the cosmo-
politan world capital it believes
itself.
Recently in a lengthy letter to
the New York Times, Mr.. Embree
gets a whole lot off his chest. He
points out what has happened to
him when he had a non-white
person with him. Hotels, restaur-
ants and even his own college
club turned thumbs down on the
entertaining of a non-white per-
son.
II confess" Mr.. Embree writes,
II am shocked. Such prejudices
may have been excused so years
ago when America was a provin-
cial isolated nation and when few
Negroes-just a generation out of
slavery - had yet climbed to
places Of distinction. But this is
the middle Of the Goth century.
New York has become a great
international capital. the hub Of
the democratic world, the perma-
nent home Of the United Nations.
And while many American Ne
groes are still poor and hsrried,
many more are among our most
distinguished citizens.
There are Negro writers and
musicians, artists and scientists,
crOwding the very top Of every
walk Of life. And they are ladies
and gentlemen rs cultivated as
any NOrdics.'
They can transform the public
life of this city almost overnight
from petty provincialism to a
cosmopolitan climate worthy of
what we like to think Is the cap
ital Of the world"

President Urged
To Give Cabinet
Post to Negro

WASHINGTON - { AMP } -
President Truman was urged to
appoint a Negro to his cabinet
and at the same time allow many
Of his political opponents TO stew
in their own political juice" by
DR.. A. Powell Davies, pastor of
All Souls Unitarian church, white,
here last week. DR.. Powell's sug-
gestion was made because "Mr.
Truman can now refuse the
Establishments of those who
meant to defeat him because Of
the civil rights issue"
Il would like to see the Presi-
dent appoint at least one Ameri-
can Negro to his cabinet" the
minister said. ut would be a
demonstration to the world that
we mean what we say when we
speak of the equal rights Of free
men and Of the glories of de-
mocracy."
OF his opponents, DR.. Powell
said, These people are now tell
ing him that they have always
been his friends. President Tru-
man is an amiable man. He can
amiably leave these people to
stew in their own political juice"
On the issue Of world peace,
the minister pointed out that the
United States will not win peace
unless we give up the myth Of
white superiority. II we refuse
to give up, we shall learn some
day, even if we survive earlier
crises, how greatly we are out
numbered and how false our su-
periority has proved to be-"
All Souls church was among
the first congregations in the
country to endorse the reports of
the President S Civil Rights COM
mission. The American Unitarian
association, governing body Of the
denomination, also endorsed the
report at its annual meeting last
spring.

percent Of the residents in Stuy-

Negroes as tenants, If they pos
