it had drafted with the assistance
of the Attorney-General's office.
1t sought the adjustment of seq
regation in the states National
Guard. The first of the Commits
sion's series of factual reports
The Negro Worker" proved its
value in influencing the minds Of
many Minnesota employers. Other
studies were made on Negro hous-
ing, the Indian and the Mexican.
In addition five pamphlets were
released on various phases Of race
relations in Minnesota. Well over
one hundred thousand pieces Of
this literature have been distrib-
uted over the State and across the
nation, requests for them having
been received from every state in
the union.
A systematic statewide pro-
gram of education on problems of
minority groups Is being effec-
lively carried out by the Commits
sion's International Representa-
tive, Clifford e. Rucker. He is the
first Negro ever to be employed
by the state of Minnesota in this
capacity. In addition to preparing
the publications, Mr. Rucker
travels extensively over the state
speaking before colleges. luncheon
clubs, schools and civic organiza-
tons. He is often the first Negro
to appear in some Of these locali-
ties. He has been well received in
all of these communities and has q
growing list of speaking engage
ments over the state.
The Governors Interracial Com
mission maintains an office at
lit University Avenue in st. Paul
and all of its publications and
services are extended to citizens
Of Minnesota without charge.
While there is concrete evidence
that race relations have been
steadily improving in Minnesota,
there Is still a vast amount Of edu-
cational work which must be done.
The doors of many industrial
plants are stin closed TO Negroes
and other minority groups. There
are still some violations Of the
Equal Rights statute. Prejudice
continues 70 be a prime factor in
housing. Negroes cannot yet be-
come members of the National
Guard Of this state. As long as
these conditions exist, democracy
is not a fun reality in Minnesota
1t is the hope Of the Governors
Interracial Commission that the
decision as handed down by Chief
Justice fancy in the bred Scott
VI Sanford case is a far cry from
today's reality and that here in
Minnesota Every man has rights
which other men are bound to re-
speet."

bred Scott, a Negro slave was
taken by his master from Mis-
souri,, a slave state, to Illinois, a
free state, and thence to Minmeso-
Ia territory where slavery was for
hidden by the Missouri Comprom-
Use of 1920. Subsequently bred
Scott was brought back to Mis-
souri,, and in 1916 he began his
suit in the State Circuit court to
obtain his freedom, on the ground
that he became free when taken
into free territory.
The Supreme Court, under
Chief Justice fancy held that
bred Scott was not a citizen of
the United States or of the State
of Missouri and therefore not COM
petent to sue in the Federal
courts.
Ninety-twO years have passed
since that memorable case and
1t would seem significant that
the plaintiff In that case was a
Negro who for a time was a
resident Of the territory now
known as Minnesota. During
those ninety-two years, great
changes IN attitudes and prac-
tees have come about.
Minnesota was granted state
hood In 1858, just three years
prior to the outbreak of the Civil
War and in the very first article
of its constitution appear the
words, mo member of this state
shall be disfranchised or deprived
of any of the rights or privileges
secured to any citizen thereof, I'M
less by the law of the land, or in
the judgement Of his peers" AS
early as 1886 an Equal Rights
statute designed to protect
Negroes from racial discrimina-
ton in public places Of accommo-
dalton was enacted and there have
since been statutes enacted pro-
hibiting discrimination in civil
service, housing, insurance and on
public work contracts. 1t is pub
lie policy in this State to recognize
the right Of all qualified citizens
to vote, to serve on juries, to fair
legal process in the courts and to
open the public schools Of this
state to all children regardless of
race, color, or religious affiliation.
Over the years many organiza-
tons have worked tirelessly to i'm
prove human relations in Mime
sofa Religious organizations, COM
munity centers, the Urban
Leagues, the NAACP and human
relations councils are but q few
Of the many groups devoting much
time and energy in this field. The
war years opened new avenues of
employment.
One agency which has contribu-
ted to the improvement of race re-
lations in Minnesota Is the Gov
ernors Interracial Commission.
This agency has conscientiously
sought first-class citizenship for
all minorities, including Negroes.
Established by former Governor
Edward J. Thye in December 1913,
the Commission has steadily made
its influence felt and is today
looked upon as an effective and
progressive organization actively
working in the race relations area.
Governor Luther w. Youngdahl,
a fearless and outspoken champion
of equality for all citizens has
given a great deal of effort to-
ward improving the welfare of all
citizens. The Governor has been

segregation and discrimination
