Of May 80. 1913: This flood com
pletely demolished an entire city
Of $4,000 persons 5000 Of them
were Negroes. The emergency
housing OF these persons was a
problem which Portland had to
face in matter Of minutes. Ne
groes were housed in non-segre-
gated mass shelter. And several
hundred Negro families were in
yited to share homes Of white
Portlanders. IN administering the
mass shelter program. we work
ed closely with the American Red
Cross. The Red Cross carried
out a completely integrate pro.
gram without unfavorable Incl
dent. This action on the part OF
the Red Cross seemed to amaze
some OF its own workers. equally
IS much as It surprised observers.
One worker from Georgia or Mis-
sissippi-I seem to confuse those
two states was especially pleas
ant. Speaking with a decided
Southern accent, she told me that
in dozen years Of disaster work,
In all section Of the country. she
had never par ticipated in a plan
Of intcgratod housing. We were
particularly diligent In seeing that
this story was widely known. The
Interpretation carried proper COM
mendation for the Red Cross job.
We issued several newslettors,
press and radio releases and as
sisted In the preparation of two
full page news and picture stories.
Results: information on how Port.
land handled the emergency was
circulated Throughout the state and
the Nation. Concentrations pour

to feel proud and happy. Those
who stubbornly and loudly had
insisted it would not work were
freed into state of silence and
retreat.
2. The CLIO Convention, held
in portland, November, 1913: In
preparation for the Convention
CLIO elected a promise from the
Restaurant and Hotel Associations
that there would be no racial
discrimination for the duration of
the Convention. Many Negro de-
legates attended. They stayed In
hotels and ate in restaurants that
have maintained the color ban
from time immemorial. Results.
no harmful effects, no guests
walked out of any hotels. the
buildings did not disintegrate and
the sun continued to slime, as
often as the sun shines, in Prt-
land.
We Joined in commencing local
operators of public accommoda-
lions for their democratic action,
even though we realized they had
simply called a moratorium on
discrimination for one week. How
ever. since the moratorium, We
have pointed out to the commu-
nifty that decency and democracy
can work in the use of public ac
commodations. We are now able
to document our assertion with the
abvious proof that it did work.
EFFORTS TO cRYsTALIzE
GAINS
We believe that once a group,
organization, community, or state,
has been enlightened on demo-
cracy in race relations, it is i'm
portant that a policy relating to
democratic practices be made per-
manent. This has an important
psychological effect on those in
charge with the responsibility for
executing the policy. It also pro-
vides positive public rotations
material and serves to influence
other organizations to take sim
liar action. We have used this
technique successfully in Portland
