outside speakers for our monthly
meetings, and by making available
to other groups, representatives

the Christian Friends as well as the
general public may become better
informed about existing conditions
in race relations and stimulated
to do something about these con-

news items gathered from various
ing meetings to be held in Seattle
which have to do with racial re-
lations. Our latest educational pro-
ject is speakers panel of an in
terracial group of young people,
which is called the American Con-
versations." We also help the
churches secure soloists for Sun
day morning services.
Problems of Discrimination
But besides our social and ed
ucational program, we are con-
cerned with the solution of specific
problems of discrimination which
are caused by prejudice. We have
an Anti-Discrimination Committee,
a Committee on Restrictive Cove
nants and Community Attitudes
and a Legislative Committee. each
working in its own area to improve
conditions We have cooperated
with other agencies in bringing
restaurants and other places of
public accommodation, in the
policies of auto insurance compa-
MES, in employment opportunities.
Our members worked actively in
helping to bring about passage of
the state law against discrimination
in employment For years we have
been concerned about racial re-
strictions in local cemeteries. and
have been in continuous commune
cation with cemetery owners. Re-
Gently one of the cemeteries has
announced that 1t intends to change
its policy, to make all burial plots
available without discrimination
At the present we are intensifying
our work on this problem, in the
hope that other cemeteries may
follow suit. We also send many
letters to legislators and other per-
sons in places of authority, in or
der to exert what influence we can
for more democratic practices.
These are some of the general
areas in which we are working. We
are not professional" people. We
come from all walks of life. But
we are bound together in a COM
mon work because we share a
common ideal. We have an office
at 5145 Arcade Building and we
wish that you would stop in and
get better acquainted.

BY MARY LUND,

Executive Secretary, CFRE
The Christian Friends for Racial
Equality is group of Seattle
people who believe that one of
the most effective ways of over
coming racial prejudice is through
the formation of personal friend
ships across group lines. We be-
lieve that even though it's of great
Importance to know peoples prob
lens, it's of greater value to know
the people themselves, because
with acquaintance comes mutual
appreciation, and the problems
just automatically begin to dis
appear. Therefore, the unique
feature of our organization Is the
emphasis that we place on social
activities. We close each monthly
meeting with a social hour, when
we have tea and cookies and con-
versation, and members and visit
ors become better acquainted We
also have certain annual occas-
ions-a Mothers Day Tea, mid
summer picnic. mid-winter pot
luck dinner, and concert. Then
there are many other smaller in
formal affairs, sometimes in
churches, but more often in homes
We constantly stress the getting
together in each others homes, be-
cause that's when we begin to
realize that we're not so different
after all.
Social Contact Necessary
Occasionally the criticism is
made that it's too bad that such an
artificial method must be employed
to make people acquainted with
members of other races; that con-
facts should come in a more nat
ural way To this we reply that it
certainly is too bad that society
is so segregated that most people
don't have natural contacts; but
since this is so, then manufacture
ed contact is all the more neces-
sary, and the good thing about it
is that the artificial contact soon
becomes a naural one, as real
friendships grow.
Mrs. Steinmetz, Founder
The CFRE was organized in 1912
with a charter membership of IT,
and under the energetic and de-
voted leadership of its founder,
Mrs. Edith Steinmetz, a former
missionary to the Philippines, its
membership has grown to more
than 700. Mrs. Steinmetz moved
recently to San Diego, California,
and the new president of the
christian Friends" is Miss Violet
Rudd, missionary under the Wash
ington State Baptist Headquarters.
Financially, the program is sup
ported by voluntary contributions
made by members and other
friends. Anyone who is willing to
sign our statement of purpose is
welcome to work with us.

The
 G.adGe RoeGe4
By Mildred Kirkpatrick

One of the most amazing news items was brought to my attention today. A request was made by Miss Helen Case, sec retary at Jesse Lee Home, to inform the people of Seward "in a nice way that the gardens at Jesse Lee Home are private property.
 Every mouthful of food that is not raised and preserved from the farm and gardens at Jesse Lee must be purchased. This adds considerably to the ex- pense of operating the home.
 Miss Case tells me that the little boys at the Home have to stand guard in shifts to protect their garden from vandals and from pilfering by townspeople, some of them prominent people. The boys are now taking down license numbers of cars whose passengers are observed taking radiSheS, onions and other small stuff from the garden.
 It seems hard to believe that anyone would deliberately pilfer from this garden any more than they would steal from their neighbors. There is no doubt that the Jesse Lee Garden is well kept and the vegetables are tempting, but let's refrain from depriving those youngsters of the benefit of their labors and the natural pride they have in the raising of fine vegetables,
 It is unfair, unjust, illegal, to pilfer from the Jesse Lee Home garden just as much as it is to break into mans home. Let's have it stopped!

EDITORIAL

Seward people this week have had the opportunity to listen in OH and. if it had been deemed neces- sary, the right to intervene in a Civil AeronauticS Board hearing in- volving air carrier service between this seaport city and the city of Anchorage.
 Probably the most significant aspect of the entire proceeding from where we sit is the fact that someone has kept faith with Sew ard. About four months ago. MT. Kinsey of the Civil Aeronautics Board was in Seward and at that time said the hearing would be held here. MT. kinsey kept his word.
 The people of Seward are more interested in certification of a Sew ard based air carrier than in who carries the mail or at what price.
 Evidence presented clearly de- fines the fact that Seward wants a locally based carrier The CONVEN- IENCE of such an arrangement is undeniable. The NECESSITY or lack thereof for such an operation will be decided upon by the Civil Aeronautics Board If, in these four days of the hearing in Seward, evi- dence presented is not sufficient to convince the Board of the neces- sity for a Seward based carrier, such certificate will not be grant ed as a result of this hearing.
 Now, my friends, if we have evi- dence at our disposal which might
