scientists, medical men and wo-
men, scholars, artists, engineers,
and specialists at the very top of
their chosen professions. They are
contributing in various ways to
the sum total of human knowledge.
In serving mankind, they are al
so helping South Africa. It would
seem Chat service to mankind
should take precedence over petty
national prejudices.
The tragedy Of the whole situa-
ton is that some 9,O0O,0 900 color
ed people in South Africa are de-
MED world services because of the
idiotic prejudices of a compare
lively few white people who have
so far contributed nothing of any
spiritual, cultural or moral value
to mankind.
This nations basic mistake is in
thinking that 2,225,000 whites and
near-whites can stay the tides of
human progress. Every colored a.
dult who earns a university de-
gree, every colored child who
learns to read and write, every
colored person who can work or
fight will help to overcome these
small persons who seek to ban
knowledge and skill from their
range.

One frequently is compelled to
wonder whether or not leaders of
colorphobic areas of the world
such as Virginia and other south
ern state in the United States,
South and East Africa, and Aus
tralia have heard that colored
peoples can now read and write,
listen to the radio, and are civil

Today, on the world front, two
mighty blocs, the U.S.A. and the
U.S.S.R. are seeking allies. War
may be coming, and both the win

After the war the weary peoples
of the world will need peace. To
enjoy this peace they must be as
sured of security under a rule Of
law and order. They must know
that the nation holding the power
will dispense justice.
What colored person in the world
today who has read of the Martin

of getting justice from an Ameri-
can tribunal?
A BONER BY SOUTH AFRICA
South Africa is just beginning
to feel the effects of one of its
biggest boners of recent days =
that Of refusing to guarantee
equality of treatment and refus-

The British Medical association
has taken a stand that it will not
attend the meeting, sponsored by
the South African association, un-
der such conditions. The meeting
is slated for johannesburg in
July.
The latest development in this
issue has been a statement by the
South African Medical Journal de-

South Africa by the color bar
