MRS. WALTER WHITE
ON MIXED MARRIAGES

July 6 will mark the third
anniversary of one of the most
fam Gus interraeial marriages
since Frederick Douglass mar
ried Helen Pitts sixty-eight years
ago. The very popular and tall
ented Poppy Cannon, wife of the
internationally famous Walter
(NAACP) White, writes most
fascinatingly of their mixed mar
riage and its aftermath in a ma
tional magazine article.
The m ost encouraging thing
about her story is the fact that,
after three years the ciTeumstan-
tial structure of their lives did not
collapse after the first tremor. In
certain respects, their foundations
are stronger than ever. Mrs.
White is still q successful adver-
tising executive and food editor
of Mademoiselle. Mr.. White is at
the zenith Of his amazing career
as executive secretary of the
NAACP. But three years ago
both thought that crossing racial
lines at the altar would probably
end their individual careers.
Now the facts show (1) that
the great majority of mixed mar
riages work out very well; CD
