defensible must be that which
gives the fullest opportunity of
development to the members Of all
racial groups. We believe that 1t
is morally wrong to follow a
policy which has as its objective
the keeping of any particular
racial group in permanent posi-
tion Of inferiority; and we believe
that racial discrimination as 1t Is
practiced in this country is direct
ed to this end. In every racial
group there are wide differences
Of ability between man and man,
and 1t Is wrong that the opportun-
tiles open to a man should be de-
termined by the racial group to
which he belongs and not by his
own character and abilities. Such
a policy seems to us to lead to a
system of caste against which the
Christian Church has always set
its face.
Not Practical
II has been suggested that II
would be possible to keep the diff
ferent racial groups separated
and yet to give to each group
equal opportunities Of economic
and cultural development. We do
not believe that this is practic-
able. The Industrial. economic. and
cultural development of the coun-
try demands the cooperation of
the different racial groups that
make up its population. This is
recognized by all parties in the
state. Since the passing OF iegisla-
ton which absolves the state from
providing equal facilities for diff
ferent racial groups It is no longer
legitimate to defend racial segre-
cation by claiming that II does not
involve any infringement Of the
principle OF equality.
II has been stated that the fact
that normally Europeans and
Africans worship in different
church buildings is itself an ack-
nowledgement OF the principle of
segregation. This is not so. Both
linguistic and geographical rea-
sons make II natural that nor
mally Africans and Europeans
should worship in different places
But an African member of the
Church is at liberty to worship in
any church which he may desire,
and no one has any authority 10
exclude any churchman of any
race from any OF our churches II
he presents himself there for the
purpose OF worship. And no at
tempt has been made by the Gov
ernment to interfere in this mat
ter,
Change Desired
With regard to education. we
believe that is is morally wrong
to educate one particular racial
St. Paul recorder., 1953-11-13

group in such way at to fit its
members only for subordinate and
inferior positions. In present cir
cumstances 1t is reasonable that
there should be separate schools
for different races. AS long as the
present insistence on social segre-
cation persists 1t would not be in
the interest Of the child to grow
accustomed at school to degree
of social intimacy which would be
impossible after leaving school.
But we greatly desire a change in
public opinion which would make
II possible for some children in all
racial groups to be educated to-
gether without risk of grave psy-
Geological harm.
There have been instances in
our schools where this has proved
possible, but they are admittedly
rare. We wish they could become
less rare. But education for Afri-
cans should have the same aim as
that for Europeans, namely. to
make them fit to render the best
service to the common life of the
country that their natural abilities
make possible.
What we have said arises out of
the Christian doctrine of man, as
made known to us through the
teaching and practice of our Lord; T;
and we commend it to the con-
sideration of all who believe that
in his teaching and example is to
be found the key to national poll
icy and individual conduct.
Sense OF Unfairness
We recognize that racial dis
elimination, as practiced in any
country, raises moral issues as to
which is right that Christian
opinion throughout the world
should find expression. But we de-
precate the tendency to isolate
the Union of South Africa in this
matter. Racial discrimination does
in fact occur In other parts Of the
world also. and expressions of
moral indignation directed against
this country alone are likely to
arouse among South Africans,
even among men Of good will, a
sense of unfairness which goes
far to deprive such expressions of
the Christian conscience of the
influence which they might other
wise exercise.
But II is duty laid upon US, as
the Church of the province OF
South Africa, to give expression
to that worldwide Christian opin-
ion which we ourselves share in its
relation to the situation in our
own country. and we disire tc
make IL plain that no attempt
has been made by those in author.
ity to prevent us from doing so.
