STAUNTON. Va. Sept. A.
The Presbyterian Synod of vir-
ginia recommended yesterday
that its local churches admit
persons to membership with
out reference to race"
A report adopted by the Synod
held that enforced segregation
of the races is discrimination
which is out Of harmony with
Christian theology and ethics -
It added that the church in its
relationship to cultural patterns
should lead rather than follow. "
In adopting the report, the
Synod gave substantial approval
to the stand taken earlier by the
Southern Presbyterian Church's

What pleased the Urban League
was not so much that Harvester

In its 10 Northern and Western
plants-Other companies also do
that but that Harvester has car
ried a clear-cut policy of non-dis-
elimination into the South itself.
Partly because of 10 Anderson and
partly because Harvester has found
that Negro workers in general are
just as good as white, it declined to
conform to the local policy of dis
elimination when it opened plants
after World War II in Memphis
and Louisville, and the results, said
the Urban League, are an object

elimination down Southern threats
without warning. Scouts were sent
to each city we'll in advance to
place newspaper ads explaining
company policy, to talk to civic
groups and city officials. When
the time came to hire, interviewers
were on hand to explain exactly
what the company meant. EVERY
white applicant" says a Harvester
official "was very clearly told
that we did not discriminate and
that he might find himself beside
Negro. If he didn't like it, then
it was no place for him to come to
york" A few whites turned on
their heels.
On the job Negroes worked
shoulder to shoulder with whites.
When local laws allowed they used
the same dining rooms, the same
drinking fountains and locker
rooms. Harvester expected some
trouble and was ready when it
came. When lone Negro showed
mp among a group of white welders
in Memphis, the whites stalked off
the job. Backed by the U. A. W.,
c. |. o., Harvester simply told them
to get back to work or be fired.
They went back. Gradually, white
workers began to accept the idea
of Negroes on the Production line.
Said one white foundry worker:
They've got to make a living
same as us. Why should we stand
in their way? Outside the plant,
it's a different matter. | don't
have to ask them into my home,
you know"
At Harvester's two Southern
plants, 915 Negroes now work with
4,46S whites (of Harvester's total
payroll of $1,000 employees, ~
are Negroes.) AS Negroes advance
in skill, they get better pay, bet
ter jobs, some times even beat out
white workers for positions. There
are Negro Lab technicians, crane
operators, drop-forge men, welders,
craftsmen and assembly men, all
skilled or semi-skilled jobs. Eric

cades. Negroes now play on plant
softball teams, go to the same COM
pany picnics with whites. When
wives toured the plants in 1851,
they did it in mixed groups and
ate at the same tables.

Chief Ivan Willis explained Har-
westerns policy in the kind of hard,
sensible terms businessmen under
stand. Harvester is not running a
crusade, he said "a fair-employ-
ment policy is nothing more than
good business. Said Willis: "Our
basic approach is that the Negro
shall be given the opportunity to
earn a living that is in keeping
with his native intelligence, his
education and skill and his ambi-
ton. 1t is our belief that if this
policy is not followed, our COM
pany and the nation are the losers"
