The New York Times stated edi-
torially that South Africa should
either have agreed to waive its
segregation practices in respect to
American sailors or the Midway
should have been kept out Of
Capetown.
The Navy seems to have taken
this situation lying down, stated
the New York paper, and this is
not in Navy tradition

In reply to this editorial, let
ter TO the editor Of the same paper
published Wednesday under the
signature of Warren Goodman at
Groton-on-Hudson, stated that
even granting that segregation
laws are IAN affront TO human de-
cency" one cannot logically advise
that the Midway boycott Cape
town because of those laws unless
one is willing to be consistent and
advocate also that the Midway
stay out of Norfolk, Va; Charles
ton. S. c.; or New Orleans or any
other port where its non-white
personnel would be subject to SIM
liar segregation laws.
Carrying this campaign one step
further, he said, one would be
forced to advocate that the Navy
and all other branches of the arm
ed forces close up all air stations
and other shore installations
south of the Mason-Dixon line so

His lack of knowledge OF tn
weekly press conference, on
Thursday, when the AMP reporter
asked If the government would
continue TO permit Naval vessels
to visit ports where the crews
were subjected to racial segrega-
ton as recently happened in Cape
town when the Midway visited
there.
The president replied that he did
not know about the case until
someone showed him a newspaper
clipping. He suggested that the re-
porter should ask the secretary of
defense or the Secretary of the
Navy about the situation.
When the reporter checked
with the office of the Secretary
of Defense, she was referred to
the Secetary Of Navy, because,
said a spokesman, that il the
Nays problem.
Since the Secretary of Navy was
in the hospital, the reporter was
shifted to the acting secretary who
was supposedly in a conference
and could not be reached. Later a
spokesman from Acting Secretary
James Smiths office announced
that an official statement was be-
ing prepared and would be releas-
ed within a few hours through the
Navy information office.
The statement pointed out that
Midway's visit to Capetown was
arranged through normal channels
to fill a necessary operation log
istic requirement.
1t is international practice, the
statement said. for vessels visiting
foreign ports TO observe local laws
and customs. But this is no indi-
cation that the Navy approves of
such laws nor does il in any way
conflict with Navy policy of inte-
grafton.
South Africans Come Aboard
II was pointed out that the
Naval personnel requested the au-
thorities in Capetown to allow its
to come aboard the Mid
way on privileges which strict OBJ
servance of laws would not have
permitted.
In the course of these visits, the
Navy took the opportunity to dem
onstrate on board ship how it
practices the policy of indignation
which 1T has long upheld"
This invitation is said to have
resulted in the visit of $4,000
South Africans of all races, creeds
and colors. And there was said to
be mutual goodwill between the
Capetown citizenry and all per-
sonnet of the ship.
The Navy stated that in inn
fermentation of national policy,
naval vessels must visit as many
ports of the world as possible. In
so doing, they can carry free and
integrated way of life to other
peoples,
Much protest was raised in
Washington last week when it was
first learned that the 400 colored
crew members aboard the carrier
Midway were required to have
special permit allowing them priv
ileges to use Jim crow facilities
