where Negro entrants were greet
ed with burning crosses, but many
more where they have been receiv-
ed warmly by their classmates.
Negroes are chiefly entering the
graduate and professional schools
of the universities, but many are
going in as undergraduates.
In the Sweat case, the Supreme
Court reversed an 1896 decision
holding that the United States Con-
stitution permits segregation of
Negroes and whites, provided both
races receive equal treatment.
Also entered in the Crusade
for Truth" are some telling facts
on American Negro education
brought to light in discussion of
discrimination in education on a
worldwide basis held at the United
Nations in early January. In the
report of the UN. Commission
Against Discrimination, the Unit
ed States was put down as making
great progress in this field. 10
Delegates from many nations
were interested as Judge Philip
Halprin of Buffalo, sitting as An
individual expert on the commits
sion, made the disclosure that, in
1851, there were just about as
many Negroes enrolled in institu-
tions of higher learning in the
United States as there were per-
sons enrolled in such institutions in
the Soviet Union.
The Soviet Union prides itself
on it's higher education system.
Judge Halprin's survey showed
that the Negro enrolment in the
United States was 5000 per l.
100000 of the Negro population,
while the Soviets had 6,97O per
100000 of the total population
enrolled in 1851.
The Soviet Union was the only
country where the percentage OF
the American Negro.
The figures. cited at the UN
showed that in 1851 there were
100000 Negroes enrolled in in
situations of higher learning
throughout the United States.
Out of the Negro cast Of "Porgy
and Bess," which recently travel
ed to Moscow for the first Ameri-
can drama presentation in many
wears, more than half had been
to college.
At one point on the trip, Helen
Thigpen, who played the bride,

sian: care you a Negro or an
Americana"
When Miss Thigpen replied, 81
am an American Negro" she was
flatly told, "You can't be both"
Miss Thigpen thereupon cited the
fact that she and many of her
fellow-actors had been to college
as part of their conviction that
they were both American and Ne

He said the federal government
should not talk about 10 years or
that sort of thing" as a waiting
period before fully enforcing the
Supreme Courts decree.
Following Harriman's statement
Adlai Stevenson reiterated his
stand that there should be no slow
ing down of desegregation efforts.
But, he said, eve must recognize
that it's is reason alone that will
determine our rate of continued
progress"
Certainly we will not imp1 owe
the present condition or future
prospects Of any Negro citizen by
coercive federal action that will
arm the extremists and disarm
the men of good will in the South
who with courage and patience,
have already accomplished so
much"
Stevenson earlier stated his OPP
position to amending the pending
bill on federal aid for school con-
struction to provide that no fed

schools.

whether the practical effect of the
