In India:
Ambassador Says
U. S. Race Strife
Harms Prestige
BY Allce a. Dunnlgan

WaShington-(ANP)-T This
wave of racial terrorism now
sweeping the United States is
hurting us in Asia more than
any other thing, recently stat
ed Ambassador John Sherman
Cooper.
Back in the states for Consulta-
ton with State Department Off
cials, the U. s. Ambassador to In
dia addressed the Women's Ma
tional Press club at its regular
luncheon held at the Mayfower
hotel last week
Following the question period
Ambassador Cooper told the AMP
that few people OF India realized
that the racial situation in this
country is improving in some
eminent officials planning ways
eminent ofhCialsp tanning ways
to legahzc segregation and dis
elimination.
once upon time ambassadors
20 foreign countries could eN-
plain away the question Of segre-
CATION by saying it was not APP
proved or supported by the gov
eminent That cannot be said to-
day when these people are aware
that state government officials
are not only supporting racial seq
rcgation but are demanding that
II be maintained by law. This stu
alton is very difficult for Ameri-
can diplomats to explain
After returning from the Ban
dung conference, said Ambassador
Cooper. the Prime Minister Of In,

dia stated that "racism could be-
come one OF the great evils Of the
world" but he claimed that In
dia was determined that 1t will
not accept this as an example Of
its desire for 'exclusiveness and
maturity"
Indians, he said, are a warm.
highly intellectual people who de-
sire a larger friendship with the
United States"
These people are interested in
our political policy and our in
ternational policy, continued the
ambassador. But they are curious
about the people Of the United
States.
The people of India have a great
misunderstanding and misappre-
hension about the people Of the
United States, just as we have
about them, but there is no ideo-
logical difference. Both countries
have chosen a democratic form
Of government and both hope TO
preserve this democracy.
India win not associate militar-
lily or politically with either the
United States or the Soviet bloc,
said the Ambassador.
India believes that it has, not
only a right, but a responsibility
10 express itself on world issues.
India is an Asian country, older
in culture than ours, said Mr.
Cooper. and IT has developed a cul-
ture Of which it is proud.
He recalled that India was I'M
der domination of another coun-
try for many years. Now that it
has obtained its political indie
pendenCe. it feels that it should
have its own right to hold this
political and economical independ-
enCe.
II is not the purpose Of India to
align itself with the Communist,
nor with us, stated the ambassa-
dor It is their desire to be friendly
with all countries.
IF a country is trying to de-
velop itself-if a country is try
ing to be democratic, that's the
kind Of country we want to help"
