DEAR Mr.. McGehee !:

We wish we had sure answers to your
questions. A million or more Nlrgnians are
just as confused as are if that can be Of
any satisfaction to either Of us.
To place the problem in perspective let
llS review briefly The problem is not new
- it begins with life itself. when races
were created by our Maker. AS stated in our
Bible (Acts IL :26), And hath made of one
blood all nations Of men for to dwell on all
the face Of the earth. and hath determined
the times before appointed. and the bounds
Of Their habitafion. So long as the various
races remained in their bounds, each deve
oped its own customs and cultures, some
more rapidly than others. Governments
developed; religious concepts developed:
social customs developed - each race its
own.
The white race made more rapid progress
than the other races. especially in the time
since it adopted the principles Of Christian

period of time, freedom of the white man
from the tyranny Of his rulers has been
won. eliminating III the Constitution of the
United States of America. Written and
adopted by a free people in an atmosphere
Of freedom our forefathers devised a
REPUBLIC for the perpetual freedom of
its citizens, under a Constitution made fleX-
lille through provisions for amendments

300 years has become the greatest nation
on earth, economically industrialy and
Internationally.

brought the black race to this nation, racial
problems began. It was mans sin These

their Will. We're given sympathetic treat

were found to be best suited economically
They developed fine culture Of their own,

Negro races have lived and progressed,
