world and represent every race of
mankind. The varying heritages
of our people are evident in our
appearances and influence our &C

we are looking for photographs
which depict the wide variety of
racial, national and cultural or

are more interested in pictures Of
people in action, living their lives
In America.
I'VE want pictures showing CO.
operation and friendship across
the lines Of race, religion and ma
tional origin. We also want pic
lures showing the difficulties, pre-
JUDGE and open conflict which
sometimes result from differences
in background or origin"
