Laws Can Change
Hears Humphrey
Saws On Riohfs

New York.-SpealIing as chair
man of the Conference on Con-
stitutional Rights held here in Oc-
tober, Senator Hubert H. Hum
phrey, Minnesota Democrat, can
didate for reelection on Nov. 8
disagreed with those who want to
wait until peoples hearts change
before extending full equality to
some minority groups.
Said Humphrey:
1T is manifestly wrong to
think that governmental action
can do nothing to cause a change
of heart. The argument that we
must rely exclusively on moral
and spiritual regeneration over
looks the distinction between
prejudice and discrimination.
DISCRIMINATION involves be-
haviOr, action, and choice. Pre-
judice is a matter Of belief, at
titude, and involuntary feeling.
We seek by law to attack dis
elimination, not prejudice. And
If we succeed In eliminating dis
elimination by law we have rea-
son to expect the lessening Of
prejudice because discrimination
is the yeast that gives ferment
to prejudice.
my concept, therefore, Of
what the Executive can do Is
simply this: America needs q
President who is more than an
administrator. America needs a
President who is more than the
chairman Of the Cabinet. Amer
lea needs a President who can
educate and persuade, inspire,
and convince"
Humphrey was asked to leave
his busy campaigning in Mime
sofa to come to New York to chair
the conference, as the leading ex-
ponent Of human rights in the ma
ton.
Sponsors of the conference point
ed out that both major parties
have civil rights planks modelled
after Humphreys prononcement
on the issue for the past IL years.

Sammy Davis Supporters
Attack Swusfiku-
Wearing Young Rueisf.

Hollywood, Calf. (ANP) - A
group of supporters of singer Sam
my Davis Jr., last week angrily
attacked four Swastika-wearing
youths outside the Huntington
Hartford theater and almost mob
bed them before police rescued the
boys.
The four youths had attempted
to picket the opening performance
of Davis new show to protest his
forthcoming marriage to blond ac-
tress May Britt. Although they
denied belonging to any organiza-
ton, the young racists said they
believe in racial purity" and OBJ
jected to the intermarriage.
However, their efforts to demon
strate against Davis almost ended
in tragedy, as the group of theater-
goers bounced upon them. One
youth was knocked to the ground,
while others were struck before
three policemen on the scene came
to their rescue.
Someone in the crowd even
swung a piece of 2-by-4 at the
youths but was prevented from in
flicting any damage by. police.
Later when the youths were
placed in a police car, the crowd,
still angry, milled around and spat
on them.
The youths, ranging in age from
10 to 20, were hustled from the
scene by police who said they"
couldn't guarantee their safety"

IN
ONE
EAR

The footsteps Of time have fin
ally caught up with us and we find
ourselves in a most uncompromis-
ing situation; we can never return
to yesterday and our childhood, and
we can't go into the future Our
only recourse is to learn from the
past, apply it to the present and
plan or should 1 say hope for fu-
ture. With this in mind we should
drive on in a relentless surge to
better ourselves. And by doing this
we will achieve our end; to find
a place in this society.
This doesn't mean we must crush
everything that stands in our way.
For as we follow that road it will
lead to self destruction. Seeing as
we are young adults, the road to
the future goes in many directions,
and only by following the right one
can we assure ourselves Of self re-
spect from others and peace of
mind.
On Saturday evening, October
20, 1860, Miss Barbara Banas Of
Minneapolis gave an informal
party which brought together Min
neapolis and st. Paul students and
none-students who are interested
in the S. F. I. (Students For In
tergration). The officers of the
organization are: Harry Stein,
president; Mike Klein, Vice Presi-
dent; 10 Addie Munson, treasurer,
and Paula Nevis, secretary.
The purpose of this organization
is to acquaint the students, their
friends, their family, and the
people in their environment that
such a thing as segregation does
exist right here in the Minneapolis
st. Paul area. The first problem
of this organization is open occu-
pancy, and believe me this is a
prodigious problem facing the S.
F. I. and you. the reading public
regardless of race, creed or color.
Those in attendance besides the
officers were Janice Crabb, Mary
Hook, Jim Mayenil, Ellen Baker,
Melania Hoffman, Hugh Brown,
and Sandra Rogers. Also present
were Garland F. Hunter, Jr., Rich
ard Allison, Roland Mcfarland,
Leonard Hayer, and yours truly.
The Minnesota Golden Gophers"
under the head coaching of Muir
ray Warmth, and the able field
leadership of Sandy Stephens and
company face the toughest test of
the season Saturday afternoon
when they meet the Hawkeyes of
Iowa at Memorial Stadium. This
has all the ear marks Of being the
game of the year. When the Goph-
ers go onto the field they will
answer a lot of questions that the
fans have been asking; are they
really that good or have the other
teams been that bad. The answer
will be a surprise to many of US.
And those of us left will say told
you so.
