i Graham said he deliberately av-
oided going to the Union Of South
Africa because he refused to speak
to segregated audiences.
"But many South Africans came
to our meetings in Rhodesia," he
said, "and they told me that re-
ligious revival was the only answer
to the almost insoluble racial prob
lem.
"They think that in about two
years they can arrange multi-racial
meetings. If that can be done,
South Africa is the first place
want to CO."
Graham said virtually all the
leaders of the nationalist move
ments in Africa were educated in
Christian missions.
"The majority of Africans are
not yet awarde Of the extent of
discrimination against the Negro
in the United States" he warned,
"and that is a problem we must
make the most urgent efforts to
solve if we are to keep the friend
ship of that continent"

comment on recent racial conflicts

ed his home at Montreal, N. c. He

work today in our midst and across

schools are needed, he said, as
well as wider use Of textbooks
and other Institutional tools pre-
pared by Negroes.
The Higher Horizons program
of the New York City Department
Of Education was described for
the commission by its coordinator,
DR.. Daniel Schneider.
He cited progress made toward
increasing the number of high
school graduates from low socio-
economic groups and getting them
admitted to college.
Because most of the students in
the program are Negroes or Puer-
to Ricians, an effort is made to
convince them that avenues of op-
portunity are not closed to them.
Cases in which members of mi
nority groups have risen to the
top of their professions are point
ed out.
The students visit research and
industrial sites. Field trips are
made to colleges and universities
both in and out of the city. And
they are encouraged to develop
an appreciation of art, music and
the theatre.
DR.. Schneider said that the pro-
gram began in 1856 in grades 7,
8 and 9 of one school. Because
of its success, he said, it has since
been extended to forty-one schools
and expanded to include from the
third grade upward.
The cost above the normal per-
pupil expenditure, according to him
is $50 a year in elementary and
junior high schools and $500 in
senior high schools.

vanPelt Bryan has permitted the
Government to introduce testimony
to show q similar pattern" Of al
legged fraud.
The witness who testified yes
terday to the inaccuracies w as
James w. Johnson, lawyer and
former collector of Internal Reve-
nue. for upper Manhattan. He was
in the bureau for IL years, until
August, 1861.
The overstatement of Mr.. Pow
ellis reportable income came thru
inclusion Of $500 allowed to Con-
gressmen for expenses. Mr.. John
son said under cross-examination
by Edward Bennett Williams, chief
defense counsel, that he did not
know that a legislative act in 1916
had exempted Congressman from
the necessity of accounting for
the expense allowance.
The understatement of Mrs. Pow
ellis income for 1851 was through
failure to include $1,000 in foreign
currencies, drawn from booking
agents in Europe and Irsael during
a concert tour abroad the last four
months Of that year.
Mr.. Johnson testified that Mr..
Powell had given him a memo
randum listing such income and
saying it had been spent abroad.
Previously, Mr.. Johnson said, he
had given the Congressman his
opinion that income from the tour
that was in currencies that could
not be freely transmitted to the
United States in dollars need not
be included. The $4,000 obviously
did not fall in that category. Mr..
Johnson was not asked yesterday
why he had not included the mon
ey.
Mr.. Johnson also admitted to
two other mistakes. He confirmed
that he had duplicated $500 in
computing Mrs. Powell's income,
as Mr.. Williams had deduced on
Tuesday from the testimony of
another witness. Yesterday he add
ed $23.23 to the total of $10,917.07
of such duplication.
Mr.. Johnson was questioned by
both Morton S. Robson, Chief AS
sistant United States Attorney,
and by Mr.. Williams on VIII t
reasoning he had used in accept
ing entertainment expenses claim
ed by both Powell's in their 1851
returns. Mr.. Robson charged in his
opening statement two weeks ago
that such deductions had been Eek
cessive."
Mr.. Johnson said he followed
the "Cohan rule" of reasonable
estimate" of such expenditures.
