The current assignment in Sier-

prove the colony's power-communi-
cation system, transportation sys-

education in agriculture.
In addition to providing tech
nical assistance in Sierre Leone,
the ICA program provides grants
that will support the training of
technicians in the colony.
At least two-thirds of the tech
nical assistance in Sierre Leone
is supplied by British personnel,
whole only one-third Of the tech

The major value Of the ICA

Gated that the program results in
increased participation of the To-

ilarly, other studies indicate that
Negroes regard the Jewish portion
of the white community as more
favorable to them than non-Jews."
Moreover, he added, Negroes and
Jews recognize a sort of "kinship
or practical affinity" because they
have both been the target Of OPP
preston. He said that just as
Jewish groups have helped in the
struggle for civil rights, Negro
organizations have joined, for ex-
ample, in fostering legislation

portance to Jews than Negroes.
Only last week, he reported, the
National Association for the Ad-

mitted a friend-of-the-court brief
in support of the American Jewish
Congress legal challenge in the
New York Court of Appeals direct
ed against the anti-Jewish job
practices of the Arabian American
Oil Company (Aramco).
Five-Point Program Outlined
Mr.. Edelstein proposed five
point program for improving Ne
! gro-Jewish relations as part OF
what he termed "our major effort
to demolish the barriers of bigotry
and intolerance among all Ameri-
g; cans: - az s Biz s-u-
~ Gree and candid discussions"
should be begun among Negroes
and Jews to create better under
standing. This dialogue" should
take place not only among national
leaders of the two groups but on
the local level where grievances
can be ventilated and ameliorative
measures developed, he said. "To-
pether, we must undertake pro-
gram for correcting misconcep-
tons that exist in both commune
ties" Mr.. Edelstein declared.
p Ways must be found to over

Such efforts, he said, should en-

by-word in relationships between
the Negro and Jewish communities
"In political and economic under
taking, in inter-religious dialogues
and similar projects, special effor
should be made to increase partici
patton by Negroes as an integra
and equal part of the entire com
munity," Mr.. Edelstein said.
Summing up, the America
Jewish Congress leader and Phil
adelphia human relations officia
declared:
1.-THE maturing Negro of toda!
has abandoned his former inferio
status and will no longer ALLOW
others to speak for or lead him

and proper status, Jews and Ne

a small part of the total Negro
community"
Mr.. Edelstein, who is also chair
man of the Philadelphia Commits
sion on Human Relations, noted
that although influential Negro
leaders have publicly stressed the
contribution of Jewish organiza-
tions in the fight for racial equal
ity, "the mass ofthe Negro COM
munity is yet unaware of that con-
tributon."
He spoke at a meeting of the
national Governing Council Of the
American Jewish Congress in the
Warwick Hotel here. Nearly 200
leaders of the Jewish organization
from various sections of the coun-
try are attending the two-day
meeting.
The Jewish leader and human
relations official contrasted the
"close collaboration" among Negro
and Jewish leadehs on the civil
rights issue with what he termed
"lack of understanding between
the Negro and Jewish rank and
file" He said the influx of Ne
groes into the large cities of the
North had brought them into in
creasing contact with urbanized
Jewish communities, giving rise
to increased tension and competi-
ton between the two groups.
Negro resentment of Jews stems
in part fromthe fact that Jews
are members of the white commun-
ity at whose hands Negroes have
long suffered injustice, and because
some Negroes acquire anti-Semitit
attitudes and prejudices that ex.
lists in the white Christian commun'
ity, Mr.. Edelstein declared.
! He said potent source" of ten
sion was the Negro Moslem move
ment, although he doubted whether
the bulk of it's followers were
presently. committed to anti-Semit
ism.
NegrO-Jewish Attitudes
Affected by Stereotypes
Negro-Jewish friction is alst
based on the stereotypes that at
feet some members Of each GROUP
in their attitudes toward the other
Mr.. Edelstein asserted. Because
contacts between Negroes an6
Jews occur frequently in terms o.
tenant-landlord, employee-employ
er or debtor-creditor relationships
he said, some Negroes view Jew:
as "exploiters," whether or mo-
there is any justification for thu
charge. Similarly, he added, som'
Jews share anti-Negro prejudice
common among many whites, al
evinced in the action of those wh'
react with fear, panic and fligh
when Negroes move into previous
ly all-white neighborhoods.
Repeated studies uniforml!
show, however, that Jews have I
lower degree of prejudice thar

Local unions which still had

CHRISTMAS MESSAGE
Continued from Page y

In looking back on our gains ol this past year, we know that
they have touched all our lives in the area of a strengthened economy
a rore adequate water supply; better roads, streets, and improved
housing facilities; improved educational and cultural programs; great
er cooperation from our Federal government; more and better job
opportunities for our young people; and the many other programs
upon which this administration has embarked. But in addition to
these tangibles, let US resolve that we shall endeavor to reflect the
dignity anG pride of our heritage. The kindness and charity which
are our natural gifts. The energy and vision which we have SO fire.
quently demonstrated. And, the love and forgiveness of which we
are so capable.
Let us rededicate ourselves to the true meaning of this season,
being ever mindful that hate and anger, fear and distrust, envy and
jealousy all embitter and cripple us and make us less human, and
less worthy of the blessings of the season. Let us forget petty diff
ferences an dseek to find that common basis of friendship and CO.
operation which we know exists, and is the touchstone of our future
growth and progress.
Since Christmas has special meaning for children the world over,
/ wish at this time to speak directly to the children of the Virgin
Islands. To you. l say Merry Merry Christmas. What 1 have said
in the first part of this message was not intended to diminish the
3lghter-hearted side of Christmas, along with the gaiety and joy. And
with the hope my serious thoughts will remain with you IS you en-
joy your gifts and fun. And, that you will remember the true mean
ing of Christmas. 1t is important that you realize that the greatest
joy that parents know in this season comes from the happiness which
they give to you and the happiness which you give to them. Be
thoughtful in your enjoyment, share generously with others, love
your parents, and fulfill their comfort of pride and joy they have in
you.
come and invite you to share with us equally the wonderful
joys Of this Christmas season and to accept our gracious hos
pitality in the true spirit in which it is given.
In closing, Mrs. Paiewonsky joins me in wishing all our
people here and abroad, our friends and visitors, peace and
Joy, now and throughout the New Year. It is our wish that
the spirit which pervades this season will lnger long and
lovingly in your hearts and minds and be reflected in peace
the kind of peace which passeth all understanding. A very
merry Christmas and a happy holiday season to you all.
