For who among us has not felt
the sting of being in a minority
at one time or another?
II make that point only as a
reminder that when we stand
up against bigotry we are not
being charitable to other
groups. We are protecting our
own liberties, our own precious
rights to be judged as individ-
uals."
The then Vice President en-
phasized the force of custom as
an obstacle to human advance
ment. "We see the painful truth
of this as we observe efforts to
erase from our society the blot
Of racial and religious discrimi-
nation" he declared, adding:
"And I say this with no holier-
than-thou attitude. We all have
been influenced by the ideas,
the assumptions, the likes, the
dislikes, of our fathers and
grandfathers. Each of us is
to some degree victim Of our
environments.
What we must do is free
ourselves, and help to free each
other, from the ignorance, the
outmoded notions, that are in
compatible with free society in
an age of nuclear weapons and
space vehicles"

The occasion was the presen-
tation to the then Vice Presi-
dent Of the Maryland Chapters
Stephen 8. Wise Medallion, nam
ed for the founder and longtime
leader Of the American Jewish
Congress. It was presented to
Mr.. Johnson "for distinguished
service to the cause of democ-
racy and inspiring leadership as
Vice President Of the United
States and Chairman Of the
Presidents Committee on Equal
Employment Opportunities"
In accepting the Medallion
from Jack Levin, president of
the Al Congress Maryland
Chapter, Mr.. Johnson declared:
II accept this honor in good
conscience only because / view
it as token Of appreciation and
encouragement to those Ameri-
cans, including members Of the
American Jewish Congress, who
have worked so long to make the
American dream a thing of life.
"But I could never view this
plaque as a tribute to me alone.
You see, ! got my reward for
my efforts against discrimina-

"My reward has been an in
creased understanding and ap-
probation of what my country
stands for and must be.
"My profit has been a sharp
er awareness of what it is we
offer when we Americans speak
to the world"
In his acceptance speech, Mr..
Johnson quoted from a maga-
zine article by Libby Benedict
which said in part:
what a minority group
wants is not the right to have
geniuses among them, but the
right to have fools and scoun-
drels - without being condemn
ed as a group.
Every group has about the
same proportion of wrongdoers.
But when wrongdoers belong to
a minority group their number
is magnified in the minds of 9TH
er people. Minorities would
gladly give up the reflected
glory of their great men, if
only the world didn't burden
them with the ignominy of their
scoundrels."
Commenting, Mr.. Johnson told
