NEGRO CHURCH
ANALYzED BY
FRANKLIN FRAZIER

Franklin Fraziers prema-
ture death was an irreparable
loss to sociology as study in
realistic terms Of social issues.
His posthumous work on the Ne
gro church is brief but brill
liant analysis Ct the historical
origin and the present situation
of a crucially important institu-
tion Of the American Negro peo-
pie. He did not live long enough
to witness and comment upon the
recent Negro rebellion against
discrimination, segregation, un-
employment, underemployment
and poverty. But his book gives
the background necessary for
understanding why the church,
the religious leaders and the
religion itself have played such
an important role in that re-
bellion," said Gunnar Myrdal,
author of 1.-The American Dr.
lemma.
The Negro church has been at
once, as Professor Frazier sug-
gests, the most stable institution
on the Negro side Of the Amer
lean color line and the least
powerful. 1t has been an institu-
tion of accommodation and pro-
test. From that ambivalent char
acter has now emerged the emo
tional strength to fight battle
on which the future Of democracy
in America probably depends.
1.-The Negro Church in America"
must be read If the complex and
tragic circumstances of the
march of the American Negro,
out of their churches into the
streets, to demand their dignity,
is to be fully comprehended even
by readers within the Negro COM
munity itself.

REJECTEES
HIGH AMONG MEN

The national report of the task
force on Man Power Conserva-
ton made it's final report to
President Lyndon B. Johnson. 1t
was entitled, "One-Third OF
Nation" which gave findings on
Young men who were unqualified
for military service.
The report concluded that one
third of all the young men in our
country turning l0 would be found
unqualified If they were examined
for the armed forces. One Of
every two selective service re-
gistrants called for pre-induc-
ton examinations Is now undual-
flied. The majority Of the re-
iectees were caused by made
ouate education and to a lesser
degree insufficient medical care.
These same young men face a
lifetime of recurrent unemploy-
ment.
Rates of mental tests failures
for whites and Negroes showed
wide variations. Nationally, So
per cent of the Negroes who had
pre-inductions examinations in
1862 failed the tests, as COM
pared to Is per cent of the white.
Negro rejection rates in some
kof the western states. were less
than one-half of the national av-
erage for Negroes, and we're only
slightly above the rejection rates
for white registrants in certain
northeastern states.
Four out Of five rejectees were
school dropouts, nearly one half
had left school before II. FL
nancial reasons were greater
among nonwhites than whites.
Three out of 10 rejectees
we're unemployed. More than four
