DULLES wrote that it was a particular matter of regret that he could not be in Auburn for the dedication of the Tubman Home as; a national shrine and museum "because Mrs. Dulles knew Harriet Tubman, whose name you will honor.

Mo. "It the United States if the U. S. Supreme Court confirms segregation in the school cases now," Dr. Benjamin Mays, president of Morehouse College, Atlanta, declared in a speech at the banquet of the eighth annual convention of the Homer G.

Phillips Hospital Internes Alumni Association. Stating that it would be a disappointment if the segregation of schools is upheld, the speaker emphasized that "it would do democracy no good in the minds of a billion Asiatics." THIS STATEMENT was based upon observations made by the speaker during a recent trip to India, Ceylon and Egypt as a member of the central committee 'of the World Council Dr. Mays pointed out that the old deal" was based on the. thaory that the racial situation in America could best De soivea by complete separation in every area of American life. The "new deal." Dr.

Mays characterized as the effort to make real the doctrine that there can be equality in a seg regated economy. There is a concentrated effort on the part of many per sons, he staled, "to concede the fact that Negroes should have as good of everything as whites but still should be separated. "Such persons are sincere but mistaken and he declared. "Equality in segregation is impossible because human nature being what it is, the group that has all the power and exercises it, has all the money and distributes it, makes all the policies and' administers them, can never deal as fairly with the group not represented txi as it qeais wun us own members." i HOWEVER, points of view are hastening the end of the system, said the educator: il) The religious approach which sees segregation as incompatible with the best that there is in the Christian gospel; (2) The point of Mew which finds it Inconsistent with our democratic pronouncements as found in the Federal. Constitution, and Medicine.
