Attitudes of Whites Analyzed NEW YORK, September 12 Southerners who believe in segre gation are generally tLoughtful, pious people and are not as is sometimes pictured. latter-day Simon Legrees who do now with the law what used to be done with the whip. They may call the Negro a "Nigra” or a "nigger" but have since ceased meaning any haca or insult by it. On the other hand they believe strongly in the segregation of the races and, as might be expected, hold these beliefs for a variety of rea sons. The nature of segregation atti tudes of several typical white Southern segregationists are dec cribed in the -urrent (September 17) issue of LIFE Magazine as part of its series on the “Back ground of Segregation.” LIFE lists the following views as repre sentative of white segregationist opinion: The end of segregation will soon lead into intermarriage be tween White and Negro on a large scale. “Of all the arguments ad vanced against integration, this is the most commonly heard.” the magazine says. Other millions, particularly in the low and middle-income groups, fear the Negro for eco nomic reasons. As the industrial ization of the South proceeds; this fear will probably grow even, greater. Problem Of Standards "Many are not afraid of the Ne gro in any fashion but simply believe he falls short of their standards, whether of intelligence, morality or simpplep sanitation," LIFE says. Another major southern atti tude is that the problem does not exist. Under the theory of "sep arate but equal,” many Southern ers have worked hard in recent years to improve the lot of the Negro only now to find that Ne groes themselves are resentful of these efforts in their hope of com plete integration. Candid Southerners will admit that they cannot help being in fluenced in some part by a feel I ing any casual observer of human I nature readily understands: hav ing been kingpins for many years they are not anxious to relinquish or even dilute the status. "The South in general will also, if pressed, admit that segregation will probably end some day. But it insists that much time is need ed to bring it about. And it feels that it must end segregation in its own way; preachments from other I parts of the country will only | cause more bitterness and delay.”. Divergent Views Collectively the white segrega | tionist views presented are, ac | cording to LIFE, representative ' of that hallowed but vague insti j lution, "the Southern way of life.” ! They belong to men in various j parts of the south, following var jious occupations. Featured by the I M The Last Word By Elizabeth Davis Pittman The term “world fellowship” may sound large and frightening, but it can be broken down and defined. The “world” is the uni verse as we know it today. “Fel lowship"is a shared relationship which combines trust, loyalty, sincerity, liking, compatibility, dependency and all the nuances of friendship. In order to develop world fel lowship or friendship, we must be able to develop individual friendships. Every' house must have a sturdy foundation. This relationship of friendship is one in which we engage all our lives —if we intend and do live worth while lives. The United Nations is a picture of dependency where each country makes its contribution which will inure to its own benefit and to the benefit of the other countries. There is study, discussion, rationalizing, planning and action on a co operative basis. The Young Women’s Christian Association recognizes this need of nations and nationalities for mutual understanding and adopts a world-wide program of inter cultural exchange and in so do ing, the Y. W. C. A. serves as a link in the chain to make for better understanding and world fellowship. If we are dependent, then, upon other nations, we must understand-them to like them, we must be compatible, and develop mutual interests with them, and basically, we must trust them. These things the Y. W. C. A. seeks to ac complish in its daily program.! Its intercuHural activities are a day-to-day living - example throughout tne world of the pos sibility of world fellowship. The Y W C. A. seeks to foster world fellowship by having as its agents in the field persons who have the ability—by virtue «f training, personality and moral belief—to foster a feeling of trust in the various foreign coun tries, to know the problems ofi each country, to consult on how best to meet these problems, to know that since the days of the second World War, the inhabit ants of various countries have sufferel psychological changes which will be reflected in their attitude toward the Y. W. C. A., their specific needs, and the means to be used to meet and alleviate these needs. The Y. W. C. A. attempts to show all nations that though there are apparent differences of custom, religion, politics, and social habits in various countries, there is a basic meeting ground in the realm of Christianity and fel lowship. If a relationship has these two qualities, there is no strife which it cannot stand. The need for world fellowship is so important that nothing must be allowed to deter any steps in that direction. If such a relationship can be created through developing a strong sense of brotherhood via a shar ing of common interests, and this seems to be the course, then the Y.W.C.A. is a pioneer in that field. The duty then is placed upon all who are meigbers or potential members of the Y.W. C.A. to take the relationship which we share as a single unit and transmit that feeling of unity, loyalty, sincerity and inte grity which we call fellowship to our city, to our state, to our country—to the world! Our aim is World Fellowship and the for-' mula for success is simple and basic. For those of you who are in-; terested, won't you take the first step to support the Y.W.C.A. 1956 World Fell owl hip Program by purchasing tickets to the book review of Mrs. A. Clark Murdock of And Walk in Love? The tic kets for this event to be held at the Downtown Y.W.C.A. on Sep tember 25, 1956 are being sold at a cost of One Dollar and may be purchased upon request. magazine are: James Polhill, 34. a white-collar worker of I/'uis-; ville, Georgia; Walter Templin. 42, a factory worker in Burning-! ham, Alabama; Kenneth Cass, 50. Major of Greenville. South Caro- j lina; William McCamy, plantation owner of the Mississippi Delta country; and Marshall Joyner, 38. a sharecropper in Greenville, North Carolina. Also presented are the diver-; gent views on segregation of some of the South's leading spokesmen: , Senator James Eastland of Mi sissippi; Governor Herman Tal madge of Georgia; Ralph McGill, editor af the Atlanta Constitution; and Hodding Carter, editor of the Delta-Democrat-Times in Green ville, Mississippi. The attitudes of these public figures, LIFE says, fall generally into two camps. One holds that desegre-; gation would be an unadulterated good; it points out that the South has undergone great change in recent years and is still changing, and implies -that segregation therefore is no longer desirable or practical. White Man Would Battle For Negroes Jim Crockett to Bettlo tor Race Justice James W. Crockett, Alabama bom visionary, who considers himself to be a colored man . . “inasmuch as my skin is pink,' is a man openly seeking the friendship of and acceptance by . . . colored people. Thirty-four year old Crockett who says he has learned “through suffering," to understand the problems of co*or cd people is embarking on a per sonal campaign to destroy the bar rier against them and to obtain “full recognition for their dignity, equality and rights." He is seek ing to refute . . . once and for all .. . the myth that the colored man is inferior in any way whatsoever. A religious man (a follower of the Catholic faith and a speaker in the Holy Name Society of the Archdiocese of New York), he hopes to see that happy and bles sed day when a united humanity, brothers in the full sense of the word. . . “advance arm-in-avtu steadily toward God." Says he “If you reject a man, you condemn him to a slow death. . . In many ways, killing is more merciful, because the pain is instantaneous. I deeply feel my colored brother's heart ache . . 2nd I shall strive. . . to lift this dreadful burden from liis weary shoulders as speedily a* possible." Plans Speaking Campaign Crockett proposes to accomplish this by public speaking. This be will do on a voluntary basis. If it should seem helpful to his cause, he will try to work under the auspices of the NAACP or the Urban League, or both. He is a member of both organizations and heartily endorses their prin ciples and efforts. If it is not possible to work with either of1 these organizations he proposes to form his own, to be known as the National Campaign for Inter racial Justice. Married and the father of three children, Crockett lives in the Ja cob Riis Project Houses at 806 East 6th Street on the Lower East Side. His fellow tenants include practically every nationality in New York. His friends are, for the most part, the colored per sons living in the buildings. He can be seen frequently with two or more small boys beside him, walking along the East River or on one of the benches in the pro ject area. Has Found Rejection He admits to having been re- j jected by family and associates for most of his life. He attended j Tennessee Military Institute and , found life hard there. He served j in the Coast Guard in World War j II and found adjustment there impossible. Few people have seen eye to eye with him at any time in any area. He is a man making a desperate try to belong. He feels that colored people who have a long, bitter history of re jection will take him to their hearts and allow him to help them fight against ostracism. Crockett is the material of which prophets . . and demago gues are made. . . he chooses to be a prophet of peace. . . It is not possible to examine a man's heart and tell what lies therein. . . only time and exposure can tell that. . . Crockett himself says it best. . . “my solored brethren will soon find me out for what I am. . . whether I am a true brother and servant of humanity. . . or a big fraud. . . If the latter should prove true. . .I’ll then be the laughing stock of the country.” Rev. Wm. Pruitt The Rev. William Pruitt, 66 years, 3208 Pinkney Street, passed away unexpectedly early Tuesday morning September 11th at a local hospital. Rev. Pruitt had been # resident of Omaha forty two years and was the Pastor of the Good Shcp herd Baptist Church. He is survived by his wife.

There are times when it’s been a real life saver, too—like the day Jimmy fell down the basement stairs. ! I can call anyone in town, and call as often as I want—24 lours a day, every day of the year. All I do is reach out and lift the receiver—and equipment vorth thousands, maybe millions of dollars is ready to go to work for me. I don’t have to buy any equipment myself, nor do 1 pay extra for repairs. Sure, we pay a little more for our telephone than we used to / —though the price has gone up a lot less than most other things. But Bob, my husband, figured out that even today our tele phone actually costs us less than one cent an hour. Imagine— for all that service! That’s why we think our telephone service is the cheapest service we buy. Northwestern Bell Telephone Company
