The proclamation urged, in part, that the young people of this city return to their classrooms this fall and complete the education so essential to them as workers and citizens. The Youth Council has adopted as a project the role of urging

Urban League Speaker Before Lutheran Group VALPARAISO — Speaking before a human relations group at Valparaiso University last week, Dr. Lester B. Granger, executive secretary of the National Urban League, and a leading authority on social work and integration, said that the “sit-in” movement in the South is “one of the truly important social developments of the decade.” Dr. Granger, whose wisdom, experience and accomplishments in this area has brought him widespread recognition in the form of honorary doctorates from Dartmouth, Wilberforce, Oberlin, Morris Brown, Virginia State, and Columbia, listed three important things which the members of the movement have learned: (1) that principle can be important; (2) that there are things worse than indignities and even violence endured for principle, and (3) that there is a reservoir of good will residing in the white population. “An amazing response will come, not just from Negroes, but from the American public when social injustice is advertised with objectivity, with dignity, and with clarity,” he said. “The sit-in movement is much larger than the people realize”, he continued. He also stated that it exists in 75 to 100 Southern cities and over 1,500 Negro youths had been arrested in seven states under ordinances made for the occasion. Dr. Granger claimed victories for sit-in demonstrators in 16 cities in Virginia, North Carolina, Texas, and Maryland. Dr. Granger, who has been named to the President’s Committee on Equal Opportunity in the Armed Services, and to the Federal Advisory Council on Employment in the Armed Services, also claimed victories in 12 Florida cities and in 20 other states commissions have been set un for the improvement of race relations. “The South is up to where the North was 20 years ago,” he commented. He distinguished between restaurants and public eating places such as lunch counters. “Restaurants seem to be some sort of private clubs in the South,” he said. “But governors and mayors find in opinion sampling that 60 to 80 per cent of the white public is in favor of desegregating public eating places.” Granger called the NAACP and the National Urban League the “Big Two” in the field of race relations. “The two differ,” he said,” in their methods and in their fields of interest, but both have been the manufacturers of leadership, and both have drawn people into accepting their responsibilities.” During the weekend the Lutheran Human Relations Association of America moved against racial and religious bias in three resolutions. The conference, attended by 300 professional church workers and laymen, (1) asked for the Evangelical Lutheran Synodical Conference of North America to close two Lutheran schools in the South, (2) called for the Christian community to do its part in ending prejudice and outbursts directed against the Jewish people, and (3) commended Billy Graham for his stand against discrimination in the Christian church. The group voted to support a detailed recommendation made by seven members of the board of the association to close Immanuel Lutheran College at Greensboro, N.C., and Alabama Lutheran Academy and College at Selma, Ala., in the first resolution. • In the second resolution it was noted that there is still found among Christians today a very general attitude of prejudice against Jewish people, and that there has been in recent months an outburst of anti-Semitism also in nominally Christian communi-
