South Africa would violate the
Navy's announced policy of non
discrimination and integration.
Humphrey also protested in
letters to Thomas and to Secre
tary of State John Foster Dulles.
"To me this is a shocking ex
ample of discrimination that
should not be tolerated by bur
government," Humphrey said.
"Every American soldier or
sailor ... is an .American regard-,
less of race, color or creed, and
is entitled to be respected and
treated as such anywhere in the
world."
; A Navy spokesman here said
it was not known what arrange
ments officers of the Midway
would make with local authori
ties on docking at Capetown.
But he said Negro crewmen
would not be segregated while
aboard the vesseL
May Relax Laws
It was reported in Capetown
that some of the super-strict
segregation laws would be re
laxed to permit Negro crewmen
from the Midway to enter some
bars. Capetown police said spe
cial certificates will be issued
to the Negro sailors.
Clarence Mitchell, director of
the Washington bureau of the
National Association for the Ad
vancement of Colored People,
urged Thomas not to let the car
rier dock at South Africa.
Mitchell said he received a
reply from James H. Smith Jr.,
acting secretary of the Navy.
Smith explained the visit of the
Midway to Capetown was being
made to satisfy an operational
logistic requirement and that it
is customary to observe -local
laws and regulations in foreign
lands.

Curfom Royal Lanetr V-8 in dramatic new three-tene exterior ry!lng.
A car of noble proportions, gallant and gay,
and born to rule the road in flashing style!
In every age, there are those who are not content
with the humdrum, the commonplace.
If you are one of these, the Royal Lancer speaks
directly to your heart.
For here is a car that fairly breathes adventure.
You sense it in the bold forward thrust of its
hood, the sweep of rear deck, the rakish slant of
; the New Horizon windshield.
Its beauty is not calm and placid, but eager and
alive the measure of performance that stems
from the most advanced aircraft-type V-8 engine
on the road.
And should you choose to make this ear yours,
you will have this assurance: In any company of
automobiles, there is nothing to challenge the
distinction of your Royal Lancer by Dodge.
Take Command ... Get the Thrill First Hand
