Britons Shocked by Discovery
Of Color Problem in Own Midst
London HP Britons, long criti
cal of America's approach to the
racial problem, have discovered
wish a shock that they have a
color problem of their own.
Postwar immigration to Eng
land from the British Common
wealth and Empire areas has
built up the colored population
to a point where racial friction
is now a fact.
Home Secretary R. A. Butler
has dmitted in the House of
Commons that Ku Klux Klan
sympahtizers are organizing in
Britain.
Men of All Shades
It was a sobering disclosure in
a nation which banned slavery
in 1306, reacted with revulsion
to America's toleration of slav
ery before the Civil War and to
this day holds together a com
monwealth of men of all shades.
The birth of discrimination
here produced a quick reaction
Newspapers warned against any
burning of firey crosses. A local
socialist party in London nomin
ated a West Indian as its candi
date for Parliament,' Socialist
Fenner Brockafay, son of Brit
ish missionary to India, intro
duced the nation's first anti-discrimination
bill.
It is mainly from Britain's
West Indian possession that the
influx has come. They are citi
zens of the British Common
wealth and thus there are no
restrictions on entry. The situa
tion parallels the problem of
Puerto Ricans flooding into New
York City.
Come By Boatload
The Caribbean natives come
to Britain by the boatload-400
persons last week. They tend to
settle together with others from
their island. They arrive with
only 10 pounds (S28), all the law
allows them to bring. -
In 1951 there were 13,000
West Indians in England. Today
there are 80,000. Three-fourths
of them are unskilled workers.

Trades Union Congress oppose
discrimination, but have not
been able to prevent incidents.
Te West Indians have not
been able to crash into white
collar or mining jobs. British
miners are tradtionally protec
tionists and put the same ban
on Hungarian refugees and Ital
ian migrants. But according to a
West Indian welfare service of
ficial, prejudice alone keeps col
ored men and women out of of

Signs of segregation have be

Conservation of Game
Important in Oregon
Editor't note. May ; 20 to 2S li
Oregon Conservation week, pro
claimed by the governor to draw
attention to the state's wealth of
natural resources, and the import
ance of conserving them for fu
ture fenerations. To mark the oc
casion, the Mail Tribune is print
ing a series of six articles, pre
pared by experts in various fields of
conservation.)
By C. R. SHEPARD
District Game Biologist
Oregon, Gam . Commission
Each year additional thou
sands of Oregon residents and
visitors from other states take
to the fields and forests to hunt
the wild birds and animals that
make their homes in the open.
Ten years ago Oregon had 199,
000 licensed hunters. In 1956
the number had grown to over
275,000.
Birds and animals have the
same basic requirements as hu
mans, namely, food, shelter, and
water. While food supplies are
usually the limi'.ing factor con
trolling populations of big game
animals, shelter and water are
often the factors most important
to the survival of upland game
birds and waterfowl. As the hu
man population has increased
the available habitat for small
game has decreased. Lands have
been cleared, roads built,
swamps drained, and more in
tensive use has been made of
available agricultural land.
Combat Trend
Within the limits of available
funds the Oregon Game Com
mission has instigated a pro
gram to combat this trend. A
Habitat Improvement depart
ment replaces food, cover, and
water where these have been
destroyed. Lands have been acq
uired to serve - as breeding
grounds for upland game and
waterfowl, and also to provide
for public hunting during open
seasons. The Rogue Valley Game
Management Area, consisting
primarily of Camp White lands,
is an example of this type of
program.

In Sheffield this month white

Give wildlife every chance

Above all, be a good sports

Youngsters Aspiring To Television
Careers Given Advice by Betty Furness
BY WILLIAM EWALD
United Press Correspondent
New York (IPI Betty Fur
ness, who has spent eight heady
years opening doors on TV,
hands out this advice to aspiring
youngsters who want to open
doors on TV:
"Be prepared for the most
heart-breaking, back breaking,
soul-shattering experience in the
world when you start looking
for that first job. And put this in
capital letters DON'T COME
TO NEW YORK UNLESS -YOU
HAVE EXPERIENCE.
Looking for Old Faces
"People always say they're
looking for new faces. They're
not. They're looking for old
faces. TV doesn't have time to
experiment with anybody who
doesn't know the business. They
don't have time to tell anyone
haw to act or where to find the
camera. They can't afford mis
takes." '
Betty, the first pitchlady of
TV, may be the only star who
achieved success by putting all
her bananas in the refrigerator.
This month she marks her eighth
anniversary as spieler for ap
pliances on CBS-TV's "Studio
One."
"Most of the letters I get,"
said Betty as she curled ' one
purple-slacked leg over the
other, "are from people who
want my job. But I don't think
there's any field in this business
where you need more experience
than in delivering commercials.
No One To Cover
"It's the toughest job in the
business because you're alone,
More than three million new
homes were built in the. U.S.
from 1950-54.

absolutely alone. There's no one
to prompt you or help you or
cover you if you fluff. It takes
a certain kind of confidence that
can only come from feeling com
fortable in front of a camera."
For youngsters who want to
crack TV. Betty advises at least
I a couple of years' work in a
small town radio or TV station
or in a community theatre.
"Once in 'New York, get a tel
ephone exchange to take your
messages," she said. "It's a ne
cessity. Then get a list of pro
ducers and directors and start
phoning. You'll onlj get one re
sponse out of five or 10, but it's
something you have to do.
"Then start writing to every
body on the list to tell them
you're available. Do it on a
postcard I used a white post
card with a blue border to at
tract attention.
Dramatic School Suggested
"Don't bother with an agent.
An agent doesn'l make enough
money out of a newcomer to
work hard for him. But do go to
dramatic s c h o ol if you can.
They're direct lines into the
theatre.
"If you do an audition, do a
monologue. And don't do some
thing that's been done recently
on Broadway. You may suffer
by comparison. Another thing
. no matter how small a part
you're offered, take it. "
For proof of the value of that
last bit of advice, Betty likes to
point to herself.
"When I came out of retire
ment after three years, I remem
ber hammering producers for
any kind of job," she recalled.
"I was offered a seven-line part
on 'Studio One which was cut
to five lines by air time.
