Radio Free Europe Broadcasts Reports On Racial Turmoil
By AL KUETTNER
UPI Correspondent
Radio Free Europe is a privately-supported
organization
that transmits Western
"truth" behind the Iron Cur
tain into Czechoslovakia, Hun
gary, Poland, Bulgaria and
Romania.
In the course of attempting
to answer Communist attacks
with what it calls an "unvar
nished picture" of the racial
situation in the U.S. South,
RFE sent two newsmen into
Dixie for three weeks. Their
interviews, and RFE "Com
mentary" are being used for
' Cut if j eo out an'oosc the oh
6EHIN0 M6, Itt 66 OiTSfff.''
four half-hour programs
broadcast from two transmit
ters in West Germany and one
in Portugal.
A striking note about the
complete 800 page transcript
is that it skips reactions that
are more conservative than
middle-of-the-road. The agen
cy's news chief, Horst Pezall,
a native of Berlin, Germany,
explains this way:
Extremist Groups Bypassed
"Members of extremist
groups, such as the Black
Muslims and the White Citi
zens Council, were not inter
viewed. The people of the
countries we reach were get
ting plenty of the extremist
point of view from the Com
munist propagandists."
Here are samples of how
the racial situation was re
ported by Radio Free Europe:
RFE Commentary: "There
is a very real sense of opti
mism among Negro leaders
and complete cone ensus
among whites . . . that the
racial barriers that exist to
day are certain to fall."
Gov. Terry Sanford of
North Carolina: "What is
needed is a new emancipation
proclamation from the bigot
ry of the past ... the people
of North Carolina are realiz
ing it is simply not right and
moral to deprive people of
a chance to make the most of
their abilities."
Mayor Stanley R. Brook
shire of Charlotte, N.C.: "The
choice should not be too dif
ficult if we admit in all hon
esty that discrimination based
on the color of a man's skin
Meeting Scheduled
By Area Cat Club
Southern Oregon Cat club

Saturday, Aug. 24, at the
home of Mr. and Mrs. Jack
Robinson, 1215 East Main st.,
at 2 p.m.
At the last meeting of the
club conducted by Baxter
Farster, president, at the
home of Mr. and Mrs. Robert
Gilinsky, Central Point, a set
of by-laws was accepted by
the members and show plans
were discussed. The club
hopes to be able to put on a
show in the early part of next
year.
Mrs. Farster, club secre
tary, announced that she has
been notified by the Ameri
can Cat Fanciers association
that three of her cats are in
the nation's finals.
Placing from the Farstcr's
B and J Cattery was highest

Ellis D. I can't stand her
picayune fussiness.
Selma D. If not for me.
we'd be in a constant mess.
e
Ellis D. There must be
something wrong with my
wife. Shes like a machine
when it comes to the house
every cup must have a han
dle, every pipe of mine must
be in its rack, every glass
must be arranged in the right
row. Many times she bawls
me out for pushing one of
her precious coffee mugs out
of line. Isn't that a sickness?
Selma D. The trouble
with Ellis is he thinks it
makes a home look cozy if
it's sloppy. I try to show him
what a difference it makes to
keep things neat when they're
not in use. I don't care how
he throws papers around
while he reads, but what's
wrong with piling them
straight when he's through?
He'd rather squash them into
full waste baskets.
The Councili Over 2000
years ago the Latin poet
Horace described "the golden
mean," the just-right point be
tween two opposite pulls.
That's the point for which
Ellis and Selma must reach.
Right now his bull-headed lax
ness Just reinforces her com
pulsive "scrupulosity" (de
fined as an "exaggerated con
cern over trifles"). As with
most disputes, there's a core
of right on each side. Recog
nizing it is halfway to peace.
To Selma we say the general
atmosphere of your home is
more important than the
bandbox look you aim for.
Instead of yammering at Ellis
to put things away, emphasize
the joy (to him) of finding
things where they should be
when he wants them. To Ellis
we suggest: 'Fess up. Isn't
the uncluttered room more
restful than the magpie's-ncst
type? Details, the "little
things," are important - be
glad Selma watches them.
One small letter, for example,
makes all the difference be
tween inducting a judge and
indicting him, between hail
ing and jailing him. And, of
course, there was that nail
for want of which . . . well,
ask Selma.
Is legally and morally wrong
and economically unsound.
RFE Commentary: "Most
whites are bewildered by the
suddenness and the force of
the Negro drive for his civil
rights. In general, it is the
lower middle class and poor
whites that are most bitterly
opposed to granting the Negro
equal status as an American
citizen. . . "Negro leaders . . .
deplore but accept the fact
that these Southern business
men are agreeing to the lift
ing of racial barriers for eco
nomic, not moral motives."
Brought To Attention
Mayor Ivan Allen of At
lanta: 'There is no question
but that the acuteness of ra
cial demonstrations brought
more forcefully to the atten
tion of the American public
the necessity for the elimina
tion of some of the discrimi
natory practices that were
being exercised."
Mayor William O. Cowger
of Louisville, Ky.: "If you
were to take a poll of the man
in the street in most Southern
cities I know of, you would
find a lot more moderates
than you will strong segrega
tionists." RFE Commentary: "The as
sassination of Medgar Evers
(the Jackson Negro civil
rights leader) so unified and
hardened the Negro position
that now there remains no
real middle ground between
the two races. There seems to
be a fatalistic belief on both
sides that a violent showdown
is inevitable."
