scores of cities. Many whites
in the South and North con

Seldom has there been an is
sue with so few people standing
in the middle ground.
Negroes spoke out vigorously
for the "freedom" thev con
tended they won 100 years ago
in places like Boise, Idaho and
Fairbanks, Alaska, as well as
Birmingham, Ala., and Dan
ville, Va.
"I do not favor complete in
tegration if it includes inter
marriage," said optometrist
Sidney Rubenstein of Hams
burg, Pa. "Our society is not
yet ready for this."
A majority of whites (119 of
144 questioned) said they fa
vored some degree of integra
tion ranging from limited to
1 complete. But 90 of those inter
j viewed drew the line at social
' integration. Manv mentioned
their opposition to intermar
riage. Opposition to any form of in
tegration was greatest in the
Deoo South. .

weren't certain about the first
means of accomplishing their
goal.
A slight majority, North and
South, called for Negro-white
cooperation on the local level.
The next highest group among
those interviewed favored the
course charted by the late Presi
dent Kennedy, who was named
often as the "best hope" of the
Negro. A third group cited the
continued militancy of the ra
rial organizations.
"Everyone talks about it but
it's the young people and edu
cation that are going to solve
this problem," said Mallorv
Carter, 52-year-old Negro who

education is the key to the so
lution. "Parents must teach their
children," said Mrs. Jane Jones

wife in Portsmouth, N.H.
"So long as there are people
living, there will always be a
racial problem," said Mrs.
Blanche Mochel, W-ycar-o I d
white housewife in Washington
state.

MANY INTERVIEWED United Press Inter
national reporters interviewed nearly 300 per
sons of both races in a survey through 50
states to try to assess the "mood of America"
on the racial problem as the year neared its
close. Among those interviewed were Sidney
Rubenstein, Harrisburg, Pa., optometrist, who
said he was against intermarriage; Mrs. Dor
othy Minor, Negro housewife of Great Falls,
Mont., who said Negroes are prejudiced, and
Mallory Carter, Negro shocshine stand opera
tor in Portland, Oregon., who said the young
will solve the problem. (UP1)

Two other women in San
Francisco discussed the inter-
marriage aspects that often
crop up in the white interviews
but seldom in the Negro an-'
swers. 1 j

of a prominent San Francisco
