Jackfc'n. Miss. (ANP) — Com-•
munity councils of uitclligcnlj
whites and Negrons to tackle ra- ■
cial problems, encouragemcnl of,
Boy Seoul troops to help reduie|
juvenile delinquency, and cduca-
lion of the masses in racial pride,
were .suggested here last week by
Judg David H. Edington of Mo
bile, Ala., as a practical approach
toward racial harmony. Speaking
to the Southern Coromercil Sec
retaries association, Judge Eding
ton said:
■‘The question is not the solu
tion of the racial problem, but
what is the best practical ap
proach to it. So long as there are
two peoples as widely di ,'crg( ni
in backgrounds and cultuic as arc
tJie whites -ind Negroes living
m Uic same area, lucre will al
ways be a problem. What is to
be hoped for is a peaceful living
tugeUier, accomplished by 'both
peoples being alert to smoothing
out irritating questions by equit
able adjustments.”
Judge Edington's three - point
plan includ'-o; an invitation to
bring community question an is-
ing from racial irritation to the
council for consideration; ac-
S uaintance of Negro leaders with
le procedure so that they may
feel cerU'n that the committee
would make adjustments within
the bounds of its jurisdiction;
careful stu^ and promotion of
education in citizenship among
Negroes.
“Some people seem to feel that
a't questions arc solved when
races sit down side by side and
have tea together,” the judge said,
and continued that he had learn
ed from reading gooks o' Negro
authors that -the Negro wants “ev-
fcrj’thing.” However he cannot
have everything," he stressed, ‘he
