Audience Convubory Segregation Not Only Unfair, But Bad For All GREENSBORO An A&T College audience was told last Sunday that compul sory segregation is not only un fair, but “it is bad for ail of us.” The speaker was Rabbi Fred S. Rypins, spiritual leader of the local Temple Emanuel, who spoke at the Brotherhood Ser vice at the college on Feb. 2Q. He said that one of the prin cipal disadvantages of segrega tion in a community is that it interferes with vital communi cation between groups. "Many of our present. confusions,” he continued, “are caused by fears which come, only, from mis understandings.” The speaker warned that one of America’s greatest needs, today, is charity for our neighbors, instead of condemnation. The subject of his message was, “American Brotherhood” and he traced the history of re ligious tolerance in this country. “In spite of all efforts over the long history of this nation, re ligious liberty is still maintain ed,” he said. 1 He stated that much progress has been made in the past cen tury and recalled that in North Carolina, a hundred years ago, a Jew could not be elected to the State ’Legislature, nor could a Catholic hold the post as governor. He concluded by emphasizing that brotherhood means a fair deal, one standard of treatment for all men. “We must not stop now,” he urged, “we must con tinue our efforts to secure these liberties to make America safe for our differences.” Rabbi Rypins was introduced by Ralph Wooden, instructor at the college. Other participants on the program included: NEW METHOD LAUNDRY And Dry Cleaner8 Quality - Service 405 Roxboro St. DIAL 6959 Jeanne O’Hara, New Bern, N.
