Harm Golden Hits
Racism at Seminary
Speech, Moral Issue
Saginaw, Mich. — (NC)—- Con
demning racism as a “vicious,
terrible disease” Jewish editor
critic Harry Golden said here
that the U.S. Negro in 1968 must
receive a subsidy, a crash-pro
gram to bring him into the
mainstream of American life.
Golden told 1,000 persons at
St Paul seminary that this
crash program should see to it
that Negroes are placed “in all
areas of employment — at all
levels of responsibility.”
The long-time publisher of
the former Carolina Israelite
held that the Negro is still
looked on as a race apart from
the rest of the population —
and he pointed to recent riots
as a “result of endless experi
ence of continuous indignities.”
He warned that “our cities are
sitting on volcanoes because of
this racism — smoldering vol
canoes.”
Golden saw no hope for racial
peace in such anti-riot measures
as more police weapons. The
need, he saia, is more help for
the Negro—in getting a job, in
getting an education. “Nothing
short of a Marshall Plan will do
it,” he asserted. “It will be well
worth it.”
Progressive legislation was
seen by Golden as “the big an
swer” to America’s racial plight.
“Morals follow the law,” he
held. “The law is the important
thing.”
Golden wasted little praise on
the Churches’ role in the strug
gle to bring racial justice to
America. He charged that

the march on Washington (1963)
woke them up.” The moral lead
ership, he said, “has been very
weak.”
In the view of the Negro,
Golden said, there is racism in
both the North and the South—
but with a difference. In the
North the Negro is told to “go
as high as you want, but don’t
come close,” while in the South
the admonition is “come as
close as you want, but don’t go
up.”

sid said that there has been a number of priests who have sustained
serious injury in the fighting there. At present he is assigned to
placing Chaplain personnel. The red tactic has ceased hopes of win

efforts, instilling fear among the citizens. “This is still the same old
Communist tactic,”, said the priest in his letter. 34

the opportunity she could have accomplished this long ago
but it would have meant an empty classroom for a few years
when pressures demanded a teacher.
Bishop Shannon, a moderator of the press department of
the U.S. Catholic Conference, says it is desirable to have a
regional press which is indigenous to a particular region. He
sees this effort as highlighting “quality and strength.”
In the light of the recent Council with all the development
in speculative theology and scripture studies, the knowledge of
these matters are put against the development, tensions and
movements of our times.
