Bunche, director of the trustee ship division of the United Na tions, received the Pour Freedom: Award for 1951' at the annua dinner of the award committei at the Waldorf-Astoria Hote here April 11. The dinner, at tended by seven hundred guests was held on the sixth anniver sary of the death of Franklin D Roosevelt, who enunciated th< doctrine of Four Freedoms. Secretary of Labor Maurici J. Tobin, who spoke at the din ner praised -Dr. Bunche as i “great American and a great citi sen of the world." He said that iDr. Bunche “embodies radiantly j the fruits of the democratic tra dition, which seeks to give all men, without reference to race, creed, or color, the fullest oppor tunity to develop their bes( selves.”' Dr. Bunche is hems' honored, in part at least,” Tobin said, “for his mediation of difficulties in Palestine. That was a historic performance in itself. But its significance is heightened by the fact that it was a Negro who brought Arabs and Jews to an understanding. There is some thing to lift the heart in that joinder of backgrounds. It has a poetic justice all of its own. It shows the power of moral and in tellectual values in a world de deviled by racial, religious, and political rancor.” Dr. Bunche was chosen for the award after receiving an “over whelming majority” of the 15,000 ballots cast in the award voting i by a selected sampling of Ameri cans.
