TOBIN UUDS BUNCHE
AS “GREAT AMERICAN'
NEW YORK, N. Y—Dr. Ralp!
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.
