"The Christian Approach to'
Racial Tension in the United
States," received the attention
ot 102 delegates to the third
liUUlClVUkC ttpuuaurcu uy lue
Fellowship of Religious Workers
in Negro Colleges and Universities
held here last weekend
at Bennett College. Twentysix
colleges were represented in
the delegation of students, faculty,
and administrative heads.
The conference opened Friday
night with Dean William
Stuart Nelson of Howard University
listing certain "critical
options" in the realm of race
which face Americans today.
ThiB analysis was followed by
an application to the Christian
ethic by Dr. Howard Thurman
also of Howard University.
Dean Nelson's choices for
Negro Americans were: keeping
a sensitive spirit or dulling
pain by resignation to indignity;
reaping personal advantage or
sacrifice to racial interest; support
or denial of support to the
land of his birth; support of the
military program or risking a
traitor's fate; alignment with
liberals of support of conservatives;
profession or repudiation
