Report, go Governor

An annual report, "Civil Rights In the United States in 1950-
a Balance Sheet of Group Relations," published by the American
Jewish Congress and the National Association for the Advance-
ment of Colored People, is presented to Gov. G. Mennen Williams
by, left to right, Sam Brown, regional director of the Congress,

system."
