Sharp, director of the University's Detroit Area Study reported yesterday that the non- white population of the largest metropolitan areas has increased by over one million in the last. decade. At the same time, these areas have lost over two million white residents. In suburban areas an "amiazingly constant and amazingly high" color division has been upheld in the past 30 years, Sharp said in a New York speech to the Popula- tion Association of America. "Most of us would probably agree, how- ever, that the major factor in residential clustering by race, is restrictive selling practices which ultimatlel are based on racial prejudice," hee added. Young Couples The loss of white residents in cities, Sharp said, is explained by the fact that young couples find homes in suburbs more attractive. Another factor Sharp cited was the erroneous fear of property de- preciation in racially-integrated neighborhoods. Non-white population In metro- politan areas has increased be- cause of higher birth rates and good opportunity for low status jobs, he said. The lower economic position of non-whites has curbed the growth of non-white subur- ban population. The Implications of this change in metropolitan residency will in- hibit the collection of sufficient taxes to meet the increasing costs of city government. Remains White Right now 93 to 99 per cent of inhabitants of the 12 largest cities remains white. In the past three decades the ratio of non-white to white in these metropolitan areas has risen from three per cent to five per cent. The study made in New Yoxk, Los Angeles-Long Beach, Chicago, Philadelphia, Detroit, San Fran- cisco-Oakland, Boston, Pittsburgh, St. Louis, Washington, Cleveland, and Baltimore revealed that San Francisco-Oakland, with a greater increase in non-white population, was the only exception to the gen- eral trend. In Philadelphia and four other' eastern cities studied the non- white population has actually de- clined. But in all the cities the number of white persons has "de- clined drastically" with the great- est dip in the 'Fifties. INNER GRATIFICATION: Goines Leads Assembly (Continued from Page 1) "Our interests shouldn't conflict. If I had to pick the organization with whom Assembly has had the best relationship this year, I would automatically say 'Panhel'."

Assembly oeileves that they have a very definite interest in safeguarding the rushee as well as the independent woman during this period." Neither has Assembly had any difficulties, working with the ad- ministration, Myra says. "The dean's office respects our view- point. We don't necessarily agree on everything, and often we don't achieve a huge victory, but at least we've sat down and have come to understand each other's problems. "Everyone thinks the adminis- tration is a bunch of rockheads. This is far from the truth. Mrs. Fuller makes good suggestions, but they're only suggestions."
