Gans Notes Change
iIn Human Relations

PROGRAM NOTES:
Lapesa To Discuss Spanish Literature

By RUTH EVENHUIS
"It seems to me a good year for
human relations," Curtis Gans,
vice-president of the National
Student Association, remarked at
the human rights conference yes-
terday.
Upon noting the changed pat-
tern of race relations in the
United States, he pointed out that
the whites are no longer making,
the decisions; the Negro is now
a partner in deciding what, when
and how.
Gans indicated that the move-
ment is now at the point where it
can be assessed. "The drama is
leaving," he said, "and there is a
need for sustained effort over the
long haul in both the North and
South."
Continue Fight
The Southern Negro students
"will continue to fight for justice
for all in the Southern community

and will do it alone unless we
help.n ns
"But it is incumbent on us to
make their issue our issue and to
determine that none of these stu-:
dents shall have expended his ef-
forts in vain."
He stressed the need for North-
ern moral support, economic sup-
port, and most important, actual
involvement. "There must be more
than moral protest; changes must
be made."
"The local community must be
a primary target in addition to
picketing, fund drives, and letter-
writing." Gans said "the sym-
pathy movement is only a begin-
ning. We must actually fight for
equality for all-until it is a liv-
ing principle. The movement has.
started at the lunch counters, but
it won't stop until men are judged
as individuals, regardless of race.
Committed to Justice
"The movement is characterized
by the dynamic, courageous com-
mitment to the cause of justice,
he said. "It is not a question of
Negro vs. white."
Bernard Lee, student emissary
for the Rev. Martin Luther King,
Jr., stressed the importance of
non-violence, indicating that it
is "the only way to achieve our
goal."
Citing instances of physical vio-
lence against the Negro students,
Lee said "we are aware of the
price of this movement-we have
already paid the down payment."
But he added that the "Dixiecrat"
is unable to understand the non-
violent action, and unable to op-
pose it as he could violence.
He indicated that the southern
students want those in the North
to sign the petitions being circu-
lated against the discriminatory
chain stores; to participate in
demonstrations on May 17, the
anniversary of the Supreme Court
decision in 154; and to maintain
a strict non-violence policy in all
of their activities.
Any deviation from this policy,
he claimed, will be most harmful
to the cause of the Southern
students.

Prof. Rafael Lapesa of the Uni-
versity of Madrid and the Insti-
tute for Humanistic Research at
the University of Wisconsin, will
deliver a lecture, in Spanish, on
"Poesia de cancioneros y poesia
