Discrimination Kills, Says Cal. Professor
Discrimination is the killer of life.
Discrimination A visiting Phi Beta Kappa scholar and anthropologist, Sherwood L. Washburn, said this yesterday in a Phi Beta Kappa lecture on "Race and Racism." He is the head of the anthropology department at the University of California at Berkeley.
"Discrimination," Prof. Washburn said, "kills every day and every year by denying education, medicine and economi progress.
A ghetto of hatred kills more surely than a concentration camp," he added.
According to Prof. Washburn, the only meaning skin color and structure has in modern society is to help understand the origin of races.
"Races are the products of the past," he said. "They are relics of times and conditions which have long ceased to exist."
"Racism," he added, is equally a relic supported by no phase of modern science.
Prof. Washburn explained that "racism" is based on a profound misunderstanding of culture, of learning and of the biology of the species.
According to Prof. Washburn, for human biology to have any significance in a culturally-determined way of life, it must be within a free and open society.
"We know the roots of happiness lie in the biology of the human species and that the potential of the species can only be realized in a culture and social system.
It is this social knowledge of discrimination, of death, of frustration and of hatred which gives life or takes it away, he said.

U.S. Fights Cuban Aid
United Nations, N.Y. — (UPI) — The United States is fighting a U.N. plan to give Cuba $1.2 million, $480,000 of which probably would come out of the U.S. taxpayer's pocket.
U. S. SOURCES said that, leaving political differences aside, Fidel Castro's revolutionary regime has not fulfilled the technical requirements which would qualify for the grant.
They pointed out that the Cubans have refused admittance to Cuba to representatives of the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), the agency charged with supervision of the proposed farm experiment station at Santiago de las Vegas

which is supposed to be built with the U.N. funds.
THE PROJECT WAS approved by the Council of the U.N. special fund despite U.S. objections.
The United States ordinarily pays 40 per cent of such grants. If it refuses to help finance the Castro regime, Washington officials said, the project might be financed entirely out of Russian funds which the Soviets have blocked for other uses.
Right of Privacy Explained -able to show that the matter was privileged, or that it was published by you yourself, or that it was news of legitimate public interest, then he has a sound defense." Professor Beth said. "In some jurisdictions he can also defend himself by showing that the invasion of privacy was only through oral publication, while in the statuary states — New York, Oklahoma, Utah and Virginia — it would be adequate defense to establish that the invasion of privacy was not for advertisement or for purposes of trade."
(Continued from page 1)
Observing that the right of privacy
is less restricted in the common law states than in the statutory states, Professor Beth illustrated this by citing the successful suit in which a story about the plaintiff, the victim of a disorder that led to an excessive appetite, and a photograph of her in a hospital bed, were published under the headline "Starving Glutton" and cutline "She Eats for Ten."
