the fact that Israel delegates to
the parley have reportedly been
granted Egyptian visas.
The decision to admit Israel
representatives to Egypt to at
tend the U.N. health parley pro
voked a discussion in the Egypt
ian Cabinet. Reuters reported.
I The report said that Premier Sir
rv Pasha declared that the ad
, mission of the Israel envoys did
i not imply recognition of the
state of Israel. He emphasized
that the invitation to attend the
meeting in Alexandria was ex
tended not by Egypt but by U.N.
headquarters at Lake Success.

THE SOUTHERN JEWISH WEEKLY
PLAIN TALK
(Continued from page 1)
Negroes were hired only for the
more menial tasks.
Negro boys and girls had been j
training for stenography and
bookkeeping in the high schools, i
but they came only to frustration
when they went to look for jobs
in offices. Joe Marx said we
give them equal education and
we owe them the equal right to
earn their livings at the work we
have trained them to do.
The white girls in Joe Marx's
■ office mightn't at first like hav
ing a colored girl among them.
But the way to do with preju
dice was not to give in to it;
prejudice festers and grows be
cause people are afraid to quarrel
with it. If the white girls could
meet and fete an object of their
prejudice, maybe they would
| come around to see that the
Negro stenographer was the same
kind of person as they, except for
! the way her skin was tinted.
I Joe Marx could feel exquisitely
Jewish as he went about to hire
a colored stenographer for his
office. The week before the girl
came, he brought to the office a
speaker to give a speech to all
the office help on every Ameri
can's right to equal opportunity.
It was on Lincoln's birthday. The
speaker was Marshall Bragdon
who is executive secretary of the
Cincinnati Mayor's Friendly Re
lations Committee.
Three years have passed. It
worked out all right. Not just
that the Negro girl turned out to
be a capable stenographer. (She
was promoted to be the secretary
to the executive of one of the
departments.) That was the least.
What caused Joe Marx to exult
the more was the way the early
prejudice had dissolved in his
office. It had dissolved like some
foul infection in the fresh air and
sunlight. From becoming ac
quainted with the Negro stenog
rapher. the white girls had come
to respect her. There was no
one more popular in the office
than she.
The white girls had come to
the highest degree of social edu
cation: They had learned to see
that every individual was to be
judged only by his own merit or
his own fault. This Negro ste
nographer was a fine girl and
how could her color matter in the
least?
Joe Marx felt the stirrings of
a prophet. His Jewish friends in
business must know about this.
As Jews they, too. would under
stand that the highest duty of a
Jew was to practice the ethical
! creed of his teaching. If the Jew
yearned for justice for his child
ren in employment, he must be
willing to render such justice
unto others.
Joe Marx thus wrote friends in
business. Negro stenographers
no longer are entirely absent
from business offices in Cincin
nati. Four Jewish business
houses employ them—all friends
of Joe Marx who started them
toward that way of being just
and Jewish.
Joe Marx isn't making the least
boast of his way of being a Jew
and isn't quarreling with any
other of the more complicated
ways. And if you ask me. I don't
know a better way than Joe’s
since it has to do with the main
essential of being Jewish.
