Race Relations

Indianapolis, Ind., Dec. 27—"Within five generations there will be an end to friction between the white and colored races in this country," said Dr. George E. Haynes of the race-relations committee of the Federal Council of Churches in opening the discussion on behalf of the Negro delegates.

"If the present growth of racial understanding continues the power of mutual interest and genuine good feeling will not leave an atom of race friction in the United States."

Negro members of the executive committee were given perfect equality with the ministers and bishops of the white churches during the three-day conference here. High tribute of the report of the Chicago race commission was paid by Dr. Haynes.
