Governor-Ge.ural of India wished to have daw against discrimination in the case of the Untouch- ables. The sentiment against the law was strong, not only politically and socially but also religicusly. A group of leading Brahmins, members of the highest caste, came forward and themselves broke the segregation pattern by eppearing in public places with Untouchables. The number and importance of these persons were - sufficient to make retaliation impossible, and the law was passed. If something like this were done in Washington, now, it would make the best possible propaganda. It would Jend added reality to The Voice of America, and to the President's Civil Rights program. 4 Please let me know whether you think the step advis- 1 able in Washington? If advisable, then do you think it possible? If you think 1t possible, would you be willing to take part personally? : Yours sincerely, Pearl S. Buck / | _ MRS. RICHARD J.
