But the plan also may rep– resent one of the strongest efforts toward racial under– standing yet made by a group of Mormon church members. As Dr. Kent Lloyd, 38, PEDR president and a former University of Southern Cali– fornia faculty member, noted in an interview, the Mormons are accused of racism by militant Negroes. This is because of the doc– trine of the Church of Jesus Christ of the .Latter-Day Saints, the formal name for the Mormon church. "The doctrine is founded on a, belief that Negroes some– how were cursed anciently and therefore cannot hold the priesthood," he said. ''The church officially sup– ports civil rights for all citi– zens and is against all forms of religious or racial dis– crimination," said Dr. Lloyd, adding that there are numer– ous committed Mormons such as Gov. George Romney of Michigan who are active sup– porters of wider civil rights. Mormons believe that the doctrine can be change only through relevation to the prophet of the church, the president, who currently is Dr, David 0, McKay. Dr. Lloyd and Dr, Kendall 0, Price, PEDR executive vice president, said, '' We find no inconsistency in sup– porting the church and work– ing to promote better race relations," Dr. Price said, ''We ac– cept this doctrine as some– thing we can't change." stantial profit-making indus– tries in the country have now become leaders in a nation– wide job program.
