WHITES FAVOR
NEGRO PUPILS

ST LOUIS According TO two
recent editorials. one by II. j. Blan-
ton, former curator OF the Uni.
versity Of Missouri, for the Kansas
City Star. and the other which APP
peared in the s.. Louis Dispatch.
many influential Missouri white cit
liens. favor the mixing Of races at
the University OF Missouri.
This was revealed after II was
announced that the law and journ-
alism departments in Lincoln uni
versity at jefferson City will be
forced 10 close down on February
because Of lack Of funds. Since
the supreme court OF the United
States ruled several years ago that
Missouri must give its Negro citi-
zenry equal educational opportuni-
ties. the state legislature is now at
a standstill wondering IL il will be
compelled to follow the course of
It's sister states. Illinoit and Kan
sas, and accept Negroes in the stu
dent body at its state university.
Sooner or later. ii has been APP

Blanton, the University OF Mis-
souri, must take down the bars and

a bad situation. When that time
comes. we predict, there will be
little or no opposition from the

public. and no more attention will
be paid 10 Negro on the campus
than is now paid to a Negro in

The issue took on added zest
when Edith Louise Massey, Negro
girl. recently filed application to
the University OF Missouri School OF
Journalism. Miss Massey, now
senior in Lincoln University School
OF Journalism, is listed among the
IA students enrolled in that depart.

Negro student has been seen on the
campus of the university. Exchange
students of color have been ac-
cepted from other countries and
have fitted themselves into the stu
dent body without any difficulty.
In any case, unless the separate
schools are reopened. the board OF
rurators has no recourse but to
grant a right that has been af-
firmed by the highest court In the
land"
AS a solution to the dilemma a
few years back, the legislature,
favoring segregation Of the races,
established first the law school and
later the school Of journalism at
Lincoln.
