The Springfield Plan

OF late, we have been reading
and hearing great deal about
intolerance. Religious and racial
differences have flared up here
and there. Unfortunately, this has
occurred at a time when America
is trying to present democracy to
all peoples of the world as an
ideal form of government, under
which people of different racial
origins and religious beliefs may
live in harmony.
Many suggestions for curing
the ugly cancer of intolerance
have been offered, but it re-
manned for the City of Spring
field, Massachusetts,, and partic-
ularly, DR.. John Granrud, SupeiS
intendent of Springfield schools,
to come forward with a real,
workable solution.
1t is the Springfield Plan. 1t
can no longer be called an ex-
pertinent, but an accomplished
fact, and already civic, educa-
tional and social leaders from
many parts OF the nation are
making pilgrimages to Spring
field to see DR.. Granrud and
study the effect of the Plan. 1t
has been chosen for a complete
release on the famous March of
Time" newsreel, and has been
the subject of an article in a ma
tional magazine. Coast-to-coast
radio commentators have dis
cussed it.
In brief, the plan is a very
worked-out system of
instruction and understanding of
all racial and religious groups
intelligently administered by out
standing teachers and leaders
which is gradually, but most
surely, eliminating intolerance
and permitting the school chill
dren of Springfield to live, work
and play in harmony.
When we reach the day when
he Springfield Plan becomes the
Plan - and that will
AXE long time-then we shall
.ruly have become a great demo-
attic nation.

Says Present
Tire Shortage To
Get Little Relief

December tire quotas are ex-
pected to give little relief from
the present shortages, officials
of the OPA district office in
Mississippi announced. Small
increases in overall quotas of
passenger car and heavy duty
truck and bus tires are expected
to be offset by applications from
motorists of the district during
+, the month and by the backlog
of applications which have ac-
cumulated during the recent
months.
+, District OPA director w. Z.
Holcomb urged motor vehicle OPP
orators to check their tires often
and to apply for new ones only
when recapping or repairing is
not possible.
December quotas of tires for
the Mississippi district are 20.3i8
passenger tires and 4.425 small
truck tires. Major Holcomb
| pointed out that in July Missis-
sippi received a quota of 1858
passenger tires and 7,l80 small
truck tires.
OPA officials also disclosed
that rationing of used passenger
tires still in the hands OF tire
| dealers as residue of the nearly
seven million purchased from
motorists by the Defense Sales
Corporations has been discontin-
ued.
Major Holcomb said that these
tires were removed from ration
ing because distribution of the
few remaining had become so
spotty that certificate holders,
principally "A" card holders,
were unable to locate them in
many instances. Used truck
tires, however, will continue to
be rationed as the new action.
effective December 5, affects only
passenger car. tires.
Car Shortage Reported
ALLEGATION of new cars to be
rationed by the Office of Price
Administration during December
again reflects the serious short
age of requirements for civilian
transportation units.
OPA Director Holcomb said
the quota of 35 new cars allotted
to Mississippi for the month is
about the same as the number
rationed in November. How
ever, he cited the national stock
pile of available new cars, which
