He mentioned the widening
number and variety Of profess

being opened to Race Women. The
Secretary called attention to the
Women's Bureau of the Depart

banding opportunities for employ

particular fields which are OPEN

coupational therapists, medical
laboratory technicians, X Ray
techniclans and dental hygienists.
IN closing he added, l believe

The Secretary stated that their

much of the prejudice which in

over that states law prohibit
ing persons to assemble near any
place where labor dispute exists
and "by force or violence" to at
tempt to prevent employees from
going to work.
Directly at issue are one year
sentences given Roy Cole and
Louis Jones, negroes, convicted of
aiding an assertedly unlawful as
semblage during a strike at the
Southern Cotton Oil Cos plant
in North Little Rock in 1916.
District Attorney Jack Lobran-
do, of Meridian said that Eddie
(Buster) Patton negro whose dea-
tn sentence was halted Monday
by the United Supreme Court,
will be retired at the February
team of Circuit Court.
Patton was convicted of killing
a white man, Jim Meadows.
Commencing on the decision,
Lobrando said
1T is just another attempt of
interested clements outside Missi-
ssippi to regulate our courts and
our way of living.
Asked if any negroes would
serve on the jury at the second
trial Of Patton, Lobrando said the
problem would be met when it
arises.
Patton, when told of the Sup
rene Court decision, expressed
his joy and said he had cleft

school system at a heavy price,,
says the Patriot. "The Negro
children pay in humiliation,
thwarted ambition, frustrated
lives. The white population pays
in lower living standards general
ly. With 40 per cent of the Ma
tons children and less than 20
percent of the Nations tax-paying
wealth, the South cannot afford
even one school system, on a par
with that of the national aver
age. The struggle to maintain
two separate and parallel systems
means that both are penalized.
"The entire community suffers
the loss of thousands of creative
citizens But the physical and mon
etary loss is insignificant COM
pared tothe damage done to the
cultural and spiritual life. A
community that gives lip service
to the ideals of equality, freedom
and universal brotherhood, yet
condones a set of human relation
ships that daily deny these ideals
cannot possibly enjoy a healthy
and stable mental life. A COM
munity, like an individual, cannot
live with big lie without serious
psychological results and newt

Segregated Schools Can never
be Equal.
even if physical parity were
achieved, equality would not ex-
ist. The value Of law degree,
for example, rests in part upon
the value it has in the eyes OF
the community. And the commun-
ity does not regard decree from
a small separate Negro school as
highly as it does the same degree
from a large state university
The Purpose of Education:
eff the purpose of our schools is
merely to perpetuate narrow,
traditional patterns o thinking
and acting, then our segregated
schools are good enough. But if
the purpose of education is to SUBJ
stitute scientific attitudes for pre-
JUDGE and to educate for a new
world, for one world based on our
rich heritage of freedom, equality
and brotherhood, than clearly Sc
gregation is out of place. Segre-
gated schools cannot educate for
an interested world
The Religious Problem:
Discrimination is practiced
against Negroes in the South,
against SpanishAmericans in the
Southwest, against Jews in the
medical colleges of the North.
Such segregation, wherever found,
makes mockery Of the Chris
tian religion based on the univer-
sal brotherhood of mankind and
faith in one God who judges men
by what is in their hearts and
not by the pigment in their skins.
Students seeing their parents toll
crate such schools without protest
are forced to adopt cynical atti-
tude toward the religion of their
elders"
Regional Schools the Next
Step?:
Regional graduate schools for
Negroes are rejected by the Patri-
OF. "They are not the next step
because they are backward step.
They are not advocated in the
first place by educators to solve
an educational problem in a rea-
sonable and ethical manner, but
by politicians as an escape from
an embarrassing dilemma created
by the Gaines decision
"Instead of regional schools,
states the Patriot, "the next step
should be the opening of all pro-
fesional schools now to all suali-
fled students whatever their race,
religion or ancestry; that is the
reasonableway, the economical
way, the American way, the Chris
tan way" ;
"The nation maintains this dual

In addition to protesting that
Negroes were excluded from the
Mississippi juries, counsel for
Patton told the Supreme Court
the conviction was based on por-
lions Of confession 'extorted
from him by use of force, dur
ess, violence and intimidation
Patton was convicted on Feb
ruary IS, 1916.
