Speaking Of the Grant Reynolds

obedience Campaign" the Editor said
that there are also political demogogs
among Negroes. People who are at
tempting to use the deep agitation
in Negroes everywhere concerning
there present and future conditions
as citizens for purely personal reasons.
This announcement Of a Civil Dis
obedience Campaign of Negroes is
evidence of Negro demagogurey, as
vicious and destructive Of good as
any ever heard from political ros-
trum in Mississippi. Greene said.
Recalling the Civil DiSobedience
Campaign in India led by the late
Mahatma Chandi, the Editor said the
situation as regards Negroes in the
United States is in no way analogous
to that of the people of India and
the civil disobedienoe campaign, in it
self did not bring about the subse-

The United States of American has

ROOSEVELT URGE

REELECTION

Washington, D. c. April l9-(Spe-
ciaD-PreSident Truman was urged
here today to take some definite ac-
tons to support his civil rights pro-
gram. In urging the president to
definite actions in support OF the
program Elliott Roosevelt said that
in the event of such action he might
be willing to back water and support
the President for reelection.
Roosevelt spoke at mass meet
ing sponsored by the Washington
chapter of the Association tor the
Advancement of Colored People. The
meeting was held in the All Souls
Unitarian church in Washington.
The late presidents son, who with
his brother Franklin, Jr., several
weeks ago started Democratic boom
for Cen. Eisenhower for President,
said the Truman administration
should make an immediate start
toward establishing civil rights by:
1. Issuing an executive order which
would abolish discrimination in the
armed forces.
2. Using its influence to abolish

ity, and local self-government in
Germany. We still believe that
Hitler and his Nazis built die
tatorship by concentrating politi-
cal and economic power into
hands that no one dared oppose.
Why then, should America ever
take a step in the same direction?
On the NO SANE educator or
Alert good citizen would argue
against more and better
education. Not only the children,
but the nation as whole suffers
when we neglect to provide funds
for school buildings and equip
ment. Our public school teachers
need better pay and better train
ing. Although we have already
made the best record of any ma
tion in the realm of education, we
can do still better.
The answer to this problem is:
educate the adults. Educate the
grown folks to have the same APP
probation for good education
that they have for good high
ways, and you will find splendid
schools in every place. State
finances are greatly improved.
Our states can, and will, spend
more and more for education.
Why run to a federal government
already in debt hundreds of bill
lions of dollars?
Federal aid to schools in this
nation is neither necessary nor
desirable. Yet, federal aid, which
is a strong step toward socializa-
ton, has received strong support
in educational circles. I feel
grateful that Congress. so far,
has passed none of the several
bills that have been submitted.
Every informed citizen should
keep alert to the danger of fed
eral aid to education. {

hood of Man. IT. great tradition, idea

centuries and more of steady progress.
At the very heart of the American
tradition as the fact that, w Mold
these truths as self evident, tx all
men are created equal, that th.- re
endowed by their creator with certain
unalienable rights, that among them
are life, liberty, and the pursuit Of

great idea and ideal touches the deep
est ard imenmost reaches OF Ameri-
can law, and the conscience OF the
American people, the editor said. No

said. have Negroes exhausted the
remedies under American law, and the
American idea and ideal in their Quest
of equality of citizenship, v.it'n
which lies his greatest hopes tor the

Saying that it was not the DIT. OF
the leader to try to give expression
to the thoughts Of the masses, but
to direct the thoughts of the masses,
and their ultimate action in the right
direction, the editor pointed out that
any acts of treason or other forms
of illegality in teh hope Of obtaining
fuller rights would only play into the
hands of the enemies of the race, and
called upon every preacher, teacher,

every leader in whatever walk OF lite

Way To Socialism
BY GEORGE S. BENSON
President OF HUdno College
SECRECY. Arkonsos

WHEN PRESIDENT Charles
Seymour of Yale University de-
clared recently that his univer-
sity wants no part of federal
grants for educational purposes,
it seemed to me high time that
educators in general should wake
up to the dangers inherent in fed
eral aid to education. The public,
too, seems entirely too compla-
cent regarding this let-Washing-
ton-do-it" attitude, an attitude
far too many educators have been
fooled into accepting.
1t was President Seymour's
idea that direct federal grants to
his institution would "imperil the
independence of the university"
Indeed, sooner or later they
would. Public school educators
could tear leaf out of President
Seymour's notebook. If federal
aid would bring interference and
control at Yale, so also would
federal grants to public education
bring control by Washington over
local educational functions.
Power of AS FAR AS / know,
The Purse body has ever
argued that control
over the finances of an undertake
ing fails to bring with it full con-
troll of that project. Surely, where
the pocketbook is, there goes the
authority. None of those arguing
for federal aid qpiH admit they
would welcome federal control of
education. Everybody wants to
avoid federal control Except the
Communists).
Yet, it amazes me that folks
would accept measures that lead
to control, as surely as dawn pre-
cedes day. We work hard and
spend tax money, to promote de-
Capitalization, local responsible
