cGPifaI Segregation
Report Aired by
Eastern DoiIieS

lNGTON-( AMP - The
91-page report on segregation in
the nations capital handed Pres
ident Truman by a fact-finding
committee Of 81 civic leaders from
all parts Of the country on Dec.
10, has already drawn editorial
comment from the white daily
papers throughout the country.
The survey a scathing denuncia-
ton Of the deep-rooted segrega-
tory practices against Negroes,
boldly charged that segregation
was not planned by the poor
whites in the lower income brack-
cts, but by the recognized leaders
Of the community as q matter of
good business"
The New York Times Dec. II
editorial backed this underlying
belief and proposed that reform
Of injustices existing in Washing
ton should have q high priority in
any federal program Of civil rights
legislation"
The Times believed that the
nations capital ought to be q
show-place, not merely of q monu-
mental architecture but Of demo-
cratic virtues and practices -
those intangible structures with
out which the marble front of the
republic means little" II recalled
that the Presidents Committee
on Civil Rights presented the
facts a year ago, and that the re-
port Of the National Committee
on Segregation in the Nations
capital, reaffirmed these facts and
found that ''interracial difficulties
in Washington do not arise In the
field OF spontaneous relation
ships"
The arguments made for seq
regation in the old south are not
valid in Washington, which is or
ought to be, not q southern, north
ern, eastern or western city, but q
national city. Its streets, parks
and public buildings belong to all
Of US; each Of us, directly or in
directly. helps support most of its
working population and each Of
us should have equal rights with
in its boundaries. There is a suit
able field here for national legis-
lation, against which no specious
plea Of states rights can be
brought"
On the side Of the opposition,
the Washington Evening Star
editorial Of Dec. IL comment
ed; The lack Of balance and
ObjeCtivity In the most recent
report on race segregation In
Washington may be explained
on the grounds that sHch quail
tiles have no proper place In q

ton Of this sort.
That may be, but their absence
tends to weaken the value Of the
report as a helpful contribution
to improvement Of race relation

The capital daily took a dubious
view Of the charge that the color
line in Washington has become
more firmly fixed than in Wood
row Wilson's day"
This report, like it predecessor,
completely discards gradualism.
But If the report is correct in its
assumption, the causes Of this
phenomenon (color nne) should
be more carefully explored. Sure
ly there is opportunity here for
some foundation to finance a gen.

Light On
Chanukah Music

At Chanukah time music can
do much to create the appropri-
ate mood and atmosphere of the
occasion and enhance the setting
for any form of celebration that
is planned. It can also provide
the opportunity for the kind of
participation which identifies
Zach and every member with the
holiday story and with his peo-
pie.
A Chanukah celebration held
at one Center made use of music
in an interesting way. AS the
group entered the room, which
had been decorated for the oc-
casion, a record played SOW,
SOW. SEVIVON, a Chanukah
melody. When the record ended,
the pianist picked up the tune,
and then played another and
another, until all the guests had
arrived. The reaction of the
young people indicated that the
music was lending color, spirit,
and gaiety to the occasion.
The song MATTATHIAS, which
narrates the Modin event, was
dramatized, and it was evident
that the imagination of the aud
fence was stimulated, that the
story had taken on new magic.
When the CANDLE BLESSING
was chanted, and the voices of
all were raised in the singing of
MOOR TSUR and HANEROS
HALOLU, the hallowed Chanu-
kah songs of thanksgiving, every
person standing about the Men
orah saw glowing faces reflect
ing the bright candlelight, and
felt close to his friends, close to
his people all over the earth who
were at the same moment sing
ing the same songs, and close to
his people of many years ago.

verSed in modern methods of
education.
These same results can be
achieved in other and similar
communities, where Jewish Edu-
cation is gradually declining.
This same story can, and should
be repeated elsewhere. Jewish
Education today presents chal-
lenge to the average Jewish COM
munity. This challenge can be
met, as it has been in Charles
ton, by far-sighted, individuals
who can see the problem looming
before their very eyes. Proper
action should be taken else
where to educate Jewish youth
In order that he may some day
assume leadership in the Jewish
community. The itensity of this
problem cannot be too strongly
emphasized. at a lmud Torah"
his always been one of the most
important precepts of the Jews.
Today, more so than ever before
should this precept be regarded
IN its true sense for it's true val
ues. Few have already realized
this and have organized schools.
Many more must follow if we are
to have an intelligent Jewish
community in the future. Edu-
cation, the beacon light, must
never be extinguished.

Test Held "Overall Fairness"
Clearly, the mere fact that cer-

subject of a broadcast to the posi-

THE test must, of necessity. be
one of reasonableness and overall

French Election Delay
Held Move 10 Sidesfep
De GauIIe Showdown
BY the Associated Press

PARIS, Aug. 27-The men who
run France have just sidestepped a
showdown with Gen. Charles de
Gaulle, who says he can do a better
Job than they are doing.
Both French and foreign OBJ
servers agree that this is the real
meaning of yesterdays National As
sembly decision to postpone local
elections due in October.
Many French newspapers echoed
the comment of the London Specta-
tor in describing the Assembly's ac-
ton as a "shamefaced decision" and
one which even in the context of
French politics is thoroughly dis
graceful"
The facts are these:
Gen. de Gaulle, who heads a COM
paratively new party called the
Rally of the French People (RPF),
has been campaigning throughout
the land for new national elections.
He charges that France is being run
by parties and not statesmen.
De Gaullists Expected Sweep.
He has said that France needs a
strong executive, not a top-heavy
legislative branch. The latter, he
says, is ineficiept because of par
tisan quarreling.
Under a prewar law, still effec-
tive, local elections were supposed to
be held in October to choose half
the members of the department
councils (ConSeilS Generaux). These
80 departmental councils have
consultative and administrative role
under the guidance of projects. The
projects, in turn, take their main
orders from the interior minister.
The councils roughly resemble coun-
ty boards in the United States.
Their members vote departmental
budgets and take part in elections
of members of the Council of the
Republic, the upper chamber of the
French Parliament. Over all of
France there are 1923 OF these
councillors. De Gaullists have made
no secret of their confidence they
could sweep the October balloting.
Communists Abstained.
Neither did they make any effort
to hide their decision to use such q
victory as ammunition in demand |
Ing a new general election. They
also think they can win a general
election, capture the Assembly and
put Gen. de Gaulle back in power.
Most of the parties now in power
seem to feel that Gen. de Gaulle
and his partisans are not talking
through their hats. Like politicians
the world over, the ones now in
power want to keep their jobs. AS
consequence they decided to delay
the October elections, probably un-
til next May.
The Socialists and Popular Re-
publicanS swung the vote. The Com
mun1stS abStained to escape any
onus for the maneuver. If they had
voted, however, they could have
stopped the poSponement. But
Communists fear Gen. de Gaulle's
return to power even more than
other parties.
The excuse given for the post
ponement was that the Assembly
members first want to make some
changes in the election system for
councillors.
Loss of Face Is Seen.
ANYWAY, the upshot is that Gen.
de Gaulle has been stalled. Most
neutral observers feel the present
regime has lost face by the
maneuver, since the average French
man is q pretty wise bird, politi-
cally.
There was still one more ironicaI
twist to the postponement. 1t seems
to have damaged the prestige of
Premier Andre Marie's coalition
government, which had shown sur
priSing strength recently.
