THIS BILL MUST PASS
The Sun-Reporter

The bottle for Federal aid in Education hos been
wooed onq and bitter but at long last the s. Senote
approved Measure S246 and sent to the House, which
has not yet acted on it. -
- The bill would appropriate s3oo,oooooo onnuoly
or about S. for each child of school ose unoer o'o'e
control to be distributed in proportion to needs OF eooh
of these states.
Since both law and tradition in mony Southern states
still monton segregated schools, these Jim crow schools
would receive federoI funds in proportion to the poPu
Ioton roto of the minority rocoI groups to the toto
nopuotion of the stote"
Perhaps, Just perhaps, this will at last insure EQUAL
+bouoh seporote education for cooed students, since
the Senote baked at having the bill killed entirely by
Southerners on the question of ntegroted school, ms
issue can, and shoI be, fought out later :,
All things considered, it is good BILL ond Vt w'll
if passed by the House, improve public SCHOOLS ono
teachers soIores for both throughout the country
and thereby ooct into the teaching profession hundreds
.of our oblest coored men and women.

less she was given Ethioia. The
Allies promised, but reneged on
their promise at the Treaty of
Versailles. Mussolini used the
promise of reviving the glories
of the Roman Empire in order to
distract attention from condi-
tons in Italy. He started the
second World War by treacher-
ously conquering Ethiopia from
Eritrea as point of attack. The
overthrow of the axis restored
Ethiopia to INDEPENDENCE, but
Italy, having mtde peace with
the Allies, now asks the return
of Libya and Eritrea as Italian
colonies"
Neither is of any real worth
to the Italian people," DR.. Du
Bots continued. 'Lybia is a
desert and Eritrea can only be
self supporting by depending on
Ethiopian trade. 1t is therefore
by racitl identity an economic
necessity an integral part of
Ethiopia"
Concluding, DIR. Du Bots stated,
eff colonialism is going to dis
appear from the world-as it
must, Italy has no need of Fri
trea but Ethiopia, has every
right to it. A colonial Empire
would only help forge chains of
explointation on the working
people of Italy. 1t could only
be a base for eventually attack
