Just a few days before the Nc

where facilities are not available
for either whites or Negroes in
their home State.
Ripped OF Label.
The United States Court of Ap-
peals on April II upheld Miss Nc
Cready's contention that since
nursing schools were available to
whites within the State they must
be provided to Negroes.
John E. Ivey, jr.. director Of the
board Of control. comFented,
This test case rips off the seq
regation' label given by some
critics implying that the primary
purpose Of the program is to ex-
tend segregation. We have no Of
ficial right to acclaim or bewail
the decision on the segregation
issue as it effects Maryland; we
acclaim the courts action as it
upholds our contention that the
compact was not designed for
such USE"
(The Supreme Court ruled on
June 5 that Texas must admit
Herman Marion Sweat, a Ne
gro, to the all-white University
Of Texas Law School instead of
forcing him to attend a new
Negro law school. The high
court held that the new school
far lacked the same education
al opportunities.
Cali nine justices joined in
the ruling and also were unani-
nous in holding that Oklahoma
could not compel G. w. McLau-
rim, Negro graduate student.
to sit apart from whites at the
University of Oklahoma.)
The Gaines decision has figured
nightly in the field of Southern
education.
Took Fight to High Court.
Lloyd Gaines, a young Negro,
sought admission to the Univer-
sity of Georgia in 1888 to study
law. He claimed equal facilities
were not available in Negro
schools.
Mr.. Gaines was denied admis-
sion, but the State offered to pay
his way to another institution
outside the State. Mr.. Gaines re-
fused and carried his fight to the
Supreme Court.
On December IL, 1887, the high
court held that the State was
bound to furnish Mr.. Gaines equal
educational facilities within the
State.
That within the State" phrase
has dogged the South ever since.
Some critics of the regional plan
hold that it limits opportunity and
diScourageS the development of
schools within the various States:
that eventually the participating
institutions would reach satura-
tion point and thereby some stu
dents would not be able to gain
admittance for lack of facilities.
Regional Schools Limited.
Where, for example, a State
now has no veterinary school for
either whites or Negroes, it would
be discouraged from building one
for whites for then Negroes could
demand either admittance or q
duplicate.
The States therefore, these
critics argue, would duck the issue
by sending students to regional
schools and regional schools are of

into Federal court and almost in
variably have won.
The court process is a long
slow one, though, for separate
actions have to be brought in each
county or in each city.
Right now the problem is To-
cused in large measure on the
graduate and college level with
Negroes demanding the right to
study in the same professional
and graduate fields that are open
to white students.
Class Curbs Resented.
The Negroes are, in brief, in
revolt against the well-established
Southern practice of educating
them in vocational schools for
menial jobs.
For the South the problem is
that relatively few such facilities
are available, particularly on the
graduate level, even for whites.
To meet the problem, the South
ern Governors Conference met in
1945 and proposed as a possible
solution the creation of regional
schools to provide higher educa-
ton of the professional and COL
lege level.
The pact plan was put into op-
Grafton in September, 1948. with
a budget Of $1,736,O00 for the next
two years.
In actuality, the board of con-
troll for Southern Regional Coun-
Gil for Education acts as a sort of
clearing house and policymaker.
Funds are paid by the various
States to the board, which in turn
parcels it out to the participating
institutions.
How System Works.
For example, one State agrees
that there are 10 students who
want to attend the veterinary COL
lege of another State. estate A"
therefore will pay to "State B"
$1,000 per student for charging
that student the same tuition rate
as it's home students and for
maintaining facilities for his
training. No money goes to the
student.
The board steadily has main
tanned that the regional plan is
not device to get around segrega-
ton.
Take the case of Esther Nc
Cready, Negro, who sought to
enter nursing school in Maryland
but was denied admission because
of race.
Maryland offered to send Miss
McCready to the school of nurs-
ing at Meharry Medical College,
a Negro institution at Nashville,
Tenn, under the pact plan.
Won in Court of Appeals.
Miss McCready refused and in
sisted that the Supreme Court de-
cision in the Gaines case made it
imperative that she either be
granted admission to the white
nursing school or that separate
and equal school be set up for her.
The State maintained that it
was providing Miss McCready
with an education through Me-
harry as part of the regional pact
plan.
The board of control entered
the suit as a friend of the court
to take the same stand as Miss
McCready. 1t maintained that it

rhe Changing South, No. II
By Bem Price
Associoted Press Stoff Writer


ATLANTA, June 23.-There is
q determined battle by Southern
Negroes for equality in education
and the handwriting on the wall
says they will get it.
The Federal courts have written
that the South henceforth must
live up to its doctrine of separate
but equal facilities or junk its
segregation pattern.
In the past this doctrine has
been honored more in the breach
than in practice but the Federal
court message has been accepted
in good faith by many Southern
communities.
Nearly every major Southern
city, for example, has made an
effort to equalize teacher salaries
and school plants.
Get New Buildings.
In city after city it is possible
to see spanking new and modern
school buildings for Negroes.
North Carolina in 1914 became
the first Southern state to equal
ize teacher salaries by law on all
levels and even now the state is
in the process of rebuilding its
Negro school system.
Kentucky, long a leader in the
field of Negro education, took an
other step just recently by which,
If pressed, it could evade its segre-
cation laws on the college level.
Kentucky's solution simply
made it possible for Negroes to
attend White institutions if the
board of trustees approved. Three
Catholic endowed schools in Ken
lucky announced recently that
their doors would be opened to
Negroes.
Mississippi Joins Parade.
Mississippi, long a laggard in
Negro education. set aside in its
last legislative session an extra
$6 million for use in improving
Negro schools.
These steps are, of course, only
straws in the winds but they do
indicate that the South is acutely
aware of its problem, problem
that is only understood dimly in
other regions.
Back in 1941 the Southern
States Work Conference on school
administration estimated it would
require some $265 million at
minimum just to equaliZe the
White-Negro school plants.
This estimate, which staggered
the poor southern states, was in
terms of the 1941 dollar. The cost
today probably would be nearer
1865 million.
Enough to Bankrupt.
Various sources estimate that
to equalize all school facilities,
college and otherwise, would cost
the South nearly three quarters
of o billion-enough to bankrupt
the region.
Fortunately for the solvency Of
the South the bill has not been
presented for lump sum payment.
Sometimes there have been quiet
agreements between school Of
f1cials and Negro leaders just to
do the best the resources permit.
Where the white officials have
shown a reluctance to improve
conditions, the Negroes have gone
