Harris Would Stop
Anti-Segregation
Suits With New
Private School
System In Georgia

AUGUSTA, Ca, Oct. 81. -
(GNS)-A private school system
is urged in Georgia to "foil" Negro
anti-segregation law suits. Roy
V. Harris, klan-loving political
leander, often called the power be-
hind Governor Herman Talmadge,
suggested the shelving of broad
ened public school program, in
favor of private Georgia schools
of white children"
Harris denounced a suit by the
NAACP and Negro parents direct
ed against the Atlanta School Sys-
tenn. It's purpose is to secure equal
education for the Negro children
of the city, and to abolish segre-
cation.
The klan-loving leader predicted
that if the Negroes won, the good
white people" would leave the
Georgia Capitol, new business
would turn elsewhere and "Har-
lem" would come to Georgia.
"Why should we be willing to
have our legislature raise new ap-
preparations up to 40 to SO mil
lion dollars every year to destroy
the white race in Georgia ?" Har-
ris asked.
The leader of the Augusta
Cracker" party said that "since
white people already paid 81 pei
cent of that states educational cost
his percentage could be used to
finance private system for white
children"

Rogie Clark To
Present John
Henry" Ballad At
Jackson College
Program Nov. II

When Rogie Clark, singer of
Afro-American folk songs, appears
here on November IL, he will in
clude on his program the John
Henry Ballad. Mr.. Clark has col
lected and arranged the legend of
John Henry in six episodes. He
has pieced together the story in
song form from his birth to his
death. John Henry was the best
steel driver on the B. & w. rail
road, SO the legend goes. He is the
beloved and most popular figure in
Negro folk tradition. Time and
usage have given the various YER
slons almost the dignity of a ma
tlonal anthem to the Negro worker.
lie is the symbol for strength and
power; synonym for super-endur-
ance and super-strength. Our mod
ern superman is a sort of facsimile
for John Henry. Rogie Clark has
recorded six versions of this old
legend for Allegro Records in New
York.
The program will include Afri-
can, Haitian, Creole, Afro-Cuban.
Guliah, Greek-Freedmen, Chain
Cain, Protest, Ballads, Spirituals,
Work Cries, Chants, Mellows, and
modern numbers from the pen of
contemporary Negro composers.
The recital is being sponsored by
the jackson College Lyceum Asso-
citation on November IL, at Jack

vice is to forget it. There's no
chance"

home at Fort McNair. The Asso-
ciated Press called to tell him
news dispatches had just come
in from Korea about his boy. with
the 17th Regimental Combat
Team about 80 miles south of the
Manchurian border near Pung-

What news?" Gen. Gruenther
asked, bit breathlessly.

Charges by Burmese
Against Dr.. Seagrave
Reduced by Court
BY the Associated Press

RANGOON, Burma, Nov. GA
special tribunal today reduced
treason charges against the Amer
tcan. DR.. Gordon S. Seagrave,
making him subject only to ban
ishment for life or a prison SEN
tence if he is found guilty.
One treason charge previously
against the 53-year -old surgeon
accused of aiding rebel Karen
tribesmen-carried the death pen
atty on conviction.
The tribunal after a three-week
hearing framed three new charges
of abetting the commission of
treason by giving comfort (show-
ing sympathy to the rebels. The
maximum penalty is transporta-
ton for life, the minimum 10 years
imprisonment.
Now Able to Answer.
Under Burmese trial procedure
DR.. Seagrave now is given the op-
portunity to refute the govern
ment's charges.
Called to the stand today to
hear the charges read aloud, the
surgeon, who for Is years has
healed Burmese sick and trained
doctors, pleaded not guilty to each
count in a firm, clear voice.
The three-man tribunal ac-
cepted these three charges against |
DR.. Seagrave:
/. That he provided comfort to
government enemies by entertain
ing the Kachin rebel chief. Nav
Seng, a former Burma Army cap
tain who deserted, at tea.
Given Access to Hospital.
2. That he gave the rebels free
access to the grounds of his hos
pital. in the isolated China Burma
border town of Markham; allowed
the rebels to take up positions
from which to fire on advancing
government troops, and that he
wrote threatening letters to pre-
vent his nurses betraying his rebel |
sympathies.
8. That he gave the rebels med
ical supplies during their second |
occupation of Namkham in De-
cember, 1949.
In previous sessions of the trial
the doctors assistant defense at
torney, Peter Beecheno of Britain,
contended that DR.. Seagrave could
not keep the armed rebels out of
his hospital grounds and that he
had been forced to give them the
medical supplies to keep them
from seizing all the hospitals
equipment and stores.
The tribunal will set a date to-
morrow for the resumption of the
trial.

1t is best to put the bird back into

In such cases we attempt to bring it

Stains Reported Offer

Inc report now seems fairly well confirmed
that GeneralisSimo Stalin-in reply to the med-
alton move by Prime Minister Nehru of India
has agreed to use his influence to end the Korean
war, but only on condition that the United Ma
uonS first accept Communist China as a member
OF the Security Council. If this is true then Mr.
Nehru's efforts have been in vain, and the fight
ing will continue without let-up
For it is inconceivable that either the United
States or the U. N. as whole will agree to any
such condition. To do so would be to yield to
international blackmail of the worst kind 1t
would be an ignominious retreat in which our
own country and the overwhelming majority of
the United Nations would be placed in the posi-
ton OF cravenly reversing themselves and aban-
don1ng high principle in exchange for mess of
potCage-a deal that would permit the Northern
korean REDS to keep on with their criminal ag-
gression while Communist China entered the
Security Council to link its veto with Russia's
In any ensuing effort to work out peaceful
settlement
Stated very simply If Stalin's terms have
oeen accurately reported, then the war in Korea
must 60 on AS our State Department has made
clear there can be no hope for mediation and
successful settlement unless and until the North
ern Korean aggressors satisfy the rock bottom
condition of obeying the Security Councils order
OF June rs. The substance of that order is that
they must cease fire and withdraw to the 38th
Parallel. AS long as they refuse to do so, it will
be idle to talk about negotiating for an end to
the fighting. The United States and the U. N.
must hold fast to that position
In his last public statement on the subject of
China and the United Nations statement made
on May 80, almost a month before the outbreak
OF the current war-Secretary Acheson defined
American policy as follows: We are for the con-
tinued seating of the Nationalists, but if the ma
jority votes against us in favor of the Peiping
Communists, then we will accept the decision
and not play dogsin the manger with our veto
But today, with aggressors on the march in
Korea, it is safe to say that we would use that
veto on the ground that the question of Chinese
membership must be held in abeyance until the
Korean crisis is settled.
In sum- the admission of Red China is not a.
condition that we accept as price for
Soviet agreement to help end the war in Korea
Mediation on such terms would be foredoomed to
failure. If a long struggle is to be avoided and
peaceful settlement reached, the aggressor must
first obey the Councils order to cease fire and
withdraw. II the Kremlin were faithful to its
Charter obligations, instead of being the origna-
tor of this crisis, 1t would cooperate accordingly;
1t would not try to blackjack the U. N. into seat
ing its Peiping puppets.
